Line 11:
* That last bit has been [[Jossed]] by [http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=373 page 373]: Humans were present at the Court's founding. But considering Jones' choice of words, it's possible those first humans were the ones who grew the Court in the first place.
* Furthermore, if the Court really did grow, perhaps the Tic Tocs are a sort of larval form. The Court unleashes them into the world where they eventually settle down and start growing into new Courts. Alternatively, they merely grow into new buildings at the Court's edge, allowing it to expand.
** So where do [[Discworld/Reaper Man|snow globes and shopping trolleys]] fit into this?
*** TicTocs eat snow globes like parrots eat nuts?
* The "element that began the creation of the Court" was known as [http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=583 Seed Bismuth].
Line 59:
 
== The purpose of the Court's "trying to become like God" is resurrection ==
The Court's current goal is to resurrect people, probably starting with Jeanne. Because harnessing supernatural powers and science to bring someone to life [[Fullmetal Alchemist|never]] [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|ever]] [[xxxHolic×××HOLiC|goes]] [[Frankenstein|wrong]].
 
 
Line 625:
 
== Kat grows up to be [[Dresden Codak|Kimiko "Thunderbolt" Ross]]. ==
[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=144 look] at [https://web.archive.org/web/20130726072036/http://www.dresdencodak.com/cartoons/dc_037.html THEM], clearly after all the interaction with hybrid tree people, Kat decides to start merging humans with technology, and a transhumanist is born.
* Thank you, I just read the whole comic in one binge and came to this page specifically to look for or add the WMG that Kimiko is related to one or both of Kat and Annie. Kat shares her interests in a lot of ways but Annie is closer in personality.
* Hey, isn't it Robot at the end of that comic? He's got those wings, and is referred to as "Robot"!
Line 683:
== Zimmy's "pin" ==
Is just a pin. While she probably wasn't confined to a horrible orphanage like real-life orphans from Eastern Europe, she clings dearly to the few things she can call her own, like the pin and her friend/madness-dampener Gamma.
* [[Discworld/Going Postal (Discworld)|See a pin, pick it up, all day long, you'll have a pin]].
* Maybe not: high-tech tracking devices don't work on Zimmy, so something as crude as a faintly radioactive button should do the trick.
 
== The place Zimmy goes to is artist Zdzisław Beksiński's mindscape ==
I mean, [httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20101026043617/http://beksinski.pl/ just look at his stuff.]
 
== If Zimmy survives whatever Tom has in store for her, she'll eventually find peace ==
Line 978:
This ties in nicely with the aforementioned ''Girl Genius'' crossover theory, as [[Sonic the Hedgehog/WMG|WMG has proven]] that ''Sonic'' is also the future of the GG-verse.
 
== Ditto ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20131123045510/http://www.platinumgrit.com/ Platinum Grit]''. This is a big 'verse. ==
Science! Magic! Mysterious spirits! Even more [[Mysterious Parent|mysterious family backstories]] (complete with [[Generation Xerox|photos of the last generation looking a lot like this generation]])! A castle that's as damn well big as the plot damn well needs! A suspicious lack of clearcut villains in the recurring cast!
 
Line 1,031:
* Sort of confirmed in "Divine"- the tree is powerful because of the memories it evokes in Annie.
