FoxTrot/Heartwarming: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

* When Peter is too sick to have Thanksgiving dinner with the rest of the family, Andy creates {{spoiler|a second Thanksgiving dinner just for him (albeit of leftovers)}}. Andy's line of [[Pet the Dog|"Call us your family"]] has been known to cause people to get a bit of sand in their eye. See it [http://www.gocomics.com/foxtrot/2002/11/30/ here].

* A strip from July 1989 where Peter tells Denise what it is he likes about her:

'''Denise:''' ''[kisses him]'' Thank ''you'', Peter. }}

* The two times that Jason expressed honest love for his parents: first with his mother at the beginning of the summer camp arc in 1997, and again in a storyline after 9/11 where he admires Roger for mustering the courage to give blood.

* One comic has Jason show Quincy a magic eye picture that reads "Jason is your best friend." Jason muses that it would be better if Quincy could read, however Quincy's tail is visibly wagging.

* In one one-week arc, Roger takes Paige shopping:

'''Roger, thinking:''' ''(now smiling)'' Oh, yeah... }}

* The week-long arc where Roger is depressed over turning 45. What finally snaps him out of it? Andy kissing him. Then, the two proceed to make out.

* Any strip where Jason treats Quincy as an actual pet rather than as a mere prop to annoy his family with. One of the best of these strips is where he and Quincy make up after Quincy destroys Jason's very first Slugman comic. The reader doesn't even see Jason's face and the effect still works; the fact that it works show just how simple and sweet their affection for each other really is.

Jason is now lovingly holding Quincy, who has resumed licking his face. }}

* The mother's day strip where Quincy gives Andy a dead cricket he'd been carrying in his mouth (although she [[Comically Missing the Point|fails to understand why]]). That's right; Jason's pet iguana not only views her as its mother, but clearly loves her as well.
