Description
Please tell me I'm not the only one who got choked up at that scene!
If you don't know El Goonish Shive [link] the joke is that the girl on the left is part squirrel.
If you don't know Sword In the Stone I can't really explain it to you.
P.S. My eternal thanks to for giving the story a happy ending! [link]
EDIT: if you haven't seen the scene: you can watch it here. ht*tp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=*pBeG1uK3Tdo
dA's emoticons won't let the link work normally. Just copy the address above into your browser and remove the *'s
Made by photoediting elements from Dan Shive's excellent comic to fit my lame joke.

I don't think I ever cried over another character that had only been around for 5 minutes before. She certainly stole my heart--she's one of my favorite Disney characters.

A really sad scene indeed. When i first saw this as a kid i had a similar reaction.
Oh well, love the features and the rain
ps: i heard someone had a fanfic story based on this written or something?

I don't know anything about said fanfic, but I wouldn't be surprised.

I get it, that scene when Arthur gets turned into a squirrel was sweet but ended so sadly for the poor girl-squirrel

Yeah, there's been some interesting $#!@ lately!

And it already was to start with, I'll try to catch up after the Holidays.

There's one scene where Merlin turns young Arthur into a squirrel. While he's so transformed, a female squirrel falls in love with him. He spends most of the time trying to run away from her, but she ends up saving him from a wolf. But when the spell expires, he tries futily to explain to her where her love has disappeared to. The last shot is of him and Merlin walking off and the girl squirrel looking after them mournfully.

I just added a youTUBE like of the scene in my comments above if you're curious.

When I watch that scene, I kinda keep hoping Wart stays a squirrel and has a life with her. I also keep wishing I could cast a spell to get me out of my chores...I guess both are too much to ask for.

I always worried about the squirrel-girl. I mean, we know what happens to Wart in the future, but what about her?
... Actually, I shouldn't wonder that too hard. With Disney's mania for bad sequels lately, they just might do it!

*laughs* this is so true. it would have been nice if she was turned into a human, but let's just keep this from Disney.

i always thought it'd be awkward for the great king arthur to suddenly have guinevere show up w/ a picture of wart being snuggled by that squirrel..."Who. is. that?!"
oh, wart sucha playa...it goes to all the woodland creatures. XD

I think, without knowing the backstory, she'd have to have serious jealousy issues to get freaked by squirrel snuggling.

hahahahah 
True, SO true... that was a heart breaking moment for the female squirrel

probably. I was far more impressed by the wizardry and that funny owl. That romance stuff couldn't stand a chance

wheee, my favourite diznee movie

Really?
See, she was practically my image of the ideal woman for years!

I remember feeling as uncomfortable as Arthur by that situation, i suppose up to a certain age boys just don't like to be teased like that... or maybe that was just me

I think you're probably in the majority on this issue. I'm just weird.

Hehehe!
That's so cute!
And you're very wellcome!

You know, I had to think hard about this one because it's been a very long time since I saw the Sword in the Stone last. But in the end I got it, and it was just... awww
You are now one of the gods of my own religion (or something), side by side with *DanShive and ProfessorTomoe. You really made me want to see that movie again! Would you mind if I made a little comic myself about this joke? I'd be crediting you because the original idea is yours, of course, and linking this deviation :3

Thanks.

Come to think of it, the way things fell out with Guinevere and Lancelot, he'd have been better off sticking with the squirrel!
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, but what about all of the odd looks he would get at the round table for marrying a squrriel.

Just have him ask Merlin for a favor! [link]

I dont know if i'd trust that Merlin
