Re: One Offs Set #23: Old People Jokes
And is that a female deer? It looks too big to be a fawn and it has no antlers....

But seriously, Tarot is ultra-cute the way she is. I also found it funny the local wildlife knows about her <3

Re: One Offs Set #23: Old People Jokes
I got the joke right away. and I do so enjoy a good lame pun.
It is causing me to wish to fawn over Mr. Griffin.

Re: One Offs Set #23: Old People Jokes
This made me laugh, so I'll consider it a good joke whether it is a lame pun or not
I'll take any laughs the universe, or Rick in this case, will give me.

Re: One Offs Set #23: Old People Jokes
The deer look like kangaroos..... Awesome.
I am loving these one offs just as much as the others. I just like one offs in general.
And Tarot caters to the wildlife? I thought that was the job of The Opener Of Ways!

Re: One Offs Set #23: Old People Jokes
Actually it doesn't surprise me at all that Tarot would know and cater to Wildlife since she lives with Sabrina and Sabrina takes care of wildlife (well mostly gives them to Fido anyway) and is well known to them.
Re: One Offs Set #23: Old People Jokes
I don't get it I mean, I do, but I doubt it's what I'm supposed to get xD Could someone explain the lame pun to me?
... at least Tarot is cute

Think of where she's seeing those three family members. Poor deer...Alex wrote:I don't get it

Well, Tarot is looking into the future, so it could be children?Kitch wrote:Think of where she's seeing those three family members. Poor deer...Alex wrote:I don't get it
So here we have a doe that doesn't have any bread. If the deer paid with its horns, then I guess the buck stops there. Or maybe it's just fawn and games?

Re: One Offs Set #23: Old People Jokes
Isn't it because "dear" is pronounced the same way as "deer"? She said "dear" 3 times, and she saw 3 deers in the crystal ball. That's the pun, I think...
Also, her eyes didn't turn green. She's not actually seeing in the future, the deer paid her for nothing!

Re: One Offs Set #23: Old People Jokes
But the Deer didn't pay her (as far as I can see) and ever since Theme Park World we've known that seeing the Future is something that can be learned she wouldn't need Dragon. Though its unknown how this is done or if you need to have magical talent before hand.Alex wrote:Isn't it because "dear" is pronounced the same way as "deer"?

Re: One Offs Set #23: Old People Jokes
But her eyes glow green when she's using her own powers, not the Dragon's powers.

Re: One Offs Set #23: Old People Jokes
Edit: I read Alex's post wrong. Alex anytime her eyes are green she is Channeling Dragon she is using Dragons powers there and trying to teach Sabrina to see the future on her own.
Re: One Offs Set #23: Old People Jokes
Are you sure? I thought her eyes glow green when she uses her powers. Like when she looked for the remote, did she really need to channel the Dragon back then?IceKitsune wrote:Edit: I read Alex's post wrong.

Re: One Offs Set #23: Old People Jokes
Considering Dragons speech bubbles were green and her eyes were completely Green when she was transforming into Dragon yes I would say that's the truth. Plus she was talking to/needed "The Spirits" a.k.a. Dragon when she was looking for the Remote,Telling that Prophecy at the end of n-pile date, and everything she did in Imaginate Too! as well. All times when her eyes were Green.
Most of her powers come from Dragon we are just not sure how many do. It might be all or it might only be a few. So considering that seeing the future is something that can be learned, as seen with Sabrina, its likely she knows how to do it on her own without Dragons help, though it might be weaker/less accurate then when she is using her help.
Edit: clarified somethings

I think the crystal ball makes it easier, so she doesn't need Dragon's power, but everything else does.

Re: One Offs Set #23: Old People Jokes
Actually I was wondering if it would distract from the joke if I had her eyes glow green but apparently I was wrong and just the opposite happened.
You remember when her eyes glowed in the theme park strip, where everyone wouldn't just let that be, either?

Re: One Offs Set #23: Old People Jokes
I just assumed her eyes weren't glowing because she was using a crystal ball. In the theme park strip she was doing it without any aid whatsoever.

I just went back to remember: I count at least 4 comments that asked and 2 of them with plenty of responding comments with Sabrina in the mix @_@rickgriffin wrote:Actually I was wondering if it would distract from the joke if I had her eyes glow green but apparently I was wrong and just the opposite happened.

Some common themes just take awhile for the fans to get use to. Considering you're not able to get certain tasks done enough, Tarot for example wouldn't be asked about the eye thing much at all eventually.
But no matter what, fans will ask regardless. <.< Whether they are new or not is debatable.

Re: One Offs Set #23: Old People Jokes
to anyone who wanted to see Tarot's eyes turn green when she uses her powers:
you're welcome

Re: One Offs Set #23: Old People Jokes
I read this strip first thing in the morning and didn't "get it" till 3:29 this evening. I'm so ashamed... ;_;
Re: One Offs Set #23: Old People Jokes
I managed to catch up with my translations. This latest comic was a real young charming woman

Aww, it's so cute! <3 They look so excited.
I was going to wonder how Keys got up there, but then I realized (s)he's a cat.
