These two kits haven't changed one bit.
Also, I think this female fox is either Kitsune or his mate.

Re: 2018/05/30 - Mother Knows Best
I'm gonna take a wild guess and that Craig and Draig are both the Gryphon and Dragon in mortal forms.
Re: 2018/05/30 - Mother Knows Best
They're gonna have a really hard time getting to the desert temple with a mother like that
Re: 2018/05/30 - Mother Knows Best
Their mom seems nice! Oh kids and their imaginations...
Re: 2018/05/30 - Mother Knows Best
This is both deserving on so many levels and hilarious . I wonder how often they'll show up in the comic?

Probably the only fox in the world who would have them.
Douglas isn't my real name, but because of a name block put on me by a higher-order being known as Djinni, I can't say my real name.

Re: 2018/05/30 - Mother Knows Best
What’s worse than being mortal
is having a mom in command
even if, when you’re hurt,
she’ll take you by the hand
and say “It doesn’t matter, little one,
Mother will make it all better.
I’ll protect you forever, my loves”
You’ll never want to forget her.
Draig’s resentful but Craig’s a brat,
but then we knew that any way.
All kids are when forced to eat
and they’re dragged away from play.
A new dynamic has entered the mix.
The little pair? Do it all for Kix.

I bet there are 3 corgi-malamute pups whom Craig and Draig would be really good friends of

I agree Arel. It is pretty much a given at this point that they are in fact Dragon and Pete.Arel_Grim wrote:But notice there eye colors they have the same colors

Draig is Dragon. Craig is Pete (The feisty one).

Re: 2018/05/30 - Mother Knows Best
Well this nicely answers just about all my questions raised by the previous strip. I don't know if this means I should be more patient and trust everything will become clear or Rick addressed so many of my points because I asked it. No crazy hijinks or sluggy freelance? What kind of a comic is this!
I don't understand why youse guys are so fixated on the eyes and not something like them trying to retake their immortal forms. Going off eye color alone would indicate their mom is Cerberus.Arel_Grim wrote:Notice how the kits have the same colors as dragon and Pete Yellow and Green
I say the one on our left is Draig and the one wanted pop tarts is Craig because those are similar to Dragon and Pete respectively and the personality of each matches the respective demigod. Sigh, and because the eyes match.Vanice wrote:Ok so....Which is Craig and which is Draig? I don't want another who is whom problem like with Summer and Spring

Re: 2018/05/30 - Mother Knows Best
well the eyes were not the reason that i thought that it was them, the first clue that I got and that reminded me about Pete and Dragon was that they were talking about them getting there Immortal forms back and well the eyes were just more evidence to prove my theoryI don't understand why youse guys are so fixated on the eyes and not something like them trying to retake their immortal forms. Going off eye color alone would indicate their mom is Cerberus.
Re: 2018/05/30 - Mother Knows Best
People pointed it out on the discord so I'll point it out here aswell
Draig -> Dragon
Craig -> Pete
Kix -> Kixune

Even as demigods, they were brother and sister though. That ship sank pretty much when that was revealed.

Re: 2018/05/30 - Mother Knows Best
I just know I'm going to eat my words in 2 days-week, but I don't think Kix is Kitsune. To a demigod living a mortal life is seen as punishment. This would mean GK would stoop to being a fellow prisoner just to be those two's jailer. While torturing Pete and Dragon with mundaneness may get a laugh, he too would be forced to eat beetle stew, metaphorically and literally.Not A Furry wrote:People pointed it out on the discord so I'll point it out here aswell

Re: 2018/05/30 - Mother Knows Best
"Agony!!!" This is so well deserved, and so beautiful to behold I hope we get to see these two occasionally
Also, it appears their mom is part of the Opener following, which is kind of an extra cherry on top as Pete will be forced to practice the religion he founded

Re: 2018/05/30 - Mother Knows Best
Her name is Kix. Underneath the name and date of the strip are the "tags" for all the characters in that strip. If you click on them you will be taken to a page with all their apperencees and if you edit that url by adding '+' and another name, for example http://www.housepetscomic.com/character/peanut+king/, you can cross reference to see only the strips they both are in (the page will say only one character, but it is factoring in all the "+name"s that were included). By process of elimination you can determine Kix is the mother because there were Draig and Craig tags in the previous strip when mum hadn't appeared yet. Using the tags isn't foolproof for example neither Draig nor Craig have been in a strip without the other so we can't say definitively which is which, we can only make evidence backed conjecture. Same thing with the horses at the farm, we know their names without them ever being said; we don't know which one is Money for Nothing and which one is Action Replay, but the brown one is Made of Win. There are some mistakes too, like Maxwell is tagged for Muchas Smooches without being onscreen or having any lines, but mistakes like that are rare.Iceheart wrote:I need a name for fox mom because I love her so much!
Edit: Fixed spelling and added a bit more on how to use tags.

What Wallace said. Also to see the tags you have to be looking at the permanent link for the strip. They don't show up on The Main Page.

It's an in-development animated series following a team of Anthro-Dogs trapped in the Wastelands of a ruined Earth.

I think Kix has a connection to Kitsune, in some kind of way. We don't know for sure though and in what way.Champion Wallace wrote:I just know I'm going to eat my words in 2 days-week, but I don't think Kix is Kitsune.

Draig -> Dragon
Craig -> Pete
Kix -> Kixune
Also, Kitsube is technically their jailor as the game master who helped writing the contract. And Kitsune isn't bound to the mortal body like the other two. As a demigod he could still talk with King in America while doing what do I know in Australia. He said himself that he is always everywhere. I doibt aswell that the taste of food is such a big deal for him.
But the main reason why I think he is connected with Kix to have the ability to control theese two. Not just by what they do but also talking down their past memories as seen in todays strip.
P.S. this vould get really inresting when they hit the teenager time

Their mom must have the patience of a person watching a tortoise crawl through molasses while watching paint on the tortoise dry. I must commend her for her incredible patience in dealing with their nonsense. *Claps*

Also, Kix are for Trids!
Draig is the red fox with dragon-green eyes (who looked a lot chubbier in the previous strip, I guess it was the perspective) where it was revealed she had a temple in Egypt like Dragon does. So, Dragon.
Craig is the brown fox with gryphon-gold eyes who used to be Pete.
Kix has blue eyes. That's an odd color for a fox too. Might have a bit of husky in her family tree.

Kix must have the patience of a saint to have put up with these two for the past couple years and still have such a cheerful attitude. I am, however, eagerly anticipating the inevitable scary "I'm going to wash your mouth out with soap if you say one more word" mom face. :P
