Bonus page candidate: The Norns announce that there is a price to be paid for borrowing their powers. Kat successfully negotiates a settlement of the debt with used manga and video games and a vast quantity of pirated anime.

Kat will succeed in saving Annie, at which point the Annies will become four. We have been warned. |

Jeanne stares at the Annies through the time window; and then she crosses over.

I picked number 3, just because I hope it will happen. Jeanne stares at the Annies through the time window; and then she crosses over. I imagined a tiny Jeanne awkwardly crawling through the Tic-Toc's beak, and I'm loving it! Sounds like a crossover with Cube Escape. |

I know people like the drama of the back to the future sort of failure, but the way things have been, it seems like we'll see the fall from this perspective with all of the other Tic Toc instances, and this resolves normally with more loops with Kat understanding it's been done so she's doing. I think the real drama would come after with some new encounter we haven't had insight into.

I voted for "Jeanne Kills the Tic-Toc," because I think we'll see Kat sending the Tic-Toc back multiple times, each time seeing all the other Tic-Toc instances helping out, until *SLICE* Annie gets dumped in the river just as the Tic-Toc instances carry her far enough away that Jeanne won't do the same to Annie. We might get a bonus, though, because the Tic-Toc that washes up on the shore might not be controllable anymore, but it might still be viewable. Another possibility is that Jeanne sees the two Annies looking on via the Ether ( Eily 's idea), then crosses the river and nicks that Annie on the cheek with her sword so she can tell that one apart from the other ones. (edit: or perhaps as a dueling scar to indicate her respect that Annie would survive into the future and therefore that Jeanne couldn't kill her) Or, hey, who knows? Maybe the first time through, Kat sees Jeanne coming, panics, and sends the Tic-Toc into prehistoric mastodon times to get away. Where it meets a nascent Coyote ... |

I don't know what will happen but I am curious if we'll find out why Jeanne crossed the river. She could cross the river yet Muut claimed otherwise, and Jeanne spontaneously left the scene inexplicitly in a way that I think is inconsistent with how the Ether is usually portrayed. Maybe it will receive its explanation. I voted that they'll see something Annie claimed never happened. Neither Annie is supposed to belong there, which I interpret as them belonging to different timelines. Timelines that probably split off at the moment we're about to see. |

Jeanne was confined to the Court side of the river, but Annie's presence on the Forest side without Coyote's or Ysengrin's permission temporarily made the status of the area immediately around her ambiguous enough to allow Jeanne to cross.
That's my theory anyway.
(It would also mean that if the Court were to launch an invasion of the Forest, Jeanne could join in. Doesn't that sound like something the Court officials of her day would do?)

Yeah I'm surprised this isn't a poll option actually, since it's already been demonstrated that in the Gunnerverse, events appear to be causally locked "12 Monkeys" style. |

I thought of another possibility: everything goes as we expect, and it's the Norns who say "*That's* not what happened!".
I do like some of the speculation about Jeanne, though.

I voted for "Other" because I am pretty sure we're about to see Boxbot's origin story.
