So... Anyone else notice the ghost-cut on her cheek reappearing? It started doing so on the last panel of the previous comic.

It's also appearing increasingly insectoid if you look closely; that second drawing of it in particular.

I think the text is a warning from Coyote attached to the creature long ago to stop it from tricking anyone.

This is Coyote we're talking about, though. He's not a paragon of virtue when it comes to stopping trickery. This is far more likely to be a trick of his than a trick from the Seed.

Yeah, I figure that he either tricked Coyote or somehow else pissed him off so Coyote cursed him so that he could never trick anyone else.
Not because he wanted to help people avoid being tricked, but because he was pissed off.

Huh; it sorta looks like she's turning to stone too.

Which makes me think it really is The Seed Bismuth, as that is basically what happened to the forest...

Which also introduces another interesting dynamic to the overarching political dynamic; a third party just as powerful as both Coyote and The Court. Which I presume is why she was taken there to begin with.

Maybe the thing Zimmy saw when she looked at Kat was the seed bismuth? That thing was insectoid too.

I thought that might have been her "angelic" appearance. She's a robot "angel", but to aetherial beings her spiritual appearance might occasionally seem comparatively terrifying.

the thing about Tom Siddell is that it's kind of hard to know if somebody is evil or not.

Unless you are hetty.
don't know about you, but the first page of her appearance i thought she was a good person/doll despite her red eyes and things like that.

i think it's because i've grew complacent after seeing robot and lindsay. for some reason robot really freak the hell out of me.

Oh man, I just love Annie's face in the latest strip. It's like, a seriously angry face.

I'm sorry. I couldn't resist.

I don't really like the song that much, but yeah. Anyway, it's great to see Annie coming into her own here. Shows that she can take care of herself as the medium.

Which is, I assume, the intent of the exercise.

Yeah, but still. I know for a fact that I didn't expect something like this, personally- I was thinking of something more subtle.

Once they were shown to be aggressive, I was kind of expecting her to have to lay down some sort of beat-down. That's the only thing people like this respect.
