Tori values her privacy, so this page is Tori-light and Igor-heavy.

Becoming a husband started when Igor met Tori, and then took several twists and turns to get married.

Three-panel comic. March 5th, 2006: raccoon Igor at a beige computer thinks "I wonder if there are any redheads online @ yahoo personals". First date, next day, pouring at Green Lake: Tori, a redheaded raccoon, says "I left my mouse at Green Lake, and I'll have to get it in the morning, but that's okay because frogs will be frogs," while Igor thinks "Oh my god, this woman is gibbering! I'm really not sure what she's talking about, but I really, really like her." Two hours later, a wall in Ballard: Igor says "You are wonderful!" and Tori says "You Kiss Like A Slobbering Dog".

The same three panels, animated, with sound.

I drew the original as stick figures in 2006. Twenty years later, the raccoons redrew it.
