Comics and posts about Mapping the Forest | Roonie the Rabbit

Given up on labeling

FLYNN: Well, I've given up on labeling and mapping everything in the forest, Roonie. It's just too much work. You can never TOTALLY stop the forest from changing...

ROONIE: I'm sorry, Flynn. But... CHEER UP! Look on the BRIGHT SIDE!! Did you learn anything from all this?
FLYNN: Well... yeah, I guess.

FLYNN: I learned I'm doomed to a life of endless failure.
ROONIE: Did... did you learn anything... BRIGHT SIDE-IER?

Stream

ROONIE: So now that you've mapped the whole forest, we can't move anything from its place. But... what about the STREAM, Flynn?

ROONIE: It's ALWAYS moving. Have you thought about the STREAM?
FLYNN: Oh... I've THOUGHT about the stream, Roonie...

FLYNN: How it refuses to stay PUT, to be CONFINED. Its smug little TRICKLING, it... MOCKS me with its GURGLES and SPLASHES.

FLYNN: Yes... I have THOUGHT about the STREAM, Roonie....
ROONIE: Mmm, yes. Yes, you have...

Sneaking about

FLYNN: Here ya go, Hot Chocolate; it's a map of the forest. It's got everything on it, down to every last leaf, twig, and pebble.

HOT CHOCOLATE: Oh, fantastic! I always worry about all those little things sneaking about while I sleep. It gives me the shivers.

HOT CHOCOLATE: But now I have a map of them, so... no need to worry.

HOT CHOCOLATE: I love rational solutions to irrational problems...

Know what’s funny?

ROONIE: Know what's funny, Flynn? If you're REALLY labeling everything in the forest, you'd actually have to label your own LABELS.

ROONIE: And then label THOSE labels. HEH. And so on and so on...

ROONIE: Funny, right?

ROONIE: Well... I think it's funny anyway...

Shrubs

FLYNN: ... And you will be Tree #379. OK! Now, the shrubs. This will be Shrub #1... and Shrub #2.

SHRUB #2: Shrub?! Shrub? Man. I... I've always thought of myself as a tree.
SHRUB #1: Yeah. Yeah, me too, Seth. A smallish tree but... a tree.

TREE #379: Guys? Since we're (sniff) you know, saying stuff, I... Oh, this is stupid...
SHRUB #2: No, what? Go ahead, Herb. Say it.
SHRUB #1: Yeah, what's up, Herb?

TREE #379: Well, I've... I've always thought I was a scenic mountain peak.
SHRUB #2: Hey, Herb, to us you are, man. To us you are.
SHRUB #1: Yeah, man. Yeah.

What’s my number?

Type and number

FLYNN: In order to map the entire forest, we'll have to label each thing with a type and number.

FLYNN: We'll start with the rocks. This rock, Roonie, will now be known as "Rock Number One."

A pause

ROONIE: I actually think you look more like a "Michael".

Map out the forest

FLYNN: I've decided we need to map out the forest.
ROONIE: Oh! Why? Flynn, did you lose something?

FLYNN: What? No, it's just so we know where stuff is.
ROONIE: If you don't know where stuff is, Flynn, you should ask me.

FLYNN: No, I know... but like if someone comes or something.
ROONIE: Someone's coming?! A party?! I love parties!

FLYNN: Roonie. I'm going to leave now. Please, just... don't follow me.
ROONIE: It's a good thing I've got all these hats!
