Next we find out that she killed Adam's sister because her contract expires when she has no owner. Thus the "how was I supposed to know..."

her little "accident"
Whatever made you think that? Surely, you are not suggesting that dear, sweet, innocent Hetty would resort to murder to advance her own goals? :P

I had to flip back a page because I thought I've missed one, but I didn't.

Sudden story transitions always get me. And now angry-Hetty at the moment, too!

So the whole thing with Hetty has made me go take a look back at some of the earlier archives when Reynardine first showed up to get some more insight into the whole relationship thing. I haven't exactly found much especially since it's very hard to tell if Reynardine does things because of the contract or because of his love for Surma (for example when he jumps in front of Ysengrins attack). I did find one nice tidbit though, which is that if somebody forcefully takes away a contracted spirit then it voids the contract.

Also, SO MUCH SYMBOLISM! Reading through the old archives I've caught so much symbolism present that I never noticed before! It's amazing just how much is there, Tom is working symbolism in at the level of some of the "Great" novels that they make you read in English classes. It boggles the mind. :o

To be fair, it's easier to throw symbolism in a comic, I'd think.

Well, that kills all the theories that Reynard actually intended to enter the doll...

That just seemed more like wishful thinking then a theory.

How would you ever get the idea that he didn't intend to take her body? No amount of wishful thinking could deny that he intended to kill her at first.

I totally agree. Her face in the last panel is simply priceless! Burn, Hetty, burn!
(Someone in the comments section said that Reynard should take over Hetty's body as an awesome plot twist. I don't think that will, and probably can't, happen, but still an awesome idea. xD)

EDIT: And I totally didn't realize there was an update till after I posted that. FIRE~

Hetty's going down. Reineke is all about insidious, slightly ironic murder.

Hah!  I knew he regretted trying to kill Annie.  The hint was in how he never said what he regretted about that day. 

Burn, Hetty, burn!
