Gunnerkrigg Court/Recap/Volume 03/Chapter 025: Sky Watcher and the Angel

"Antimony: They can't even look at each other now. [...] It's so painfully obvious they like each other. But now they act like enemies!"
 * Belligerent Sexual Tension: Antimony tells Kat that "Andrew and Parley have become unbearable [...] ever since she teleported us to her bedroom by accident":

"Antimony: I thought love was supposed to be a good thing. Kat: Oh it totally is! But uh... I dunno. Better to have loved and lost than to be... dead or something. Antimony: I don't think that's how the saying goes."
 * Confused Question Mark:
 * Kat gets one when Sky Watcher wordlessly flies out of the shrine to Jeanne and out of Kat's workshop to tell the robot king of the shrine and its angelic guardian, Kat.
 * Continuity Nod:
 * The S1 robot body remains kneeling in the shrine to Jeanne, where Kat left it in chapter 18 after removing S13's CPU from it.
 * Antimony's first appearance, in which she talks to Kat outside Kat's workshop while wearing a tan coat on a cold day, parallels the flashback at the end of chapter 18, in which Surma talks to Anja outside the same building while wearing a very similar coat on a similarly cold day.
 * Everyone Can See It: Antimony tells Kat, of Andrew and Parley, that "It's so painfully obvious they like each other" although "now they act like enemies".
 * Face Doodling: The robot king draws on his own face with a marker to control his facial expression to show emotion. According to the author, it's because the robot king has found a way to express emotion that the other robots respect him.
 * Metaphorgotten: In a conversation about Andrew and Parley's Belligerent Sexual Tension, Kat fails at quoting Tennyson:


 * Narm: In-Universe, when the robot king emerges from the shrine to Jeanne having drawn tears onto his face, his entourage exclaim that it's "A sad face! The saddest face!" and hold their heads in grief, whereas Kat clearly finds it hilarious.
 * Robot Religion: The robots seemingly have made the shrine to Jeanne their own, adding extra decorations that presumably have some symbolic importance to them (most prominently, a symbol for an electrical ground) and cleaning the surrounding area. Robot S13 calls Kat an angel and the mechanical monster he fought in S1's body a demon. S13 convinces Sky Watcher to accept Kat as an angel, and Sky Watcher in turn converts the robot king.
 * Thank the Maker:
 * Too Important to Walk: The robot king travels on a litter borne by robots that seem to be designed for the task.
