Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for April 27, 2023

Ahh the good ole days!

Was it an hour, or a decade?

A child splashing in the water would mess with her reflection.

I knew it!

“I am but a humble messenger of the cosmos.” — Dana Simpson

If this was an hour before Marigold first met Phoebe then Phoebe has a chance to meet three versions of Marigold at once. Let’s see whether this happens or whether the two later Marigolds just watch Phoebe meeting Marigold without meeting the past Marigold themselves.

The lesson is that the thing that already happened will happen soon. I feel like we all learned a lot.

the two Marigolds better leave within that hour’s time or else future Phoebe will have odd memories of meeting three unicorns

I could have sworn that Phoebe disturbed Marigold’s reflection with the rock, rather than hitting Marigold herself, but going back to April 2012 I see that Marigold did say Ow! (On the other hand, for Marigold just having her image disturbed would probably be physically painful.)

Looks like she hit one Marigold in the eye with that rock. ;-)

I wonder if this is the type of review arc that Dana was planning to coincide with the animated series, and she gave up and wrote it anyway.

A unicorn hypnotized was a goon to hunters back in the days where unicorns had to watch their back and front

Ah, if we all could go back to that moment when… wait, I’ve never had one of those moments…. 8(
