Well, it's a good thing Ozy has a sense of humor.

I'm sure Ms. Mudd was expecting something like this. Still she has that what-the-H-E-double hockey sticks look that is just hilarious.

This strip would have been better if it was just two vertical panels with Llewellyn on one, and Ms. Mudd on the other, holding hands, each saying their own particular vows - showing the duality between the random yet poetic and the refined but mundane. Ozy and Millie's diversion of a commentary could have been omitted or left for another strip.

Finally, at the end of Ozy's life, having hypothetically lived a long and fulfilling one, Llewellyn, who will still be alive due to a dragon's natural longevity, will bend down and whisper in his son's ear "Poisson d'Avril."

Agreed. Although I think that all of O&M's commentary could have been omitted from the storyline. It's distracting and pointless, IMHO.

I really like the artwork here though. Very nice! :smile:

I am now curious as to what Ms. Mudd's vow will be like.

The alignment of Millie's ears and Ms. Mudd's shadow makes it look like the latter has grown dragon wings.

Ozy's line demands to be quoted somewhere. Somewhere important. It just sums up Llewellyn so well.

Ozy in panel three is just adorable! :wag:

I actually like this strip very much. I hope Ms. Mudd's vows are as good.

What ABOUT the April Fish?

TELL MEEEE.

Also, I liked this, and it does look like Ms. Mudd has a pair of dragon wings in that panel XD
