Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · 5d ago

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are reading a map.
Blue: Do you want to take the small roads, or the big route?
Green: I know the bridge is better in almost every way, but I like the scenic route.

Blue continues to study the map while Green looks up to him questioningly.
Blue: Good. We can't take the bridge anyway, it's on fire and also flooded.

Both foxes look at each other with deep confusion, baffled by each others' logic.
Green: ...Then why did you ask?
Blue: Because I value your opinions?

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · last wk.

A comic of several colourful foxes. In this one, we see a red fox wearing a burglar mask, carrying a heavy sack on her back.
Narrator: The reverse burglar strikes like a thief in the night.

The red fox drops the sack on the floor with a heavy thump.
Narrator: Swiftly she breaks in, drops her loot, and she's gone again!

In the morning, still bleary-eyed, drowsy Green finds the sack, looking at it with a drowsy yet puzzled expression.
Narrator: The grim light of dawn reveals her crimes.

Green turns around to call towards Blue, who is somewhere unseen.
Green: Blue? Your mom got us with the zucchini again!

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · 3w ago

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is a soft muted grey. In this one, Blue is helping the foxes' elderly neighbour carry groceries.
Neighbour: Thanks for helping me run my errands.

Arriving at her home, Blue sets the groceries down, while the neighbour starts digging her purse.
Blue: It's nothing, we're neighbours and I was home anyway.
Neighbour: Here's for your trouble.

Seeing the neighbour offering money, Blue leans back, trying to reject it. Determined to reimburse him for his time, she leans in just a aggressively as he is trying to lean away.
Blue: Oh, no need-
Neighbour: I am not a charity case. Take the damn money.

Arriving home visibly shaken, Blue is carrying the money that the neighbour offered. Green is sitting at his computer, looking towards Blue.
Green: How was it?
Blue: She drives a hard bargain.

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · 3w ago

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are in bed. Green is sound asleep, while Blue frowns in vague discomfort.

Green does not wake up as Blue starts to sleepily reach towards him, eyes closed and sniffing to find him by scent.
Green, narrating: You reach for me in your sleep sometimes.

Green almost wakes up as sleepy Blue kisses the back of his neck.

Satisfied with having located Green, Blue turns around back to where he started, and both foxes continue their peaceful sleep.
Green's narration continues: To make sure that I'm still there.

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · 4w ago

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are peering into a shower drain.
Blue: The shower drain is clogged with your hair again.

Green frowns at Blue as Blue opens a bottle of drain cleaner, and pours the colourless liquid into the drain.
Green: Why do you think it's my hair? You have as much hair as I do!

The foxes jump in surprise as semi-liquefied drain-clogging sludge of hair and rain cleaner chemicals bursts up from the drain like a fountain, lifting the drain cover up with it.

Once the sludge has settled into an enormous pile, foxes look at each other as they sit beside it. The sludge pile is more than twice as tall as the foxes are, and its colour matches the shade of Green's fur perfectly.
Green: The chemicals dye them that colour.

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · last mo.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue approaches Green with a question.
Blue: Hey can you help me make up my mind about something?

Green sits calmly and listens as Blue goes on, ponderously tapping his chin with the tip of his tail.
Blue: Okay, so I've got three options- no, wait, the second option makes no sense for this.

Green sits still while Blue goes on, looking over his shoulder to the direction he came from.
Blue: And now that I think about it, the third one is the same as the fist, but worse.

Satisfied with this talk, Blue carries on, returning the way he had come. Green has not moved at all.
Blue: The first it is, then.
Green: Glad to help.

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · last mo.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are outside, as Green frowns at an unwelcome noise.
Green: Ugh, someone's watching videos on full volume.

Green turns to Blue, who calmly hands him a pair of earbuds.
Green: Do you have my spare earbuds?
Blue: Here.

Taking the earbuds, Green starts swinging them by the end of the wire like a slungshot. As he lets them loose, they hit the video-watching stranger on the back of the head with enough force to startle them and drop the phone.

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · 2mo ago

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Green is peering out of the window with a pair of binoculars.
Green: Blue! Get in here! It's happening!

Blue rushes to the window to peer outside next to Green.
Blue: They're getting the carton recycling?
Green: Yes! The bin is empty!

Carrying boxes of various folded, flattened and rolled-up cartons and cardboard containers, the foxes rush to the recycling bin.
Blue: if we hurry, we might get ours in before it fills up again!

Reaching the carton recycling bin, the foxes look at the mountain of various folded, flattened and rolled-up cartons and cardboard containers already pouring out of the overfilled bin. The overflow mountain of carton recycling is so large that it's supported from several sides by flimsy wooden beams.
Blue: Ah, nevermind. The neighbours beat us to it again.
Green: How?!

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · 2mo ago

A comic of several foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, we see a grey fox, by themselves, studying a "no smoking" sign, with a smaller sign added at the bottom.
Grey fox, in thought: Non-smoking area, enforced by... Sniper?

Frowning disapprovingly, the grey fox immediately pulls out a cigarette and lights it.
Grey fox, still thinking: What kind of a sick joke is that? How would th-

Grey fox's thought process is startled as a thin, sharp burst of water shoots the cigarette out of their mouth.

Nearby, Blue and Green are hanging out on their balcony. Blue is wearing an olive green fishing hat, taking cover behind the balcony wall, aiming a brightly coloured plastic water gun down to the street.
Green: Enjoying your new watergun?
Blue: Immensely.

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · 2mo ago

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Green is carrying Blue on top of his head. Blue looks wide-eyed and stunned, completely wrung dry and shriveled, hanging limp like a rag.
Narration: How to revive an oversocialised introvert:
1. Gently remove from crowds.

Green gently lowers shriveled Blue into a metal stock pot. The pot's lid is leaning against the pot on the side.
Narration: 2. Place in a chilled, dark and quiet place, away from strong smells and sounds.

Sitting down to wait next to the now lidded pot, Green reads a newspaper.
Narration: 3. Let simmer until normal.

Green turns to look towards the pot as Blue peers out, still not fully recovered but now looking much more like his regular self.
Green: Feeling any better yet?
Blue: A little.
