Title Text: if you say it right, turns out you can just say anything to babies

Future parents, take note, though keep in mind that this benefit ends surprisingly fast.

[Saturn381]

So I'm gonna guess the date is at therapy?

[Krytus The Dreamer]

I find it extremely adorable to see King finally playing the daddy role

[Discostew]

Cute.

Now I hate to do this, but ...... It's time for Olive and the Color-Changing Tail!

[Welsh Halfwit]

Don’t blame young Olive, oh King,
For the dark thoughts of your thinking.
Those passions, those things you feel,
Are a weight you have to unseal.
You have to take the stress off;
You have to relieve the pressure,
You have to see the switch and press ‘off’;
You have to see tonight as a refresher.
So go, old fellow, and clear your head
Over a mighty mountain of pasta and bread
And then come home free from strife
As you recall that these guys? They are your life.

[IceKitsune]

King is such a good dad! The voice I have him saying that in my head with is sooo cute, it just makes the scene so much better.

[K K Slider]

Adorable. King will always be my favorite character!

[Douglas Collier]

Yeah, Rick, might want to check that Olive's double wasn't accidentally switched in between panels.

[Dissension]

If you'd like to report an error, it is generally better to message Rick directly than post a 'gotcha' in a thread he may not even read. ;3

[Iceheart]

Basically my philosphy with babies and and dogs. As long as it is in happy tone, you can say whatever you like to them.

[HundKatzeMaus]

If that isn't super adorable, I don't know what is
Also the things, King says here, are also super funny

[Ryusuta]

"Diplomacy is telling someone to go to hell in a way that makes them look forward to the trip."

Also, is it me or does King legit get cuter every year?

[guru4567]

Dates for parents are important! Curious to see how King's anxiety plays out this arc. He wants the date, but will he be able to trust someone else with his pups for the first time? Will Bailey?

[Frank]

...honestly I just thought the tail had a white stripe we hadn't yet seen. Olive has always appeared from her left side to date hasn't she?

But yes, King is an adorkable parent

[Iceheart]

Any bets on the sitter? I wouldn't be surprised if Karishad somehow is involved.

[OwenStarr]

Yeah, I like King's look in this one. The first panel (or cell or whatever you want to call it- I'm not very proficient in utilizing artistic vocabulary) was definitely my favorite so far.

[gamepopper]

Gah! Cute parenting is reminding me of that Nintendo Switch video again! >_<

[House42]

D'AAAAAWWWWW-

Code: Select all

brain.exe has ceased to function.
Reason: cute.png caused excessive overuse of the program's logic protocols, resulting in a catastrophic freeze of all functions.
Run inauguration2017.mp3 to reboot brain.exe?

              [Yes]                                        [No]                                        [More Puppies]

[GameCobra]

And then Olive makes it her mission to see what King's head will look like when it explodes.

I have to wonder if King is the only one that's grumpy with kids because he use to be human =P

[Bill in OK]

That's sorta how I am with my granddaughter.

[HellishK9]

It's going to be a blast!

[Argent]

[More Puppies]

This is always the correct button to press.

[Invisan]

Btw Guys.

Did i miss it or do we know the names of the other pups?

[GameCobra]

[More Puppies]

This is always the correct button to press.

*gets a marker ready*
...
*adds [More Kittens]*
:3
*presses it*
...
*feints*

[Argent]

*feints*

Dodges and blocks!

And, @Invisan, the puppies are Olive, Ace, and Rook.

[Gbr23]

That was indeed an adorable interaction

[Cesco]

D'aaaww, what cute scenes! Well, King, just don't manage pups right after they ate milk. Eheh, she knows a bit of Russian. Ok, enjoy your night out, King and Bailey, it'll be good for you two. Looking forward to who will be the dog sitter.

[Tooths]

For some undisclosed reason I am really hoping the sitter to be uncle Fox. Wonder how he'd handle three pups!

[Chinchilociraptor]

I think it would be more amusing for Mungo or Daisy (given her true nature) to be the sitter. However, given the great job she did earlier dealing with Jess, Natalie would be a good choice.

As an unrelated side pondering: I wonder how many people started shipping Mungo + Daisy as a couple after the last arc. I said it and now you can't unsee it.

[Render]

Btw Guys.

Did i miss it or do we know the names of the other pups?

Yeah, King named them when they were born. https://www.housepetscomic.com/comic/20 ... -the-king/

[RandomGeekNamedBrent]

Any bets on the sitter? I wouldn't be surprised if Karishad somehow is involved.

no way king would allow that, but he may show up dressed as Kari Poppins briefly

[Argent]

For some undisclosed reason I am really hoping the sitter to be uncle Fox. Wonder how he'd handle three pups!

"Uncle Fox" was apparently a nickname for Loki. Probably not the best babysitter.

[silver16]

This strip has made me truly reflect on how much King has grown since he was introduced years ago. ^_^

[Douglas Collier]

Nose boops are best. ^w^

[maxgoof]

King is such a good dad! The voice I have him saying that in my head with is sooo cute, it just makes the scene so much better.

Especially on the, "Yes, it will! Yes, it will!" part.

He obviously dearly LOVES those puppies.
