Tandy loves Suzy, p11
Added 2025-01-03 05:00:09 +0000 UTCIt’s not about roles or meeting an arbitrary standard, it’s about creating something with someone you love. Minus the stepfordization and lesbians, this is more or less how Meg and I spent Thanksgiving. Our cat had been ill, so we decided to stay home. We grabbed whatever we could from our local grocery store on Thanksgiving Eve and cooked together the next day. It was a lovely meal, and our cat started eating again that morning. Also, I’d never had a capon before. It’s a male chicken. They’re castrated I guess? The humiliation makes them taste better?? Sorry, I didn’t have much to say about this page, so I went into anecdote mode.

Going into dual stepfordization, are we? I can only assume so by the swept bang Tandy's hairdo is taking on, but this is cute either way. The depth of character can be tricky to land with people in TF comics like this, but I think you definitely created a pair that feel like a real, genuine loving couple, and I have to give applause for that. Also, glad to know your cat's okay! Hopefully whatever plants she ate can be cut back or something; our furry friends need to be protected from themselves sometimes... I should know, having had to stop my cat from scratching her forehead due to an itch that developed into a low-level abscess.

Two vet visits and an ultrasound later, we never found the cause, but it was probably due to a toxic plant. Raspberry leaves are bad for cats. Lilies and poinsettias I knew about, but not this!

Briefcase, suit and hat, etc. I reject that one too, though, because that feeds into the old inaccurate trope of same sex couples: which one’s the “man” and which one’s the “woman?”
