Hmmm. For such a cosmic chapter everything feels a bit... flat. Is anyone else feeling that? No sense of high stakes and, as such, little emotional pay-off. Not even a mild curveball to things as we think we know them. I steeled myself for the heart breaking scene(s) of Kat seeing Annie(s) fall to her/their death. Kat easily creating / looping in the additional Tic Tocs and saving Annie with the first attempt does feel a bit convenient. Maybe the bonus page will show Annie(s) plunging to their deaths.

Coyote's power level is MAXIMUM. We all expected it to be at least over nine thousand, didn‘t we? Hmmm. For such a cosmic chapter everything feels a bit... flat. Is anyone else feeling that?

I doubt that. The Tic-Toc was always part of the timeline, and Annie never died. It seems obvious to me at least...

She worded her questions wrong for who she's talking to. She didn't ask if she saved HER Annie She did! The loop is closed and stable. There aren't any Kats in other timelines grieving for Annies that fell off the bridge and couldn't be saved Of course this doesn't solve the issue of that other Kat in the timeline were Loup whiskered Court-Annie from. But one problem at a time... There would be other Kat's who didn't since Coyote confirmed to been watching he could have flicked the bird before then when they dove. Also could have been a time he saved her himself and kept her on the forest side, etc etc

Or am I getting lost again?

(Still I assume Clippy was right.)

Well, they're with Temporal Affairs right now, so maybe this is the time?

For that matter, we don't know if Clippy was telling the truth; we've seen a few cases of etheric beings engaging in falsehoods (the ones who met with Anthony, for example), and maybe Clippy was similarly speaking deceptions for some agenda.

Well, they are reclusive and see you "by appointment only". (Damn, I've been away for that long? Sorry for the huge delay in answering) >_<

Dunno. It'd be just like Tom to leave the thing hanging and let the readers connect the dots.
