Same here. There’s always the typical trope of being shocked, then breaking the news to friends, next time being spent as quickly as possible, and finally, the move ends up not happening. I dislike this type of story even more than the road trip trope. In moving stories, characters quickly develop in certain ways, only for said developments to be dropped most of the time in the future.
For example, the Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends series finale was a good send-off, but there’s a part of me that hates that it was a moving trope. Although it gets turned on its head by SPOILERS showing that Mac was merely moving to the apartment next door, a really cool plot twist, most of the episode was cushioned out with references to past episodes. Most of the episode felt sad, and there were plenty of other episodes in the series that had more finality than this.
I don’t like making assumptions that may possibly spread misinformation, but I’ll say this anyway: This may be the series finale. From what I can discern by her posts on Butterfly, Dana has been focusing much more on her personal life and advocating for the LGBTQ. Though I strongly disagree with everything the LGBTQ stands for, I don’t blame her for drifting away from Phoebe and Her Unicorn. (I love people no matter what they do in life.)
Committing to something like this while getting one’s own life together is tough. The first few months or years are fun, but once you start getting burned out for trying to juggle everything at once, that’s when a hobby becomes a chore. This could explain the large gaps between new story arcs.
Dana’s priorities are moving to a different place. This comic is a reflection of herself as a whole, but especially the Howell family. The Howells’ moving house could be a reflection of Dana’s moving on. She hates to do it, but all the same, she needs to close the book. Thoughts?
To my knowledge, this fact has yet to be proven. Marigold canonically vomits rainbows, as shown on two occasions. The first time flatulence is mentioned, Marigold says that Phoebe doesn’t notice because hers smells like flowers. One can assume that they’d be sparkly or rainbows, but as of now, there’s no official evidence of such being the case.
Forgive me, Cody. There’s a lot to read here.
