Description The title is a pretty opaque reference to one of the best movies of all time XP (i.imgur.com/lbPwkjT.gif) I quite like how the first panel came out! Poor Milly, she gave rational, helpful advice and got a heaping dose of stink-eye for her trouble

Milly belongs to
Felarya belongs to
Tarynn belongs to me (fav.me/d4fv70q)

Well played sir, your have really a great sense of humor

Hahaha! Β Inhaling a bit of water while drinking is really one of the more embarrassing ways to have a coughing fit. Β That actually happens to me more than I'd care to admit. Β 


As usual I just love how clean the lines look, and how expressive and dynamic the characters are. Β TarynnΒ isΒ consistently somehow both sympathetic and hilarious in her misfortune, and Milly's helpful advice, while well-intentioned, probably wasn't much more useful than Bushy-Haired-Fairy's plant-puns. Β 


You once again prove yourself to be one of the most talented and creativeΒ contributorsΒ to the Felarya scene, perfectly capturing the tone of the setting while still managing to be very distinct. Β Awesome.

I know, me too! I feel vindicated by the number of comments of people saying it's happened to them. Makes me feel a little less foolish in my own body's failings XP The bushy-haired fairy actually was the original other character in this strip, but I felt Milly's kind, sympathetic advice was better placed than more cruelty Thank you so much for the lovely comment, from a contributor of such calibre as yourself it means a lot!

Hahah, that's just excellent XD- I love that stink-eye, even if poor Milly just wanted help...but I've been there before too XD. Β Ahh Tarynn, she goes through so much trouble but makes it so amusing. Β I feel sorry for her, and yet can't help but want to see more of her like this. Β I'm horrible XD.

Oh so that's who that is! I wondered. XD You can't quite tell without her skin tone. ^_^; Other than that I love every panel. Hillariously funny as Taryn always is. I've had the same feeling once a or twice. Recently in fact I almost chocked because I had to take horse pills with alot of water and almost drank more than I could swallow.

Hm...I don't suppose you have a stuffed nose often? That might be where the "inhaling at poor times" habit comes from.

Funny you should ask, I do actually! I have one nostril permanently blocked - which one it is depends on which side I sleep on. Nice to think I can blame it on that rather than me just being an idiot and not being able to use my body right XP

Yeah, my nose has been messed up my whole life. It's okay a lot of the time now (I still need much more tissue than most people) but I always wake up with a dry throat and have a bad habit of inhaling while drinking.
