Phoebe and Her Unicorn is a newspaper comic strip by Dana Simpson, and made its debut as Heavenly Nostrils on Go Comics.com in April 2012 as a webcomic. In January 2015, the comic assumed its present title; on March 30, 2015, it was relaunched as a syndicated comic in nearly a hundred newspapers.It begins when 9-year-old Phoebe Howell skips a rock across a pond and accidentally hits a unicorn in the face. Freed from her own reflection, the unicorn — named Marigold Heavenly Nostrils — grants Phoebe one wish. After her impractical requestsnote infinitely more wishes, infinite dollars, and super powers are denied, Phoebe wishes for Marigold to be her best friend. But can a vain mythical beast and a nine-year-old daydreamer really forge a connection? (Spoiler alert: Yes, and their Odd Friendship becomes the heart of the strip.)The strip has been compiled in a series of collections. An original graphic novel, Phoebe and Her Unicorn in the Magic Storm, was published in 2017. A second, Phoebe and Her Unicorn in Unicorn Theater, followed in 2018.In June 2020, it was announced that Nickelodeon had won a bidding war to create an Animated Adaptation of the strip. However, a couple years later, Dana announced that the show had been cancelled due to Nick believing the show couldn't be marketed to boys.Now has a character sheet in need of work.

 Phoebe and Her Unicorn (Comic Strip) / int_17640aa8
comment
The Anti-Nihilist: Marigold cheerfully tells Phoebe life has no purpose but that it's much easier to accept "when one also has sparkles". Phoebe's won over by the argument, saying it's much easier to accept from a unicorn than anyone else. She isn't consistent with this position, however. In another strip, she says the meaning of life is to be a unicorn.... or, failing that, to find a unicorn to sit on.

All There in the Manual: Phoebe's parents' names were only known from the character bio on the syndicate's website for a very long time. A strip from October 16, 2015 mentioned Ethan's name, and August 16, 2016 finally mentioned Emily's, well over four years later.

Comic-Book Time: While seasonal events happen in 'real time' (summer strips in the summer months, Christmas strips in December, etc.), ten years of strips passed before nine-year-old Phoebe was allowed to avert an Ageless Birthday Episode and turn ten. (Marigold declared it was her tenth as well, reasoning that she must be ten of something).

Overly Narrow Superlative: this comic, when Phoebe wants to believe she is unique she asks Marigold how many humans ride unicorns to school. When Marigold answers 910, Phoebe keeps narrowing it down further till she gets to human girls with freckles who play the piano and are named Phoebe Howell, of which she is the only one.

Ironic Name: Infernus, The Unicorn of Death, and neighr parents Maledicta Unavoidable Catastrophe and Oynx Darkbane, Foreteller of the World's End, are all perfectly pleasant despite their grim names. Questioning this cues the introduction of Infernus' sibling Buttercup Jeweled Delight, who is tragically Goth, implying there is a reciprocal effect.

Forced Sleep
 Phoebe and Her Unicorn (Comic Strip) / int_2487c879
comment
Forced Sleep: Marigold has used her magic to make Phoebe fall asleep twice: once (for a few seconds and possibly without meaning to) by yawning ("Unicorn yawns are powerful magic"), and once by raising her Shield of Boringness and "turning it up to its highest setting". However, she has stated that sleeping spells in and of themselves are dangerous, because they may accidentally turn their targets into pillows (although she admits it's never happened before).

Yet Another Christmas Carol: In a Christmas story arc starting December 12, 2022, Phoebe gets visited by the unicorns of Christmas past, present and future after Marigold warns her they will come. However, they only visit briefly and never even try to make Phoebe change in any way since there's no need. When Phoebe questions Marigold about it the next day, she claims it is a unicorn tradition to do this to one human each Christmas. When Phoebe mentions Charles Dickens, Marigold refuses to talk about him.

Narcissist
 Phoebe and Her Unicorn (Comic Strip) / int_30d4f2a
comment
Narcissist: A common trait of unicorns. To drive the point home, Marigold was trapped by the beauty of her own reflection in the river, which is what happened to Narcissus in the Greek mythology. Averted by Lord Splendid Humility, who is so modest that he refuses to show any part of himself but his horn... though the implication is that he takes pride in being so humble. Deconstructed in the graphic novel Unicorn Theater, where it was shown through flashbacks that Marigold was much worse before she met Phoebe. It was also a source of friction between Marigold and her sister Florence when they were younger.

So Beautiful, It's a Curse: Marigold stuns everyone who sees her true beauty, even herself. When she catches sight of her own reflection, she can be trapped for days.

Apathy Killed the Cat: What unicorns fear most is their boringness spells to avoid detection backfiring and creating the dreaded "Meh", a state of apathy where people don't care if there is or isn't a unicorn standing right in front of them.

Unicorn: Marigold's design resembles the medieval description of a unicorn (deer-like build, cloven hooves, lion's tail), rather than looking like a mere horse with a horn. She's also pretty dangerous with her horn when the situation calls for it.

Marigold fixes it after she and Phoebe return to their own bodies, then reveals that no one else noticed because she'd already turned the Shield of Boringness up to maximum.

Early-Installment Weirdness: In their first appearance, the goblins were all in shades of green (Dana likened them to the variety of human skin colors). Later, they came in other colors such as blue and orange. In some of her earliest appearances, Marigold would drop the occasional contraction in her speech, but this was quickly done away with. Not that it's ever stated that she can't use contractions anymore, she just chooses not to (see Spock Speak below).

Sarcasm-Blind: Lord Splendid Humility. When Dakota describes an action of his as "lit," Phoebe has to reassure him that it was not a sincere compliment and therefore not a blow to his humility. Marigold thinks she can detect Phoebe's sarcasm but fails with an example that is explicitly presented as an example: "You DON'T talk about yourself way too much." (Then again, she might be pretending not to know so she has an excuse to talk about herself even more.)

Peerless Love Interest: Lord Splendid Humility is Marigold's hopeless crush because she has never seen him — and the only thing more beautiful than a unicorn is the idea of a unicorn. When she learns that Phoebe has seen his face, she drives herself to distraction between wanting to know and wanting to keep her illusion.

Inhumanly Beautiful Race: Subverted. How unicorns see themselves, including Marigold. It's not so much Informed Attractiveness, though Marigold's narcissism would make you beg to differ. If she actually dropped the "shield of boringness", it's more of a case of finding her beauty literally blinding, unable to look away and shaken from the experience. They're so beautiful that a unicorn can be captivated by her own reflection.

Fictional Counterpart
 Phoebe and Her Unicorn (Comic Strip) / int_61066d95
comment
Fictional Counterpart: Aside from Phoebe's "Pastel Unicorns" toys (see My Little Phony, below), there's the cartoon Robots That Are Totally Also Cars, the video games Talking Animals, Portable Hole, Irritated Birds, Dot Eating Circle Man and Cubecraft, and the fantasy TV series Thrones of Ermagard. The cartoon series Confetti Canyon is believed to be a mix of Steven Universe and Gravity Falls. Dakota posts videos on MeTube and mentions needing a Startkicker account to keep her magic hair in shampoo.

Otherworldly Visits Youngest First: Phoebe is the first person to meet Marigold Heavenly Nostrils, an honest to goodness Unicorn, but she quickly introduces the magnificent (ask Marigold) Unicorn to her classmates (and presumably the teacher as well, as it was during Show and Tell), and her parents (Dad wonders if Marigold is housebroken, while Mom tells Marigold she simply has to paint her, though Marigold is curious as to which color).

Background Magic Field: Comes up largely in The Magic Storm, where a dragon working a large spell nearby causes it to go out. It's treated as roughly comparable to the electrical grid; its absence means the Shield of Boringness and other passive spells stop working.

Covers Always Lie: The cover of Unicorn vs. Goblins makes it look like the goblins will be villainous characters. While they have a somewhat antagonistic role in their introductory arc (kidnapping Dakota for her magic hair), the conflict is easily resolved by Marigold, and the goblins' relationship with Phoebe and Marigold varies from outright allies to frenemies like Dakota, and even then, they are pranksters at worst.

Time Travel: A July 2021 story arc involves Phoebe and Marigold traveling back in time so Phoebe can meet her dad when he was her age. It turns out he still remembered the incident and had been waiting for it. He even knew she was his future daughter, because she was terrible about not calling him "Dad". It winds up being a Stable Time Loop.

Year Inside, Hour Outside: When Phoebe doesn't do her spelling homework, Marigold helps out by sealing her inside a "magic time bubble" where she can spend an hour studying while ten minutes pass in the outside world. While Phoebe mentions that "It's hard to memorize spelling words when [she's] floating in a timeless void", she gets used to it.

Super-Senses: Marigold tells Phoebe that unicorns can see magical colors that are invisible to humans, such as blurple, the color of "the songs of spring songbirds". She considers this being Blessed with Suck because blurple is "a gross color". Marigold feels the same way about her Super-Hearing Spell. Yes, it allows you to eavesdrop on distant conversations, but you're also forced to listen to worms crawling through dirt and squirrels chewing.

comment
Weirdness Censor: Dubbed the "Shield of Boringness" in-universe, a bit of magic that lets unicorns (and other magical creatures) pass below the threshold of interest. Marigold can raise or lower it (with varying results), and anything close to her tends to fall within its compass and seem mundane as well. According to The Magic Storm, Marigold no longer needs the "Shield of Boringness" around Phoebe's parents, Dakota, and Max, because they have been around Marigold enough times that they got used to her on their own.

Forced Transformation
 Phoebe and Her Unicorn (Comic Strip) / int_b97a2fa7
comment
Forced Transformation: Marigold is very much into the idea of slowly changing Phoebe into a unicorn. A magical version of a Makeover Montage, if you will. Baby steps, as Marigold's spells are usually short-lived but by encouraging her friend to identify as a unicorn, hopes this transformation will be permanent. To get the Unicorn Investigative Agency off their case, she and Lord Splendid Humility accidentally give the girl a temporary tail (which Phoebe likes). Marigold offers Phoebe a permanent one someday. That said, in a later strip Marigold tells Phoebe that she promised her parents that wouldn't give her a tail again until Phoebe was old enough to buy her own pants. She gives Phoebe a temporary unicorn muzzle to enable her to smell magical perfumes. Marigold seems genuinely pleased with the result. In trying to mend Dakota's broken friendship with the Goblin princess, Phoebe is changed into a goblin herself (Marigold claims it was faster than trying to teach Phoebe goblin language). She starts becoming goblin-like in mind as well as body, and eats her scarf before changing back. Combining this with "Freaky Friday" Flip, Marigold transformed Phoebe into her (and herself into Phoebe) for 24 hours, in order to see which one could handle the other's life better. Later, Marigold temporarily turned both Phoebe and Dakota into goblins in order to be able to read and understand a goblin novel. Phoebe takes it in stride, while Dakota doesn't take it well at first, though she heavily leans into it after reading the novel.

Shout-Out
 Phoebe and Her Unicorn (Comic Strip) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Phoebe's Embarrassing Middle Name Grizelda is a reference to The Monkees' song "Your Auntie Grizelda". To Carly Simon, in this strip. In this strip, from the 2014 Halloween storyline, Phoebe's parents are going to another costume party dressed as Trinity and Morpheus. Phoebe has an Ozy and Millie sticker on her laptop. And here Marigold wears a hat very similar to Ozy's. In the first Halloween arc, Phoebe is surprised to see Todd the Candy Dragon vomit a pile of candy much bigger than he is, saying that's physically impossible. Marigold replies with "Anything can happen on Halloween!" This strip from the 2016 Halloween arc has Dakota and a goblin dressed up as Sailor Moon and Sailor Venus. The last panel in this strip has Phoebe's dad reference "Jedi mind tricks". It's not named, but Phoebe and Marigold are playing Monopoly in this strip. This strip shows Phoebe and Marigold watching Disney's Funny Animal version of Robin Hood. This strip has Sue making an allusion to Rage Against the Machine. Marigold on the Unicorn Tapestry. "Mom, Dad's trying to make me know about Monty Python again." One comic has Phoebe calling her mother a sponge due to staying home and trying to make a painting career, to which she refers to her daughter as "Miss SquarePants". The 2022 Halloween Sunday strip has Phoebe dressed as Kiki. Dana has stated it to be her favorite Studio Ghibli film.

Five Stages of Grief
 Phoebe and Her Unicorn (Comic Strip) / int_c7e7529c
comment
Five Stages of Grief: Phoebe hits all five beats throughout a story arc where Marigold has to leave for a few days to take a vacation at a unicorn spa: She reassures herself that she'll be fine without Marigold (Denial), gets upset because she can't do things that Marigold helps her with (Anger), asks her parents if they can help her bring Marigold back (Bargaining), becomes sad that her best friend isn't with her (Depression), but then realizes that even without Marigold around, she can still go on and be perfectly fine (Acceptance). Of course, her overjoyed reaction when she sees Marigold again implies that she might not even have moved past Denial.

My Little Phony: Phoebe is a fan of the cartoon Pastel Unicorns and has a bunch of the toys.

All Animals Are Dogs: Marigold sometimes displays catlike traits such as purring, basking in sunlight, or poofing out her tail when startled. Infernus's tail starts wagging when neigh sees Phoebe at a Unicorn Reunion. Neigh does however admit: "It is more of a 'me' thing."

Mundane Utility
 Phoebe and Her Unicorn (Comic Strip) / int_eff83d77
comment
Mundane Utility: A characteristic of the human children who have taken up with magical friends. Phoebe rides Marigold to school, among other less glittering uses for a real live unicorn. Dakota uses the goblins for transport, especially when her status as goblin princess means she gets enough of them to carry her around. Voltina, introduced in The Magic Storm, is not only transportation but a handy source of electric power.

comment
Marigold is very much into the idea of slowly changing Phoebe into a unicorn. A magical version of a Makeover Montage, if you will. Baby steps, as Marigold's spells are usually short-lived but by encouraging her friend to identify as a unicorn, hopes this transformation will be permanent.

You Mean "Xmas"
 Phoebe and Her Unicorn (Comic Strip) / int_fd497586
comment
You Mean "Xmas": Marigold's typical reaction to human holidays is to explain that unicorns have a similar day with a different purpose (or the same day with a different name). New Year's Day, for example, is New Fears Day — a time for unicorns to assess their current fears, discard the ones they no longer need, and acquire some new ones.

Innocently Insensitive: One of the few things that can make Marigold truly depressed, is when she pities all the poor creatures who are not unicorns. Phoebe takes offense, but Marigold's concern is still sincere:
