>>90732763Hooray! It was the worst chapter ever! And I genuinely love this comic but like, goddamn. Annie deserves to be called out for some shit but this was just unfairly brutal and also just, badly out of character for Red.
She didn't need to be there, she AND Aliyu both knew about Jeanne from the exact same point Annie did so she shouldn't talk like neither of them weren't aware of the danger. Just because they can die for proper this time doesn't mean shit either.
Plus, if Red knew all along that they were all getting into a situation with Stabby McStabsalot all because Annie promised Aliyu a name, how come she never called that out before?
Even if Annie is asking Aliyu to hold a ladder while Annie replaced a lightbulb with the promise of giving Aliyu a name, it's STILL disrespectful because Annie doesn't have to give up anything for the help. Red definitely would have known this from the start because she was a package deal in all this. Annie could have been called out on that from the start and all of this could have been avoided.
Again, everything everyone else was pointing out as well.
Parley was moved by what happened to Jeanne while also wanting the challenge, Smitty is also a package deal as well as being helpful and also, he's the court medium. He's got to get involved with shit like this anyway.
And Kat is Annie's best friend, she and Annie know Jeanne's story and they were both equally invested in solving the problem for their own reasons. And also Robot was there for Robot's reasons.
Everyone's motivations were their own and valid. Annie could and should have been more aware of how much she was dumping on everyone and how her favor was uneven in Aliyu's case, but other than that, this was unfair and lame.
I miss Rey. Rey's reasoning is usually pretty sound, he should have been involved with the mission, even if he still belongs to Kat, he could have helped.
