Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for November 25, 2022

Here’s a song that goes out to a girl who isn’t here. And that’s exactly where I want her.

Phoebe’s next writing project will be to write a story.

It’ll be titled “How Marigold the Beautiful Unicorn Saved the Day, No Thanks to Phoebe the Time-Traveling Chowderhead”.

Not really helping there, Phoebe.

The kid who is covering his face right now is not the person I am talking about at all.

Fortunately, “The Glasses Human” doesn’t sound like a nickname with a long shelf life.

Busted by denial!

Right now he is probably hiding his face like LSH.

Phoebe: This is just a platonic admiration and nothing more.

But the rest of the class doesn’t buy it for a moment.XD

Now everyone is looking around the room!

Laughing so hard at this one!!.

first Phoebe is now referring to Max in the same manner as a non-binary person somewhat like Ferny the unicorn except Ferny could be called a Neigh.

But the fact she also mentions Max as The Glasses Human is even more embarrassing than if he or she just were honest in the first place.

Now she’s addressing his disadvantage like if he had braces.

They both made bigger fools of themselves than anything.

And blushing like a tomato is just too funny.

Although blushing like a tomato could sound like it might be an allergic reaction to something.

Otherwise a complete and satisfying joke from start to finish.

Everybody ignore the blushing kid in glasses sitting in the classroom then.

And every kid immediately turns their head towards Max.

“…who doesn’t make themselves the center of everything.” HINT HINT.

Ya know, admiring someone so much is awfully close to being attracted, having a crush… woo hoo!

Phoebe, please stop pointing poor Glasses Human

I hope it’s more “I’m not used to people saying such nice things about me” blushing, but I suspect it’s along the lines of “can a hole please open up under me right now so I can fall in it and die”
