Ferret

Title text: My brother had a ferret he loved which died since I drew this strip. RIP.

Explanation

Here, the "friend" is a smasher of dreams, pulling Cueball (and his ferret) down to reality and away from their goal of flying ferrets.

Fear not, the ferret returns in 31: Barrel - Part 5.

Transcript

[A ferret with airplane wings on it]

Friend: Why on earth did you make those wings? You don't seriously think they could let your ferret fly, right?

Guy: I... of course not.

Guy: That would be pretty dumb. It's just, uh... ...a Halloween costume.

Friend: oh, okay.

Friend: Besides, who would want a pet to fly anyway?

Guy: Yeah. Pretty lame, huh?

Friend: Anyway, let's go play video games.

[Friend leaves]

[Friend is gone, and Guy is looking at ferret]

[Guy imagines ferret flying over the ocean near the beach using his makeshift wings]

Randall's original comment: My brother has a ferret. He holds it like that and generally adores it. I have to concede that it's pretty cute, if smelly.
This is the nineteenth comic posted to livejournal. The previous was 19: George Clinton. The next was 21: Kepler.

The wings are gonna have to be waay bigger if that plane is gonna fly. Davidy²²[talk] 04:23, 4 February 2013 (UTC)
