That's one of the things bothering me. I'm perfectly willing to believe that they are magically adhesive in some fashion, but it would've been so easy to just have Annie or even someone in the background shown trying and failing to rip it off so that the reader doesn't inevitably ask that question.

Perhaps the anti removal spell is a psychic suggestion that prevents anyone from thinking of trying.

Or they've been around magic long enough that they know tinkering with it either does nothing or could zap the tinkerer.

I seem to vaguely recall Spider-Jack doing something similar to Reynardine.

Yeah, that avatar's a 'Shop of my real face.

Still that would explain Annie's lack of reaction.

This is Annie we're talking about here. She's getting better (Well, more normal. Nothing wrong with how she was before), but the witch girl (Yeah, yeah, stereotypes) is a stranger.

You know, I hadn't thought of Renard, but I suppose he's as good a choice as any, and the one she would be most likely to think of given the situation.

"Why does that Court thing keep hovering around Reynardine's body?"
I think either Coyote or Isengrim would figure it out very quickly, if that even happens. Of course it would be a damned odd meeting "hello, we'd just like to let you know one of your students is in trouble".

She is the Gillite's medium, though. They could decide to take care of saving her themselves and Court wouldn't be able to object.

I don't know how friendly Reynardine is with Anja and Donald, but He seems to have at least semi-friendly relationships with both Eglamore and Jones.

So do you think we're getting another two-parter here?

Maybe. Given the average length of chapters I'd say we have another 10-15 pages in this one.

Okay. I guess last chapter was a bit of a Breather Episode, huh?
