And refined in the BLUH BLUH HUGE BITCH refinery to remove some of her more... quirky aspects.

I'm okay with her as a character, because instead of her coming from some moral-neutral background and being evil, she could just be that way from her very nature which is how I'm interpreting it.

Huh. I'm interested in finding out what exactly the "mark" means to the spirits. (This is in response to Hetty taking offense at Reynard showing off his mark on his forehead in his larger form.) I just thought it was a part of them, there hasn't really been any specific mention of the marks before, has there?

I believe it might be mark that they're connected to a human, which would irk Hetty greatly from what I gathered.

Which in Renard's case, is the alchemical symbol for antimony.

Makes sense given it changed when he possessed the toy. His old symbol (or at least transitional) being simplified mercury (simplified compared to other mercury symbols Tom has used).

Also, fun fact on alchemy.  Mercury is not only considered to be the first metal from which all other metals can be made, but those different metals (i.e. gold) could be produced by altering the amount of sulfur contained within the mercury.  Given that Hettie's symbol appears to be sulfur, that's most likely not a coincidence, especially given that both seem to be tricksters, but Hettie's far more rebellious and ill-considering of her imprisonment than our favourite fox. 

EDIT: No, wait, it's phosphorus.  Drat, and that was such a tidy link between the two.

With every...single...page, Hetty becomes more and more hate-able. I don't know how she does it. Just when you think she's super terrible, she reveals something else about herself. I'm hoping she leaves the series being melted into a giant vat of doll-goo.

I hope she dies through decidedly more ironic ways than that. Most likely she'll die by whitefoxdude following one of her advises, though against her.

Yeah, this latest one kinda pushed her from "charmingly psychopathic kewpie demon" to "raging hell-bitch". :-/


It's one thing to resent imprisonment and look for a way out, but it's a whole different level of monster to do so against someone who doesn't even know you're their thrall.

Even Renard is like WTF?
