A Slice of Life comic that takes itself... well, at a good pace! Fresh face and new college student Vesta Brulant has high dreams of being a popular YouTuber- if only real life wouldn't get in the way so much. Homework, a part-time cafe job, and questionable life choices all ensure that his adoptive guardian, campus counselor Basil D. Phox, will have his hands full trying to keep the young fennec fox from causing everybody he runs into no short amount of grief.Started June 6th 2018, and currently hosted on WebToons! Main Characters: Vesta Brulant, the new face in college who has aspirations of becoming a famous YouTuber. A fennec fox. Basil D. Phox, campus counselor and a reasonable adoptive parental figure to Vesta. Also a fennec. Eleanor Brenner, the campus librarian and a friend that Basil treats to coffee on occasion. Another fennec. Abel, Basil's most-assuredly 100% twin brother who runs a cafe. A stoat. Aclima, Abel's wife, a tough-love mom and no-nonsense officer who keeps getting called for small matters. An ermine. Bowie Ruban, an actual(ly popular) YouTuber and Vesta's kind-to-a-fault classmate. A bunny. Wooly, Bowie's shy and tear-prone boyfriend that drops by Basil's office quite often. A wolf. Neves Alopeke, fashionista and eager source of stress for Eleanor. An arctic fox.Previous versions of many of these characters appeared in an interactive Pokémon fancomic called “Misadventure of Basil�, formerly hosted on Tumblr, now being reposted to Tapas.

Morphic Resonance
 At A Good Pace (Webcomic) / int_15827a31
comment
Morphic Resonance: An oddly meta example. Every major character of the AGP cast resembles their Pokémon-selves from the author's other comic, with their AGP version appearing as an animal that matches whatever that Pokémon was based on. As a nod to this, Vesta has a Braixen plushie from the start, eventually receives a Sylveon from Bowie himself, and Wooly is gifted a Midnight Lycanroc. All three are their actual respective selves in the alternate comic.

Failed a Spot Check: Vesta is conned into paying Croissant for the exclusive filming rights of a mummy. Said mummy turns out to be Mi San, very poorly wrapped in bandages, to the point that her skirt is sticking out. Vesta still winds up with a scare a moment later.

Unresolved Sexual Tension: Eleanor repeatedly rebuffs Basil's attempts to ask her out despite her own reluctant attraction to him, bordering on Belligerent Sexual Tension. Then in the Konran arc Neves tricks them into going on a date and Eleanor accidentally admits her attraction as she's storming off.

Oblivious Adoption: Basil, the very tall fennec fox, doesn't seem to really question why his father and twin brother are tiny stoats. When Eleanor tries asking him about it early on (#34), and he doesn't catch on, Abel's tense reaction implies they genuinely haven't told him.

Disappointed in You: When Vesta's slacking gets to the point that an exhausted Bowie winds up in Basil's office, the one thing that gets him to relent and admit he needs to work on his project is Basil's expressed disappointment in him. As much as other scoldings are played for laughs, this one seems to cut through Vesta immediately.

Technicolor Eyes: It can be hard to tell in the comic itself since characters, by default, typically have plain black pupils. But in other artwork, they do have varying eye colors. Most easily seen in the "Thanks for your support!" image, where Vesta is sporting vibrantly red irises.
