In the real world, Heidi and I may be broken old ladies, but in a comic strip, you can be a kid forever.
That said, I have been wanting to do a proper, full-strip homage to the great Bill Watterson and his classic comic strip, Calvin & Hobbes, for a LONG time now. At least since my Garfield parody strip. When I finally had an idea, then I just needed to work up the nerve to try and mimic his fluid and lively line style. (AND pull it off digitally, no less.)
I tried to give it the FLAVOR of watercolor for the colors, but still wanted it to look like a real Sunday strip, and am marginally pleased with the results.

My family was sledding through the neighborhood (like dogsleds but no dogs) and we reached a non-frozen lake and started swimming across. Everyone had waterproof snow gear except my brother who started sinking. My mom had to dive down and save him. We decided to sled across the lake instead.

Conversation
Naruto: Ah, back from your vacation, Sensei?
Kakashi: Mm. The mountains are truly beautiful this time of year. And the cabin with the wood-burning fireplace; so cozy.
Sakura: What was your favorite part?
Kakashi: Hmmm ... well, I suppose it would be riding Gai.
Naruto and Sakura:
Naruto: R-riding Gai-sensei?
Kakashi: Yeah. I was scared to at first because you know, I've gotten a little heavier these last few years, and with Gai's bad leg, I didn't want to hurt him. But he said it would be okay, and I'm glad I listened because that was the most fun I've ever had in my life. And you know what a show-off Gai is; after a while he was doing tricks and these fancy maneuvers. All the other people couldn't stop watching us.
Sakura: ... people were watching you?? You did this in public?
Kakashi: Of course! Hey, you guys and Sasuke and Gai's team should join us next time. We were thinking of going back and spending Christmas there. I bet you'd have a blast.
Naruto: Sensei ... I'm the Hokage now. I can't be seen doing such ... such lewd things in public dattebayo!
Kakashi: Lewd? Since when is sledding lewd?
Sakura: Sledding?
Kakashi: Yeah; Gai fit skis to the bottom of his wheelchair, I sat on his lap and we sled down the hill.
Kakashi: Wait, what did you think I meant?

The sled bet
{Masterlist}
~Five days of Fluffmas~
You decide to go sledding with Klaus and Kol and things get out of control very quickly.
1k words - No warnings, no smut! just pure fluff.
Your fingers were numb, your cheeks red, sweating heavily underneath your winter jacket. You gripped the ropes of your sled, your heart beating in your chest as you looked down the alarmingly steep hill. Everything seemed frozen in time, only the fogginess of your own breath appeared to be moving in the light of the hazy winter sun. The adrenaline and nerves within your system threatened to poison you.
"Don't worry, if you crack your skull open, I'll heal you," Klaus teased, a stupid shit-eating grin plastered on his face.
You flipped him off, pressing your heels into the snow. This was either going to go horribly, or wonderfully... or not at all. A sled race had seemed like a really, really good idea a few minutes ago, but now... you weren't so sure.
"Who's up for a little wager?" Kol asked, sliding his feet on the ground and rocking his sled from side to side so he could shuffle down a few inches of the slope.
"What do you have in mind?" Klaus asked, an amused expression on his face, mirroring his younger brother's actions.
"Whoever gets to the bottom first gets to take y/n out on a date," the youngest Mikaelson declared.
You scoffed, looking between the two of them. "And what if I win? Do I take myself out?"
"Then I won't tell Elijah about all the naughty dreams you've been having about him," Kol replied teasingly, an impish smirk on his face.
You looked away quickly, not letting him see the red rising to your cheeks as you muttered, "I don't have naughty dreams about him."
But Kol wasn't lying; you had, multiple times.
"Sure," Klaus teased, raising an eyebrow.
"Oh, fuck off, both of you!" You cried, throwing a handful of snow at the hybrid. "This is so unfair; both of you have the advantage of being immortal, and now there is blackmail involved," you pointed out.
Kol smirked, shrugging his shoulders. "All is fair in love and war, my dear."
You rolled your eyes. "If I don't die today, I'm going to kill both of you," you grumbled.
"Ready..." Klaus started, gripping the rope of the sled.
"Set..." Kol continued, a smug expression on his face.
"Go!" Klaus cried, kicking off with his feet and shooting down the hill at an alarming speed.
"Son of a bitch," you cried, pushing yourself down the slope, the wind rushing against your face and stinging your skin. You could see the back of Klaus's sled in front of you, and Kol was coming up on your other side.
You pushed yourself, trying to pick up as much speed as you could, and suddenly, you felt yourself lifting into the air. "Ahh!" You screamed as your sled launched off a ramp.
The wind rushed around you, gleeful laughter falling from your lips as you flew through the air. That was before you landed, crashing onto the hard-packed snow, which had turned into ice after days of below-freezing temperatures. You went skidding, the sled flipping over, and you were launched onto the ground.
The wind was knocked out of you, and the world went spinning as you tumbled down the remainder of the slope.
"Y/n!"
You groaned, opening your eyes, the sky and the trees spinning above you, before everything came to a stop, and the world righted itself.
"Are you okay?"
You let out a soft laugh, feeling a bit delirious.
"That was awesome," you giggled.
"Yeah, the tumble at the end was a nice touch," Kol chuckled.
"I won," you said, a dazed smile on your face.
"No, I won," Klaus said, shaking his head.
You groaned, closing your eyes and holding a hand to your forehead. "I think I'm bleeding," you sighed.
"You are absolutely bleeding," Klaus said softly, kneeling down and taking a look at the cut on your forehead.
"I'll get her back to the house; you get the sleds," Klaus told his younger brother, scooping you up.
"Please don't tell Elijah about my dreams," you whined, feeling the effects of the pain finally setting in.
"But you lost, darling," Kol chuckled, picking up the discarded sleds and following behind you and his older brother.
"So did you!" You shot back.
Klaus chuckled. "You should know better than to make a bet with Kol; he always wins."
"What are you going to do on your date, Klaus?" Kol teased, a smug grin on his face.
"Shut up," you groaned.
"It's okay, love," Klaus whispered. "We'll call it a draw."
You sighed, leaning your head against his shoulder. "Thanks," you replied, grateful that Klaus was going to spare you the humiliation.
"What's going on?" Elijah asked, rushing outside to greet the three of you, seeing you bleeding in Klaus’ arms.
"It's okay, she'll live," Klaus said.
"I hit my head," you explained, feeling slightly delirious.
"What were you doing?" Elijah asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Sled racing," you said, laughing a little, as the image came back to you.
Elijah sighed, taking you from Klaus's arms. "You're lucky she didn't break her neck," he scolded, looking down at you.
"I won," you grinned, a smug expression on your face.
"What'd you win?" Elijah asked, raising his eyebrows as he carried you inside.
"It's a secret," you smiled, your cheeks flushing a little.
Elijah looked back at his brothers, giving them a questioning look before taking you inside.
"You shouldn't compete with those two; it never ends well," Elijah stated, sitting you on the bathroom counter.
You nodded. "Yeah," you sighed. "It was a bit of a blackmail situation," you shrugged, biting the inside of your cheek.
Elijah looked back at you, grabbing a first aid kit and setting it down next to you. "What was the blackmail about?" He asked.
You looked down, chewing your lip. "Uh... nothing," you said. "I mean, it wasn't anything bad; they were just teasing me," you muttered, looking back up at him.
"They were teasing you," Elijah repeated, an eyebrow raised.
You nodded, giving him a soft smile.
"And what did they tease you about?" He asked, pulling out some gauze.
You groaned, shaking your head. "It's nothing," you replied.
"You don't want to tell me," Elijah said, pressing a cloth to your forehead.
You shook your head. "Not particularly," you said, your cheeks red.
Elijah let out a small laugh, shaking his head as he put some disinfectant on the cloth and pressed it to your forehead.
You winced, biting down on your cheek and squeezing your eyes shut.
"Sorry," Elijah apologized, looking down at you, a tender look in his eyes.
You looked back at him, a smile on your face. "It's okay, this is way better than having to go on a date with Klaus," you joked.
Elijah raised his eyebrows, tilting his head. "I thought you had a soft spot for him," he said, a playful look in his eyes.
"Not him, no," you said, your cheeks heating up.
Elijah gave you a smile, one that made your heart beat a little faster, and your cheeks flush a little redder.
"So if not him, then who?" He asked, putting a bandaid on your forehead.
"Well, um..."
"Hey, are you guys done?" Kol asked, sticking his head into the bathroom.
Elijah sighed, closing the first aid kit and stepping away. "Yeah, she's fine," he said, leaving the bathroom.
You frowned, your heart dropping a little as you hopped off the counter.
"Oh, and y/n," Elijah started, poking his head back into the bathroom.
You looked up, an expectant look in your eyes.
"I dream about you sometimes too," he said, giving you a knowing smile.
Kol chuckled, looking back at you with a shit-eating grin.
Your jaw dropped open, but he had already walked away.
"Kol, you're a fucking ass,"

I sled down the largest water slide I’ve ever seen in my life, and the height between the slide’s end and where the pool was could surely lead to someone’s doom but some Minecraft mlg logic prevented that.
