Of course it's OK, Max. Keene just needs to burn it now.

Good house guests know when to leave,
to let the residents be on their own.
They know when their welcome is worn
and when grace and decorum is best shown.
Max, of course, is no such good guest,
overstaying his welcome by whole days.
It’s better to think the cat a real pest
who brings chaos wherever he stays.
He’s not even told Grape he’s OK
(although she seems fine without him)
If he doesn’t move fast she’ll give up
and then his romance changes are grim.

When someone says "you'll have to wait it out", they don't normally mean "wait forty to fifty years until you die". Fortunately though, the way Cerberus says "see you on the other end" makes me think Breel will have no trouble getting back into heaven. You would think as the owners of the mansion they would have invested in shower drains that don't get clogged with hair; the ferrets do have more hair then your average multi-billionaire.

A few options here:

A) Keene has multiple bathrooms connected to this room and
Max came out of the one he wasn't in

B) Max got in and out of the shower during the course of this conversation

C)Max was in a distant bathroom and walked through the mansion in nothing but a towel while brushing his teeth to find Keene and report a clogged shower drain

Keene: WAIT, before you go... what's this sweet tight sensation I'm suddenly getting in my chest?
Cerb: Well, I'm just taking a wild stab here, but that's probably what redemption feels like.

Breel's tears in this strip almost made me cry.

Also, I love how two of Cerb's heads are apparently OK with this, while the centre one is, like, "Meh, I'll never get my heads around these mortals..."

I am going to guess he is in pain. The tears do not feel happy, ya know? We don't know how he died, so what if it was from illness or something genetic? What if he goes down the same path that he doesn't remember?

I will feel better when he is not hunched over or leaving with tears.

"And I'm NOT talking about the toothbrush in my mouth right now."

This is a heartwarming page. I hope Breel doesn't regret his decision. Between Heaven, Hell, and the material world (twice!), he's certainly run the gamut!

Pretty typical of Cerberus, dood. They always have that exact distribution of predisposition. Not sure if they have a particular label for each head, though. ^^;

Eeeeeee!! That first panel makes me so happy X3

But of course, as not uncommon, Max ruins the moment..! Darnit, Max. :lol:

Also, considering Breel isn't choking yet, we can safely say he's at least gotten his breathing in check (for now anyway). Now to all the other instinctual habits, and the not-so instinctual habits. :P

Sadly, it looks like Cerberus is going back up to heaven. no other incarnations.

Max still being in the mansion highly amused me. He better be taking every advantage of this prize!

Cerb may be stunned and Head #3 might remember they forgot something halfway back up the stairs.

Is Breel of Asian origin? His respectful bowing and nodding seems to indicate so. Also, he mentioned the Transcontinental Railway, seemingly indicating he may have been a Chinese Coolie. (also spelled koelie, kuli, cooli, cooly and quli [according to Wikipedia])

If this had ever been mentioned, I don't remember it.
King looks an awful lot like my own Corgi. That's one reason why he's my favorite, but I also like his attitude.

Showers and drains go back to the ancient world. China had toothbrushes in the 1400s. The first mass-produced toothbrush in the West was 1780, which means there were bespoke ones before that.
Bill in OK wrote:Is Breel of Asian origin?
He appears to be either an American Marten or a Pine Marten, native to northern USA and Canada, and northern England and Scotland respectively. Also, I don't think he's bowing here, he's still freaking out over internal organs.

Chinese martens would likely look like this yellow throated marten:

I don't remember an Asian connection with Breel. I sorta assumed the "mortallization" process involves a cascade of sensations as you became physical again, which accounts for the "bowing" (or, more likely, clutching his forming innards).

Max: "Hey, I'm just telling you. I'll put the toothbrush back ... It's not like I brush everyday or somethin'."

Maybe its Rock's stuff....

Just realized that Keene just had a shower. Did Max use it after him and clog it? How much fur did he shed? AND HOW HANDSOME DOES THAT MAKE HIM?!?

He's a Eurasian Pine Martin. Rick confirmed this on a certain popular furry site when he posted those HP characters morphed into his 'regular' style.

The bowing could just be a mannerism that he adopts whenever he's overcome by emotion. And Breel is an emotional guy indeed.

Keene and Breel, HP's new power couple. That's awesome. I don't think we've seen this intensity between two characters since King fell for Bailey.

Breel has done his important choice, Cerberus, you can go now, and thank you. :D These two are so cute together! 8-) Eheh, yeah, there's still an intruder in your mansion. :P Has been enough, Maxwell, you need to leave the place for Breel. ;) But, unblock the drain and change the toothbrush before go. :P

Well, out of 118 listed characters, Breel is #32 in appearances, placing him below Cerberus and above Duchess.
