Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for September 22, 2016
Transcript:
Todd: Rar rar rar? Marigold: No, Phoebe will probably be done with her history report eventually. But there will be more reports. I fear that as Phoebe gets older, I will see her less and less. Todd: Rar rar. Marigold: Yes...I am still sure she is my best friend. Todd: Rar. Marigold: Yes, you ARE lighter to carry, but part of that is that Phoebe wears clothes.

Summer clothes aren’t that heavy. Yes with age she will not be able to see unicorns and dragons just like otherkin.

This is starting to sound like the way Calvin and Hobbes ended, except Marigold probably won’t turn into a toy.

Google “upside down text” and choose one of the many sites that generate the text. Then just copy and paste.

I suppose he was also going to study Voodoo to work in Republican Theory. The first part is true.

Is Todd trying to steal Marigold from Phoebe?

Marigold the unicorn just got a reality check. From a small dragon. Who spews candy. And vomits ice cream.
OK, so “reality” is a relative term here.

I wonder why Marigold said that last comment.

@Night-Gaunt49:
No, the ability to see unicorns isn’t age-related in this strip’s universe. Unicorns use the Shield of Boringness to prevent people (adults and kids alike) from noticing them, but Marigold lowered the Shield just enough so that Phoebe’s parents and friends can see and interact with her without thinking “omigod a UNICORN!”

You overestimate the weight of clothes, Marigold.

I don’t like the “going-awayness” of the last panel.

This strip is depressing. Marigold is practically accepting that Phoebe will grow up, and that she will probably see her less and less. But who knows? Maybe that won’t be the case.

These comments make me really want someone to write a fanfic about Phoebe growing up and Marigold dealing with it.
