That page you linked says that there was three hours between lowering Jeanne and the arrow being fired. This page seems to imply that the recent laser thingy that killed elf dude happened practically immediately.

There are two especially artful ways to lie. One is to tell the truth, but tell just enough to let the listener jump to the wrong conclusions. The other is to tell the truth, but tell it so unconvincingly that the listener believes you're lying. I am pretty sure that Coyote is a master of both.

Rei_ posted:The one thing i kinda like about Wedensday's comic is that fact that they are really quite clearly TERRIFIED. These characters aren't really heroes, despite all their extra abilities and whatnot.. They're just curious children who want to do the right thing. I know it sounds kinda weird but to me it's more appealing that they are actually crying instead of being all 'Ghosts? Heh. No.' That's not weird at all. Superhuman, emotionless characters are uninteresting.

If you want to insult them, remind everyone what "fan" is short for, and call them "fanatics", a word with a quite negative connotation. When you say "the fen swarmed it," I think, "how can a swamp swarm anything? What is this guy talking about?"

Annie is not to blame. Reynardine bombed the metaphorical gently caress out of Annie's Pearl Harbor when Annie was perfectly willing to stay neutral, and now he's got Annie's entire metaphorical navy all up in his poo poo, and now he acts all surprised when his metaphorical Hiroshima is reduced to a nuclear cinder. He only has himself to blame!

The 19th Person posted:How does Rey know this? Wasn't he locked up in the court before and during Surma's sickness? I think it's being implied, especially from when Reynardine first met Annie and knew that Surma was dead, that this is some sort of hereditary thing, and Surma did the same thing to her mother (and so on).

It's either EE-sen-grin or IH-sen-grin. Not really sure which. It certainly isn't a consonant y like you and Elysiume seem to think!

Elysiume posted:I will defend my pronunciation to the death I pronounce it IH-sen-grin in my head. I am pretty sure that's right. Usually when "y" is used as a vowel, it just is pronounced as if it was an i. EYE-sen-grin is also a possibility. ENGLISH

Yadoppsi posted:In Jewish mythology, golems were controlled by a separate piece of clay carved in the shape of an eye. The golems body could be destroyed, but a Jewish mystic would simply make a new one and place the eye in it. Good as new. I still like this explanation, because there's no other reason for her to be so heavy. But the question I have is: how does this: idonotlikepeas posted:Tom was once asked if Jones knew ancient Egyptian, and replied that she definitely did. enter into it? I don't know much about Jewish mythology; were golems present during the Egyptian enslavement of Jews?

Tea-san posted:I'm really thinking about stopping/getting rid of my Formspring. It really shouldn't be required reading for my comic. From the quotes people post here, it seems like you're using the formspring to give out information that isn't readily available in the comic itself. You probably shouldn't do that. Just stop answering the questions that relate to unseen plot elements, e.g. what would happen if you pulled Coyote's rock-tooth, and save it for reminding people of what they have already seen and answering questions not relating to plot.

I am amused that you said "if no one minds" but then only gave us (at most) ten minutes to respond. What if someone minds but isn't at their computer this instant? Mostly I am thinking of Tuxedo Ted, who has the other version. *shrug*

I thought it was funny. And Gunnerkrigg DOES invite speculation of bestiality - it was kind of a pretty major plot point that Reynard was in love with Surma.
