Anyone else feel like Annie's pose in the "do something about this" panel has a lot of photoshop potential?

Muut is still upset with Annie for squishing that ant to get his attention.

Maybe the big growth of this arc is annie accepting their formal job offer in exchange for healing smitty?

I'm going to assume now that Parley's ability to control her teleportation really does rely on Smitty's help because otherwise I can't understand why they're still here. Then again I guess the last few pages have probably taken less than a minute so I can understand if they haven't instantly bipped away just yet. We have the benefit of multiple days to process the information going on

# ? Jan 23, 2017 19:29 |
|
They owe nothing because obviously Smitty is not dying and in need of their help. This is the only logical answer.

cant cook creole bream posted:Come to think of it, who exactly did all the final recordings for Jeannes clients? How deep does this go? It's possible that she didn't care about the spirits of the dead, despite killing psychopomps. Possibly despite not really being living creatures they're close enough for Jeanne.

|
There's also the possibility that guiding people into the ether buys psychopomps/others extra time in existence. It would be a reason why they fight over dead people. Smitty may have bought himself extra time just by being there. There's nothing to back that up other than I want Smitty to be okay.

|
There are two options 1) Smitty is not dying so they don't have to do anything anyway 2) He is dying in which case it's literally going against their entire existence and purpose to stop that

Did anyone else read it as them all speaking together? That's how I'm hearing the dialogue. OhFunny fucked around with this message at 08:41 on Jan 24, 2017 |
# ? Jan 23, 2017 20:32 |
|
Yes. At first, I thought it was Muut but then I saw that the speech bubbles didn't actually come from anywhere.
|
# ? Jan 23, 2017 20:35 |
|
The lack of arrows on the dialog boxes supports that interpretation (I've been reading it that way as well).
|
# ? Jan 23, 2017 20:35 |

I thought it was just Mutt since he is highlighted against the rest, but it is extra creepy that way.
|
# ? Jan 23, 2017 20:51 |

I thought so too. But do you think they speak perfectly synchronized, or with ever so slight time differences to make it sound like an echo? I can't decide which one would be creepier.

Reading on from there, Annie should have picked up some negotiating tips from Jones.

I'm betting they don't owe her anything because she got/wanted something out of the deal whether she knew it or not as is implied here: http://gunnerkrigg.com/?p=1336

Someone's about to get a very important life lesson, but I'm not sure if it's Annie or the collection of psychopomps.

ok all defenses of the chapter aside I am a... bit confused why Parley doesn't just... go? I mean sure maybe she does need Smitty up and running to teleport but she hasn't even tried, nor was that made clear to us maybe too far? or... ok, mayyyybe- Parley didn't want to teleport him right away, because she feared hurting him more/he had a ghost dagger in him that could mess up teleporting + she didn't want to abandon the others while Jeanne was still a threat then the ghosts leave although Parley wants to stick around juuuust to make sure and Smitty seemed stable enough... until the ghost dagger fades out and now he's gone from wounded to critical and I guess Parley's just waiting for the A-OK from Annie to peace out? Except Annie's wasting time trying to plead with essentially Death and they really do not have time for musical combat right now
