Did Juliette's robot minion just give up Shadow to distract the Court from Robot and the robot religion? Ooooh, and also it seems that Shadow himself distracts Robot from the religion, so getting Shadow out of the way might force Robot to focus on it.... that robot minion may be being doubly devious! |

That gal!I'm nervous that that is the "something else". What do you mean? What else would it have been? |

Huh. She's lost some weight. More than that, she looks to have gone from her fourties to her twenties. Wouldn't it be funny if it were actually Juliette's daughter who also works for Court security with an Eglamore? |

Hey! You go to Gunnerkrigg Court! Or at least you're in the court at this moment. Here's a badge. Graduate from Gunnerkrigg Court, or graduate from Gunnerkirgg Court with Divine Ascension, everyone gets the same Participant Badge and a handshake. Annie doesn't get one because she is expelled from the program before graduation. I got inspired by this and tried to script a sort of military rank & organization cart for the court. Seniority goes up and right. (Gimp really should have a spell checker.)  gkc org chart.png (244.41 KB) I didn't even bother trying to use any real military or police ranks, though if the court were to use such, they probably would be based on medieval French ranks. As you can see, the court has a relatively flat hierarchy, so pretty much everyone working as a special mission critical inner circle researcher would be an "agent". I estimate that in full war strenght, the total force of the court would be about 3 divisions, or "one army" under The power of sir James Eglamore, plus additional division formed from the Home guard and one regiment of Court agents, directly responsive to the school administration. Before the recident military buffs of the board will launch an offensive against my unrealistic rankings, I must beg for mercy, i was only trained as a radio operator. |

I wonder, if any one could deduce Coyote's tooth was used, in getting Shadow 3D? I doubt it, because there aren't many who even know about Coyote's Tooth. |

Something I just noticed wrt these guys' interest in Kat's research:
Eglabot seems to have the same level of mobility as Robot's 'standard' body. Is it being copied? If so, does Robot know or care?

Kat said that she cobbled Robot's standard body together from spare parts, so it is a common design. |

Or at least a design made from common components.

I remembered that the two mysterious figures who visited Anthony while he was recovering from his trials in the wilderness (http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/?p=1558) did not wear the Court agent badges. But the figures are not drawn in enough detail to really say that aren't wearing the badges. All that is really evident is that Tom didn't want to hint at the identity of the mysterious figures.
Maybe the Court agents are not part of the Court faction that threatened to expel Annie, but all I can really only point to two thngs:
- The Court agents we've seen openly wear badges and Tom has yet to tie them to Anthony.
- The sixth treaty strongly implies that Kat joins the Court agents, which makes more sense if they are not the faction that is out to get Annie.
