"Well That Was Weird"
Fen You Crack Me Up HAHA:D

Such Lovely Art, Good Job As Always Feretta!
Those Shadow Wings Are So Useful:3

I think "weird" Is her default state tbh

Yeah So True...

Sure seems like a not-Chocobo to me.

Local Fennec gets struck by lightning

ZAPPPP thud

crispy fen! >:3

tasty!

I love the back drops in each panel.

That is one fancy kite right there.

Looks more like a Filoliao from raise of shield hero.~ but the lizard head says a hybrid

Hmmm, a wild Fen kite. Or a fite, if you will. Seems appropriate.

That better not be Chocolate the Chocobo... cause if it is, she is about to make things weird.

That is certainly a new way to practice flying and magic. It doesn't look fluffy enough to be a chocabo, still kinda cute and yellow though.

That's a cute not-chocobo :)

💛💛💛💛💛😮💞

It's a Bococho.

The non-union equivalent.

That's highly adorable! ^w^

At first I thought she had sent one of the kid's up.

Then I zoomed in to double-check.

i dunno. they both have an "h" in thier name

This was the most heart warming thing I have read all day.

What is that not chocobo doing in here!!!? shh don't tell Square Enix they may send ninjas!!!

I ain't seen a single dang ninj-

OH no! I better call th-💥

"Let's go fly a fox!"
"Up through the atmosphere!"
"Up where the air is clear!"

I guess Fenfen will be good having kids of her own. She certainly is doing good distracting these kids.

the fennec is a kite

Love this page

This page makes me curious - how does the outside world view Mis' little mountain magic school? I know we've had a little interaction back a few chapters but that felt kinda pre-arranged, but what about the common folk?

Mages are mages, they do mage things, everyone knows a mage of some description. Magic use in general is pretty common in this world.

WHEEE! I'm a kite!

Fen has a rather unique definition of 'weird' if a penguin with fire magic strikes her as such, but her using her wings to let kids fly her like a kite is okay.

Cuuuuuute! Also * FF9 chocobo music begins to play *

I can just hear Prompto singing.
"I want to ride my Grahzena all day."

Reminds me of a similar situation in a different comic I read years ago... Only then it was a flying necromancer named Richard

“In other news, a travelling fennec fox turned themselves into a flying fox in order to entertain kids. Later on when asked why she did it, her response was ‘it’s good practice, both for flying, as well as keeping the little ones entertained!’”

Do the go "Kweh"?

No, they go "Grah!" - They're called Grahzena.

not going to blame, I also have "not chocobos" in my setting.
Although they look more like giant cassowaries

Yeah, these things are prehistoric chickens with a mean streak. Tame only by the technical aspect of the word.

What, the Grahzenas or cassowaries?

Death birds

Most Fennecs have this problem, only with their ears.

she can see what is head and what is hiding now

With shadows for lift and string!
You can have your own set of wings!
With your feet off the ground, you're a herm in flight!
With some kid holding strong!
To the tether that's long!

Oh, lets go fly a fox!
Don't you know, the sky is a box!
Lets go fly a fox, and send her soaring!
Up through the bubble of air!
Keeping safe all we hold dear!
Oh, lets go fly a fox!

When you send her flyin' up there!
All at once she's lighter than air!
She can see off the sides!
The only thing that divides!
From white oblivion cruel!
Cause ah some mousy tool!

Oh, lets go fly a fox!
Don't you know, the sky is a box!
Lets go fly a fox, and send her soaring!
Up through the bubble of air!
Keeping safe all we hold dear!
Oh, lets go fly a fox!

Beautifully rewritten!

Thanks.

Wark?!?!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gastornis heres the animal chocobos are based on

A Fen-fen kite? I want one!

A Fauxcobo

I say it's in no way a bird, but some form of flightless moth, based on the coloring I'd say it's based on the Death's Head moth, so it must live on a diet of honey

At least we know she's good with kids.

heh, in my mistwalker game my gm ran, they were 'tori birds not chocobos (dinotori, biig birbs, less prone then horses to being munched by mistborne monsters.)

Hah even befor i read it it reminded me to a chocobo <3
You can call it as you want but we all knew what you have done xP

If the Grahzenas come in various colorations and are completely flightless no matter what breed....then yes, they are not Chocobos since some of those DO have flight. xD

Fen "dat was weird lol"
also Fen "HEy kIDs lOoK, iM'a kiTE!"

not weird at all fen lol.

Don't mind us! Just flyin' the Fen!

Just one of those days when you happen to meet a hitchhiker who's actually an insanely powerful mage.

Those kids will have something to talk about for weeks!

I haven't read your comic in a long while due to IRL problems and things going on that have been restricting me from getting back out there but seeing this makes me really happy even on the days I'm down. SO thank you for making this amazing comic. Every time I catch a small glimps of it i get excited and filled with anticipation and the wonder of what will happen next.

So again thank you for making this comic so epic. It's helped me stay happy through some hard times.

thats not a chocoo! its a......... chacaba! yeees that.
<~<
>~>
<~<

Specifically, it's a Grahzena, a large prehistoric chicken, usually with a mean streak.

Nnoooo! Why did you have to mention chocobo!?
Now the theme is tuck in my head again!

"Look ma, I'm a kite!"

This is such an adorable and refreshing "slice of life" chapter. Not much happens, and that's okay. There are days when not much happens, in fact most days. And that makes the drama, when it occurs, that much more meaningful, and gives significance and stakes to conflict that can be felt. It shows what our heroes are fighting for. I love this story so much.

Well, even if no cohocobo, big birdies are still very nice~

Love your touching&heart-warming&sexy work that lasted nearly decade! I'm honored to know it this night, and satisfied for you're still working on it frequently!

BTW. What's the common or official name of Penpen's new home, Church of the path? Sisters of tails? Or sth.

Watch chapter3 for now. No spoiler plz

The name is being workshopped :p

Pardon please? For English's not my mother tongue, sorry...

What do you mean by ↑ being workshopped?

It means I'm working on figuring out what it's going to be named, officially.

awwww thoes little ones are adorable and awesome that Fen was showing them some magic tricks

"That was weird".....5 minutes later...."imma children's kite!"

um fen?

Well now she's just showing off.
