Ooh, Zimmy's pissed.
Okay, so it's one thing to tell Zimmy you're using her as a battery... but thinking Zimmy is perfectly OKAY with it?? How deluded *are* these witches!?
We found the weak link!
An endless well of power How considerate of Jenny!
Is Zara doing this on purpose or is she just stupid?
That's the Zimmy we all know and love (fear)!
Zara is either stupid or insane. Or maybe she thinks the "girl-talk" is just between them and not anybody else? -But it looks like Zimmy has heard enough of this confidential information.
Is she being intentionally obtuse or is the stress of the moment making her ignore the very obvious warning signs to shut up?? What possible benefit could there be to her infuriating Zimmy??
hmm Zimmy's not allowed to know all that stuff, I guess
Zimmy does not seem to know these things, actually. In fact she seems *increasingly upset* she did not know them until *right just now.*
Looking back, it makes total sense that she did not know about it. Why else would you be hiding from her in the first place?
clearly she does not
I don't think Zimmy knows about it.
FINALLY! AH ha ha, I can't wait to see what's next. ???? If she's aware of it, she can probably find the connection and eliminate it, right? I look forward to seeing these witches go down without their aetheric Lithium Battery Human, Zeta, to recharge their magic tricks.
No, I don’t think she does, probably because that could contribute towards her potentially wanting to leave if she suspected it, so in addition to her guilt, Coyote has been helping himself to that as well, because she CLEARLY doesn’t like the idea of being used as a battery even if it’s not hurting her. Annie had her pegged right that much at least.
It was nice knowing you Zara! Adios
Grrrrrr
okay... so we know this one is a good manipulator so.... what the hell is her angle here? Like previously she convinced Zimmy she was useful... and... now it looks like she's triggering zimmy to go on a rampage.... against her own group. Like... previously she seemed to be keeping Zimmy firmly pointed at Kat, but now she's just pissing her off.... to what end?
Too dumb to live
Spoiler: she did not
Dear Zimmy Zims should not have just blown him off with a simple "Oh you were there too LOL?" way back when. I wonder if part of her trouble is this problem, times one thousand. How many times has she immediately ignored people and things wandering in and out of her power, and how many times have other people or things done something with or about that?
So, when frumpy Jenny with big glasses saw the white spider in Jack's head, she saw her opportunity. She's just been using Jack all this time as a tool- a conduit to Zimmy's power. Jenny is truly evil!
oh i missed this zimmy expression LOL
Leeches.
Geez remember when Annie copied Kat's homework for a year? At least she didn't let an etheric spider grow on a boy, dress up as that boy's crush, and become that boy's girlfriend FOR YEARS all so that she could use him as a power syphon. Gosh I hope Zara is backstabbing Jenny right now. Even if it's for selfish reasons. I want the girls to be fighting.
So the witches are treating Zim as a battery/perpetual aether engine to supplement their magic. Don't think Zim would be happy to be used like that. Are they aware of the costs?
Those are no witches. They are warlocks.
“I’m sure you know all about it!” Are those her final words? I am curious if Zimmy now incinerates her. Way to go girl - in one page you have declared the entire Jenny coven as ‘foe’ and Zimmy is probably going to hunt the lot of you down. Wishful thing in my part?
This is one of those pages that makes me smile real big, but not in a cute way. More like a "yes... Ha ha ha... YES" kind of sickos way. I'm excited to see what Zimmy does next :)
What is her agenda now!? To usurp Jenny as coven leader?
Well...if it means Zimmy can get less prone to the horrors of her own mind, maybe it's not a bad thing? Who am I kidding though, Zimmy is sucking the life out of the etheric creatures just to keep her world. The question is why Zara so happily telling her about Jack and Jenny again. We know Rosa was especially curious and unhappy about Jack's behaviour and refusal to speak about Zimmy's secret, so perhaps two friends are working in unison here? To basically make Jack and Jenny the main scapegoats, at least at first, and then move the manipulation deeper.
There we go, near-confirmation Noa's strength rune is being supercharged by nigh-infinite power. Also no Zimmy! Don't be played! Stop using linear logic just because you can and instead think at right angles to her!
"Yeah, we have no problem using people like that."
Also, again, in case it wasn't obvious - Jenny never cared for Jack romantically, she simply wanted his access to Zimmy, that's it. I mean her complete indifference mixed with incredibly weird and giddy acceptance towards him being in love with Zimmy was a dead giveaway already, but still. And she started thinking things through early and quickly, her makeover was an attempt to feed his obsession with Zimmy - Jenny did everything in her power just so Jack never truly moved on from Zeta. Otherwise he might have severed this unhealthy connection, I presume. And I'm pretty tired of the fact that Gamma seems to be so passive in this current scenario. I just hope she won't turn up at the last moment like an all-knowing Goddess from the machine, this role is reserved for Kat.
Zara, when you *assume* it makes an *ass* of *u* and *me* so unless you start spinning this real fast you just screwed your coven by telling Zimmy you're using her as a battery just like Annie thought the Court wanted to do (if they could've they would've especially if they knew how guilty she felt "you don't want Gamma get hurt or even killed, right? This will protect her and everyone around you"). • "The connection Jack still has to you" Does Jack know? Jenny's apparently been using him since they were *12*!
Uhhhhh… Zara, you shouldn’t be leaking this information to Zimmy…
A connection? Not just his fantasy of being in love, but something real like those spiders?
Jack himself doesn't know, does he?
Jack’s bond with Zimmy is more about taking than giving and his circle of “friends” encourages this sort of behaviour.
Nope. She does not.
Zara is soooo oblivious it is a delight!
Well, the others might be able to tap into this power source too, hypothetically speaking
Something tells me that she does not, in fact, know all about it.
...Does Zimmy not KNOW she's Zimmy right now? =o.O;= Whose "dream" are we experiencing, here?
This is assassination attempt.
im thinking she did not know all about it, actually
Huh. I wonder if Zara is intentionally throwing Jack and Jenny under the bus - maybe she's had a change of heart, or more likely, a coven built of power-hungry people inevitably is gonna want to limit the competition. Or in other words: There Can Only Be One Evil Witch
Or, second thought: Zara genuinely thought that Zimmy knew all this and was a willing participant in the whole "battery" plan. Which raises a lot of questions.
Might have been a good time for her to open her eyes and read the room.
Is that why she's dating Jack?? If so than it's not cool, Jenny... not cool.
Bro that's hilarious. The other witches just assumed Jenny got Zimmy's consent before this whole thing started.
Why do i get the feeling Jenny's team isn't as cohesive as she wants then to be.
“Oh you know, we’ve been using you as a battery. And we’ve fetishized that into a weird parasocial relationship that you had no knowledge of. And we’ve taken it upon ourselves to make decisions for you and kill people on your behalf….why do you look mad?”
So that was Jenny infinite energy source. Pah! No finesse at all.
I can't tell if she is trying to manipulate zimmy or if she is just that oblivious to how pissed zimmy is and just painted a target on her friends attempting to hide from her. Like a game of hide and seek where your friend gets caught and says "dang guys we're caught!" And pulls you out of hiding too
“Oh, our biggest secrets? Sure! What do you want to know?”
“Oh, our biggest secrets? Sure! What do you want to know?”
Zara's said too much. We knew - Jenny's thesis work on Zimmy and Gamma showed her the well of power, and then she spread it around to Noa and the group - but Zimmy didn't. Which is fair, since her existence was too painful to notice the little complication.
...ohhhhhh dis not gud. :(
Oh :( This is the only reason Jenny is dating Jack, isn't it
zimmy has been hijacked
Someone’s steaming mad. Can’t wait to see the blow up
Yeah, sure she knew about that...
She did not, in fact, know about it.
Oh so she's just dumb lol
Gurl! You just don't know when to shut up. I can assure you that she (Zimmy) knows all about it...now. Now the question is whether Zara is intentionally baiting Zimmy now that Zara has finished whatever etheric contraption she was building.
Cat+bag=let out. Big woops Z girl! Now it gets really interesting. I thought there was something cursed about young Jack. The Witches just leveled up in villainy.
Zimmy's gonna eat y'all when this is over
We're just stealing a little of your energy to power our magic, you're cool with that, right? Of course you are.
Has Zara been hit with the "overconfident (dumb) villain exposition" bat? Does she want Zimmy to go after Jack and Jenny? Or is this all part of the witches' plan, goading Zimmy into attacking them, then siphoning all her power, Agatha-style?
Zimmy ready to fry her brains lol
The connection Jack still has to her? Did Zimmy take out the USB without click it?
Think she's mad now? Wait until she finds out what the Court is doing with it...
Geez, either not her power, or Jenny is more and more crazy
Just kill her, Zimmy
I get the feeling she is speaking so openly very deliberately to try to find out just how much Jenny has been hiding from everyone.
Zimmy finding out she did not consent to be a power outlet.
what a refreshing amount of honesty.
maybe we're about to see a bit of overdue comeuppance
What do you MEAN I don't know everything about my instinctual WandaVision projection
An inability to read others?
Congratulations, you stepped in it! You did get her mind off Kat, though!
Might explain those headaches
On the one hand, yay answers! Sure feels good to get stuff explained that I didn't understand! On the other hand, new question. What the HECK is Zara's agenda?! She's clearly aggro'ing Zimmy on purpose, but why?!
im sorry what the fuck about jack
Wow. Jenny was keeping Jack linked to Zimmy on purpose for power. What a caring girlfriend. His obsession with Zimmy might've even went away if it wasn't for Jenny. And obviously she told her friends that Zimmy was totally cool with all of this power-stealing. Jenny's lies are gonna bite her in the butt soon.
Oh she is absolutely doing this on purpose. Zara is the weak link, she doesn't have blind loyalty to Jenny
I can’t tell what she’s playing at because surely she knows antagonizing Zimmy is a horrible plan. Does Jenny’s crowd see Zimmy as a pet like Eglamore warned Annie against with Coyote, or did Jenny lie and say Zimmy was fully on board with the whole thing.
is this part of the plan? seems like a pretty bad part of the plan if so
Oh dear, has Jenny been perhaps not entirely up-front with her co-conspirators?
Is... is she serious or is she trying to get a strong reaction from Zimmy?
And does Jack know and consent to this? Seems rather important. Jenny's actions seem more and more questionable and manipulative.
Welp. Either she's completely gullible to Jenny's scheme, Or she's throwing those two directly under the bus. This is also a great time to ask if Coyote removed Zimmy's guilt about the initial situation or her ability to feel guilt at all o_o"
Somehow...I get the feeling she doesn't know all about it or doesn't even like it a little bit.
OH SNAP I wondered if Jenny's infinite well of power was Zimmy... how has this been affecting her?? Can't wait to see what Zimmy does next ahhh! As a side note, the swipe-to-change-page on mobile is a little difficult still - I still find myself accidentally swiping pages when I mean to scroll down. Maybe swipe could use two fingers? Or maybe the layout at the top of the page can be made smaller on mobile, so there isn't as much scrolling down needed?
Me thinks Jenny said a "She's ok with it I talked to her" kinda lie. I think Zara genuinely doesn't know Zimmy wasn't told about this.
Ooooooo Jenny's in troubleeeee
Girl. She had no clue. Girl you're putting yourself in dangeeeer.
Oh I was really hoping this would be the outcome, I'm so happy
I don't think she knew all about it.
'I'm sure you already know, since Jenny is ethical and promised us that you said it's all cool!'
I don't think Zimmy likes that. Also the fact that they're in a janitors closet is funny. "Yeah we've been sucking your power without your consent" The mop bucket:
I wonder if Zara is still keeping her wits about her, as she apparently was earlier in this exchange.
Narrator: she did in fact not know all about it
It seems that Zimmy might have previously mistaken Kat for these power siphoners. If that 'hide themselves' trick held out even on precog stuff, until after the point Zimmy becomes aware of them? That would certainly change things. If you see your own end, and there's only one powerful person there, then that sort of has implications. Greater irony is if Zimmy gets Kat's help in closing this power siphon, and it essentially 'hides' her, even from her past self. Of course, Jenny continues to prove herself selfish. Tho I'm not sure how Zara didn't realize that 'we need to hide from Zimmy so she doesn't think we're her enemies' rather directly implies that Zimmy has no idea they're siphoning from her. But then, Jenny's minions on the whole haven't realized any of the other inconsistencies.
That face says "no i did not know all about it"
oooh ok thats why she keeps him around lol
Sometimes you'd better just shut the fudge up.
Witches about to get shut down
Oh dear, are Jenny's machinations about to backfire on her? (please say yes)
Oh. It's Not Zimmy's power is it? It never was, it was just using her as conduit.
yes, "what the hell are you talking about!?" = you know all about it!
She should probably learn to read a room, at least.
Oh this is TOTALLY on purpose, girl’s a double agent
Unless getting Zeta angry is part of the trap, someone's about to get disassembled.
OK, is Jenny gonna be a BBQ witch soon, or is Zimmy upset over a more " Do you Doofenshmirtzes have any idea what your messing with?!" kind of deal?
I wonder, it's that on purpose or just babble? Zara seems as trustworthy as a second hand car saleswoman.
So many check fails here. Roll for crit Z!
You shouldn't have said that.
She did not, in fact, know all about it.
oh so that's why he's like that
Oh good, she’s an idiot!
Get her, Zimmy!
So Jenny has been using Jack this whole time too? Did she ever even like him as a human being or was he always just a tool? ???? Also curious why Zara is throwing her under the bus right now
Ever heard of digging your own grave, girlie?
this explains a lot
...This one's the weak link, isn't she?
I feel like she just stepped on a land mine and is clueless to how horrible this all is. Whatever zimmy does next. I cannot blame her at all.
Narrator: She did not, in fact, know all about it.
I wonder what she's up to. I remember her talking Kat up too, albeit in a different way. Maybe, in addition to tracking, she's got talk-no-jutsu...
