Between a Cat and a Squirrel

Unless Nibbly becomes more sapient in cannon, Maren is probably better for him... but if she does... I dont know XD

Lexio

My guy

Luckysniper2424

I'm starting to see Sythe as the Vincent Brooks (see Catherine) of TwoKinds with all this...

Jordan Dean Ezekude

Wow, I think this sketch may have the most comments of any of Tom's Patreon posts. Helped along quite a lot by DarthKeidran... lol

coredumperror

Super Smexy squirrel girl… And Angry Kitty Lady…

DarthKeidran

May this moment of awkward bliss last forever.

DarthKeidran

Yeah, but in our dreams is still good.

DarthKeidran

I want to see her propose to him. Endless disheveled fur to brush out!

DarthKeidran

That’s alright. Unless something ticks me off too much, I generally don’t like to either.

DarthKeidran

If Maren weren’t so possessive of Sythe, I don’t think he would mind this arrangement.

DarthKeidran

But the squirrel is best.

DarthKeidran

You've got that right. Good thing Sythe's Profession of choice is a diplomat.

DarthKeidran

Yeah, I intended it to be a followup to the magical mishaps #1, but I like that Tom did Kitty Maren instead.

DarthKeidran

They are. He's contemplating how much longer he has to live.

DarthKeidran

Us: You like it, you love it, You know you really want it… in the context of this image, if I go much further, implications get a bit NSFW, so… Here's the video with the song those lyrics are from. https://youtu.be/8-OD-X1lJjg?t=28

DarthKeidran

Sythe 'N' Nibs for the win! Just try telling that to Maren tho.

DarthKeidran

I don't know why, but your comment just gave me an idea for a website. "Ship Tracker" Where people can add assorted fandoms and the characters within said fandom, and vote weekly for their favorite pairings of said characters on a monthly basis. E.G. Select the first person in the ship, the second, and then 3 or more are optional and added incrementally by selecting someone in the next dropdown. Then, have graphs showing each pairing and how many times each had been voted each week to show each ship's popularity. It could be beneficial for webcomic artists that haven't gotten all their story together to see what the fans do and don't like.

DarthKeidran

She's trying to show Maren who truly owns her pet wolf.

DarthKeidran

Zen? Zen! Your Leg's all better, I thought we were going to have to amputate! XD

DarthKeidran

The best of both worlds.

Christian

Sigh, sadly only in our dreams. :(

furry

stupid sexy wolf man...

Wakeangel2001

Just admit it Maren is totally into Sythe.

Francois Van Der Merwe

Sythe: I forgot to turn my swag off last night and i woke up surrounded in female😎 *sorry dont like cursing here, 😅*

Alex Kitsune

The old and good ménage a tròis, one of the dreams most desired by men

A cat is fine, too...

Tomato Basket

truly diplomatic sleepover

JAB the Tab

Wasn't Maren turned back into a human but she still had cat paws for feet, thats one magical mansion

UnawfulPlayz

atkeast they're happy. :3

LupusK

Mrs Nibbly definitely knows EXACTLY what she's doing

Nunya.Byznys

I think he is better with the squirrel

Jacob narvaez

And the award for the luckiest wolf in the house goes to...

csstats

Sythe likes it! Sythe loves it! He wants some more of it!

SCPilot

I don't think he knows where his left arm is, either.

Ordithus

Very adorable! Snuggles are the best. Sythe does not look nearly as happy as he should be.<br>I half expected that Maren would be in the middle of this cuddle sandwich "wait she's not Raine"

Ordithus

I dunno, the way she holds his arm says a lot.

Kubulai

Nibbly couldn't be happier if she tried to be. Maren is, well, Maren.

Glenn Sellers

I think you should relax, Sythe. Both of them look happy to be there. ...Where did your left arm go?

Kubulai

Ah, the age old question. 😈 Depict them as having been at it with one another. 😇 Depict them as sleeping on separate beds like this is the 1960s 😸 Depict them just clothed enough so that it's implied that they may have had some "Quality Time" with each other, but is otherwise completely clean.

DarthKeidran

Thom: "Hmmmm... Do I want to draw something wholesome or fanservice-y?" Thom to Thom: "Porque no los dos?"

Roughlandin

Same, It will likely be relegated to sketches and the Magical Mishaps side comics though.

DarthKeidran

Get too drunk last night Sythe?

DarthKeidran

Sythe: I don't know if I should be enjoying this, or be disturbed by this, my head hurts!

SCD

Really hope we get to see Maren get transformed like that in the comic at some point.

Rhawkas

She did. Here's Page 25 https://www.patreon.com/posts/magical-mishaps-27398077

DarthKeidran

He doesn't have a clue what went on last night.

DarthKeidran

I've woken up a time or two with a story to tell, but from the look on Sythe's face he's the one who needs to hear it...

Michael Marcoccio

Whoop Whoop! It's the Sound of tha Police! Whoop Whoop! It's the sound of Tha Beast!

DarthKeidran

I do ship Raine and Sythe a little bit, but I ship Raine and Zen more.

DarthKeidran

Glad to see he's doing good after his divorce. ... Wait. Are they divorced?... And Maren too? I have a feeling this is going to bite them on the ass later. I know the US Military doesn't recognize "Separated", and I think neither does Human and Keidran laws.

[NoMiddleInitial]

I am DarthKeidran and I Endorse this Message.

DarthKeidran

No place for Raine ? ^_^"

Panther

Please let anthro nibbly be canon. I know that there was a comic about it, but we never saw her turn back after she kissed scyth, unless I missed some pages

I support this ship.

hippiewerewolf

Or he’s a gentleman. Though he could be both, we’re unlikely to find out the former from Tom.

DarthKeidran

Actually, we have. https://www.deviantart.com/twokinds/art/Nibbly-s-Jibblies-655651460 and https://www.patreon.com/posts/7681837 <img src="https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/41444526-b6bc-4a30-a898-103b0674da0e/daucvwk-4fad1a94-de4b-47cf-8257-62dfe39d38eb.png/v1/fill/w_766,h_1044,q_70,strp/nibbly_s_jibblies_by_twokinds_daucvwk-pre.jpg?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1cm46YXBwOjdlMGQxODg5ODIyNjQzNzNhNWYwZDQxNWVhMGQyNmUwIiwiaXNzIjoidXJuOmFwcDo3ZTBkMTg4OTgyMjY0MzczYTVmMGQ0MTVlYTBkMjZlMCIsIm9iaiI6W1t7ImhlaWdodCI6Ijw9MTM2MyIsInBhdGgiOiJcL2ZcLzQxNDQ0NTI2LWI2YmMtNGEzMC1hODk4LTEwM2IwNjc0ZGEwZVwvZGF1Y3Z3ay00ZmFkMWE5NC1kZTRiLTQ3Y2YtODI1Ny02MmRmZTM5ZDM4ZWIucG5nIiwid2lkdGgiOiI8PTEwMDAifV1dLCJhdWQiOlsidXJuOnNlcnZpY2U6aW1hZ2Uub3BlcmF0aW9ucyJdfQ._VXRo8noOVEXtkF8e1l-YsPxG01ZSHv5TAL_PDVovAA">

DarthKeidran

Yep. A person you really like on one hand, and someone who can give you orders on the other hand.

DarthKeidran

<img src="https://i.imgflip.com/33op9o.jpg">

DarthKeidran

OK, this HAS to get colored. We've yet to see anthro-Nibbs in color, and this pic is just tooooo cute!

coredumperror

That is actually kind of hilarious. I guess Maren isn’t as disliking of Nibbly after all.

DarthKeidran

If you call a potentially lethal dilemma luck, sure. ;-3

DarthKeidran

Maren: *Purring*

DarthKeidran

It does have that vibe to it.

DarthKeidran

I really believe that whoever the “Tan—” person Red mentions on page 842 was a Keidran who Maren either was close friends or in love with, and is a primary reason for her conscious and public apprehension towards Sythe (not wanting a repeat of history), which makes them look like a bickering couple. And that in this context, the peace is coming from being with someone like “Tan—“, who she’s gotten to know, who seems to want to be with her. On the other hand, I also came up with the theory that “Tan—“ is actually Flora. Check out the wiki for some of the details. https://twokinds.fandom.com/wiki/Minor_Characters#Tan-

DarthKeidran

Keith: This seems awfully... familiar...

Mr. Suit

Sythe gets a lot of pictures where women are fawning over him. He must be hung like an elephant.

Argonwolf

Well, his left hand appears it will be pinned roughly between himself and Nibs. His right hand, on the other hand (sorry, pun was unintended), would be in the vicinity of… his… 🤭

DarthKeidran

I didn’t straight up write that something happened in the suggestion, but I was thinking it, at least, involving Maren prior to her and Sythe falling asleep and Nibs sneaking in bed.

DarthKeidran

I was wondering what happened also. It was here, briefly, but disappeared. It was great. 👍

DarthKeidran

Kinda reminds me of the "deplomatic sleep over"

MiDoFox

*sleepy squirrel noises*

CrRAR

"marenandnibbly.png" Totally love how Sythe is just missing from the filename

horoisawolf

Sythe has all the luck.

Akashimo Hakubi

He hopes...

Ascender

Lucky bastard.

Ascender

Just to say I love the peaceful and dignified look on Maren's face. It's gorgeous.

Reseen Dalls

Sythe. I have something to ask you and the answer could save your life. WHERE ARE YOUR HANDS?!

Adamas

Maren and nibbly continue to fight for sythes affections! It’s both adorable and hilarious! Also Sythe is screwed regardless of who he goes with.

Mediawatcher

Maren and Nibbly have perfect hair, both of them should have completely ravaged hair. I mean really? We can't even IMPLY what happened?

MoppyPuppy

Wait... Where's my long narration I wrote in this comment section? Did it- Oh welp, I guess it's gone forever... But, one thing for sure... I won't be able to withstand the shear amount of "pressure" I will be getting from those "water ballons" if I were in Sythe's position...

Leonard Browntail

LSD. Love, Sleep, and Dilemma.

DarthKeidran

Scythe: "What was in that rum...?"

Estragon

I didn’t think of this interpretation. <img src="https://thumbs.gfycat.com/MenacingUntriedCutworm-small.gif">

DarthKeidran

What curse? Having beautiful women hanging on him doesn’t sound like a curse.

DarthKeidran

Looks like diplomacy has succeeded, then!

Customaera

Maren: *wakes up* Me: I think his luck just ran out.

DarthKeidran

First it was Keith, Now it's Sythe...who knows? Maybe the curse might lay on another unfortunate soul. Maybe Trace, maybe Mike or Evals, who knows who it could be.

KWolf75

Maren: Wha!?!? Tabby: You’re my long lost sister. The Templar kidnapped you for their experiments. I never thought I’d see you again. Maren: I’m human… Tabby: *pulls out a dress that matches Maren’s dress from the early days of the comic* If you had a dress like this one you are my si… why did you pass out? Narrator: And so it was revealed, that through Templar experimentation, Maren was transformed from a Taverncatter to a Taverndatter. I wonder what Karen will think of this revelation.

DarthKeidran

Yep. Best of luck from here out Sythe.

DarthKeidran

Nibs kidnapped the collar from the case.

DarthKeidran

Not necessarily. (͠≖ ͜ʖ͠≖)

DarthKeidran

Here are two collars for the envious one. Now they come with species and gender selectors.

DarthKeidran

Maybe she’s drunk also, and maybe Sythe was also drunk when the two got in bed. They always say that drunk people are the most honest.

DarthKeidran

Me too bud.

DarthKeidran

I know right. The unfortunate thing for Sythe is he hasn’t had much experience being a diplomat, especially when it involves someone he’s become romantically involved with.

DarthKeidran

My God how lucky can sythe be. But I think that Maren is still jealous of nibbly.

DiDiDi-X

A cat, a wolf and a squirrel walks into a tavern, and the tavern wench says "Meow, Sis!"

Torbjörn Larsson

Let the Ship Sail On! Wait… what ship is setting sail? x’D³

DarthKeidran

and nothing happened

Steve Gloria

But isn’t she always, No, Maren, I didn’t say, Kyaaaaah!!!!

DarthKeidran

AGAIN?! How does this keep happening?!

Wolf guy

DarthKeidran

Here’s your own collar. Have at it.

DarthKeidran

( ͡° ʖ̫ ͡°)

DarthKeidran

<b>@Crimson Fhang</b> in this scenario: ᕦ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)ᕤ “I’m Awesome!”

DarthKeidran

Look at Maren holding Sythe, she's more honest sleeping than awake.

WereKeidran

She's bossy and abrasive. No wolf needs that in their life

Timmainsson

To borrow an image that <b>@deffinitelynobody</b> commented on the last Chimera pic: Sythe and Maren, except for, successfully: <img src="https://ih1.redbubble.net/image.410870574.3087/raf,750x1000,075,t,black_lightweight_raglan_sweatshirt.jpg"> Tah-Dah! Human-Squirrel-Cat-Keidran!

DarthKeidran

Sythe’s “I’m screwed” face is borderline the most adorable part of the sketch. XD

DarthKeidran

Lucky is right. Only problem is the dilemma on hand.

DarthKeidran

Sythe: Do I Choose Maren and Hurt Nibbly? Do I Choose Nibbly and probably die? Do I die telling Maren I didn’t do it because she held onto me like a Boyfriend all night? Or Do I try and convince Maren that I can be with both of them, and probably still die? I’m screwed.

DarthKeidran

So envious

Alenil

Until Maren wakes up to find Nibs in “My bed with Sythe”. At that moment, Sythe’s diplomacy skills will be truly tested.

DarthKeidran

I wish anthro-Nibbley was canon...

JasonAW3

ahhhhh my freaking heart can't handle this cutness. also maren's gonna be so pissed when she wakes up lol

metalman20

Woah, how drunk did you get Maren and yourself to be for her to be passed out enough for you to unknowingly get busy with Nibs Sythe? Also, if that happened to be the case, with Maren in her… Present Condition, does that mean he’ll have sired both Human-Cat-Wolf-Hybrid and Anthro-Squirrel-Wolf Hybrid shapeshifters?

DarthKeidran

Not yet, by the looks of it...

JasonAW3

Kitty Maren is too adorable.

Ryan W. Anderson

First, I want to say thanks to those who voted for this one. My 26th B-day was on the 13th, so this is kind of like a B-day present. Second, what a dilemma Sythe has been presented with. With Maren’s arm around his, he can’t try to figure out why his pet girlfriend is humanoid again, and on the other hand, he can risk his life and tell Maren after she wakes that because she had her arm so tightly around her new boyfriend’s arm that he couldn’t possibly have been involved in the re-Keidranification of the Nibs. Either way, he is the pooch that is screwed.

DarthKeidran

Later on, we find out that both are pregnant now!

Malen

My regular mind says fell asleep that way, but my gutter mind says something else

Ebin Shumate

Maren is so cute In this scetch!

Ebin Shumate

I ship that V :P

Sons of Lorgar

Remove Nibs and I'd like it better. I ship Scyth and Maren so hard.

Forget that! KITTY freaking Maren!

ThirdKind

Lucky stiff. And I DO mean stiff! ;-)

What happened last night? 0-0

Lucky man 😀.

Ooooh she's so cute as a cat.

The unwarranted love triangle (according to Sythe) continues. How will it end? To be continued...

Lucky Bastard Lucky Bastards everywhere... I'm so jelly😤😳😣😌😅
