Re: 2016/03/21 - Bun on the Run

Cute full-body-from-the-back shot of Zach on that last panel. I like how it was drawn so well you can tell from his posture what his feelings at that moment are - the ears, slumped shoulders, etc. Not sure I've seen that sort of depiction before, or at least not for that character. Given how long th...

Re: "Which housepets! character are you" quiz

Without taking a quiz, I would just ask folks two questions: which character would you like to be, and which character are you probably actually like? For example, I'd like to be Great Kitsune - clever, witty charming - but I think I'm more like Miles - older, responsible, good natured but a bit clu...
