Why Tarot should have left Peanut? In the latest times there was some tension between them, but the relation got stable and they played together... In fact it's so, Peanut is still himself eating pop corns with her (probably she makes them).

Well, given that his eyes aren't watering and the common knowledge that dogs don't have sweat glands (not sure if that applies to this comic, but until someone shows me otherwise I'll just assume that it does), I'd have to say that neither is the case. My guess would be that he just got out of a pool or something.DragoonDart wrote:What's up with Fido? I can't tell if he has tears or sweat on his face. So, is he crying (in public) over Sabrina (which makes sense given the title of the strip and the link to the thread), or was he working out or something (which makes sense because he had a towel and who the heck cries in public)?

Tarot is the Dragon's avatar, and Pete wanted Joel/King as his avatar. So naturally Tarot would be standoffish to Joel/King. That's my opinion anyway.Xane wrote:I think King picked Sabrina first because she's shown a little more sympathy for him than Tarot has. Sabrina helped him get his watch back and even threatened Fido into helping him (though I don't think King knows that). Tarot's just been standoffish and unhelpful.

Joel: We need to find out where the duel is taking place, and a way to get there.
Fox: Great. I can't get you across town, how do we get half way across the world?!?

Well, now I feel silly. That's what I get for not having a wife. I guess being outside in public in your wife's clothes would be more of what I should have leaned towards, or maybe I'm just a fail human.Prof wrote:Dunno, he wouldn't be the first *hides*Discostew wrote:It's a good think Joel isn't wearing a white-hooded sweater, because that would be suspicious.

Fido is totally heartbroken.
Well, this strip isn't nearly as dramatic as what we've had, and a lot of the discussion and speculation comes from that.ConvoyWolf wrote:Almost 3 hours and no post update? For shaaaaaame!
Kind of par for the course with all the crazy stuff that happens in Babylon Gardens. HeheheheheDiscostew wrote:Well, this strip isn't nearly as dramatic as what we've had, and a lot of the discussion and speculation comes from that.ConvoyWolf wrote:Almost 3 hours and no post update? For shaaaaaame!
Anyways, I wonder if Tarot told Peanut that Joel is King. Peanut has seen plenty of cosmic stuff in this comic, and he seems to not have a problem with some disguised human walking up to his house with Fox as he's offering him snacks. Then again, Peanut is a friendly character in general and Tarot probably just told Peanut to accommodate Fox and "the human".
Heh, that would be cool, except I know Rick does the comics weeks in advance, and he is reportedly not reading the forums during this arc. Still it would be an honor if he didwolf long fellow wrote:WhoElseButQuagmire wrote:I'm thinking its a transportation device.Discostew wrote:

Sabrina has been more sympathetic towards him. Tarot's a bit stuck up and callous.Cesco wrote:Alright, Tarot knows already everything and it's obvious why, but it's not clear the reason of why they're asking to talk to Sabrina, which knows the King's facts too, though...
There's one strip that shows King and Fox panting frantically to cool down, so I think that's a trait of Housepets! canines as well.max7345 wrote:Well, given that his eyes aren't watering and the common knowledge that dogs don't have sweat glands (not sure if that applies to this comic, but until someone shows me otherwise I'll just assume that it does), I'd have to say that neither is the case.

Yeah, I'd now noticed this looking at the strips. Sabrina cared to help King informing him with the bad news (his frustrated reply wasn't nice at all against her). Didn't go well for Tarot/Dragon in the only time she did it.Argent wrote:Sabrina has been more sympathetic towards him.

I know, but the glasses just make it look like that. Completely black, unlike Fido's glasses which have a separate outlining.Cesco wrote:Fido was obviously crying for Sabrina's leaving, as he says. What can be this important thing she has to do?

It would be really jerky of Pete if he made Joel/King keep his human lifespan so that he'd outlive Bailey.WhoElseButQuagmire wrote:Wonder if Joel would still have a human's lifespan as a dog. It would be just like Pete to turn Joel back into King and say ..."By the way...You're 28 now....given that dogs (in this reality) have a 30 year life span....

It works really well indeed. Usually shades ten to maksk emotions but for Joel it works here.GameCobra wrote:One thing I like about shades is how the light on them sometimes reflects the owner's expression. That is a common thing going on these days on comics i read and i personally find them amusing.
