Poor moth persons.

Explanations are in order Steph! And quickly! I doubt you guys have much time before things start ka-sploding again.

Pretty sure the term Mothman is accurate in this case. She was teying to mate with him earlier


So, it seems she's not brainwashed, but does seem to have been convinced to do whatever the queen does willingly.

[Storm-forge mystique]

...I'm guessing she named them?

Wow Steph, I see you became really attached to them, my condolences on your loss.

No, it was mothmen (plural). The others were either waiting their turn, or possibly, waiting for another session. 'cuz it'd seem odd that they waited 'til Leonard and co. showed up to get started, considering Steph's been missing for roughly an entire school year.

That reminds me: called it.

Wait, why is Steph speaking Japanese in that last panel?

Prom was towards the end of May.
It was a few days before Homecoming (so early October) when Katie/Leonard/Suki got blooped away.

[Gotoh]

So that'd be close to a 5 month period for Leonard/Katie/Suki, but how long has it been for Steph?

The reason I ask, is because the passage of time is bound to have been different for them and Stephanie. Sorta like what happened when Doc Brown sent Einie 5 minutes into the future. For him and Marty, 5 minutes elapsed before Einie returned - but for Einie, the trip had been instantaneous as shown by the time differences of their stopwatches.

So what might've only been months for them, could've been years for her. Or am I off?

See the name of the Mothman who just died in her arms.

All lead to this? i assume he means that all possible timelines still would have lead to him dying this day. but it makes me wonder, if the Mothmen have such an accurate perception available timelines, why don't they have more control over their fate? the Reptilian Empire must have incredible reach and power if a people with such perception still can't save themselves.

It's most likely a "Cassandra of Troy" thing for them. They can see it, but can't do much themselves to affect events. However, it seems they can enable others to do so by proxy, as we've seen Katie/Leonard/Suki do so far.
