Re: 2020/01/15 - Talent Show

I'm trying to think of the neighborhood pets that would even want to join. I would think abusive or cruel ownership would be a catalyst. Sasha is the only one we know of that fits that bill. The working dogs, maybe, but we dont know the ownership of most of them. Maybe Bino would want to just to be...

Re: Thoughts and comments from my first read-through

The most I think was narrowed down was that Babylon Gardens is roughly 9 hours from somewhere in Kansas and that it's somewhere were it commonly snows in winter and is within the range of the Virginia Opossum. So a rather large area.

Re: 2019/12/25 - We Don't Need No Stinking Badger

Speaking of Devo, what pet does Marion have? I'm pretty sure every Babylon households has at least one. Not exactly the conclusion I would have wanted, but it’s still quite nice. Still sad Pete and Dragon didn’t play a larger role though, but at least we saw King. Looking forward to what comes next...

I highly doubt King would have understood, but I think Bailey would have. Although, being from Kansas maybe she just assumed that sort of thing might be normal in Babylon Gardens?
