It all started when Phoebe skipped a rock across a pond and accidentally hit a unicorn in the face. Improbably, this led to Phoebe being granted one wish, and using it to make the unicorn, Marigold Heavenly Nostrils, her obligational best friend. But can a vain mythical beast and a nine-year-old daydreamer really forge a connection?

Agreed.

Ah, yes. I’m sure that makes a difference. Although sometimes a good “ptoo” might be called for as well.
(For those who are wondering — as I was at first — the reason that Marigold was not mesmerized by her awesome reflection in the water is that the surface is disturbed by many ripples. Check out the nature of the reflections in the long shots in ;panels 1 and 5)
Thank you Dana for this wonderful strip — the whole series. I love it!

Pff. They should really be tossing dwarves.

What if Marigold will hit a unicorn with the rock she skipped across a pond? Oh wait…

Marigold should try tossing the rock with her horn, then try to break a record. Its not the skip, its the force and energy expelled inside your body thats therapeutic. Like punching an aluminum can or going for a jog. Im just glad Phoebe skips stones. Any thing safer would have never hit a unicorn and any thing more violent would have landed her in trouble.

Hey Random thought, What if Phoebe teaches Marigold how to skip stones and they hit an OTHER unicorn? What then? does it get sent to Dakota? Does it grant Marigold a wish? Does Phoebe get TWO unicorns?

When upset, hug your equine. It is much more effective.
Hippotherapy is now being used to treat PTSD (as seen in recent presidential parade).

Gotta turn your head quickly, then ptoo.

I love my opposable thumbs! Though then again, Heavenly, you can always use your horn as a base for a sling shot, and then launch it!

What if Marigold skips a rock with magic and it hits Dakota?

@Luuuuuuuuuuuuu
It’s really hard to skip dwarves across a pond. Best I’ve ever managed is three skips before they sink!
Happy, happy, happy!!!

This strip is not loading into my cue, and i don’t know why.
And i am not happy about it…
davidf42 said, 5 months ago
@Happy, happy, happy!!!
It probably is loading, but it only shows up if the last strip is current. Dana has not posted today’s strip yet. This one here is actually yesterday’s. She promised yesterday that she would catch up soon.
