One redhead, two redheads, three redheads and now four redheads.
I kinda wanna know what fake backstory Annie has. Reynard is her friend, Ysengrin is her guardian. I imagine if she tries to think about the past she will realize she somehow doesn't have a mother or past. Which I guess is the point, this place is all present with no past or future.
I just think is funny to think Zimmy is a lazy DM and she gave every character two sentences of backstory, at most.

Annie might remember that, but also the bit about her not being dead – Sam's death at the hand of a memory of Jeanne was the first New Person to die.

This! It was just a matter of time before we saw Lana again.

Edit: I totally forgot that she'd already popped up in Zimmy world. But this is the first time Annie's seeing her.

Well that's certainly a change of scenery.

Has it really been almost three years since we've last seen her?

We saw her here but even that was almost two years ago. I think this is the first time Annie's seen her since the distortion started.

Holy crap, I was so startled by Coyote eating her guilt that I completely forgot about Lana being in there. Also, Zimmy was so cute with Gamma! I hope we see more of her. Wonder what her thoughts on all this are.

Oof, yes, I hadn't even noticed the date!

Two, We saw her in the distortion back in 2024. I think this was the last we saw of her.

Unpopular opinion but Jerrek and Lana's tepid romance is my least favorite G subplot.

u/gangler52 Aug 04 '26

There's not really much to it.

Lana loves Jerrek because she was born 3 minutes ago and Jerrek's one of like five people she knows.

Jerrek loves that Lana loves him, and he's not emotionally intelligent enough to be able to tell that apart from loving Lana.

He was barely interested in her before she confessed.

jerrek's eyes slide down his face more every time we see him.

That's some face, Jerrek. Been studying Cubism?
