Resting isn't the same as sleeping
when you're a functioning immortal;
it only means that you cannot act
and not that you don't know all.
A function is now given thought,
one he had some years ago.
One that kept his plans distracted
until ruined by a Rabbit we know.
It's possible their path was set by them,
the future being their own creation;
No-one tell them for, if known,
Max might get ideas above his station...

So, is this why Pete wanted Grape as his avatar in the future? Then... those saying this had to happen and there was not paradox were right? o.o

Who's to say it's new information? We may already have seen what he did with it - see link someone put in above - this might just have given him that idea.

Well, apparently this was what set those wheels in motion.

And now that someone actually says it, Grape really is weird regarding color. I've looked a bit into Russian blues, which I recall the theory that that is Grape's breed, but still, wow.

Well now we learn how Pete came to the idea of using Grape as his avatar. So it seems that this episode was even a part of their time line all along.

No, this never had happened, and now the event was inserted into the past, that's why Tarot and Sabrina never had a hint. It's time paradox!

I'd think that both Dragon and Pete knows what's happening because they are above the mortals' timeline.

Mine hurts too. Why F. (Future) Pete went after Joel instead of simply taking Grape. Unless it's supposed to be a crazy plan that let's P. (Past) Pete take Grape as avatar.

Or unless there's a time paradox that splits in two Pete, Pete1 coming after grape and Pete2, after Joel.

Welp, now we see why Pete was obsessed with Grape, before encountering Joel.

Guess that means it's already happened in the past...

Also, Petey the cursed Grif looks adorable sleeping on those pillows... Then again, he's got roughly four thousand, nine hundred and five years before someone stumbles upon his temple...

(Just so you guys know, I believe that's roughly the time Old Milton (The owner of the Milton Ferrets) found Pete's Cursed temple and moved it to Babylon, the comic implies he died of age but never stated how old he was... Wait, just what Was the Curse Draggy put on Petey's temple anyway?)

no, that's easy.
Pete's first choice was the "Dream Sunderer" avatar class, which included Fido, Peanut, and Grape. So it stands that, given what just happened, he felt inclined to choose Grape.
But for some reason -and it might have to do with the fact that Grape was with peanut in that fated dream in "The Glades" arc- Grape had to be a couple with Peanut for the summoning to work in reality. When Tarot intervened and broke the couple-to-be, Pete had to let go of Grape. And so he went for Joel, transforming him into a dog to get an animal avatar as per rules AND to have a begrudged avatar so to satisfy the requisites for a "Dark Paladin" class.
Later on, in the "Dog Days of Summer" arc, King realized that he couldn't be forced to do anything unless he cooperated by his own free will. And thus Pete closed him in that dog cage while the gryphon (probably) went off and decided how to manage this development. King got free, spent some time with Fox and tried to make out with several girls, including Tarot, who 'casually' dropped the truth about the new dog in town.
At this point, King, while looking out for Tarot, was met by Pete and Dragon made her first appearance. King was explained that, since his own transformation was forced upon him and he wasn't even allowed to think of himself as Joel, he couldn't be classified as a proper avatar. Pete was forced to make another choice, while King was left in his doggy state because, after all, that was his life now and he could better do his best about it.
And finally we came to the point, years later, that BAILEY was the new choice for avatar: This time, having Pete learned that he couldn't just break in and force the decisions, he made it so that King and Bailey were together (it is highly possibile that it was him who bought Bailey's farm so that she moved to Babylon Gardens) out of their own will and love. And eventually Pete offered Bailey the chance to be his avatar (as he had planned) in "Heaven's not enough" 3-parts arc. His greatest mistake was to separate the couple, and turning King back into Joel so to put him in too many trouble for the human to have the time to look out for Bailey... And we know how it went

Edit, wait a second:

Brigham County?

There doesn't seem to be a Brigham County in the US currently, but there was one in Idaho in 1922. Unfortunately Idaho is not in the Possum-Magpie zone and is more than 9 hours from Kansas.

So Grape's dream is not authoritative, despite it's corroboration when Zach woke Pete up.

HUGE plot hole in this strip, he he.

why did Pete take the slower way with Grape?
how did S.D. prevent Pete to take Grape?
why didn't Pete also take Zach?
is actually Grape aware of the game?

And Grape was completely excited when Pete showed up, so he could actually take Grape and Peanut instantly as their avatar since too much hype on them. Why the slower way???

Uh... Pete said he needed Grape to be the one to push the button in order to ignore the "never been in love" requirement. Since Zach pushed the button, Grape wasn't going to work as an option anymore.

Because he couldn't leave his temple.
Grape actually chose Max herself.... You do have a point there.
Because Zach is not a dog or a cat.
She is aware of the supernatural and the fact that they are gods of some sort, but we don't have explicit confirmation that she knows about the game as such.

Tarot and Sabrina likely didn't know that Pete learned about Grape from all those years back. I doubt even Dragon knew.

Also - We're on Part 3 of the arc, but are we gonna see Avatar Grape now? I so want to see Avatar Grape :3

They're both acting just like 2 siblings would when they're in trouble.
Dang, so that's where Pete made all of his ideas that he would do with Grape in the future.

He had to get a dog or a cat to the temple to push the button. Zach ran away with the raccoons because (a) he was feeling neglected and (b) because hey raccoons. He opened the temple and pushed the button releasing Pete. But he wasn't a dog or cat. So. Oops.

Heh... but seriously I actually love how this is progressing. So Pete got the idea for using grape because of the time travel event. also. I see some of you are trying to pinpoint where Babylon gardens could be, cool idea :)

Transformation, especially against one's own free will, seems to be a rule-breaker. Plus, as he was a rabbit before, he'd technically be ineligible for the same reason that Pete couldn't keep Joel/King, as he wasn't originally a dog.

"Prior status is unimportant."

The problem with King wasn't his prior status, it was consent.

Fat luck getting Zach "I'm not your prophet!" Arbelt to go along with that.

Eheh, how childish they're being now. :P Mommy Dragon is reproaching you two. :lol: But, why they're also harming their families behaving in that way? Oh, even while sleeping Pete gets ideas, and can listen to her sibling telepathically... :? Well, I'm wondering what's going to happen now...
In fact, in his future plans, he wanted to get Grape has his avatar. But, Spirit Dragon hindered it, and so Pete "cheated" with an human transformed into a dog. The rest is history. ;)

I don't think how Tarot and Dragon met was explained, but I could be wrong on that, as that detail escapes me. Avatars seem to be chosen based on class criteria. As for Sabrina, she was elected as the next avatar, so she was training under Tarot, so it would seem that she was also allowed some access to Dragon's power and acted as backup in that battle.

Because she's Tarot's apprentice. She's also somewhat psychic in her own right. I got the impression she's been leeching power from Dragon through Tarot. A convenient rules loophole that gives Dragon a second almost-avatar.

I mean you know the cosmic nerds are total munchkin powergamers. Particularly Dragon. Any loophole WILL get used:
