Mr. Churchmen said " get in loser, we're retreating " Love that Mr. Churchmen came back for Mr. Crane though.

Marigold is my favorite character of the series, she just reminds me of my elders when I was a boy growing up.

Keep up the unequalled work! And Steve has an awesome voice but love the new voices. See you in Seattle!

Contact Sucrebielle and see what they can do.

"... Who someone had shot in the leg. And good for them..." 🤣🤣🤣

[@OpenBiolabsGuy]

I like your voice, Steve, but I’m glad you’re including more voice actors in your show.

Marigold is such goals, we love her. A tough lady òuó Best Granny I wanna watch ghibli movies with her, drink tea and make a quilt with her.

[@Dirpman42]

It's nice to remind the things that skulk around the dark why they hide in the shadows. There is much badder things than them that stand proudly in the light!

[@imscary2]

that roar made me jump shot in the leg good for them

[@olepoulcat]

[@wont_take_it]

Love you guys. Keep up the good work, your stories are amazing

" they pondered " Hmm can Mr. Crane like read Mr. Churchmens mind? Does Mr. Churchmen just nod or shake his head in conversations? Or a more wholesome thought did churchmen need to learn sign language after his voice was taken and did Mr. Crane need to also learn sign language to understand him? Their relationship seems so interesting.
