Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · May 9
A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. There is also a third fox, who is red. Blue and Green are standing side-by-side, as Red, Blue's mother, is facing them. Red: Would you like some homemade applesauce? Fresh nettles? A whole smoked fish? Blue: No th- Green, interrupting: Yes please. The foxes are in the same positions, but Green is now surrounded by a jar of applesauce, a packet of smoked fish, and a bag of nettle leaves. Red: How about some honey? Mushrooms? Bilberry jam? A loaf of bread? Green: Yes, yes, and yes! The offered homemade treats and gifts continue accumulating around Green. Red: Birch sap? Seed potatoes? Parsley? Some gourds from the garden? Green: Yes, thank you! As they're left by themselves, Blue turns to address Green, who is currently in the process of swallowing an entire pumpkin whole, unhingeing his jaw like a snake. Blue: Accepting everything mom gives feels like freeloading and I feel bad about it. Green: I don't.
