Today’s comic is greeted warmly.
↓ Transcript
Kaleb: Hey, Benni. Mom said you’d be out here. She also said you helped us earlier. I Think that’s awesome. Want to go get a soda?
Benni: No thanks. I’m... not really feelin’ like it.
Talitha: Oooh! You’re Flora’s kit!
Talitha: Your mom’s cubsitting me for a few days. We‘ll get to play games an’ have fun playin’ stuff together!
Kaleb: Gah!
Talitha: Oh! I found a neat picture book. I wanted to read it to Benni, but he says he’s feelin’ sad, so I’ll read it to you ‘stead!
Talitha: See! It’s called ‘Beauty an’ a Bison’ and there’s a rose on the top. It’s just like in the movie!
Benni: No thanks. I’m... not really feelin’ like it.
Talitha: Oooh! You’re Flora’s kit!

Aw Benni, sometimes Life happens in ways we don’t want it to happen. It’s not your fault big guy. *cuddle-snugs*
I must admit I’ll be very interested to know what that face Benni is making in the last panel means. I’m guessing it has something to do with the word ‘rose’ because that seems more bold than the other words. I’m honestly trying to remember if Benni (or Talitha) ever had any bad experiences with someone named Rose. A very interesting final comic for 2018. Can’t wait to see what the first comic of 2019 will bring us. ?
Flora gave benni money for him to get himself candy while she was out. This was after she told him her story about being a flower loving nudist growing up. So he went to get her flowers. But when he heard the struggle from his friends. He dropped the flowers and came to save them.
Oh. Well, I would have forgotten too, for Pete’s sake. But don’t feel bad, that is trivia compared to what you have been through, Benni.
He’s not used to having money though, he tried to do something nice and show his appreciation, then his new family fell under attack and the mention of the rose reminded him that he’d forgotten it and those kits not only hurt Kaleb and Tanya, but Flora too for it. So, even it it was a little thing, sometimes it’s the little things that make you finally break down when you’ve got a lot on your mind.
Yeah.
Oh yeah I totally forgot about that. Thanks for reminding me. ?
Thanks for reminding me. Like CedarWoods, I had forgotten about the flowers that Benni had bought for Flora.
You are vary welcome!
Poor kits. And this will certainly add whole new dimensions to the interactions from here on out. I hope Flora and Colin are up to the challenge…
the bison still exist in this world , or they are extint? is the only reason i can find to do a story that encourage an interspecie romance in a place that seem to not encourage certain attitudes.
it seams like hybrids are so far only fictional characters in this world. Considering Beast is a mix of many animals in our world. a Bison wouldn’t be a normal person in the context of that story. The other hybrid is the silly Dingo Roo for the Chuck E Cheese inspired place everyone went to.
Talitha is a cute raccoon kit(?). It’s too bad she was sexually abused before she came to live with Flora and company.

How did that wind up there? It was supposed to be here
From the looks on Benni’s face, he just realized that he left Flora’s gift at the scene of the crime and is about to have a major meltdown. I hope that Flora and Colin can handle what happened to their kits and become stronger parents in the process. However, I feel sorry for Hunter, there is a good chance that he might be unintentionally ignored and left in the dark. As for Jestan and LaRoy, they’ll be lucky if they are given community service and made to go to counseling, worst case, they’ll be sent to juvie until they are… Read more »
The hug was actually pretty cute 😀
What movie is she talking about anyways?
