Panel 4 Kat is extremely relatable for me, but at least she has now two friends who can talk her out of holding those feelings and troubles secret.
Also, love last panel where it is left unclear which Annie is speaking. As if they are speaking as one Annie.

Yeah, but with the wrong reasoning. It's as much a Kat problem as it is an Annie problem. Paz tried to make it all into an Annie problem, cause she jelly.

To me, it looks somewhat like Kat is a little overwhelmed at basically getting this speech from two of her best friend. Maybe I'm just projecting but it'd be a lot harder for me to ignore my friend's attempt at an intervention when they have twice as much of themselves to let me hear it.

You don't have to invent time travel all by yourself, Kat! I'm sure we can find somebody else that's done it already!

I'm not sure which delivery would be more disconcerting: - Annies saying two separate things simultaneously. - Annies talking in sequence - Annies talking synchronously (We are the Antimony. Resistance is futile. You will be annsimilated)

Also, Kat... Annie literally got you involved in fixing a problem which she pursued entirely of her own volition. Yeah, feeing Jeanne was the right thing to do and you were a willing participant, but Annie got you involved in something that was originally just an obsession of her own. I think Annie owes you a problem or two to get drawn into.

Last panel:
Yesss. Finally, it has been said.
And, Kat's methodical approach could work very well combined with Annies' more intuitive one.

Yeah, I agree Kat is overwhelmed. I also believe the same counts for the Annies too. It is also a lot what Kat has said to them. Makes for an emotionally charged situation.

I think her reasoning was pretty decent, Kat was/is worrying so much about Annie that it is affecting everything she does, while Annie doesn't care or care to find out how Kat is feeling and often does things without thinking of long term consequences, leaving Paz to pick up and try and stop Annie from making Kat upset. Although Paz's solution of trying to force Annie to stay away from Kat was obviously massively flawed and never going to work.

Antimony may not have perceived it but she's been a bit of a project friend in the past. In that last panel they are asserting herselves as Kat's actual friend(s). I think the tilt represents the importance of the shift Kat feels as she recognizes that Antimonies feel the same way towards her as she does towards them.

Although Paz's solution of trying to force Annie to stay away from Kat was obviously massively flawed and never going to work. I think all of that is assumption on Paz's part. Annie, it very much seems to me, is under the impression that Kat will be upfront with her if there is a problem, so if Kat hasn't said anything then there is no problem. Obviously this is a flawed approach, as evidenced by the last two chapters, but theoretically this is a perfectly normal way to approach a friendship. Plus, it's not like Annie hasn't been there for Kat before, like with the Diego situation, it's just that in previous instances she was there with Kat when the problem occurred so she knew to look for something. And considering all of the times that Kat has told Annie she needs to share her problems and be upfront with her, there is very much a lot of hypocrisy on Kat's end here. Normal hypocrisy, I'm not judging Kat this is something we all do, but hypocrisy nonetheless. Making this all out to be Annie's problem is exactly the type of thinking someone like Paz would do because she can't self-reflect.

I think Annie owes you a problem or two to get drawn into. I would think those two bolded statements negate everything else that follows. Also, let's not pretend Kat wasn't devastated when she found out what Diego did to Jeanne. Kat went through a whole emo phase over it. This feels like a common misconception I read here because of that Red chapter. This was never just Annie's obsession. Kat, Parley, and Andrew got involved not just willingly, but enthusiastically.

Wildspec: They will become increasingly more like this until one day Annie will wake up and be just one person, and it will not be possible to claim she is just Annie C. or Annie F. This will probably not happen, because it would also mean, the timeline where Annie never returns from the forest will stay that way which sounds a bit too dark for this comic. It's so unlikely, I'm not even posting this in the wildspec thread.

"I" not "we"... Annies, could you act a bit less "of one mind" on this? I don't think it's helping.

Unless not only the Annies but both timelines start converging! Keep an eye for other characters experiencing déjavùs, dubious memories, memory gaps, and other Mandela effect shenanigans that might imply their counterpart consciousness merging (yeah, I agree this belong in wildspec)

That would make everyone but the Annies the fusion of two identical selves.

That would make everyone but the Annies the fusion of two identical selves. Right. But also there's the possibility that the Annies are a single continuous being shifted back in time and interacting with herself with no multiple timelines involved. Clippy didn't necessarily confirmed to be multiple timelines, just that there's normally only one but powerful beings are capable of creating more for their own reasons (in fact, when asked about a timeline in which Annie never comes back, they specifically say that they "don't know the circumstances of her case"). So Blue Annie was dismissed by Loup, 6 months later another version of herself showed up, and at some undetermined point in time she could be abducted by Loup and have her memories erased to become Green Annie and emerge from the forest 6 months after Blue Annie. That would close the loop with no need for multiple timelines and no paradoxes. Then add some shocking revelations being capable to overcome Loup's memory altering abilities (which are far from perfect, like all other Coyote inherited powers) and you have Green Annie subconsciously remembering and physically reacting the same way she did when she was Blue Annie! Disclosure (about my previous comment): I do not advocate for the realness of the Mandela Effect and am only willing to discuss such things in the realms of fiction
