Housepets!

Okay, I'm sick of Todd now.

Thhaaat's gonna warrant an emergency trip to the bathroom.

Todd, no, you're a red panda, not a trash panda.

"...What is that?"
"I don't really know. I think it was some sort of wrapper once."

They also said you should show common sense
(or was that another thing they forgot?)
Eating food that’s seven months out of date
is likely to make you sick on the spot.
You’re not an agent of Heaven, our Todd,
in fact, most days, you’d barely fit right in.
But go on; wind Tarot up in her home,
it’s the place your lessons can begin.
The Pom sees what you did, you hooligans,
even if she wasn’t there at the time.
You’d better hope that, when all’s well again,
no-one asks her who committed the crime...

This strip made kinda see way more of him hahahah

What color do you have when a red panda turns green? Stay tuned.

I hope Todd doesn’t get sick from eating that. I also wonder what Tarot is looking for if they’ve been there long enough that Todd got hungry and decided to raid her fridge.

He doesn't exactly strike me as the kind to wait.

Hey uh Todd? Blue Cheese Potato Salad isn't actually supposed to be, you know, blue. I suspect he'll be singing to the porcelain god aka the toilet pretty soon.

I wonder what Tarot needs to be doing in her own house?

Where else would she look for any arcane artefacts that a Demon might want? The Sandwich House?

That is true. He probably didn’t even offer to help Tarot search for whatever she’s looking for.

Wonder what Todd needs to be doing in Tarot's house?
Does Sabrina live there, too, or is dr. D'Angelo back?

Todd was teamed with Tarot.I’m pretty sure that Tarot and Sabrina live together and if Dr. D’Angelo is back he is probably up in heaven with Sabrina.

I doubt he's back, There would have been some mention of him, I'm sure. Tarots home situation, IIRC, has never really been specified. I'm not sure her owners name has even come up. Way back before we found out Devo was Lois's dog, I thought it would turn out to be Tarot.

All this time I thought that Tarot lived with Sabrina and her dad.

They might live together, I thought that there was some mention somewhere of Tarot living apart from Sabrina but I'm not sure. Sabrina's dad has been on some kind of expedition for the entire length of the strip.

It's a good thing that Tarot went at her home to look for something weird there. Well, surely Todd found something weird inside there... Eww, why are you eating that? If it has really 7 months, is it still good to you? Happy later stomachache.

I thought she did too, but they could’ve just hung out a lot because Sabrina was Tarot’s apprentice.

Is it possible for red pandas to get food poisoning? If it is I hope that Tarot tells Todd where the bathroom is.

Or they could use his projectile vomiting as a weapon against the demons that Eudoant plans to bring in.

Tarot and Sabrina's living arrangement are surprisingly mysteriously. I am pretty sure that Sabrina's owner vanished into the ether some where between her rescuing Spo and the arranged marriage, there is the possible mundane reason that his job simply takes him to remote places of the world for long periods of time but who knows how much mundane the answer is. The reason I believe he is gone is because Sabrina left a message in the past asking when he would come home, and if he was there for the whole arranged marriage business, that would reflect really poorly on him.

And why has nobody noticed that Tarot and Sabrina doesn't have any humans present, and how do they afford that house? Before the end of the game, the answer is obviously Dragon, but after it? Is Kitsune or Keene covering for them? Does Tarot have a retirement fund stashed away from her interdimensional travel agent job? Are the humans just that clueless that they haven't noticed anything about the two witches living in their neighbor?

Sabrinas owner is some kind of archeologist who has been out on an expedition for years. IIRC, his outgoing phone message defers household stuff to Sabrina. Presumably, she is getting his paychecks from whatever university employes him. Tarot is the bigger mystery since we know nothing about her past, other than Dragon.

Maybe this will be the arc in which we finally find out who Tarot's owner is or if she has one definitively!

Tarot please get yourself into the frame

In Rick's short story Housepets! 5,000 B.C, Sabrina and her owner travelled around America. Sabrina also gave some neat facts about the Housepets! universe, noting that the animal's underdeveloped capacity for problem solving caused humanity to become the dominant spieces.

True ... Including her living arrangements (until now, apparently).

Tarot's Dad is Gomez Addams? That actually makes sense on second consideration.

Maybe the Demons will find Peanut's comic and sentence him to playing the bad dog in a 3-D recreation of a Spot(Superdog) story.

That unnatural shade of blue... maybe it's not actually rotten, but from the '90s when food was random, unappetizing colors.

...In which case it'd be rotten anyway.

If it was from the 90s I am thinking that the food coloring used would have faded and it would be LETHALLY poisonous.

I wish Gomez Addams was my dad. Tarot doesn't know how good she has it when it comes to family.

What do you get when a squirrel, lynx, pomeranian and red panda walk into the Addams' house?
This page, apparently...
--
That shade of blue is more like teal,
All the better for a panda to steal-
The door is busted, the lock won't click,
So to get in, Lois, please no brick.

Seven months have flown on by
Since most of the cast went to the sky,
Seven months for demons to get ahead,
Seven months for the darned now-dead.

How exactly has it been that seven months has gone by since all of BG was moved to Heaven because Eudoant is on Earth and is planning on sucking the life force from everything that is living? According to Lois, Eudoant at MOST had a two-week start.

The time in Heaven and the time that's been in the fridge may not be connected...

That may be so but 7 months is STILL a jump.

Oh, I don't know. There's a tube of Wasabi in my fridge somewhere... I opened it 2 years ago.

Go sample some of it and see how long you last. And don't puke in the flowers.
