I’m really sorry that they are not coming to Yukon as I live here and already have the guest room ready for them. Maybe Hobbes is going to complete the trip on his own. Just a minute, there’s somebody at the door. I better check if ….
When I was little, I used to “pull this stunt” all the time…I would say my stuffies were missing. However, my method was just a ploy to stay up late. Calvin has a strong attachment to Hobbes, and to Calvin, Hobbes is real. As Bill Waterson says, “Hobbes is both real and a stuffed animal. Neither view is incorrect.” In this strip, one sees that if something is real, it worries you.

I think I remember how this one turns out. Hobbes will be okay, but it will be humiliating for Calvin (and I’ll say no more).

CAlvin cannot live without Hobbes, his stuffed tiger! Rememeber he abandoned Hobbes in the wood after he left and went home.

Not to worry, Hobbes is sitting under a tree sharing his “honey ‘n’ marthmallowth” sandwich with bigfoot………

I remember having adults call what was sheer terror on my part, a ‘temper tantrum’.
