Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for April 26, 2021

At first I was like, oh cool, I called it, but I am surprised it’s Infernus.I’m not a fan of fan-fiction, but I was thinking, what if there’s a story where someone (Dakota maybe) dies, and Phoebe, Marigold, and Infernus have to travel to the underworld to rescue her soul.

I’m reminded of the guy from the Androgynous Pat movie who found himself attracted to Pat, and went crazy because he couldn’t tell what that said about himself.

Yay! Phoebe and Ferny, sitting in a … wait, unicorns have trouble climbing trees…

It hasn’t even been a few weeks since they last met and NOW she’s bringing this up!?

In love with a non-binary unicorn.

“4 is a good # of legs”

So she is the envy of every Pegasister then?

Jealous Marigold episode in our future!

Oh right! Now I remember.

YEEEEEES!!!! A sweet crush with the sweetest little unicorn ♡.

Wonder what Ferny would think of this? Would they approve?

“COOL” “tails are just neat” “4 is a good # of legs”

(senses awkward dialogue; finds dialogue worthy of pondering)

Interspecies crushes. A time-honored comic strip trope, but I’m not sure I remember one involving a human.

Marigold is just one of the girls, Ferny is a BOY.

Haha. Very funny.

That is a cute drawing of Ferny.

Aww! Can you call it “puppy love” if one of them is a unicorn?

SEE! SEE! I TOLD YOU!!!

I knew it.

Come on now! These are mere dalliances! Phoebe can only really find true happiness with her one true love. So where the heck is Dakota?

Ah, that’s very cool, and even better that there’s already fanart of this ’ship. (…or so I am told.)

Unicorn of…er…aren’t we getting a little Bergmanesque here? I see them by the beach, playing Chinese Checkers.

I mean, it works out, because didn’t Ferny admit once when they first met that neigh had a crush on Phoebe?

Also, it might be for the better that Marigold doesn’t know this just yet…because I could see her trying to be matchmaker and thereby meddle.

I knew it! Ferny may reciprocate that crush as well!

Nice (That’s really the important part).

Here we can see that Phoebe understands relationships better than many humans.

I wonder what Ferny’s idea of a date is.

I was thinking it would be Max. Or Sam. I’m not sure what Infernus and Marigold will think about this.

Ferny IS a sweetie.

This feels like it would play into Marigold’s desire to turn Phoebe into a unicorn.

Totally fine with someone other than Sue. sniffs Totally fine…
