Housepets!

Going to put some time in at the gym and then come back home to get everything organized for when my summer class starts this coming monday.

It's still unclear whether or not Steward is behind all this, and if he is, whether or not he intentionally targeted and transformed Marion is up in the air too. If Steward is behind it, he could've put the coin somewhere that he'd know would allow it to get circulated into human possession. Laundro...

Spending the holiday attempting to complete games in my backlog. What Remains of Edith Finch is first on my list. Then moving on to my Pacifist run of Deltarune.

Just had another thought: Just how DID he get up the tree so fast? How much is he thinking like a squirrel? Is he in danger of losing himself to the animal he's become? Since most of the transformations have been magic, they likely come with some built-in instincts and knowledge. I recall someone s...

Even if there's nothing overt against human-pet friendships, that still doesn't mean they'll be common. It's important to remember where kids make most of their friends, ie school. While Marion is chumming around with Lois in kindergarten (if they've known each other that long), Peanut is sniffing ...

What is to stop a human from joining the pet's shenanigans like the water gun war or simply playing in the street? A younger human could possibly get made fun of or bullied by others at school or in their neighborhood for making good friends with a pet rather than fellow humans. Teenagers, specific...

Still holding out hope that this is what leads to him joining the pets; Marion's been through more than enough today. I just really wanna give him a hug. :cry: Marion looks like he's listening to them talk about being on-duty. Could there be a possibility that that he'll get optimistic and ask them ...

A few weeks ago, I passed my two spring semester classes with flying colors. Cartography and an introductory SQL class. Cartography was easy, since I’ve been studying to get a degree in GIS for a bit now and the final was just “make two presentation-quality maps with the techniques you’ve learned.” ...

Heading to a pool party at a friend's house. Not necessarily to swim; just mainly to relax outside and have some good food.

Ooh, what if the demon that came out of Hell with Keene is doing stuff behind the scenes? If it didn't have it already, could it possibly have gained some kind of power to transform humans into animals? Maybe if Lois is behind it all, the demon entered some kind of pact with her and that's how she w...

There still could be a chase, but with Marion as the one who starts running first rather than Kevin being the one who starts it. Kevin could just be looking to assist, but Marion might be so out of sorts at this point that he sees a dog, thinks 'Oh no, I know what squirrels do to dogs' and make a br...

Could Fox have possibly sent out a memo to just his coworkers about magic and the potential for situations like this to arise? I feel like Fox would want them have access to all that info just in case. A good joke would be where Kevin takes Marion straight to King and the wolves’ place, King asks hi...

Oh, Kevin doesn't know about King and Kitsune and them all? Dang. Then I'll fall back on hoping that Marion panics, runs, gets chased and they stumble upon Sabrina/Tarot like I said earlier, and things starting picking up for him from there. Or he gets taken into custody and his story gets Fox's att...

You know, I had a different thought. Kevin may be a bit flighty but he's a good egg. He sees Marion as a female squirrel, but Marion is wearing a collar of sorts and probably looks lost. He might just be able to hold his instincts enough to actually try and help rather than give chase. If this was ...

I hope Marion’s luck turns around soon, the poor squirrel hasn’t had too much good luck. The guy is at least, trying to stay calm and think things through, for which I give him credit, though I don’t know if finding someone he knew would be much help. I wonder if he still has the same scent he had ...

Maybe he'll run into the K-9's... You were right on the money. Real relieved that there's a spot of hope for him here. Definitely excited to see how this interaction between Marion and Kevin does down. How many strips are left until the end of the arc? Year 11 ends on a Sunday; is Rick going to wai...

Maybe he did, and now it's in the pocket of Marion's jeans in the laundry basket.

Maybe the coin is in the jeans that were on his bed?

I honestly think that thi, will turn out to be "for their own good" as transformations are supposed to be. If they are a female squirl, it will turn out to be for their own good. Just like being a dog was for king That’s true, it could be revealed that this is a “for their own good situat...

Yeah, I still think Marion's a boy squirrel. First because of the screencap where Rick said in the art stream to keep calling him a he, second because of his design having no female characteristics like Macsen said (and I think those running gags would be pretty funny), and third because I want him ...

Heya. I’d heard about Housepets a few years ago but never got really into it. The other week, I saw someone on a Discord server I frequent share a couple of the strips from the latest arc and that piqued my interest. I read the wiki to get an idea of who the characters are and what they’ve been thro...

This arc so far has been nonstop setbacks and shocks for Marion. Really hope that it ends with things looking a little bit up for him; a lot can happen over the course of a few strips. Maybe he tries making his way to Lois', Tarot stumbles upon him, and she sees (in multiple ways) his predicament? E...
