Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for September 27, 2014

So, does that mean Marigold is going to give Phoebe anextraordinarily dexterous tail, too ?

Phoebe, be careful what you ask for!(Phoebe with an extraodinarily dexterous tail is hard to imagine, but I bet Dana can draw it if need be — we shall see)

Dana, your skill at capturing exactly the right expression on the characters’ faces is awesome.

“She cannot use magic to help someone become talented.”-I called that one yesterday. And now you know why. Read again what Marigold said in panel one.

“Extraordinarily Dextrous Tail” sounds like a unicorn name.

Reminds me of a friend who took cartoons too seriously and, when watching Bugs Bunny play Liszt’s Hungarian Rhapsody No 2, said it should be impossible for that to be played with only eight fingers.

Kim, don’t show your friend My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. They have a pony on there who plays the piano with nothing but two hooves.

Another great Marigold expression in panel 3 and a good way to make her point about her tail in the last one.

It takes a lifetime to master a dextrous tail. If Phoebe was given one, at first she will only be able to yield it similarly to Millie and wag it when she’s really happy or hyper.

I see.
