Re: Girl Genius XXIV: Ask Vit a Bit More Terror
The last panel suggests that Klaus only subjected Gil to mind control, because he could see no other way to keep him alive; likely Lucrezia ordered him to kill Gil if he couldn't control him. If the overlay is only supposed to protect Gil against her and other threats then he might have left Gil as free as possible while still fulfilling Lucrezias orders to the letter.

Re: Girl Genius XXIV: Ask Vit a Bit More Terror
Not to mention the legitimate possibility that Gil very well might've been wasped in Paris. Granted, Klaus was wasped when he said this, but the fact remains that Gil was hanging out with Zola during his university days, and we all know what Zola's capable of now. If the Knights of Jove (or the House of Mongfish) had on them a spark wasp, it would've been crazy not to wasp Gil.

Re: Girl Genius XXIV: Ask Vit a Bit More Terror
SpoilerFor reference, here's another Higgs/Zeetha moment from five years ago (before the timeskip), where her pronounced canines can be seen in a few panels (including the following page).
In fact, she's had her pointy teeth since the beginning.

Re: Girl Genius XXIV: Ask Vit a Bit More Terror
SpoilerShe's had them for quite a while. Really obvious example here: http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comi...5#.W4jO0uhKiUk
Even earlier, they're more subtle but clearly visible: http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comi...8#.W4jPsuhKiUk
And looking at her first appearance with "Zeetha has fangs" in mind: http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comi...9#.W4jQCehKiUk
I think she's straight up always had them. Maybe they've become more pronounced since the timeskip, or maybe it's just the art style. I don't think we can say that she has suddenly become a Jaeger though.

Re: Girl Genius XXIV: Ask Vit a Bit More Terror
It is also possible that, if the fan theory that Gil and Zeetha are twins holds up, it isn't the Baron who has more Jaeger tech than expected, but Skifander that has lots of Jaeger tech.

Re: Girl Genius XXIV: Ask Vit a Bit More Terror
Well, crud. Looks like Violetta lost. That's a frightened face on Zeetha.
Zeetha still hasn't figured out what Higgs does for the Jagers and Heterodynes. He doesn't need Tarvek to play tricks to have a uniform.This ... is my signature finishing move!

Re: Girl Genius XXIV: Ask Vit a Bit More Terror
It would be a HUGE surprise if the twins theory wasn't true by this point especially since we got the see "Chump"/Klaus run through the gate from Skif carrying Gil. As for Skif having Jaeger tech it may just be natural for them to have some Jaeger like qualities. Or maybe even some of the Jaeger tech was "borrowed" in some way from Skif.

Re: Girl Genius XXIV: Ask Vit a Bit More Terror
Gil can sport them as well. Most of the time they are not very noticeable, but when he lets loose they come out.

Anyone remember where Oggie picked up that green hat? It looks like the one from the Sharktooth sidebar.

Re: Girl Genius XXIV: Ask Vit a Bit More Terror
I think Zeetha is mad at Oggie. After all, she appears to be entering the room he just left. So I suspect he did something irritating.
That would make sense. I'm beginning to suspect that she isn't entirely human. Even from the beginning of the comic she's had pointy teeth and natural green hair (I presume it's natural). Perhaps she's a jaeger-human hybrid?Last edited by xroads; 2018-08-31 at 01:34 PM. Reason: Added some more content

Re: Girl Genius XXIV: Ask Vit a Bit More Terror
Nope - Oggie got this one on his own. Ivo's hat is different.

Re: Girl Genius XXIV: Ask Vit a Bit More Terror
The Geisterdamen recognize a Skifanderian, which may simply be a result of the Queen's Mirrors - or maybe its the result of there being some connection there, too. They have no fangs.
Klaus has no fangs. We haven't seen the Queen enough to know if she has fangs, but the assumption would be that the twins get them from her.
I wonder if all the Skifanderians are descended from people who drank something similar to the Jagerdraught, and survived.This ... is my signature finishing move!

Re: Girl Genius XXIV: Ask Vit a Bit More Terror
I can think three things would get her angry: a beaten Violetta, a beaten
whats-her-nameAriadne, or the wreck caused by the battle of the two prior individuals.
That said, since Violetta hasn't gone back to Agatha to report, my guess at current would be that it will be Violetta.

Re: Girl Genius XXIV: Ask Vit a Bit More Terror
Tarvek didn't know, and he's generally the last word in sneaky. Combine that with the fact that his and Zola's information networks probably overlap heavily (them both being part of the Sturmvoraus/Mongfish Family Conspiracy Web (TM) and all) and it seems rather unlikely that she was aware.
Also, back then Lucrezia hadn't been summoned and Agatha was unheard of, so it would be a little weird for the Order to focus on the creation of more revenants, with nobody around capable of controlling them. And was Zola even working with a Lucrezia-loyalist faction?
Furthermore, the wasp that infects sparks was still in the prototype phase when it was used on the Baron. Tarvek claims that it's the only one in existence, so it would be a little strange if another one had been avaliable months or even years earlier (I really need to work on that timeline) to wasp Gil.
So in conclusion, Zola would only have wasped Gil if she'd known Lucrezia would return within his lifetime, had been a Lucrezia supporter in general, had known that he was really the Baron's son and had had access to an as yet non-existent strain of slaver wasp. It seems unlikely.

Re: Girl Genius XXIV: Ask Vit a Bit More Terror
I would suspect the wreck. Amidst the ruin of their room, if Violetta was down Zeetha would be concerned; if Lady Steelgarter were down she'd be puzzled. But just a room torn up would make her angry.
Although for Violetta not to be trying to get answers out of a captive Steelgarter would suggest Vi lost...

Re: Girl Genius XXIV: Ask Vit a Bit More Terror
Only semi-canon, but in the GG print novels, it's revealed that while Gil was still a child, Klaus made extensive physical improvements to him, mostly without Gil's knowledge; he learns about this from Mamma Gkikka in Mechanicsburg; it was one of the reasons she risked giving him the battle-draught to get him patched up.
Also from the novels, when Agatha first meets Zeetha, it's specifically noted that yes, she has abnormally long canine teeth.

Re: Girl Genius XXIV: Ask Vit a Bit More Terror
Poking through the archives, I came upon this little aside:
...you Jagers remind me a LOT of my people back home.
Maybe the Draught comes in different brands or something, like Stoke and Pepppsy. Maybe the Dyne isn't just one place.
