thats should be that's (once in yours and once in mine) and childs should be child's.
And, no, it wasn't deliberate, but I suppose typing backwards quickly makes your spelling and punctuation suffer.

Am I the only one who sees Sunny using power slash to cut Coil's timelines in a way that she wants?

Isn't Coil's power more of a special pre-cog or something that he merely views as different timelines?

Most people either think that his power shows him 2 version of the future then puppets him to the point that the vision ended, or it simply shows him an alternate future.
My headcanon is that it shows him an alternate future, and the shard simply knows which he would have taken if given a choice.

It's good to see Taylor and Danny are getting on better ... I mean it took their house being invaded by the Merchants and Act of doG, but hey, silver lining to everything.
Meanwhile I think the shrine's message of "Our neutrality is backed by lupine weapons." message is getting around. Do not mess with doG ... Skidmark messed with doG and look what happened to him. Lung messed with doG exactly once, and has not done it since. Kaiser knows better than to mess with doG. Learn from these people.
And we finally see the Undersiders for the first time ... I still have no idea what's going to happen when Bitch meets Sunny.
Oh gods, Tattletale no ... though as @Datcord this is pretty much exactly the right amount of one-upmanship for Tats when she's not being actively hostile ... I expect shit like this is why Faultline and her don't get on.
So, pet theory ... this meeting is "How do we deal with a problem like Act of doG" and Coil is arranging for Taylor to show up uninvited because ... well, Coil gonna Coil, and he thinks that he gets to pick between this and the timeline where he didn't invite her ... and if anyone in town can go "You involved me in this, so we're picking this timeline." it's Sunny.
Emma ... this was probably the most mild and restrained way you could possibly get the truth introduced to you. You're getting off very lightly this way ... I suggest you learn from it. Emma is in the middle of doing a lot of rebuilding of herself ... I'm curious to see what comes out of it.

Assuming he wants something from Taylor? To see how she reacts probably. Alternately, he doesn't really care what Taylor does but is pretty sure whatever it is will mess up Kaiser and Lung's plans.

I just realize fucking something. Somer's Rock patron are deaf, right? And Annette Hebert used to be linguistic professor, right? And Taylor was very close to her mother, right?
See where I'm going with this?
(Assumes Coil or others doesn't do shenanigans)
(Which is forlorn hope, but, well, hope)

It's already 15 minutes in the Somer's Rock, but Taylor already hated the place.
For starter, the place is gloomy, dark, depressing, hot (considering she wears formal kimono, that's unbearably annoying), damp, smells funny, and the worst of all....
The place. Doesn't serve. Non-alcoholic drink.
That's it. Formal business or not, no way she's getting anything done without some proper hydration first. So she skips formalities and ask the patron, a young girl (isn't she too young to serve here?) if she had some non-alcoholic drink-
Only to have this rude guy laugh at her and telling her that the patron is deaf, so don't bother with anything not on menu.
This is really get to her nerv-Deaf?
Oh. Oooh.
Dear Mom in Heaven, thank you for everything you gave me.
Well, it's a long shot, but it worth a try....
****
Rina Estevez had no illusion about what kind of people this place serve.
She had already had her fill of being stared at, groped, and on some unlucky days, get almost molested by stupid patron.
The only silver lining is that the last people do that will be horribly maimed at minimum. Patron change is bad for their business, as it is.
Also she didn't need to hear all the jeers and whistles. She just knew there will be whistles, but at least she didn't need to hear it.
Well, there are patrons that, at least, polite, and often enough that she can preserve and moving on through bad, ugly days. Like this girl in foofy, Asian-looking dress (or robe?).
It's just that while they're nice, they can't really communicate with her. Not entirely their fault, she guess.
Ah, the girl was go to the counter. Well, what is she want-
What.
What.
Did... did the girl just do... that?
Did she just say 'I am Brushstroke. Nice to meet you. Who are you?'?
****
All the assorted rogues and villains can only watch the magic unfolded.
It started innocently enough. Brushstroke, insisting on non-alcoholic drink, had come to the waitress and requested a non-alcoholic drink. Which, in most cases, will only end up in disappointment, since they only served what's on menu, and assumed that most people won't be able to tell what they want.
Assumed was the keyword here.
And then somehow, Brushtroke, with some gestures and wave of hand (literally), manages to summon not only a glass of cold, pure water, but about 25 minutes later, somehow manages to get a kettle, some bottled mineral water, sugar, and a box of tea leaves.
And she keeps... communicating with the waitress.
And in about 15 minutes later, somehow, she manages to makes everyone to sit down, have some tea, moving the negotiation on her terms, and somehow everyone involved get satisfied and just a tad bit paranoid.
Less than usual.
However, the real knockout came a month later.
Somehow, Brushstroke manages to acquired Somer's Rock and making a massive refit out of it. But it's not the biggest news that month.
A week earlier, Thomas Calvert had been ousted as Coil. Both PRT and the rogues/ villains are unhappy with this, and even more unhappy when it found out that he played both sides like a fiddle. And also using patsies on meeting on Somer's Rock.
So, nobody pay attention much when one Danny Hebert manages to buy Somer's Rock under the table, remove all the patron (into protection details), and refurbish the pub into more respectable place.
When the villains found out, it's already too late. And there's nothing they can do about it. Especially when New Somer's Rock had Armsmaster as effective bouncer.
So, the only neutral place available are the Pawprint Shrine, and most villains, begrudgingly, accept that.
They will never admit that tea was that good. Never.
...Okay, maybe a bit.
****
Rina Estevez consider her plight.
She never knows literature can be this hard.
Not that she's not grateful for this change, not at all. For starters, now she had friends. Companions.
People to talk with.
Is just that, well....
It's kind of frustrating. She never write this much before on her life.
....
...Brush-no, Taylor did say she try new batch of tea today....
****
Taylor Hebert is busy on sweeping the path, when she heard the footstep. She looks up.
Former Somer's Rock waitress, Rina Estevez, was there.
'Hello, Taylor'
'Hello, Rina. What brings you here?'
'Well, you said you want to try new batch of tea....'
See where I'm going with this?

Ya, know most people don't realize this, but Amaterasu is one of the three incarnations of the Goddess Inari, who is the mother of Tamamo-no-mae (who is in some instances another one of Inari's three incarnations). What I'm trying to get is that Ammy likes foxes, so when Tattle Tail was trying to smug at her miko she probably just felt obligated to show the poor young kitt how a real professional does smug . It's not Ammy's fault that Tattle Tail was totally unprepared for the vast gulf between their levels of smugging experience.
