Housepets!

I imagine we'll find out in the next strip, but I wonder how long and how much she knew and knows. Also, Kix is most certainly going down with then.

Never mess with a mother and her pups

edit: btw, I think it goes without saying, but Imma say it anyway. today's strip is hilarious

Just got done watching The Exorcist. So seeing a mother freak out over her children being under attack by demons is something I've had to witness twice tonight!

That last panel is glorious.

Also interesting to see more of Kitsune's relationship to Kix.

Oh, so he already knew where they were. I stand corrected.

I said he’d not enjoy this part,
the explanation to his heart.
The one that he does really love
is unhappy to be above.
Don’t waste your time with the talking,
there’s two cubs you should be stalking.
Of course she’s coming with you now.
You think she’d trust YOU anyhow?
The lies of Kit are back to bite
in the place where it’s never night.
In a dark time, when things are tight,
the Ferals have just joined the fight.

Can you die in Heaven?

We're about to find out.

Worse, can a demigod die at all? Kix may answer that shortly.

Judging by how casual Kitsune is when he's about to reveal he's responsible for beaming them Scotty to Heaven, I'm assuming Kix already knows Kitsune is a demigod. However, she probably doesn't know (or is maybe in denial) about Craig and Draig's status.... oh, boy things are gonna get nuts.

I'm actually a fan of Kitsune's trickester nature (think it's my Chippewa side) and was never bothered by his behavior, but yeah, he needed to be knocked down a peg.

Also, I agree. Kix and Kitsune's relationship is just such a bizarre situation, it's really intresting.

Kix: Tell me Kitsune, do you bleed? You will.

We gonna get "The Treehouse Tribe" involved in this quest? This is gonna be GOOD!

Tbh, I assumed she knows about Kitsune, because he doesn't sound like he does even try to hide that fact. Or maybe it's just a gag - "He tries to casually say that he teleported everyone to Heaven but Kix interrupted him"... But it looks like he could have already said her everything. Except for the status of the kits. She still may think they are normal cubs.

lol, Kitsune tugging on his fur because he doesn't wear clothes. I don't know why but I found it funny.

Cosmic nerds are made of silly putty, I see.

Kitsune's face in the third panel is just priceless!

I can see that...I can also see her going all Doomslayer the second she see the kits and taking out 99.9% of Eudoant's forces to rescue them!

Well.....that went well

She has a long arm.

Bye Kitsune its been nice knowing you! This conversation is going to be quite interesting.

What have we learned from this comic? You don't mess with mothers. No apex predator or divine status will save you.

Maybe Zach figured it out for her. I wouldn't be surprised if Craig was still referring to him as his "Prophet".

I'm not sure how much subjective time has passed for our cast of critters. It's been at least a couple days. I would not be surprised to find Kix has been already visited by Cerebus to explain things.

Now we sit back and see who grabs Strangling GK for their icon, if they haven't already.

The classic "maternal larynx squeeze". A confirmed attention riveter.

You're still not back on earth, maybe it's enough a fingers snap for that, as already happened. Yeah, thaere's that last thing to do, inform Kix about the lost of their kits... And now it's definitively known that they're your sons, Great Kitsune. They're left on that part of earth in danger with demons... Kix hasn't taken it so well, never mess with a mother. Eheh, that face.

You're going about this all wrong, Kix, no violence. Serve GK beetle stew.

SINDER'S BACK!

(Blows Hebrew horn)

Well it looks like that this might actually end up dealing a massive blow to the Kitsune/Kix relationship that everybody likes. I hope that they will be able to get past it!

This kind of makes me wonder how much time GK has been hanging around Kix and the Critters to help "raise" Craig and Draig. We've never really seen him at the treehouse, but judging from the the fact he's been hanging around with the geeks, he's at least been spending some amount of time on Earth pretending to be mortal.

... or we're gonna get a graphic look on how it works.

That's a good point. We don't actually know how much of that time is split between Kix and the nerds. And the arc started with Kitsune sensing Eudoant's arrival during D&D, so we know that he's still spending time around them on a regular basis. It could be straining his relationship with Kix for all we know.

Judging by the fact that Kitsune doesn't need to explain what went wrong and Kix instantly knows that it is his fault I would say he doesn't have to pretend to be a mortal around her. Or around Lester since when he partook in one of Kitsune's D&D games his mind ended up getting shattered.

But... That's exactly why he keeps the pretence up around Lester. Shattering minds - even his - is not a nice thing to do.

I’m imagining a squeaky chew-toy noise coming from his neck.

Really? Because for me I was just imaging bones shattering when Kix grabbed him like that. Its not like he can die while he is in Heaven right now since he would just come back.

Bailey was first, and now Kix too,
Choking out mammals who
Get in the way of them and their kits,
So watch out when they're having fits.

GK's affliction's paw-in-mouth,
And for him, things quickly go south
So now his beau's got him by the neck
Because he left their kits to be got by Heck.

I can't even IMAGINE how much more infuriated Kix will be when she finds out Kitsune was supposed to be watching Hell to make sure that something like this never happened.

I'm sure under any other circumstances everybody would just find that hilarious.
