Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for January 04, 2024

I’m happy too, Marigold.

Yesterday, it escalated. Today, it cooled back down.

I hope she’s practiced going to the bathroom without looking at what she’s doing.

Now Marigold will learn about toilet paper.

Nanny Weatherwax, called it borrowing.

Don’t ask me how, but I actually*did* that when I was much younger. Maybe telepathy or something similar. All I remember is that I could see what the other person was seeing.

And it let the arc fill another day!

But will Marigold be able to take her eyes off herself? She’d better cast the Shield of Boringness first.

Oh man. I was looking forward to a gory scene of a kid’s eyeballs being gouged out in this children’s comic strip.

“When someone else who’s twice their size, can’t see the world through children’s eyes”!

This strip, out of and in context, is beautifully cursed.

Marigold: “Now, please remove your head.”

In their sockets, and connected to the visual center in the brain, which is what does the actual seeing.

And so, an unsuspecting child remained immobile for days on end, staring transfixed, at ‘her’ unicorn beauty.

I’m surprised that didn’t happen when they swapped bodies a while back… Phobe(‘s body) should have starved!

That’s only slightly less weird.

Eye, eye, aye!

Marigold has an eye for an eye.

Don’t be absurd, Phoebe! We’re talking about magic here.

You really had us frightened there Marigold, yes thanks a bunch for clearing it up!
