Getting this whole "Midsummer Nights' Dream" vibe here. With a touch of Jung.

Life is good.

Another thought: anyone remember the mindfuckery of Spring Heeled Part 2? When Annie and Zimmy swapped? I have a feeling this is related to that. Have we seen Ether!Annie since then?

Honestly I'm just going to stick with "You suddenly understand jack shit!" until this chapter is over and we have some better idea of what's going on. 

(of course, that implies we'll actually have an explanation of what's going on by the time the chapter ends, heh heh heh)

Zimmy is probably my favorite character. I'm enjoying the surreal confusion.

Okay, my personal theory is now that Annie and Zimmy are becoming the same person and it will be so unless proven otherwise.

I'd guess that what we're seeing now is a literal dream. Expecting it to make sense wouldn't really be reasonable.

I think we're due an explanation for Kat's head bird, though.

Remember her boyfriend that turned into a crazy looking bird? And how Kat started reading ornithological books? She subconsciously identifies as a bird, at least partially, nowadays. My theory at least.

Yeah, she has a thing for birds and she loves cityface, so it's not outside reason that her thoughts are personified by a bird she is very close to.

Ooookay. That last panel is verified Nightmare Fuel. Not sure if that's an astral remnant of Jack or of Annie's dad, but either way it's in a bad way.  :o

Yeah, I'd been clueless as to what the shit is going on for the last few pages really.

Just have to sit down and read it several times all over again to try and make out the whole situation X)

I'm not sure what is going on anymore. Is it a dream or is it just zimmy?

It is Zimmy exploring the depths of Annie's psyke, or something.
