I think you missed the part where the three chapter suggestion was for the first three chapters since they are shorter than the last three chapters. (Though that option is currently losing anyway.)

I vaguely recall seeing that before, but forgot it with my bad memory =(

Thinga are heating up! What are you doing Sara :weary: It’s true that she doesn’t have the full context, but Edward is playing her like a fiddle (or a piano?)!

I…I forgot that the manga was also in black and white and it took me a moment to recognize the scene because of that. :joy: I say “also” like that isn’t the default…

This week’s reading broke me. I had to read ahead. But I stopped myself after one extra week’s worth! I’ll miss Shadow House next week though :smiling_face_with_tear:

I won’t give myself any credit for calling the Sherry thing, because it was super obvious. But they followed up on that way more quickly than I expected.

Also, I’m too lazy to go back and check, but I’m pretty sure Sherry parkouring in Kate’s room was hinted at during that scene when it was happening. The サササ from the perspective of the shelf looks familiar to me.

By the way, how did Kate slap John with her hair? Is the idea that since they emit soot, their hair gets covered in it, which she can then manipulate?

Edward said in an earlier chapter that he would assume the star bearers are rebels if the human kids didn’t get the special coffee, and Mia and Doug are so down to narc on them. AND Patrick remembered his name! Ram just resurfaced, and they are already setting up more big events. The story is going so hard!

Offhand I’m not seeing any hinting there, but for those who want to check, it’s volume 4, chapters 47 and 48.

Yes, it is there. Chapter 48, just before an Edward scene.

Ah, there it is. I completely missed seeing that one.

Thanks to both of you for finding it! Now we just sit and wait for a Shadow House video game that consists entirely of Sherry stealth parkouring throughout the house.
