Ummm.... I'm sorry if this has been addressed before but... Tarot was out of the car... like she definitely was... so... Ummmm, is it ever explained how she got back in? Or should we ignore the part where she got out? Because Im fine with that, i just am a little bit confused

If I had to guess, Steward stuck her in the car once he let her think she had a chance at stopping him. Basically he was toying with her.

In End of Year Thirteen, Demon-Steward is seen approaching Tarot from behind, having placed the party's car on the roof. As depicted in Book Review, the car was not completely crumpled and had not yet been wrapped in girders. As of The Form of Your Destructor, Tarot is in a much-more-crumpled car, now with steel beams wrapped around it. Thus, between the events of End of Year Thirteen and The Form of Your Destructor, Demon-Steward confined Tarot to the car with the rest of her team and wrapped it up to make sure nobody would leave while he was doing his Very Important Business.

To be fair, Tarot would be forgiven for assuming Todd was distracted.

Usually, splitting up wouldn't be a good idea (Horror movies proved this very well)...but in this case, it could work.

Now we know it’s desperate;
coz Tarot’s got a plan
and she’s relying on
them acting with élan.
To get Kitsune’s attention
she knows they’ve got to run
before the demon Steward guy
picks them off for fun.
First they have to leave the car
pinned upon the roof.
Maybe Todd can get them out
without acting like a goof?

That's probably why she doesn't see getting out of the car as a problem (which Todd clearly does)

Seems like Todd does have some hidden-depths to him after all and we didn't even know about it. He was paying attention to Tarot and summarized her plan perfectly. Of course, he might only be attentive when he is slipping someone the tongue. :3

Eheh, let them kiss. :lol: Alright, the things are at your side, but is always needed Great Kitsune's intervention, who can't neither use you to seek demon Steward presence, because this last is using an energy against that... Calm down, Tarot, I know the difficult moment, but that reaction is so typical of you... :P For once, Todd was paying attention to what someone said, and actually, didn't propose a bad idea. ;) :D Try to get out the car and run away each in one direction could mess up Steward's attention, some chaos by you can work... :roll:

Did you say no meaning yes, Tarot? I honestly don’t think that Lois will be in favor of Marion fending for himself, so they would stay together. Maybe Marion, Lois, and Tarot would flee in one direction while Todd and the aardvark fled in the other.

I think that Tarot might end up with Todd and the aardvark instead and Marion and Lois flee together to get Steward's attention and he will probably go after them. I have a feeling that its gonna be Steward trying to take out Marion first and Lois trying to protect him.

Why? So Tarot can have more people ignore her except for Todd when she says stuff? :lol:

Well, I hadn't thought of that, but that's another good reason to add to the list.
I don't know. Maybe I'm finding my interest in Housepets diminishing with the the pace of narrative slowing to a comic a week. Nobody's problem but mine, eh?

How many goats and how unwilling do they need to be? Tarot's usually more specific.

I think she just wants us to use our own decision on how many and how unwilling they have to be.

Even Tarot's mind is stuck,
And so they're now screaming CARP!
Lois knows that Kitsune can't see the car-
Time to split up; Go run real far!

Go run real fast and scatter quickly
So as to break the spell of a mind that's sickly-
And Tarot, to Todd's question, screams out 'NO'
Oh he's paying attention? That's new, whoa!
You're a wonderful person! You can do this! Yes, you, person reading this!

Even though he might be a total scumbag, at least we can say Todd does pay attention when the world is on the line. :mrgreen:
