First!And Kiwi, pls put away the knife

I’d sweat too, if someone had a hatchet near my throat.

Why does Kiwi have that? Is it actually something else? I’m so confused, I thought this was a wholesome comic.

Penguin is feeling down because his coffee cup is empty. I’ve actually got the same feeling right now. Except the pot is empty also.

Kiwi … just this once, put down the knife. You don’t need it to help reassure Penguin.

Kiwi: we all have a friend like this. A little scary but routinely helpful. I dunno.

Tiny Kiwi with his extra-sharp edge always makes me smile; you can relax now, Penguin.

Yikes

Kiwi is there for you, at least. He will scare away the sad thoughts.

Not like that Kiwi!

Way to be there for your friend, Kiwi. I love that little guy! :-)

Kiwi you are the best, Penguin will surely appreciate the support.

Kiwi is going to give penguin a shave and clean him up. Nothing like pampered grooming to raise your spirits.

That’s one heck of a reminder.

Kiwi means well. That knife, though.

Well, that raised his spirits, Scared is more energetic than sad.
