Part Five: Recyclable Onions
COMICS 2001-2100
Belated Birthday Party
Poor Moraystripe. Actually, you know what, no, not poor Moraystripe. All we wanted was to throw him a party.
Cave In
Who knows?
Camera 101
Sounds tough.
Changed My Mind
Poor Clovernose.
Brain Surgeon
This was pretty much the exact scenario Adderbite and I had already agreed needed to happen.
Bobby Pins
My real name isn't Stacey, but that's what she calls me.
New Mushrooms
There were mushrooms all over her yard.
Close Doors
Oh well.
Metaphorical
I don't know what the context was. I am probably better off not knowing.
Not Your Classroom
Poor kid.
Next To Garbage
So is the garbage metaphorical or…
People Who Program
Invisible sunglasses?
Search History
Brackenclaw said this was accurate.
Spaghetti
I feel like I messed up Kingletcloud's spots.
Sometime In The Afternoon
It kind of has to be.
Opera
In case it's not clear, she continued to gesture as if she was still singing.
Sunburned
Because your skin cares what time it is.
What Do I Do
Agreed.
Union, Part Two
The beginning was in German.
Staring At Me
Definitely.
These Tests
Poor Deerblaze.
Stretching, Part Two
Uh, sure.
Tom
I have no idea who "Tom" was.
Walk Slow
At least he didn't get interrupted this time.
Ticking By
That works.
Cracking Eggs
I mean, I guess.
Dribble Glass
That sounds even grosser than it is.
Five Times Saltier
Me???
Back At It Again
Back at it again…
Filming
Come on, Dewspots.
Aced
Aw.
Fancy Paper
Nice.
Gray Stripes
What about khaki capris?
Hockey
Penguinmist was Scorchnose's date to prom. She didn't give Softwillow any more explanation than that. No more explanation was necessary.
Crocs
Reasonable.
I Don't Know These People #121
A happy ending…
I Don't Know These People #122
Poor ukulele.
I Don't Know These People #123
It's…in a box.
I Don't Know These People #124
Well, you won't get a chance if you never get another one.
I Don't Know These People #125
Great job.
In The Ceiling
Mysterious.
Little Planner
Sounds like a plan. Maybe if I get no planner, they'll give me no homework.
Knot
I walked into that.
Mother Nature
Same.
Octopodes
Well, okay. Anyway, yeah, according to the Internet, “octopodes” is technically the most correct, but both “octopi” and “octopuses” have become correct due to usage.
Picture Of Pizza
It was one of the scary teachers, too.
Sweet Potato
I (probably fortunately) couldn't smell it.
Peach
Well, you never know.
Thunderstorm
She was small. "Drama" meant "llama." They were actually alpacas.
Yelling
That happens fairly often.
Basketball
He's so loud.
Dead Hills
Looks like her patches are supposed to be fuzzier. Oh well.
Around Twenty
Fine.
Eraser
Aw, Murretail…
Fintastic Friday
It's unclear whether Fintastic Friday is, like, a yearly thing or just every Friday the thirteenth. Or…every Friday?
Guide
I mean, she's not wrong.
Black Olives
The pizza was mediocre but edible. The olives were sad but not bad.
Cult Ant
Short for cultural anthropology.
Haphazard
This would make a little more sense if they were designed with their hairstyles in mind. I mean, I guess it works for Inkspot.
Intimidate
I can think of at least two Pokémon jokes here, but I won't inflict them on you.
Lizards
Well, it was a cute lizard.
Have A Mouth
So do most people.
Nectar
Is that the narrator that tastes good?
Orange Juice
Well, almond milk is a thing, at least.
Only Pain
I live in a world of only figurative language.
Phone Secret
That's not good.
Plug
I guess it would.
Rick And Morty
That's an interesting way of putting it.
Robot Nonsense
He didn't try to argue this.
Still Walking
Well, okay.
Swinging
I'm not sure that's ohh-worthy.
Tomato Seeds
The babies…
Tree Trunks
That doesn't sound good.
Twelve And Thirteen
So what is the truth?
Wood Chips
There was a story behind that, but I'll spare you the details, because it was not pleasant. I’m sure you can imagine.
At The Bottom
He had just looked up the definition of “shuck,” and I guess he got stuck on the definition “the shell of a clam or oyster.”
Belated Birthday Party, Part Two
One present for each year of his life…guys, we spent $44 dollars on this party, and he refused to so much as eat a cookie.
Belated Birthday Party, Part Three
We wouldn't have gotten him a necklace, but we went to Target for the presents, and they had only one necklace out on the little stand…and it was his initial. Obviously I made it M for Moraystripe, but the necklace is his real initial.
Biggest Fan
I don't think the teacher got the joke.
Brain Of Salt
It is now.
Calves Hurt
But do they look good?
Bologna
Okay, so on one hand I don't like bologna. But on the other, I do like wasting class time, so sure, let's go.
Camper
Something like that.
Caught
Impressive.
Compliments
I didn't know it was a competition.
Consciousness
…Not sure fingers losing consciousness is the problem.
Criminal Lawyer
He meant a lawyer who is a criminal, not a lawyer for criminals. I mean, technically he meant both…
Cup Cup
It was one of those cup/string phones.
Darth Vader
Darth Vader the Death Eater. No…I am Lord Voldemort…
Dead Hills, Part Two
Undead.
Decomposing Bodies
I guess that would be a good quality to have.
Dragon
They're brothers.
Fake Fall
Just checking since no one's ever commented on this: is anyone else as infuriated by Fogfoot's design as Adderbite is? Like, I designed her to be frustrating. You do see what I'm talking about, right?
Fresh-Cut
I honestly don't know. I mean, I've never enjoyed sports, but maybe they're good to eat?
Give Us Chocolate
Give me chocolate.
How Hot
He's holding a sugar rocket. Sugar + KNO3 = sugar rocket fuel. Obligatory “don’t try this at home.”
Other Restaurants
That's good to hear.
Pikachu
She had no memory of this.
Quiet Down
Looks like we were both having bad weeks.
Sixth Book
2100…look how many 150s there are…wow…anyway, we were talking about Artemis Fowl.
COMICS 2101-2200
Breathing
Fair enough.
Ebony
Sandwich-making dad (also known as scary sandwich dad) is Stonefrost and Killdeerfrost's dad. Ebony is Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way.
Crocs, Part Two
Mistlescar's Crocs again.
Cucumbers
I think she was talking about Harvest Moon.
Dead Inside
We can finally relate.
Good Advice
Beautiful.
Fridge
Good luck…
Future Me
Adderbite: But also trees, yes.
Happy Or Thinking
I'm thinking in the rain…
Baseball Cap
Stonefrost: My hair is a mess.
Harvest Moon
Well, okay.
Pillowfoot
Actually, we looked up pillowfoot, and it's something that can happen to cats. I would try to turn this into a pillowfoot PSA, but I think just about anyone would take puffy feet as a bad sign. But yeah, if your cat's pawpads get puffy, that's pillowfoot.
Jim
He looks so much like Jim. Also, bright purple truck. I can’t draw vehicles…at all.
Instead Of Laughing
Understandable.
Not Talking
So don't even start.
Sleepable
Good idea.
Starving
I forget what game she was playing.
Raining
We went to…an art fair, I guess? in the middle of nowhere. It was August, so it was really hot and dry. But when we sat down to eat in the pizza place, there was water dripping onto our table. (We got moved.)
Something To Complain About
I see no possible way that plan could backfire.
The Color Of Boats
Hi, my name is Mallowfang, but my friends call me Serious Stonefrost. My favorite color is the color of boats and my favorite thing to do is cry. My parents were a dolphin and an engineer, which is why I live at the bottom of the Ohio River. You probably know me from my commercial for Stonefrost. I'm the one who says, "Teeth placed before the tongue give good advice!" at the very end.
Three Walls
Me neither.
Winner
For double the beauty.
Wholesale Tires
More like water with white food coloring.
Twenty-Four Carat Diamond Necklace
It was engraved, but still, immediately after saying something about a diamond necklace he came back holding a big rock.
Rave
The rave was actually a washing machine. We think. In any case it never stopped.
Advanced
Adderbite: I don't know why I thought that.
From Here
What is it with her and showers?
Gnomes
You all drink water.
Grandpa Beaver
Myotissong meant the gnawing was from a long time ago, but Cirrusflight didn't get it.
Good Times
Turtleclaw once slapped a cactus on a dare.
In English
It was one of our German vocabulary words.
Having Tea
At least she wasn't crying because it was so bad.
Corn Chips
Brick as in Brick from The Middle, although that doesn't explain why she named her bag of corn chips that.
Beach Carpet
I…don't think the saga of Jasmine ever made it onto wcf or wcrf. Let's just say it was an ill-thought-out episode of our lives.
Appear
Fun fact: because of my terrible handwriting, the sketch looks like it says "one of the furries' gifts" instead of "one of the fairies' gifts." Also, this was from our Sleeping Beauty video. This part wasn't in the video, but that's what we were talking about.
In The House
Same thing.
Opening
Well, okay.
About A Melon
Poor Blossomcloud.
Lemonhead
That was relevant.
Pediatricians
I want to know what the first argument was if that was the "also."
Sabine
Bandicootclaw just looked so…disapproving.
Shavings
No, but that didn't stop him.
Phone Numbers
If I remember correctly it at least wasn't someone creepy, but I could be remembering wrong.
Parmesan
…Okay then.
Nobody's Perfect
Of all the lyrics to mess up.
Travelers
And she didn't say they looked "like, tall." She said it the way you would say "these look like trees."
The PowerPoint
To be fair, he said this in German, and none of us (except maybe Murretail) would have known how to put it. I can say "the picture into the PowerPoint," but I'm pretty sure he had already tried that one; the teacher was not getting it.
Trust You
Aw.
Spite
By living in the fridge.
The Peach
I'm glad her lunches were so fruitful.
Club Penguin
It surprised no one that Anemonetail was that type.
Campaign Slogan
"Horse spice" is how Adderbite read the word "hospice" on a sign.
Fire Hydrant
Tangerinestream (FAKE TEALWHISKER) was supposed to find things (that weren't already intended to be art installations) and give them art-type names.
Hundreds Of Pictures
Bettafin loves taking pictures. Eyaseye showed us his four pictures--I think it was two of homework and two of his girlfriend.
Closer To This Table
Alliumwing has her own quote book; she just writes down things she hears. I let Ruestep call my comics a quote book uncontested because it was easier than explaining them to the whole cuddle puddle, although I did show both Ruestep and Lavendershine a page of them.
Circle
Well…it was an important and legitimate question.
Find And Kill
We were in the car, and it looked like she was pointing out the window.
Bring Me To Life
Panel three is a singing error on Ashtail's part, not a transcription error on mine.
I Don't Know These People #126
Why didn't you tell me it was an old joke!?
I Don't Know These People #127
I like weird bugs.
I Don't Know These People #128
Like that time I said "Adderface" and Adderbite wrote Adderface instead of her real name.
I Don't Know These People #129
Most Spice?
I Don't Know These People #130
Everything went fine.
Illegally
She was talking about downloading music. Fun fact: when I was little I thought “illegal” was spelled “illeagle,” the etymology being that it made America’s eagle sick. I had a difficult time understanding that “legal” was a word.
Massage
She actually is really good at massages.
One Chair
I don't think we went through with the chair plan.
Jeep
I guess that works.
Lip Gloss
A bunch of people were bouncing the balloon around, and she was in the middle.
Option
That's…comforting.
Swallow
Um…no…?
The Color Of Boats, Part Two
Hi, my name is Mallowfang, but my friends call me Serious Stonefrost. My favorite color is the color of boats and my favorite thing to do is cry. My parents were a dolphin and an engineer, which is why I live at the bottom of the Ohio River. You probably know me from my commercial for Stonefrost. I'm the one who says, "Teeth placed before the tongue give good advice!" at the very end.
Spray
To be fair, it does smell gross.
Running
Lorisleap is really fast. (The irony of his cat name was unintentional, but I’d love to take credit for it anyway.)
Owl
I made the noise a second time to prove it.
Rock Paper Scissors
She can get pretty enthusiastic.
Cube Ice
Crushed ice gets on mine.
Any Creature
This is not good advice for someone who likes bugs. (This was back when I was still planning to be an entomologist; I reconsidered because to study entomology you have to deal with dead things. The biggest plus physics has going for it is that you don’t have to touch gross things.)
Impression
Spotstep agreed.
Big Popsicle
It was a big stick of balsa wood. He just likes popsicles.
Contract
Anyone want some ramen?
Easily
How about something she can buhwhuheasily say?
Gore
Gruel.
Mail
Well…it would be nice if she did.
Kool-Aid
To be explained eventually.
Classical Music
LOOK COLOR CODED MUSIC NOTES Jacarandapetal found music for everyone in the car. Except me because she forgot what music I liked and this one guy because he only said he liked Mumford and Sons.
Massage, Part Two
No, she didn't mean it like that. It's funny anyway.
Never Kill
Reassuring…
Not As Good
Nothing is as good as flaming knife mom.
On The Porch
She was telling the story of the time she broke a bone (I think her arm).
Onion
There's probably a faster way to say that.
Ravioli Ranger
That…works, maybe.
Prime Seats
Of course.
Revenge
At least she puts a positive spin on it.
Saxophone
So the running into the wall part isn't good, but…
Rubber Beads
Bad idea.
Through Mud
I…okay, look, commenting on any of Lorisleap and Ambushtail's interactions without going the obvious route is pretty much impossible.
Ugh
The cap was still on, so he put the bottle against his face.
Took A Nap
I hope that's because it was a good nap, not because the baseline was that low.
Walk Around
Pokémon Go (what else?). She downloaded it within a week of saying this.
Get A Watch
2200 comics!
COMICS 2201-2300
Animals
Nice save.
A Story
I'm not sure if it was a snapchat story or, like, a story.
Greetings
Yes, Clearfeather was also addressing me. Yes, not only had we been introduced before, but Myotissong had just said my name.
Exacto Knife
Not sure that's what "pro" means, but at no point did he cut anyone, so everything was okay. I’m proud of myself; I had to confront my fear of exacto knives to make my plane.
Fried
…There was context. Also, he explained why he had smelled fried person. I don't remember enough to explain either of those, though.
Friendship Bracelet
Bandicootclaw looks mean in panel one, but he was just being grouchy.
Gym Basketballs
She meant to say, "They made one more basketball court (than their rival school)."
Leaving
Darterfang had said he was leaving to take a shower.
Kool-Aid, Part Two
And here's the explanation.
Hedgehog
Panel two is a lot of gray…oops. The speech bubble by Sonic-version Wednesdayhog says "why do you keep doing weird things to me."
Lost Paper Airplane
I think he started with ten? Or maybe the first nine were practice ones?
Nuts
That's…helpful.
Leg Day
It's everyone's leg day. Leg day every day.
Love Story
This song was playing on the restaurant's…jukebox that looked just barely too modern to be called a jukebox but I'm pretty sure it's still called a jukebox. Eyaseye said he wasn’t normally a big Taylor Swift fan, but he got caught up in the atmosphere. (Very loudly.)
Onion, Part Two
Long story short it was a kind of cooking game thing.
Perfect Shot
At least he was a good sport about it. Don't worry, his eye was fine.
Painted
To be fair, it was supposed to be face paint. But still.
Massage, Part Three
I think she gave sixteen massages (it might have been seventeen or eighteen, though).
Popping Balloons
Okay, I was going to come up with some kind of commentary, but the image code for this says "iWANtUM." I want 'um. Update: This is unfortunately no longer true due to me reuploading it. Oh well.
Massage, Part Four
…Slick…?
Running Down
The thing Barbetstrike did that made her nose run is actually in a different comic. I keep posting things in weird orders because I forget which ones are backstories.
Projectile
He had an explanation, at least. Good? That's…debatable.
Pretty Face
Anemonetail: I like how I said that like it was a bad thing.
Tree Interview
I'm sure that was the assignment, but…
Soaked
It was raining.
Glue Cap
Technically this still means the same thing.
Galloped
I don't know how he had the energy, but okay.
Hmmm
Once I woke up laughing because in my dream, I was watching a game show for elves, and the host introduced himself as Zac Elfron.
Humid
It did end up raining. Then we walked up a creek. It was cool, though.
Lightninging
Return of the small text…
Surprise Ghost
She called me Ghost for a couple of days after this.
Gross Floor
Jacarandapetal threw a card, and it landed behind the couch.
Frigidis
On today's episode of "Who Took Latin?"
Glutes
All right, then.
Lit
Sounds like a plan to me.
Need The Cheese
We all need the cheese.
Not Being Destructive
In case the tiny little fonts are too hard to read, the top sign says "No Being DESTRUCTIVE," and the bottom sign (the one Alliumwing is pointing to) says "NO Canoodling."
No Pants
I feel like the laundry part should be enough context. Also, this was sung.
Massage, Part Five
Without sounding like I'm criticizing her, it cannot be denied that Anemonetail is demanding.
Popcorn Butter
In Lavendershine's defense, it did look like a bottle of juice. However, Ruestep had just microwaved a bowl of popcorn.
Presumptive
Good luck.
Ravioli Ranger, Part Two
If you say so.
Palm Reading
He's clearly an expert. I thought that was an AC/DC song?
Pale
This is the only appropriate response to seeing Spotstep's thighs.
Never Meet
For context, it was July. Earlier that day she had offered me as much candy corn as I wanted, then gotten out the bag to find Woollyfoot had eaten all but three pieces.
Sarason
Okay, so I'm not going to tell you which cats are Sarah and Bryson, or even indeed if either/both of them has a cat design. But Sarason was their ship name.
Scarifying
"Scarifying" is actually a word, but it's scratching things (scar-ifying), not scary/terrifying.
Water Killer
I don't actually remember what she meant, but I have to assume she wasted water? Which isn't a great thing, but this is a great way of putting it.
Six Lunches
Don't let me know how that works out for you.
Real Sneeze
OKAY this might actually have been Myotissong and not Martinfeather? They're twins, I didn't actually remember this one (this happened in July), and somehow I managed to write "Martin" on the first panel and "Myotis" on the second panel. But the face fluff looked more like Martinfeather's design than Myotissong's, and since I knew Myotissong a little better (and since a couple weeks earlier), my guess is that I defaulted to Myotissong by accident and it's actually Martinfeather. Fifteen 150s I can't believe this…
Barbecue
Appetizing.
By My Sister
Hopefully not a barbecue in da Vinci.
Candy Giver
Pew? Is he Nebby all of a sudden!?
C Breezy
Well, why not?
A Brick
Long story short, it was a scavenger hunt challenge (teams) except with things to do instead of things to collect. We made the first step gathering supplies, including a piece of mulch. The last step they had to complete was to return the mulch because being a thief is wrong.
Air Refrigerator
I guess that is the most logical interpretation of the name…this was a game where people would say, "I'm bringing my _ _ to the picnic." The two words didn't necessarily have to have anything to do with each other, but every pair of two words that you were allowed to bring had to fit a pattern. "Air refrigerator" fit the pattern where the last letter of the first word was the same as the first letter of the second word.
Dead Chickens
I'm sure they are.
Glue Again
That's not good.
Lasagna
Poor…Lasagna.
Eat Me
Yay?
Naptime
She was right.
Mix
Not sure that's the metaphor. Unless she's talking about when you take the puzzle apart, but that doesn't sound like a good thing. Mixed metaphors?
Hyperdab
A dab in four dimensions. This is what hurt Barbetstrike's neck and made her nose run. I think she was seeing how many times she could dab in a minute.
Comfy
I mean, I'm not arguing.
Describe Your Experiences
As in a cool experience but a hot day.
No Cards
I…I guess this is technically correct, or at least not that wrong? But it still sounded funny.
Thoroughly
He was right.
Roasted
Obviously.
Trying To Kill
She went with having Bitter Ex poison Guy and New Girl with fake apology cookies, then eat one herself.
Yogurt
Peach yogurt?
Recycling Bin
Okay, I get that, but also what?
Over
Well…
Two Birthdays
Yes, he's talking about himself.
Nuts, Part Two
No, you can't have a nut, but you can have airborne cashews.
Varmint
Good luck…
Caterpillars
He had been considering letting someone shape his eyebrows (or whatever that's called), but he decided his caterpillars were important to him.
Braces
Ambushtail has a good point.
Banjos
This was their solution for the guy who only said he liked Mumford and Sons. Considering we were in the hills of Kentucky…
Caramel
For those wondering, Myotissong got peach, because of course someone had peach. Also, he kept coming up to me and talking about my "care-a-mel." And yeah, that's right. Caramel is "car-mel." Fight me.
Decade
I think she was talking to Ruestep. Maybe Turtleclaw or Lavendershine. We were getting ready for a "decades" dance.
Five Years
To be fair, it takes me five years to get ready in the morning, but I don't think that's what Lorisleap said.
Humidity
It wasn't a hundred percent humid, at least.
Cuddle Puddle
Poor Alliumwing.
Following
That is true.
Cheesy Floor
Well, no wonder it smelled like animals.
Machine Wash
That's so unfair.
Start
I guess this advice still applies.
Mulch
I, uh, think I messed up Ripplestream's fur in his previous appearances. I think I was making him “Silver,” but he’s actually just barely off from gray.
Sticking
I love the cuddle puddle.
Like Poetry
Sometimes I may forget how to draw cats.
Storms
He hates glitter and sand because if you get either of them on you, they're not leaving. You'll be finding glitter/sand for days. Also, if you're Amberfang, you can find corn for days. Or weeks. And leave it all at my house.
Spices
Sporty Spice…Scary Spice…More Spice…
Teleportator
Agreed.
Square Danced
Sounds as fun as square dancing gets.
Spork
Alpacapelt and Jujubefoot were pretending to have psychic powers; Alpacapelt would leave, the group would choose a person, and Jujubefoot would set up a fork, a spoon, and a knife. When Alpacapelt returned, she supposedly used a combination of utensil symbolism and psychic communication with Jujubefoot to figure out who had been chosen. By taking control over the utensils we managed to rule out any kind of signaling system--seriously, we taped them to the ceiling. We eventually figured out that Jujubefoot was mimicking the position of the person we chose. Like, if they had crossed legs, she would cross her legs, and if they were slouched over, she would slouch over.
Utensils
…In addition to the ceiling, we also taped them to Chipmunkfur's face. Don't worry, that's painter's tape, not duct tape!
That One Song
I think she might have been thinking of Wannabe (if you wanna be my lover)? But…maybe I'm only thinking that because of all the Spice Girls stuff.
The Giving Tree
Same.
Walmart Bag
This was for the Fourth of July. Also, he was wearing his regular shirt underneath the bag. He's one of those tall spindly people, so the bag wasn't even big enough to be a whole shirt, much less opaque enough.
Vibe
2300 comics! That should give you a good vibe. What happened was that someone turned off a song he was enjoying but then turned on Mr. Roboto. Obligatory mention of Slick.
COMICS 2301-2400
Bellybutton
Well, then, he technically followed your instructions.
Baking
So is mine, to be fair.
Field Trip
Seconded.
Extract
I'm a little frustrated with myself; I know there were a lot of things that happened that day that I thought would make good comics, but this is the only one I could remember! (Normally I record them either in a notebook or in the notes in my phone, but I didn’t have my phone with me, and I didn’t think to bring a notebook.) The butter extract was on the shelf with the other extracts to make horehound candy (it looks a little like rock candy, but I've never eaten it, so I don't know if it tastes like rock candy).
Hair Problem
Meaning that Jacarandapetal needed to dry her hair (we had been swimming).
Getting A Microwave
Especially Lavendershine.
Disqualified
I'm not sure if they were the first people around the first lap of the race (I didn't run but I walked in it), but I do know that after that first lap, this is what they did. Lorisleap would definitely have won if he'd just run the race; Ambushtail is pretty fast, too.
Grass On Fire
This was accomplished with a sugar rocket.
Drank Coffee
To develop the scene, factor in that Chicorygaze's voice sounds a bit like Fix-It Felix Junior but also cracks a lot.
How Is The Food
…Did I talk about this restaurant in an earlier commentary? In case I didn't, they had really good food, but service was incredibly slow. If you weren't one of the first six or so people in the door at lunchtime, a seven-inch pizza could take an hour and a half to arrive, and they had a tendency to skip people's orders.
Don't Work
I think they had fallen asleep.
Perfect Specimen
He likes rockets. Not that I don't like rockets, but I'm, like, a normal level of liking rockets? Myotissong is far beyond that.
Pickle Hater
I feel like Ruestep already had a phone in an earlier comic…I don't remember the actual color of her phone case, so I'm just going to hope that this is the first time her phone has shown up, because I can't figure out what color it would have been if it has shown up before.
Mint Chocolate Chip
Fortunately, I just happened to have the mint chocolate chip every time. She had already been planning to get mint chocolate chip, but someone was teasing her because one of her friends had gotten it.
Nasty
Lavendershine was talking to Jujubefoot.
Soap
Aw.
Shuffled
Well, that's convenient, at least.
Sanding PVC
Kind of a strange talent to have.
Plan A
Great idea.
Smelling
Wow, really?
Sastrugi
Turtleclaw was a little messy.
Trap Music
Meaning he would rather be anywhere elselistening to Metallica and/or Megadeth than sitting in the van with Ambushtail playing trap music on the radio.
Things That Are Dead
The same popcorn from earlier.
Write About
Sounds like a great idea.
Walmart Bag, Part Two
Someone (it might have been Celandinepool or Jacarandapetal, but I think it was someone who doesn't have a comic cat) painted the cotton balls on the bag blue.
Fuzzier
We (Ruestep, Turtleclaw, Whimbrelsong, and I) were playing Apples to Apples. First we played to five cards. I won. Then we played to ten cards. I won. Then we played until we were out of cards. Turtleclaw and I tied.
Balsa Wood Dust
Lorisleap: I don't inhale things.
Epic Meme
This was the "I'm bringing my _ _ to the picnic" game again; the first letter of the first word and the last letter of the second word had to match.
How Do You Sleep
Clearfeather and Darterfang.
Dump Truck
It was a dump truck, all right.
Expensive Gum
Me…
Kylo Ren
That's, uh…that's kind of what the mask looks like…! To this day I don't know who was in that Kylo Ren costume. My real handwriting finally makes an appearance, too--I wasn’t sure how to get text to curve, so I just made it myself.
Make It Worse
Okay, true.
No Pants, Part Two
…Yes, we used "pants," in the context of laundry! It was great.
Mattress
Also in a literal sense, because the mattress is higher than the floor.
Noodles
This time.
Noodles, Part Two
The suspense is thrilling…
Noodles, Part Three
Another day ends in tragedy.
Peripheral
Because that's a thing.
Popsicles
Well, he likes popsicles.
Peach Drink
Of course it was peach.
Propel
I guess that technically works. He was talking about friction, though.
Rocket Needs Heat
That doesn't sound like a good idea. Especially if you take it literally.
Secrets
There were a couple secrets I didn't want to know.
Starbucks
(shows up fifteen minutes late with Starbucks)
What Kind Of Tea
Sounds good.
Wet Sandwich
Aren't we all.
Stirring
His cooking really is a joke.
Temperature-Wise
It was even less convincing when he said it again about five minutes later word for word.
The Elevator Thing
Not sure if this only means killing someone in an elevator or if the elevator is somehow used in the murder. Either way. Don't get in an elevator with Anemonetail.
Favorite Word
Either works.
Advil
Bad advice!!! Except I guess I have no place to talk because this happened immediately after surprise laser Metallica cured my sudden mysterious illness plus overheating.
Disprove
Well, I guess.
Doughnut Holes
What kind of breakfast is he eating that that's only a part of it!?
Astonished
Just amazed.
Hot Bath
This…wonderful description is accurate, too.
Blind
It was, like, ten at night during July.
In The Moment
Did you experience a zone of being in the zone?
I Love You
I think it was because only Chipmunkfur gave her a massage, but there might not have been a reason.
Joe
Once Ashtail yelled at me because I said "ooh she slick" about a robot.
Monkey
Okay, he's right, but the desperation…
Never Told Anyone
The cat in question is named Latte. He has a second cat, but I never found out its name.
More Rockets
Someone (either Treefur or Blazingtuft) made a rocket plane.
Lost Paper Airplane, Part Two
Okay, but what about the Mistletoestone 11?
Mentality
"Group" being the whole group, not small group.
Real
I forget what exactly this was about, but I think it was gossip of some kind.
Requirements
Your agreement means nothing!
Satisfying Memes
This was her solution to only being able to bring a single epic meme to the picnic in the _ _ game.
So Mean
The cat that has never met Turtleclaw.
Slept On The Floor
Oh, wow, poor Anemonetail.
Willovator
That sounds like an experience.
Standing Up
Until they saw my sketch for this comic, neither of them realized there had been a witness for this.
Wildlife
PSA: don't hold turtles like this. If you need to move a turtle, use both hands and pick it up by its sides like a hamburger. It was a really cool place, though! Greg has an amazing home. Kind of a little cave-y thing with a small waterfall in it. We had to walk up a creek to get there, but it was worth it, even if I was wearing new sandals.
Too Hard
He wouldn't stop.
Procedure
…Oh.
Carrots
Same.
Bow Tie Tying
Bow tie flying sounds more fun.
Dunking On
Technically isn't he dunking on Radishtail?
Bathroom Door
He didn't walk in on her or anything; I don't know how this came up.
Ghost Story
That's terrifying.
Math Properties
Sweet nothings…
Mozart
Myotissong. I don't know if I've mentioned this before, but his two favorite kinds of music are classical (especially Russian classical) and trap (but only the most hardcore trap; he doesn’t like “mainstream” trap).
M&Ms
As far as I could figure out, I'm pretty sure Meerkatmask had given Jacarandapetal the M&Ms in the first place, and that's why she wouldn't accept them.
Firm
All right, then.
Keep Getting Him
This whole day was like a dream. In the sense that the memory of it is just so surreal, not that it was my "dream day."
Parking Lot
Sounds interesting.
Rare Pokémon
A true disappointment.
People's Notebooks
This happened, like, six years ago.
Rigged
The Apples to Apples game.
Rocket Science
Heavy metal that I actually liked even though Myotissong always felt the need to talk over it and tell me how terrible it was. Uh, making sugar rockets while listening to Metallica and Megadeth was another thing that should have felt surreal, but actually it didn't.
The Screaming Eagle
The Screaming Eagle was his "paper" "airplane." It was more like a wad of duct tape with paper inside of it. He threw it like a skipping stone. Of course, being a wad of duct tape, it "flew," or more accurately could be thrown.
The Toy
…I don't know.
Thinking Too Hard
But not about this sentence.
Weirdest Food
Green beans…aren't even weird…?
Whose Dress
Not sure how this was debatable. Like, they're not even sisters. One of them owned the dress and brought it. That shouldn't cause any confusion.
Same Length
Martinfeather is at least 6'4. Myotissong is legitimately tall, and Martinfeather makes Myotissong look short.
Suffer
Relatable.
Tackle
I think they were talking about the game "Get down, Mr. President!" that goes something like…everyone puts their hands on their ears, and the last person who hasn't noticed is then the president, and everyone else tackles them? (Think “nose goes,” but the thing everyone is trying to avoid is be tackled.) Thrashertail is great, but he's not the most observant person around. So I feel like he would have been the tackling target most often.
So Hot
Thank you for that information.
The Moon
So I can't actually remember whether it was Woollyfoot or the guy I didn't make a cat design for, but I'm guessing Woollyfoot because I never even came up with a name for the other guy. This was from the surreal day. I can put a general description of the day in the trivia-type things part. Also, 2400 comics--there they are. 2400 comics also means sixteen 150s, which is a lot.
COMICS 2401-2500
C Breezy, Part Two
Her real name, of course, not Citrus, but it still works.
Footies
So the color didn't turn out right on Blossomcloud in this one…
Cannoli
Bettafin loves cannolis.
Crest Toothpaste
Depending on what you mean by "good."
Great Story
It has to start with P…
Floating Logs
I'm still not totally convinced that all of Myotissong's falls were complete accidents, but he brought down the others with him every time. Not sure how clear it is that they're all falling, but I tried. Does the water look like water yet…?
Hold My Hand
Maybe this one's not a great comic. Sorry…
Group Chat
Exactly what you think it means.
Mosquito
I mean, I get it, but she was flailing at it.
Is It Alive
Truth be told, I'm not 100% confident in the dialogue here. I wasn't there for this; either Ruestep or Jujubefoot caught this on camera, and I tried to write down what I heard in the video. Now, you might think that would improve the accuracy as opposed to working from memory…but it's so hard to tell what everyone is saying…turning up the volume as high as I can bear yields this:
Anyway, I think my favorite part right now is "I know mushrooms aren't alive." Like, this one definitely wasn't anymore, but…really?
Still Love
Made sense in context, but it sounds funny.
NASA
What is there to say?
Piñata
Good idea.
Ceiling Squares
He wasn't talking about tiles.
Not A Comeback
Well, all right.
Young Trap Lord
Made of Play-Doh.
Young Trap Lord, Part Two
Fair enough.
Young Trap Lord, Part Three
I didn't look up a reference to draw the book until after I finished. Oh well.
Young Trap Lord, Part Four
Upon seeing the comic files, Adderbite told me she read every single instance of "Young" as "Yoongi."
Without Shoes
Scary.
Very Wet
We eventually got a bathmat to solve the problem.
Words Rhyme
I mean, okay.
Whoa
That works too, I guess.
Waddup
Poor Spotstep.
Twelve Days
…True.
Blueberries
Exciting.
Chicken Nuggets
Is he paid to advertise chicken or something?
Carbonated
Wow, I'm scared.
Compliment For You
I think this was to Alliumwing. It's not the most inspired compliment, but it's a pretty good one.
Donation
Not really.
A Plus
That's just 'cause you have an I.
Cupertino
I'm sure I could fix it if I cared. Update: I have done nothing to fix it. It is fixed.
Dirty Cookie
The cookie had been used for her movie.
Decomposing Bodies, Part Two
Does it really.
Green Doritos
Yes, they had been talking about Jolly Ranchers. Bandicootclaw just happened to be eating Doritos during the conversation.
Please Flush
Please do not fish.
Stairy
I think both routes were equally stairy, but that's okay.
Stop Looking Sad
Wow, he looks so happy now. I also just want you guys to know that I intentionally gave Alliumwing and Spotstep their prefixes because they have the same names respectively as Adderbite and Stonefrost. This is, like…what could have been.
Show More Emotion
Both technically work.
The Motto
The Motto is the yolo song.
Thighs
This was that same calzone from the other comics.
Something Important
Truly vital.
Metronome
Don't worry, I didn't forget to draw the Walmart bag. By this point in the day he had taken it off.
Taco Bell
He had been saying all day we should go to Taco Bell. We never did.
Sweat
…It was July. It was hot. She wasn't talking to me, but…it was July.
Weirdest Food, Part Two
Nice.
Who Is This
Okay, yes. But at the same time, what did he expect that to be?
Thumb
Poor Thrashertail.
Wrong Light
Okay then.
Why Did We
Because he's Martinfeather.
Creamed Corn
I think it was scrambled eggs.
Beats
I don't remember any beats on the bus seats, but I do remember a ukulele and a lot of singing.
Cutting Fruit
Specifically a cantaloupe.
How To Hug
I guess that's a concern, but…it's not that hard?
Went Caveman
Oh well.
Guilty
I don't remember what they were guilty of.
Banana Peel
We were about to watch fireworks. There were people giving out bananas. I wish I’d put Myotissong in the frame, but it’s hard to put cats in shorts, and also it looks weird when some cats are wearing clothes and others aren’t…I mean, they’re cats, they don’t need clothes, but it still looks weird when just some of them have them!
Baboon
Okay, fair, but it was still funny, at least at the time.
Floated
Square up.
Piñata, Part Two
What's the level after that?
Square Dance
Their faces were full of such fear.
Pecan
We were playing a game called contact. The general idea of it is that someone thinks of a word and then tries to get people closer and closer to that word by having them guess other words with the right letters.
Taco Bell, Part Two
Taco Bell over popsicles? I mean, I'm not the biggest popsicle lover, but those were some great popsicles.
Starring Another Stranger
Well…it did cure my headache. That said, I actually like Metallica, while Myotissong very much does not. And can I just say I really like the design I gave the person I didn't recognize?
Temperature-Wise, Part Two
As if he didn't say it that way on purpose.
Sharpie Throw
I should probably have made the title "Immaculate" just since I will probably never hear anyone use that word in casual conversation again.
Random Macaroni
"Macaroni" in this comic means "bowl of microwave macaroni." Also, since then I have eaten two bowls of microwave macaroni as a "meal" quite a few times. More than I would care to admit.
Smells So Good
Another ukulele…I mean, some of these ukuleles had to be the same ukulele, but how much can a single ukulele get passed around? And Aspenleaf has a ukulele, too.
My Towels
Not sure if Lavendershine ever got her towels.
Three Things
He was talking about common sense. Made this my senior quote! Hopefully they accept it even though I only attributed it to his first name.
Underwear Ant
Me neither.
Throw Cards
Of course, card throwing is more of an attic activity.
Walking Through
Why are you tryin' to sweat!?
Your Hair
Chipmunkfur was serious.
Trash Glowstick
Too late.
Broken Wing
He fixed it.
Cheese Fries
Well, so much for inner peace; there's only inner cheese here.
Flocking
I mean, if anyone would join Myotissong in rushing to the ladies, then they would be flocking.
My Favorite
I feel like we played spoons but with pencils.
Birth
…Oh.
Need Cheese
True enough.
Pecan, Part Two
This loses a lot of power as a portmanteau if you're one of those people who doesn't pronounce "pecan" as "pe-con."
Blackeyed Susan
Why?
Fanclub
The chanting of his name was in high pitched voices. Eventually I asked Aardvarknose if he knew how it had started. Apparently there was a posse of girls who were all into Ripplestream. And yes, I did eventually notice that his stripes looked like the outline of a shirt; I made the reference picture first, and stripes always look pretty different on quadruped cats and biped cats…
Cotton Candy
Onion cotton candy would be…something, all right.
Pop-Tarts
Fortunately he had multiple dollars.
Pop-Tarts, Part Two
Nice.
Roll Up
If you can do it, then go right ahead.
Spaghetti Mess
Appetizing.
Turbocharged
…A silver 2002 Beetle Sport. In addition to Myotissong and Martinfeather as Milo and Mark Michigan, the Wolfgang Wonder Boys, Myotissong’s car made it into my Waspman story as Lyle’s car (Lyle is a superhero and Carlos’s boyfriend).
Trip Over
He was dressing up as the Statue of Liberty, complete with tin foil crown.
Sweetgum Leaf
"Why do you keep doing this (putting a leaf on my head) to me?" - not Jacarandapetal (yes Wednesday Shirt)
Six Letters
To be fair, I think what she meant was that the passcode was six numbers, while “trash” was five letters, but this is what she said.
Rocket Fuel Blender
So…surreal.
Spin
Guess this doesn't make the best comic, but it was funny to witness, and also, nice glasses/earrings.
What Just Happened
In reference to losing a badminton game to some old guy.
Wing It
This was back when we started making the balsa wood planes. I did indeed wing it. My plane was far from the best, but it was pretty decent.
Wing It, Part Two
All puns are, by definition, terrible.
Voice Of An Angel
Is that the voice of Jaggedtuft?
Yarn
2500 comics…!
COMICS 2001-2100
Belated Birthday Party
Poor Moraystripe. Actually, you know what, no, not poor Moraystripe. All we wanted was to throw him a party.
Cave In
Who knows?
Camera 101
Sounds tough.
Changed My Mind
Poor Clovernose.
Brain Surgeon
This was pretty much the exact scenario Adderbite and I had already agreed needed to happen.
Bobby Pins
My real name isn't Stacey, but that's what she calls me.
New Mushrooms
There were mushrooms all over her yard.
Close Doors
Oh well.
Metaphorical
I don't know what the context was. I am probably better off not knowing.
Not Your Classroom
Poor kid.
Next To Garbage
So is the garbage metaphorical or…
People Who Program
Invisible sunglasses?
Search History
Brackenclaw said this was accurate.
Spaghetti
I feel like I messed up Kingletcloud's spots.
Sometime In The Afternoon
It kind of has to be.
Opera
In case it's not clear, she continued to gesture as if she was still singing.
Sunburned
Because your skin cares what time it is.
What Do I Do
Agreed.
Union, Part Two
The beginning was in German.
Staring At Me
Definitely.
These Tests
Poor Deerblaze.
Stretching, Part Two
Uh, sure.
Tom
I have no idea who "Tom" was.
Walk Slow
At least he didn't get interrupted this time.
Ticking By
That works.
Cracking Eggs
I mean, I guess.
Dribble Glass
That sounds even grosser than it is.
Five Times Saltier
Me???
Back At It Again
Back at it again…
Filming
Come on, Dewspots.
Aced
Aw.
Fancy Paper
Nice.
Gray Stripes
What about khaki capris?
Hockey
Penguinmist was Scorchnose's date to prom. She didn't give Softwillow any more explanation than that. No more explanation was necessary.
Crocs
Reasonable.
I Don't Know These People #121
A happy ending…
I Don't Know These People #122
Poor ukulele.
I Don't Know These People #123
It's…in a box.
I Don't Know These People #124
Well, you won't get a chance if you never get another one.
I Don't Know These People #125
Great job.
In The Ceiling
Mysterious.
Little Planner
Sounds like a plan. Maybe if I get no planner, they'll give me no homework.
Knot
I walked into that.
Mother Nature
Same.
Octopodes
Well, okay. Anyway, yeah, according to the Internet, “octopodes” is technically the most correct, but both “octopi” and “octopuses” have become correct due to usage.
Picture Of Pizza
It was one of the scary teachers, too.
Sweet Potato
I (probably fortunately) couldn't smell it.
Peach
Well, you never know.
Thunderstorm
She was small. "Drama" meant "llama." They were actually alpacas.
Yelling
That happens fairly often.
Basketball
He's so loud.
Dead Hills
Looks like her patches are supposed to be fuzzier. Oh well.
Around Twenty
Fine.
Eraser
Aw, Murretail…
Fintastic Friday
It's unclear whether Fintastic Friday is, like, a yearly thing or just every Friday the thirteenth. Or…every Friday?
Guide
I mean, she's not wrong.
Black Olives
The pizza was mediocre but edible. The olives were sad but not bad.
Cult Ant
Short for cultural anthropology.
Haphazard
This would make a little more sense if they were designed with their hairstyles in mind. I mean, I guess it works for Inkspot.
Intimidate
I can think of at least two Pokémon jokes here, but I won't inflict them on you.
Lizards
Well, it was a cute lizard.
Have A Mouth
So do most people.
Nectar
Is that the narrator that tastes good?
Orange Juice
Well, almond milk is a thing, at least.
Only Pain
I live in a world of only figurative language.
Phone Secret
That's not good.
Plug
I guess it would.
Rick And Morty
That's an interesting way of putting it.
Robot Nonsense
He didn't try to argue this.
Still Walking
Well, okay.
Swinging
I'm not sure that's ohh-worthy.
Tomato Seeds
The babies…
Tree Trunks
That doesn't sound good.
Twelve And Thirteen
So what is the truth?
Wood Chips
There was a story behind that, but I'll spare you the details, because it was not pleasant. I’m sure you can imagine.
At The Bottom
He had just looked up the definition of “shuck,” and I guess he got stuck on the definition “the shell of a clam or oyster.”
Belated Birthday Party, Part Two
One present for each year of his life…guys, we spent $44 dollars on this party, and he refused to so much as eat a cookie.
Belated Birthday Party, Part Three
We wouldn't have gotten him a necklace, but we went to Target for the presents, and they had only one necklace out on the little stand…and it was his initial. Obviously I made it M for Moraystripe, but the necklace is his real initial.
Biggest Fan
I don't think the teacher got the joke.
Brain Of Salt
It is now.
Calves Hurt
But do they look good?
Bologna
Okay, so on one hand I don't like bologna. But on the other, I do like wasting class time, so sure, let's go.
Camper
Something like that.
Caught
Impressive.
Compliments
I didn't know it was a competition.
Consciousness
…Not sure fingers losing consciousness is the problem.
Criminal Lawyer
He meant a lawyer who is a criminal, not a lawyer for criminals. I mean, technically he meant both…
Cup Cup
It was one of those cup/string phones.
Darth Vader
Darth Vader the Death Eater. No…I am Lord Voldemort…
Dead Hills, Part Two
Undead.
Decomposing Bodies
I guess that would be a good quality to have.
Dragon
They're brothers.
Fake Fall
Just checking since no one's ever commented on this: is anyone else as infuriated by Fogfoot's design as Adderbite is? Like, I designed her to be frustrating. You do see what I'm talking about, right?
Fresh-Cut
I honestly don't know. I mean, I've never enjoyed sports, but maybe they're good to eat?
Give Us Chocolate
Give me chocolate.
How Hot
He's holding a sugar rocket. Sugar + KNO3 = sugar rocket fuel. Obligatory “don’t try this at home.”
Other Restaurants
That's good to hear.
Pikachu
She had no memory of this.
Quiet Down
Looks like we were both having bad weeks.
Sixth Book
2100…look how many 150s there are…wow…anyway, we were talking about Artemis Fowl.
COMICS 2101-2200
Breathing
Fair enough.
Ebony
Sandwich-making dad (also known as scary sandwich dad) is Stonefrost and Killdeerfrost's dad. Ebony is Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way.
Crocs, Part Two
Mistlescar's Crocs again.
Cucumbers
I think she was talking about Harvest Moon.
Dead Inside
We can finally relate.
Good Advice
Beautiful.
Fridge
Good luck…
Future Me
Adderbite: But also trees, yes.
Happy Or Thinking
I'm thinking in the rain…
Baseball Cap
Stonefrost: My hair is a mess.
Harvest Moon
Well, okay.
Pillowfoot
Actually, we looked up pillowfoot, and it's something that can happen to cats. I would try to turn this into a pillowfoot PSA, but I think just about anyone would take puffy feet as a bad sign. But yeah, if your cat's pawpads get puffy, that's pillowfoot.
Jim
He looks so much like Jim. Also, bright purple truck. I can’t draw vehicles…at all.
Instead Of Laughing
Understandable.
Not Talking
So don't even start.
Sleepable
Good idea.
Starving
I forget what game she was playing.
Raining
We went to…an art fair, I guess? in the middle of nowhere. It was August, so it was really hot and dry. But when we sat down to eat in the pizza place, there was water dripping onto our table. (We got moved.)
Something To Complain About
I see no possible way that plan could backfire.
The Color Of Boats
Hi, my name is Mallowfang, but my friends call me Serious Stonefrost. My favorite color is the color of boats and my favorite thing to do is cry. My parents were a dolphin and an engineer, which is why I live at the bottom of the Ohio River. You probably know me from my commercial for Stonefrost. I'm the one who says, "Teeth placed before the tongue give good advice!" at the very end.
Three Walls
Me neither.
Winner
For double the beauty.
Wholesale Tires
More like water with white food coloring.
Twenty-Four Carat Diamond Necklace
It was engraved, but still, immediately after saying something about a diamond necklace he came back holding a big rock.
Rave
The rave was actually a washing machine. We think. In any case it never stopped.
Advanced
Adderbite: I don't know why I thought that.
From Here
What is it with her and showers?
Gnomes
You all drink water.
Grandpa Beaver
Myotissong meant the gnawing was from a long time ago, but Cirrusflight didn't get it.
Good Times
Turtleclaw once slapped a cactus on a dare.
In English
It was one of our German vocabulary words.
Having Tea
At least she wasn't crying because it was so bad.
Corn Chips
Brick as in Brick from The Middle, although that doesn't explain why she named her bag of corn chips that.
Beach Carpet
I…don't think the saga of Jasmine ever made it onto wcf or wcrf. Let's just say it was an ill-thought-out episode of our lives.
Appear
Fun fact: because of my terrible handwriting, the sketch looks like it says "one of the furries' gifts" instead of "one of the fairies' gifts." Also, this was from our Sleeping Beauty video. This part wasn't in the video, but that's what we were talking about.
In The House
Same thing.
Opening
Well, okay.
About A Melon
Poor Blossomcloud.
Lemonhead
That was relevant.
Pediatricians
I want to know what the first argument was if that was the "also."
Sabine
Bandicootclaw just looked so…disapproving.
Shavings
No, but that didn't stop him.
Phone Numbers
If I remember correctly it at least wasn't someone creepy, but I could be remembering wrong.
Parmesan
…Okay then.
Nobody's Perfect
Of all the lyrics to mess up.
Travelers
And she didn't say they looked "like, tall." She said it the way you would say "these look like trees."
The PowerPoint
To be fair, he said this in German, and none of us (except maybe Murretail) would have known how to put it. I can say "the picture into the PowerPoint," but I'm pretty sure he had already tried that one; the teacher was not getting it.
Trust You
Aw.
Spite
By living in the fridge.
The Peach
I'm glad her lunches were so fruitful.
Club Penguin
It surprised no one that Anemonetail was that type.
Campaign Slogan
"Horse spice" is how Adderbite read the word "hospice" on a sign.
Fire Hydrant
Tangerinestream (FAKE TEALWHISKER) was supposed to find things (that weren't already intended to be art installations) and give them art-type names.
Hundreds Of Pictures
Bettafin loves taking pictures. Eyaseye showed us his four pictures--I think it was two of homework and two of his girlfriend.
Closer To This Table
Alliumwing has her own quote book; she just writes down things she hears. I let Ruestep call my comics a quote book uncontested because it was easier than explaining them to the whole cuddle puddle, although I did show both Ruestep and Lavendershine a page of them.
Circle
Well…it was an important and legitimate question.
Find And Kill
We were in the car, and it looked like she was pointing out the window.
Bring Me To Life
Panel three is a singing error on Ashtail's part, not a transcription error on mine.
I Don't Know These People #126
Why didn't you tell me it was an old joke!?
I Don't Know These People #127
I like weird bugs.
I Don't Know These People #128
Like that time I said "Adderface" and Adderbite wrote Adderface instead of her real name.
I Don't Know These People #129
Most Spice?
I Don't Know These People #130
Everything went fine.
Illegally
She was talking about downloading music. Fun fact: when I was little I thought “illegal” was spelled “illeagle,” the etymology being that it made America’s eagle sick. I had a difficult time understanding that “legal” was a word.
Massage
She actually is really good at massages.
One Chair
I don't think we went through with the chair plan.
Jeep
I guess that works.
Lip Gloss
A bunch of people were bouncing the balloon around, and she was in the middle.
Option
That's…comforting.
Swallow
Um…no…?
The Color Of Boats, Part Two
Hi, my name is Mallowfang, but my friends call me Serious Stonefrost. My favorite color is the color of boats and my favorite thing to do is cry. My parents were a dolphin and an engineer, which is why I live at the bottom of the Ohio River. You probably know me from my commercial for Stonefrost. I'm the one who says, "Teeth placed before the tongue give good advice!" at the very end.
Spray
To be fair, it does smell gross.
Running
Lorisleap is really fast. (The irony of his cat name was unintentional, but I’d love to take credit for it anyway.)
Owl
I made the noise a second time to prove it.
Rock Paper Scissors
She can get pretty enthusiastic.
Cube Ice
Crushed ice gets on mine.
Any Creature
This is not good advice for someone who likes bugs. (This was back when I was still planning to be an entomologist; I reconsidered because to study entomology you have to deal with dead things. The biggest plus physics has going for it is that you don’t have to touch gross things.)
Impression
Spotstep agreed.
Big Popsicle
It was a big stick of balsa wood. He just likes popsicles.
Contract
Anyone want some ramen?
Easily
How about something she can buhwhuheasily say?
Gore
Gruel.
Well…it would be nice if she did.
Kool-Aid
To be explained eventually.
Classical Music
LOOK COLOR CODED MUSIC NOTES Jacarandapetal found music for everyone in the car. Except me because she forgot what music I liked and this one guy because he only said he liked Mumford and Sons.
Massage, Part Two
No, she didn't mean it like that. It's funny anyway.
Never Kill
Reassuring…
Not As Good
Nothing is as good as flaming knife mom.
On The Porch
She was telling the story of the time she broke a bone (I think her arm).
Onion
There's probably a faster way to say that.
Ravioli Ranger
That…works, maybe.
Prime Seats
Of course.
Revenge
At least she puts a positive spin on it.
Saxophone
So the running into the wall part isn't good, but…
Rubber Beads
Bad idea.
Through Mud
I…okay, look, commenting on any of Lorisleap and Ambushtail's interactions without going the obvious route is pretty much impossible.
Ugh
The cap was still on, so he put the bottle against his face.
Took A Nap
I hope that's because it was a good nap, not because the baseline was that low.
Walk Around
Pokémon Go (what else?). She downloaded it within a week of saying this.
Get A Watch
2200 comics!
COMICS 2201-2300
Animals
Nice save.
A Story
I'm not sure if it was a snapchat story or, like, a story.
Greetings
Yes, Clearfeather was also addressing me. Yes, not only had we been introduced before, but Myotissong had just said my name.
Exacto Knife
Not sure that's what "pro" means, but at no point did he cut anyone, so everything was okay. I’m proud of myself; I had to confront my fear of exacto knives to make my plane.
Fried
…There was context. Also, he explained why he had smelled fried person. I don't remember enough to explain either of those, though.
Friendship Bracelet
Bandicootclaw looks mean in panel one, but he was just being grouchy.
Gym Basketballs
She meant to say, "They made one more basketball court (than their rival school)."
Leaving
Darterfang had said he was leaving to take a shower.
Kool-Aid, Part Two
And here's the explanation.
Hedgehog
Panel two is a lot of gray…oops. The speech bubble by Sonic-version Wednesdayhog says "why do you keep doing weird things to me."
Lost Paper Airplane
I think he started with ten? Or maybe the first nine were practice ones?
Nuts
That's…helpful.
Leg Day
It's everyone's leg day. Leg day every day.
Love Story
This song was playing on the restaurant's…jukebox that looked just barely too modern to be called a jukebox but I'm pretty sure it's still called a jukebox. Eyaseye said he wasn’t normally a big Taylor Swift fan, but he got caught up in the atmosphere. (Very loudly.)
Onion, Part Two
Long story short it was a kind of cooking game thing.
Perfect Shot
At least he was a good sport about it. Don't worry, his eye was fine.
Painted
To be fair, it was supposed to be face paint. But still.
Massage, Part Three
I think she gave sixteen massages (it might have been seventeen or eighteen, though).
Popping Balloons
Okay, I was going to come up with some kind of commentary, but the image code for this says "iWANtUM." I want 'um. Update: This is unfortunately no longer true due to me reuploading it. Oh well.
Massage, Part Four
…Slick…?
Running Down
The thing Barbetstrike did that made her nose run is actually in a different comic. I keep posting things in weird orders because I forget which ones are backstories.
Projectile
He had an explanation, at least. Good? That's…debatable.
Pretty Face
Anemonetail: I like how I said that like it was a bad thing.
Tree Interview
I'm sure that was the assignment, but…
Soaked
It was raining.
Glue Cap
Technically this still means the same thing.
Galloped
I don't know how he had the energy, but okay.
Hmmm
Once I woke up laughing because in my dream, I was watching a game show for elves, and the host introduced himself as Zac Elfron.
Humid
It did end up raining. Then we walked up a creek. It was cool, though.
Lightninging
Return of the small text…
Surprise Ghost
She called me Ghost for a couple of days after this.
Gross Floor
Jacarandapetal threw a card, and it landed behind the couch.
Frigidis
On today's episode of "Who Took Latin?"
Glutes
All right, then.
Lit
Sounds like a plan to me.
Need The Cheese
We all need the cheese.
Not Being Destructive
In case the tiny little fonts are too hard to read, the top sign says "No Being DESTRUCTIVE," and the bottom sign (the one Alliumwing is pointing to) says "NO Canoodling."
No Pants
I feel like the laundry part should be enough context. Also, this was sung.
Massage, Part Five
Without sounding like I'm criticizing her, it cannot be denied that Anemonetail is demanding.
Popcorn Butter
In Lavendershine's defense, it did look like a bottle of juice. However, Ruestep had just microwaved a bowl of popcorn.
Presumptive
Good luck.
Ravioli Ranger, Part Two
If you say so.
Palm Reading
He's clearly an expert. I thought that was an AC/DC song?
Pale
This is the only appropriate response to seeing Spotstep's thighs.
Never Meet
For context, it was July. Earlier that day she had offered me as much candy corn as I wanted, then gotten out the bag to find Woollyfoot had eaten all but three pieces.
Sarason
Okay, so I'm not going to tell you which cats are Sarah and Bryson, or even indeed if either/both of them has a cat design. But Sarason was their ship name.
Scarifying
"Scarifying" is actually a word, but it's scratching things (scar-ifying), not scary/terrifying.
Water Killer
I don't actually remember what she meant, but I have to assume she wasted water? Which isn't a great thing, but this is a great way of putting it.
Six Lunches
Don't let me know how that works out for you.
Real Sneeze
OKAY this might actually have been Myotissong and not Martinfeather? They're twins, I didn't actually remember this one (this happened in July), and somehow I managed to write "Martin" on the first panel and "Myotis" on the second panel. But the face fluff looked more like Martinfeather's design than Myotissong's, and since I knew Myotissong a little better (and since a couple weeks earlier), my guess is that I defaulted to Myotissong by accident and it's actually Martinfeather. Fifteen 150s I can't believe this…
Barbecue
Appetizing.
By My Sister
Hopefully not a barbecue in da Vinci.
Candy Giver
Pew? Is he Nebby all of a sudden!?
C Breezy
Well, why not?
A Brick
Long story short, it was a scavenger hunt challenge (teams) except with things to do instead of things to collect. We made the first step gathering supplies, including a piece of mulch. The last step they had to complete was to return the mulch because being a thief is wrong.
Air Refrigerator
I guess that is the most logical interpretation of the name…this was a game where people would say, "I'm bringing my _ _ to the picnic." The two words didn't necessarily have to have anything to do with each other, but every pair of two words that you were allowed to bring had to fit a pattern. "Air refrigerator" fit the pattern where the last letter of the first word was the same as the first letter of the second word.
Dead Chickens
I'm sure they are.
Glue Again
That's not good.
Lasagna
Poor…Lasagna.
Eat Me
Yay?
Naptime
She was right.
Mix
Not sure that's the metaphor. Unless she's talking about when you take the puzzle apart, but that doesn't sound like a good thing. Mixed metaphors?
Hyperdab
A dab in four dimensions. This is what hurt Barbetstrike's neck and made her nose run. I think she was seeing how many times she could dab in a minute.
Comfy
I mean, I'm not arguing.
Describe Your Experiences
As in a cool experience but a hot day.
No Cards
I…I guess this is technically correct, or at least not that wrong? But it still sounded funny.
Thoroughly
He was right.
Roasted
Obviously.
Trying To Kill
She went with having Bitter Ex poison Guy and New Girl with fake apology cookies, then eat one herself.
Yogurt
Peach yogurt?
Recycling Bin
Okay, I get that, but also what?
Over
Well…
Two Birthdays
Yes, he's talking about himself.
Nuts, Part Two
No, you can't have a nut, but you can have airborne cashews.
Varmint
Good luck…
Caterpillars
He had been considering letting someone shape his eyebrows (or whatever that's called), but he decided his caterpillars were important to him.
Braces
Ambushtail has a good point.
Banjos
This was their solution for the guy who only said he liked Mumford and Sons. Considering we were in the hills of Kentucky…
Caramel
For those wondering, Myotissong got peach, because of course someone had peach. Also, he kept coming up to me and talking about my "care-a-mel." And yeah, that's right. Caramel is "car-mel." Fight me.
Decade
I think she was talking to Ruestep. Maybe Turtleclaw or Lavendershine. We were getting ready for a "decades" dance.
Five Years
To be fair, it takes me five years to get ready in the morning, but I don't think that's what Lorisleap said.
Humidity
It wasn't a hundred percent humid, at least.
Cuddle Puddle
Poor Alliumwing.
Following
That is true.
Cheesy Floor
Well, no wonder it smelled like animals.
Machine Wash
That's so unfair.
Start
I guess this advice still applies.
Mulch
I, uh, think I messed up Ripplestream's fur in his previous appearances. I think I was making him “Silver,” but he’s actually just barely off from gray.
Sticking
I love the cuddle puddle.
Like Poetry
Sometimes I may forget how to draw cats.
Storms
He hates glitter and sand because if you get either of them on you, they're not leaving. You'll be finding glitter/sand for days. Also, if you're Amberfang, you can find corn for days. Or weeks. And leave it all at my house.
Spices
Sporty Spice…Scary Spice…More Spice…
Teleportator
Agreed.
Square Danced
Sounds as fun as square dancing gets.
Spork
Alpacapelt and Jujubefoot were pretending to have psychic powers; Alpacapelt would leave, the group would choose a person, and Jujubefoot would set up a fork, a spoon, and a knife. When Alpacapelt returned, she supposedly used a combination of utensil symbolism and psychic communication with Jujubefoot to figure out who had been chosen. By taking control over the utensils we managed to rule out any kind of signaling system--seriously, we taped them to the ceiling. We eventually figured out that Jujubefoot was mimicking the position of the person we chose. Like, if they had crossed legs, she would cross her legs, and if they were slouched over, she would slouch over.
Utensils
…In addition to the ceiling, we also taped them to Chipmunkfur's face. Don't worry, that's painter's tape, not duct tape!
That One Song
I think she might have been thinking of Wannabe (if you wanna be my lover)? But…maybe I'm only thinking that because of all the Spice Girls stuff.
The Giving Tree
Same.
Walmart Bag
This was for the Fourth of July. Also, he was wearing his regular shirt underneath the bag. He's one of those tall spindly people, so the bag wasn't even big enough to be a whole shirt, much less opaque enough.
Vibe
2300 comics! That should give you a good vibe. What happened was that someone turned off a song he was enjoying but then turned on Mr. Roboto. Obligatory mention of Slick.
COMICS 2301-2400
Bellybutton
Well, then, he technically followed your instructions.
Baking
So is mine, to be fair.
Field Trip
Seconded.
Extract
I'm a little frustrated with myself; I know there were a lot of things that happened that day that I thought would make good comics, but this is the only one I could remember! (Normally I record them either in a notebook or in the notes in my phone, but I didn’t have my phone with me, and I didn’t think to bring a notebook.) The butter extract was on the shelf with the other extracts to make horehound candy (it looks a little like rock candy, but I've never eaten it, so I don't know if it tastes like rock candy).
Hair Problem
Meaning that Jacarandapetal needed to dry her hair (we had been swimming).
Getting A Microwave
Especially Lavendershine.
Disqualified
I'm not sure if they were the first people around the first lap of the race (I didn't run but I walked in it), but I do know that after that first lap, this is what they did. Lorisleap would definitely have won if he'd just run the race; Ambushtail is pretty fast, too.
Grass On Fire
This was accomplished with a sugar rocket.
Drank Coffee
To develop the scene, factor in that Chicorygaze's voice sounds a bit like Fix-It Felix Junior but also cracks a lot.
How Is The Food
…Did I talk about this restaurant in an earlier commentary? In case I didn't, they had really good food, but service was incredibly slow. If you weren't one of the first six or so people in the door at lunchtime, a seven-inch pizza could take an hour and a half to arrive, and they had a tendency to skip people's orders.
Don't Work
I think they had fallen asleep.
Perfect Specimen
He likes rockets. Not that I don't like rockets, but I'm, like, a normal level of liking rockets? Myotissong is far beyond that.
Pickle Hater
I feel like Ruestep already had a phone in an earlier comic…I don't remember the actual color of her phone case, so I'm just going to hope that this is the first time her phone has shown up, because I can't figure out what color it would have been if it has shown up before.
Mint Chocolate Chip
Fortunately, I just happened to have the mint chocolate chip every time. She had already been planning to get mint chocolate chip, but someone was teasing her because one of her friends had gotten it.
Nasty
Lavendershine was talking to Jujubefoot.
Soap
Aw.
Shuffled
Well, that's convenient, at least.
Sanding PVC
Kind of a strange talent to have.
Plan A
Great idea.
Smelling
Wow, really?
Sastrugi
Turtleclaw was a little messy.
Trap Music
Meaning he would rather be anywhere else
Things That Are Dead
The same popcorn from earlier.
Write About
Sounds like a great idea.
Walmart Bag, Part Two
Someone (it might have been Celandinepool or Jacarandapetal, but I think it was someone who doesn't have a comic cat) painted the cotton balls on the bag blue.
Fuzzier
We (Ruestep, Turtleclaw, Whimbrelsong, and I) were playing Apples to Apples. First we played to five cards. I won. Then we played to ten cards. I won. Then we played until we were out of cards. Turtleclaw and I tied.
Balsa Wood Dust
Lorisleap: I don't inhale things.
Epic Meme
This was the "I'm bringing my _ _ to the picnic" game again; the first letter of the first word and the last letter of the second word had to match.
How Do You Sleep
Clearfeather and Darterfang.
Dump Truck
It was a dump truck, all right.
Expensive Gum
Me…
Kylo Ren
That's, uh…that's kind of what the mask looks like…! To this day I don't know who was in that Kylo Ren costume. My real handwriting finally makes an appearance, too--I wasn’t sure how to get text to curve, so I just made it myself.
Make It Worse
Okay, true.
No Pants, Part Two
…Yes, we used "pants," in the context of laundry! It was great.
Mattress
Also in a literal sense, because the mattress is higher than the floor.
Noodles
This time.
Noodles, Part Two
The suspense is thrilling…
Noodles, Part Three
Another day ends in tragedy.
Peripheral
Because that's a thing.
Popsicles
Well, he likes popsicles.
Peach Drink
Of course it was peach.
Propel
I guess that technically works. He was talking about friction, though.
Rocket Needs Heat
That doesn't sound like a good idea. Especially if you take it literally.
Secrets
There were a couple secrets I didn't want to know.
Starbucks
(shows up fifteen minutes late with Starbucks)
What Kind Of Tea
Sounds good.
Wet Sandwich
Aren't we all.
Stirring
His cooking really is a joke.
Temperature-Wise
It was even less convincing when he said it again about five minutes later word for word.
The Elevator Thing
Not sure if this only means killing someone in an elevator or if the elevator is somehow used in the murder. Either way. Don't get in an elevator with Anemonetail.
Favorite Word
Either works.
Advil
Bad advice!!! Except I guess I have no place to talk because this happened immediately after surprise laser Metallica cured my sudden mysterious illness plus overheating.
Disprove
Well, I guess.
Doughnut Holes
What kind of breakfast is he eating that that's only a part of it!?
Astonished
Just amazed.
Hot Bath
This…wonderful description is accurate, too.
Blind
It was, like, ten at night during July.
In The Moment
Did you experience a zone of being in the zone?
I Love You
I think it was because only Chipmunkfur gave her a massage, but there might not have been a reason.
Joe
Once Ashtail yelled at me because I said "ooh she slick" about a robot.
Monkey
Okay, he's right, but the desperation…
Never Told Anyone
The cat in question is named Latte. He has a second cat, but I never found out its name.
More Rockets
Someone (either Treefur or Blazingtuft) made a rocket plane.
Lost Paper Airplane, Part Two
Okay, but what about the Mistletoestone 11?
Mentality
"Group" being the whole group, not small group.
Real
I forget what exactly this was about, but I think it was gossip of some kind.
Requirements
Your agreement means nothing!
Satisfying Memes
This was her solution to only being able to bring a single epic meme to the picnic in the _ _ game.
So Mean
The cat that has never met Turtleclaw.
Slept On The Floor
Oh, wow, poor Anemonetail.
Willovator
That sounds like an experience.
Standing Up
Until they saw my sketch for this comic, neither of them realized there had been a witness for this.
Wildlife
PSA: don't hold turtles like this. If you need to move a turtle, use both hands and pick it up by its sides like a hamburger. It was a really cool place, though! Greg has an amazing home. Kind of a little cave-y thing with a small waterfall in it. We had to walk up a creek to get there, but it was worth it, even if I was wearing new sandals.
Too Hard
He wouldn't stop.
Procedure
…Oh.
Carrots
Same.
Bow Tie Tying
Bow tie flying sounds more fun.
Dunking On
Technically isn't he dunking on Radishtail?
Bathroom Door
He didn't walk in on her or anything; I don't know how this came up.
Ghost Story
That's terrifying.
Math Properties
Sweet nothings…
Mozart
Myotissong. I don't know if I've mentioned this before, but his two favorite kinds of music are classical (especially Russian classical) and trap (but only the most hardcore trap; he doesn’t like “mainstream” trap).
M&Ms
As far as I could figure out, I'm pretty sure Meerkatmask had given Jacarandapetal the M&Ms in the first place, and that's why she wouldn't accept them.
Firm
All right, then.
Keep Getting Him
This whole day was like a dream. In the sense that the memory of it is just so surreal, not that it was my "dream day."
Parking Lot
Sounds interesting.
Rare Pokémon
A true disappointment.
People's Notebooks
This happened, like, six years ago.
Rigged
The Apples to Apples game.
Rocket Science
Heavy metal that I actually liked even though Myotissong always felt the need to talk over it and tell me how terrible it was. Uh, making sugar rockets while listening to Metallica and Megadeth was another thing that should have felt surreal, but actually it didn't.
The Screaming Eagle
The Screaming Eagle was his "paper" "airplane." It was more like a wad of duct tape with paper inside of it. He threw it like a skipping stone. Of course, being a wad of duct tape, it "flew," or more accurately could be thrown.
The Toy
…I don't know.
Thinking Too Hard
But not about this sentence.
Weirdest Food
Green beans…aren't even weird…?
Whose Dress
Not sure how this was debatable. Like, they're not even sisters. One of them owned the dress and brought it. That shouldn't cause any confusion.
Same Length
Martinfeather is at least 6'4. Myotissong is legitimately tall, and Martinfeather makes Myotissong look short.
Suffer
Relatable.
Tackle
I think they were talking about the game "Get down, Mr. President!" that goes something like…everyone puts their hands on their ears, and the last person who hasn't noticed is then the president, and everyone else tackles them? (Think “nose goes,” but the thing everyone is trying to avoid is be tackled.) Thrashertail is great, but he's not the most observant person around. So I feel like he would have been the tackling target most often.
So Hot
Thank you for that information.
The Moon
So I can't actually remember whether it was Woollyfoot or the guy I didn't make a cat design for, but I'm guessing Woollyfoot because I never even came up with a name for the other guy. This was from the surreal day. I can put a general description of the day in the trivia-type things part. Also, 2400 comics--there they are. 2400 comics also means sixteen 150s, which is a lot.
COMICS 2401-2500
C Breezy, Part Two
Her real name, of course, not Citrus, but it still works.
Footies
So the color didn't turn out right on Blossomcloud in this one…
Cannoli
Bettafin loves cannolis.
Crest Toothpaste
Depending on what you mean by "good."
Great Story
It has to start with P…
Floating Logs
I'm still not totally convinced that all of Myotissong's falls were complete accidents, but he brought down the others with him every time. Not sure how clear it is that they're all falling, but I tried. Does the water look like water yet…?
Hold My Hand
Maybe this one's not a great comic. Sorry…
Group Chat
Exactly what you think it means.
Mosquito
I mean, I get it, but she was flailing at it.
Is It Alive
Truth be told, I'm not 100% confident in the dialogue here. I wasn't there for this; either Ruestep or Jujubefoot caught this on camera, and I tried to write down what I heard in the video. Now, you might think that would improve the accuracy as opposed to working from memory…but it's so hard to tell what everyone is saying…turning up the volume as high as I can bear yields this:
(Thrashertail and Anemonetail are standing on the grass. Chipmunkfur walks past them, stumbling a little since she's laughing, holding a stick with a weird giant mushroom speared on the end)
Alliumwing (walking onscreen): Is it alive?
Spotstep: Is it alive?
(laughing and unintelligible words coming from Alliumwing, Anemonetail, and Chipmunkfur)
someone: (garbled) alive…?
Anemonetail: That's creepy!
Alliumwing: Yo, for a second I thought--
(Chipmunkfur throws the stick. It looks to me as if Chipmunkfur is the one who screams, but it sounds like Alliumwing's voice)
Alliumwing: For a second, I thought this part was a giant slug! (voice fading away) That’s why I scr--
someone: (might be words, might be laughter)
Spotstep (walking into frame, clapping as he says each word): You just like--
Alliumwing: I know mushrooms aren't al--
Anemonetail: IS IT A MUSHROOM (garbled) (this is where I'm wondering if I misheard something I thought I could understand--she might have said, "Is it a mushroom or not?" but "Isn't a mushroom alive?" makes as much if not more sense, and there are probably other good possibilities too)
Alliumwing: I know what a mushroom is! No, guys! Look at that! For a second--for a second when she was holding it--
Alliumwing (walking onscreen): Is it alive?
Spotstep: Is it alive?
(laughing and unintelligible words coming from Alliumwing, Anemonetail, and Chipmunkfur)
someone: (garbled) alive…?
Anemonetail: That's creepy!
Alliumwing: Yo, for a second I thought--
(Chipmunkfur throws the stick. It looks to me as if Chipmunkfur is the one who screams, but it sounds like Alliumwing's voice)
Alliumwing: For a second, I thought this part was a giant slug! (voice fading away) That’s why I scr--
someone: (might be words, might be laughter)
Spotstep (walking into frame, clapping as he says each word): You just like--
Alliumwing: I know mushrooms aren't al--
Anemonetail: IS IT A MUSHROOM (garbled) (this is where I'm wondering if I misheard something I thought I could understand--she might have said, "Is it a mushroom or not?" but "Isn't a mushroom alive?" makes as much if not more sense, and there are probably other good possibilities too)
Alliumwing: I know what a mushroom is! No, guys! Look at that! For a second--for a second when she was holding it--
Anyway, I think my favorite part right now is "I know mushrooms aren't alive." Like, this one definitely wasn't anymore, but…really?
Still Love
Made sense in context, but it sounds funny.
NASA
What is there to say?
Piñata
Good idea.
Ceiling Squares
He wasn't talking about tiles.
Not A Comeback
Well, all right.
Young Trap Lord
Made of Play-Doh.
Young Trap Lord, Part Two
Fair enough.
Young Trap Lord, Part Three
I didn't look up a reference to draw the book until after I finished. Oh well.
Young Trap Lord, Part Four
Upon seeing the comic files, Adderbite told me she read every single instance of "Young" as "Yoongi."
Without Shoes
Scary.
Very Wet
We eventually got a bathmat to solve the problem.
Words Rhyme
I mean, okay.
Whoa
That works too, I guess.
Waddup
Poor Spotstep.
Twelve Days
…True.
Blueberries
Exciting.
Chicken Nuggets
Is he paid to advertise chicken or something?
Carbonated
Wow, I'm scared.
Compliment For You
I think this was to Alliumwing. It's not the most inspired compliment, but it's a pretty good one.
Donation
Not really.
A Plus
That's just 'cause you have an I.
Cupertino
I'm sure I could fix it if I cared. Update: I have done nothing to fix it. It is fixed.
Dirty Cookie
The cookie had been used for her movie.
Decomposing Bodies, Part Two
Does it really.
Green Doritos
Yes, they had been talking about Jolly Ranchers. Bandicootclaw just happened to be eating Doritos during the conversation.
Please Flush
Please do not fish.
Stairy
I think both routes were equally stairy, but that's okay.
Stop Looking Sad
Wow, he looks so happy now. I also just want you guys to know that I intentionally gave Alliumwing and Spotstep their prefixes because they have the same names respectively as Adderbite and Stonefrost. This is, like…what could have been.
Show More Emotion
Both technically work.
The Motto
The Motto is the yolo song.
Thighs
This was that same calzone from the other comics.
Something Important
Truly vital.
Metronome
Don't worry, I didn't forget to draw the Walmart bag. By this point in the day he had taken it off.
Taco Bell
He had been saying all day we should go to Taco Bell. We never did.
Sweat
…It was July. It was hot. She wasn't talking to me, but…it was July.
Weirdest Food, Part Two
Nice.
Who Is This
Okay, yes. But at the same time, what did he expect that to be?
Thumb
Poor Thrashertail.
Wrong Light
Okay then.
Why Did We
Because he's Martinfeather.
Creamed Corn
I think it was scrambled eggs.
Beats
I don't remember any beats on the bus seats, but I do remember a ukulele and a lot of singing.
Cutting Fruit
Specifically a cantaloupe.
How To Hug
I guess that's a concern, but…it's not that hard?
Went Caveman
Oh well.
Guilty
I don't remember what they were guilty of.
Banana Peel
We were about to watch fireworks. There were people giving out bananas. I wish I’d put Myotissong in the frame, but it’s hard to put cats in shorts, and also it looks weird when some cats are wearing clothes and others aren’t…I mean, they’re cats, they don’t need clothes, but it still looks weird when just some of them have them!
Baboon
Okay, fair, but it was still funny, at least at the time.
Floated
Square up.
Piñata, Part Two
What's the level after that?
Square Dance
Their faces were full of such fear.
Pecan
We were playing a game called contact. The general idea of it is that someone thinks of a word and then tries to get people closer and closer to that word by having them guess other words with the right letters.
Taco Bell, Part Two
Taco Bell over popsicles? I mean, I'm not the biggest popsicle lover, but those were some great popsicles.
Starring Another Stranger
Well…it did cure my headache. That said, I actually like Metallica, while Myotissong very much does not. And can I just say I really like the design I gave the person I didn't recognize?
Temperature-Wise, Part Two
As if he didn't say it that way on purpose.
Sharpie Throw
I should probably have made the title "Immaculate" just since I will probably never hear anyone use that word in casual conversation again.
Random Macaroni
"Macaroni" in this comic means "bowl of microwave macaroni." Also, since then I have eaten two bowls of microwave macaroni as a "meal" quite a few times. More than I would care to admit.
Smells So Good
Another ukulele…I mean, some of these ukuleles had to be the same ukulele, but how much can a single ukulele get passed around? And Aspenleaf has a ukulele, too.
My Towels
Not sure if Lavendershine ever got her towels.
Three Things
He was talking about common sense. Made this my senior quote! Hopefully they accept it even though I only attributed it to his first name.
Underwear Ant
Me neither.
Throw Cards
Of course, card throwing is more of an attic activity.
Walking Through
Why are you tryin' to sweat!?
Your Hair
Chipmunkfur was serious.
Trash Glowstick
Too late.
Broken Wing
He fixed it.
Cheese Fries
Well, so much for inner peace; there's only inner cheese here.
Flocking
I mean, if anyone would join Myotissong in rushing to the ladies, then they would be flocking.
My Favorite
I feel like we played spoons but with pencils.
Birth
…Oh.
Need Cheese
True enough.
Pecan, Part Two
This loses a lot of power as a portmanteau if you're one of those people who doesn't pronounce "pecan" as "pe-con."
Blackeyed Susan
Why?
Fanclub
The chanting of his name was in high pitched voices. Eventually I asked Aardvarknose if he knew how it had started. Apparently there was a posse of girls who were all into Ripplestream. And yes, I did eventually notice that his stripes looked like the outline of a shirt; I made the reference picture first, and stripes always look pretty different on quadruped cats and biped cats…
Cotton Candy
Onion cotton candy would be…something, all right.
Pop-Tarts
Fortunately he had multiple dollars.
Pop-Tarts, Part Two
Nice.
Roll Up
If you can do it, then go right ahead.
Spaghetti Mess
Appetizing.
Turbocharged
…A silver 2002 Beetle Sport. In addition to Myotissong and Martinfeather as Milo and Mark Michigan, the Wolfgang Wonder Boys, Myotissong’s car made it into my Waspman story as Lyle’s car (Lyle is a superhero and Carlos’s boyfriend).
Trip Over
He was dressing up as the Statue of Liberty, complete with tin foil crown.
Sweetgum Leaf
