Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for November 04, 2016
Transcript:
Phoebe: AH-CHOO Whoa... SPARKLES. Marigold: Oh dear. It is YOUR turn to have SPARKLE FEVER. Phoebe: But that's a UNICORN DISEASE. Marigold: It has been known to cross over. Much like that horrible plague I caught from YOU last month. Phoebe: That was a cold. Marigold: Sneezing WITHOUT a sparkle explosion. It is so... unnatural.

Good to see a new story arc starting.

A “How to Draw Marigold” picure on Dana’s deviant art pointed out that earlier strips were slightly inconsistant on the exact location of her horn. Dana called it “Wandering Horn Syndrome.” I will accept the headcanon of that being an actual unicorn disease.

A magic disease can be tricky if you don’t know about it. The properties could be very different. Also as in regular diseases some change with each species infected. One can carry it without problem while another can die from its virulence.

Yay! No more politics!
Marigold better be careful trying to figure out how to cure Phoebe. Just because something works for a unicorn doesn’t mean it’ll work the same for a human.

Well finally no more politics. But Marigold now has to worry about curing her friend… a disease like that seems like it could have side effects on a human.

Whaddday mean, “no more politics”? Obviously, Phoebe WON the election (Lord Splendid Humility probably voted for her, and with not one but TWO unicorn votes, that counts as a landslide) and so now she’s “Rainbow Sparkle Princess.”

“SPARKLE FEVER” sounds like it should have been a movie title from the late 1970s.

It would be funny if Phoebe ends up spreading it to other people.

It could be worse, it could be boogie fever. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHKCHvpYq_8Or the rockin’ pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu.

Now Phoebe has her own heavenly nostrils.

Please do politics jokes again sometime. I liked the world building bit with pixies in Unicorn City and the election faerie. Good comics.

I want someone to make that so I can sneeze sparkles! They would make a billion dollars easy selling that everywhere around the world. What child, what adult could ignore it?
.
Sneezing spiders! Now that would be great for Halloween. Of course they wouldn’t be real spiders, but something that can imitate a spider for a short time. (How much R & D for that?

I wonder if the unicorn disease of sparkle sneezing is catching? Just imagine if her whole CLASS (or at least the her rival) caught it?

I’m a male. “Horrible plague” pretty much covers ANY illness I get.

I so want sparkle fever the next time I have to come down with something!
