Furniture Princess

 enable images please

There is a wooden bench in our church atrium and it's a solid, smooth bench however the legs are not even so it wobbles. It has no upholstery so it's not dated, but it is loud since the center legs are longer than the ones on either side. It's not an ideal situation, and yet it stays.

Explanation: The princess is Belle from Beauty and the Beast, a movie where the staff of a castle are turned into furniture and other objects in said castle. There's other plot points but that's the relevant one for this comic.

D: Did we get rid of that old bench from the church lobby?
M: Nope, someone is sentimentally attached to it.
D: Nooooo, who has sentimental attachment to furniture?!?!
Belle: :(

Gaston in Valheim

Who can make up these endless refrains like Gaston?

So the game Mark is playing is Valheim and it's on his computer, not the Switch, but it was easier to draw him using the Switch rather than seated at a computer. It's a survival game so you have to build a house and boat, and hunt and gather food, and fight off the dwarves and trolls. When you hunt the deer, you can gather a hunting trophy from them sometimes which is their ANTLERS which I believe you can use in all of your decorating. There are birds in the game from which you can gather feathers - not sure if you can gather eggs which would allow you to make a proper breakfast every morning to help you get laaaaaaarge. Until you're roughly the size of a barge. Now that I look up the lyrics, I see the verse about hunting was just in the live-action version, not the animated original Disney version. Here's the live-action lyrics - they actually are a bit different but still carry the original theme strongly. 
And now I have that song stuck solidly in my head, but maybe you do too.

M: *playing game which has deer hunting*
L: You should carefully aim for the liver. Then shoot from behind.
M: Is that fair?
L: I don't care.

Plague Doctor

I get how it could be confusing

 In the live-action Beauty and the Beast that came out a few years ago, there is a flash-back to Belle's childhood which was apparently during The Plague because there's a plague doctor shown. My niece had a misconception about this character but I didn't correct her. On a similar note, I've seen plenty of crochet patterns for making little plague doctors - I have not made one because that's just creepy. But it would be a good memento of 2020. Or rather, 2020 and beyond since we're well into 2021 currently. 

Text:
E: I know about the Plague - that's the name of the doctor in Beauty and the Beast, with the bird beak mask.
L: Sure, we'll go with that.

Marvel vs. Disney

Is "tale as old as time" a legal time frame?
I tried drawing the Beast (the definitive article, for the Whovians) but that really didn't work out.

Chip and Mrs. Potts

Here's an article about other questions that Beauty and the Beast didn't answer. Sadly there's slight language in it.
