Every other disbanding we've seen has been with a clap, she went for a stomp. Obviously what went wrong

Marie kept the flower. Marie gained a new flower. Also, that was really bad move for Jillian. It is Stanley Hamster scenario. You can't disband Fated unit!

It's not just a flower. Her whole phrygian cap is a skull with a flower, you just can't see anything below the top of two eye sockets.

Huh, so Marie is now Fated? And she was surprised by that. Assuming Stanley did in fact try to Disband Parson that one time (but he's not telling), we've seen this happen twice now.
Also interesting on the Decrypted Turning or not. I wonder if it's because it won't matter (i.e., Wanda only joins Faq briefly or most of the Decrypted somehow dust soon). I hope it's not the latter.

So, is it Jillian that can't dismiss decrypted or that decrypted can't be dismissed?

Whoa. I'll be honest I didn't see that coming. I wonder if Jill will go ahead and dust her? Also... I never noticed Marie's magic school symbol before... Interesting she has a little pyramid like the eyemancers do.

So, even disbanding isn't 100% automatic apparently. Is it because Marie is decrypted, hence 'popped' by Wanda and she and only she can disband? Or, Fate is directly interfering, like when Stanley missed her at close range with a blast, lo so many pages ago.
Yeah, Jillian could just slay her outright though, if she really wanted too.
Marie must be pretty sure Wanda doesn't have the 'Pliers, so how did she see Wanda get them again after turning to FAQ?

"Can't give me ANYTHING, can you Titans?!"
THAT'S sure gonna endear her to the crowd that hates Jillian because "the Titans" DO seem to give her so much.

Why would Marie think that Wanda doesn't have the Pliers? Marie's alive, isn't she? Wanda wouldn't be able to decrypt anyone if Wanda didn't have the Arkenpliers.

Aaaaaaand... let the first Jillianfest of the new season begin! That disbanding stompus interruptus is avatar worthy.
BTW, strange right hand in Marie, panel 8.

Are we absolutely positive that was a legitimate disbanding attempt? Maybe it does require a clap and she was just psyching Marie out.
The ending cry against the Titans makes me question this hypothesis, but if she really made a legitimate disbanding effort, all she would have to do now is stab her and that would complete the job.

Interesting, you can't disband the decrypted. That means they had l've the ability to be more free willed than anyone, because their lives don't depend on someone else allowing them to exist. Ironic really.
Looks like Jillian just sealed her Fate here. If she won't serve Fate and allow her Wanda and the decrypted in, then she needs to be dealt with to make sure it happens. She herself must be killed and decrypted, then she most break allegiance and again refound Faq. Unless... If Marie kills Jillian now, would she go barbarian or would she freeze in the capital?

And, frak, it's free will messing with Fate again. Or... actually, I think this is more Marie overestimating several things/people, blinding herself to what might actually happen. In Wanda!speak, Marie thought she was doing the easy path, and Jillian is once again choosing the hard path. Also... Marie is saying "I will tell her 'it's fated'." Does anyone else think she's admitting she'd lie to Wanda to get her on board? Frak, again, why did it take me this long to realize Predictamancers will probably lie about predicting something if they think it's going to get people to agree with their plans?

I will admit, this does seem like a weird story arc. I guess I never got the memo that Marie had any exceptional loyalty to FAQ, making this seem a bit sudden.
