Nuzzling! 'tis the cutest, squee-inducing thing ever!

So i call dibs on the glomping then.

Also, ALL HAIL THE PAGE KING. @_@

Darn! That had so much potential...

Instead of that, will there be an arc in which Peanut and Joey team up to become astronauts, race Soviet cosmonaut kitties (the comic being set in an alternate universe) to the moon, team up with the Sovs to fight the Moon Men and their Robot Army, and then hand off the effort to a United Nations Space Forces Battle Squadron?

Yes.
And then they all find $20.

SO. I know I already said this on IRC, but it's very important to me:

I noticed that in the last panel of the one with the Unicorn statue, Sasha says "I AM a Girl!" but then she adds "I think..." To the end of it. Could this be some incredibly clever insight into the world which Rick Griffin meticulously thought out for Housepets, perhaps an allusion to a future development? Is Sasha torn and conflicted in Gender Identity? Is this going to come up later as a massive plot development?? COULD THIS BE THE KEY???

Time will tell my friends... Time will tell...

Edit: also: 24th post woot. >:|

...Are you serious I can't believe your being serious with this you know what I refuse to believe that your serious with this this is some sort of IRC joke I'm not getting because I don't use it. But just in case you are No just No its just Sasha being an air head. Edit: I know hes not being serious he can't be but I've seen stuff like this before where people were being completely serious with ideas like this so part of me is like he might not be.

Post by **Dissension** » Tue May 18, 2010 12:38 am

Well, there has been one gender identity joke. = P

I don't think the story's going that way (for many previously-discussed reasons). Whether Raccoon is being serious is open to interpretation; he does have a "Keep on Trollin'" avatar, but I won't let that impact my judgment.

I think I have a pretty good idea of how that would have turned out...

Possibly the silliest thing I've done all week =P.

KING WHY MUST YOU BREAK CHARACTER SO EASILY

IS IT BECAUSE OF LOVE

Esquire Fox · Post by **Esquire Fox** » Wed May 19, 2010 12:03 am

Ooo, boy was I wrong.
King used his connections and education to build a pretty sweet gift!
Not exactly sure where this is headed now though =P.

I also must point out that the reference in the alt text made me laugh.

Hm. King in a darth vadar suit...

ChewyChewy · Post by **ChewyChewy** » Wed May 19, 2010 12:08 am

I still think this is no proof of romantic love, just concern based on what he's experienced of how he has it. It is an extremely nice gesture, though (although I wonder just how he got hold of all that--would have been nice to see that rather than hearing about it after the fact).... And it's good that Bino doesn't seem to be TOO upset by it--not to "get revenge" on King for "showing him up" or something....

Unfortunately...so many typos....

Buckdida · Post by **Buckdida** » Wed May 19, 2010 12:08 am

Poor Bino looks so dismayed in the second panel.

And I wonder how well Bino knows the taste of his foot.

Post by **Dissension** » Wed May 19, 2010 12:10 am

I kind of feel for Bino. Such an awesome gift must have left him feeling totally inadequate. (It may not have, but you can all humor me.) Lashing out when you feel inadequate is normal, right?

IceKitsune · Post by **IceKitsune** » Wed May 19, 2010 12:12 am

King really cares about Sasha a lot I mean to take the time to fix up a dog house like that. That's really sweet of him. Also i kind of feel sorry for Bino in the second panel he seem so crushed. But then he gets to cuddle with Sasha so I guess it evens out.

Edit: However I also agree with Chewy this is probably just King sympathizing with Sasha's situation
Edit2: wording came off as wrong fixed it

Whoa. A heater? That's pretty intense. Throw in a projector too while he's at it.

Slow-motion pillow fight.

Made me laugh so hard.

"It's what King got me for Valentine's!"

Please don't be mad at me....

EDIT: Cut them down, as most of the typos have been fixed now.

GameCobra · Post by **GameCobra** » Wed May 19, 2010 12:20 am

"And to watch Television too!"

Cute also how Sasha invites Bino to snuggle in the dog house.

Post by **Dissension** » Wed May 19, 2010 12:23 am

Slow-motion pillow fights are serious business. This you cannot deny.

Also, Rick accepts PMs, you know. You guys really don't have to drag every typo out in public view. = P

Sorry....

There are different rules for the different forums I'm on.... But I'll keep that in mind next time I see typos. Thank you.

*eyes suspiciously*

I am half expecting Bino to actual go to King for advice now

I thought those typos were intentional? to emphasize Sasha's lack of higher education.

Post by **Sleet** » Wed May 19, 2010 12:28 am

Sasha has her own doghouse now? Perhaps she'll be running from home? Gasp!

But Bino had some of them....

Anyway, they're gone now. (And how could you HEAR a TYPO anyway...? A malapropism maybe, but a TYPO...?

)

BINO go to KING for ADVICE? That would be the end of the world as we know it....
