I'm not crossing the water. The water doesn't run under here any more.

Re: Gunnerkrigg Court 7: Psychopomp and Circumstance
Am I crazy? I don't see this log bridge you guys are talking about. It looks to me that Y is closing the chasm all together, thus no bridge is necessary.

Annie has been handed the idiot ball. How is that even an explanation?

Re: Gunnerkrigg Court 7: Psychopomp and Circumstance
Keep in mind, he might be able to make her appear if he tries hard enough, but he can't control the circumstances. If she and Eglamore are blipping back early because Eglamore has a sword sticking out of his chest and needs someone to kiss it and make it better, that's not going to help much in the current situation.

Re: Gunnerkrigg Court 7: Psychopomp and Circumstance
Go and tell Jones, sure. But telling the rest of the Court administration seems like a bad idea if you don’t want to escalate conflict with the forest.

Re: Gunnerkrigg Court 7: Psychopomp and Circumstance
That's why Annie's going for the beacon. THAT will bring both of them within seconds, safely, and with the understanding that something really bad is happening.
Besides, Smitty may need to reserve his power for when they get there. Things appear to be going to pot rather rapidly; it may take some first class altering of probability to get them all out of this.

Re: Gunnerkrigg Court 7: Psychopomp and Circumstance
I'd also call this a good time to get Reynardine. He may not be in Coyote's weight class, but he's the closest they've got. He's also the breature/being/entity with the best chance of getting through to Ysenyote (which may not be that good, but it could be a necessary distraction).

Re: Gunnerkrigg Court 7: Psychopomp and Circumstance
I had to look it up: Eglamore gives Annie the beacon when she visits the forest here. She actually ends up using it when Ysengrin attacks her here (Eglamore says he'll get her a new one).
Since the beacon is a teleport, it kind of makes sense that she wouldn't bring it when Eglamore is with Parley... except that she doesn't have any way to contact them. Dumb, Annie.

Re: Gunnerkrigg Court 7: Psychopomp and Circumstance
Not digging the design of the merged Ysengrin and Coyote. So fanfic-looking...
But the worst was this line. *cringes*

Re: Gunnerkrigg Court 7: Psychopomp and Circumstance
I think what's going on is the same as that scene in spider man 3, where a character is given the power to become everything they ever wanted to be. But what they don't realize is, they still don't know how. Ysengrin thinks he is such a fearsome villain, but he is just the same damaged dog with stolen (borrowed?) power.

Re: Gunnerkrigg Court 7: Psychopomp and Circumstance
The Court is not helpless. They've been storing up a massive amount of Etheric power via whatever it is they're doing with the lake, they've been studying magic and Zimmy, this talk of the Omega Project shows they're up to something. They might be able to show Ysengrin how truly weak HE is. It would be REALLY irritating if the Court turned out to be the 'good guys' here, given the sliminess of their tactics.

Re: Gunnerkrigg Court 7: Psychopomp and Circumstance
It's also pretty stupid of everyone to not have any sort of communication device. Cell phones, pahers, walkie-talkies, hak radios, anything.

Re: Gunnerkrigg Court 7: Psychopomp and Circumstance
I hate to admit it, but I'm also getting an anime villain vibe off Coygrin. Check his glowing fist of Coyote powerrrr
Although I am also kind of excited to see a threat of this scope emerge. We'll finally be able to see what countermeasures the Court has in store, and how effective they are against a Coyote-level threat.Awesome OOTS-style Fallout New Vegas avatar by Ceika. Or it was, before Photobucket started charging money.

I think Tom is having fun writing Ysengrin as a pile of anime villain tropes.

Re: Gunnerkrigg Court 7: Psychopomp and Circumstance
This all feels so surreal. The comic starts and seems to be building to something that will happen later. Then it happens now. Then you expect it to have consequences later but the consequencese begin now. Then the heroes run away and you expect there to be a massive war or fight or something coming but the fight is beginning now. And the villain just gets more and more absurd as it continues on. This feels very rushed and awkward to me. Still interested/excited to see what's going to happen but it's odd.

Re: Gunnerkrigg Court 7: Psychopomp and Circumstance
Clearly the 'flaw' in coyote's gift, much like how Renard kills the things he possesses, is that for all his strength nobody will take Ysengrin seriously.
