Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for October 24, 2021

They’re going to need more leverage.

1. And once again, we see Marigold in a Lyra Heartstrings position.

2. Well Phoebe, if you do decide to be levitated, you know that Marigold won’t let you down.

If Phoebe did get launched in the air, wouldn’t she still need magic to land safely?

Marigold is rather light.

“Flying” is defined as traveling from point to point through air or outer space without touching ground or water in between, so technically she flew.

Reminds me of the scene in YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN where the Creature sits on a seesaw and sends the little flying through her (open) bedroom window.

Magical levitation never lets you feel the gravity of the situation.

Find a teeter totter and see how far it actually throws you

No cheating, good girl Phoebe!

That unicorn must not weigh very much. I have seen that technique work very well in old circus acts.

Unicorn Physics.

“Cheating” or not, Marigold’s suggestion is probably a lot safer for Phoebe.

Less bounce to the ounce?

Darn that physics…it’s never actually as fun as you’d think it’d be.

Phoebe’s way isn’t flying. It’s catapulting.

I’ll take that magical flying thing……

yeah

The take-off and the actual flying are easy. However, it’s the landing that’s a bit trickier.

That could’ve gone way worse. A little bit higher, and I think Phoebe could’ve been impaled on Marigold’s horn. What a way to end the series. Happy Halloween.

And, once again, Marigold flaunts the laws of physics. When confronted with this, she had this to say, “UNICORN!”
