Meet the boys!
Benjamin's in IT and Benicio is in Human Resources. But they like to pester each other during the day...

Panel 1: Benjamin, a large fat rat, leans into Benicio's cubicle. Benjamin: Hey, can you help me with a trip to the supply closet? Benicio: Sure! Panel 2: Benicio is talking about calendar dates and sports teams. Benicio: I'm so excited. Benjamin, being a much heaver man, is leaning against the wall and struggling to keep up physically and in the conversation. Benjamin: Yeah Panel 3: Benjamin is doubled over, and Benicio is scanning him in by pulling his nametag to the door lock. Benjamin: Th-huff. Benicio: Lemme get that. Benjamin: Ye.. Benicio: Maybe let's do trips before lunch, okay? Benjamin: ...Yah.

P1: Benicio: THERE'S MORE TO IT! P2: There is a screenshot of the cartoon in question, where a chubby rat is in some kind of club where two fat cats are hanging out with him. One is eating a large hunk of meat on a bone, the other is playing an instrument. Benicio: The Fat Cats ARE hot...and Rodney gets chubby too... But it's the way they encouraged him that gets me. P3: Benicio: Did you know the animators loved drawing him fat so much they changed his design for the next season? He kept his snarky, "mean" attitude but they made him rounder. I guess it was easier to animate? P4: Benjamin, imagining Benicio performing all kinds of sex acts with the Cool Cats. Benjamin: Tell me more! Get to the hot stuff!

P1: Benjamin: How about I share a weird fantasy I have, and you can tell me one that's up to that level? Benicio: Sure? P2: Benjamin: I wanna be this sleezy King, with a knight picked out to "attend" to me. P3: Benjamin: Sometimes he's down bad, or maybe it's just a job. But all that matters is that he kisses MY ring and obeys. P4: Benicio: Whoa Benjamin: Your turn!

Hey all. The computer I do all my art has failed, and I'm unable to work. I've lost templates and a lot of other workflow stuff. I'm trying to recover what I can.

P1: Benjamin: That does have me thinking. I know a few things that fidget your spinner. But what else are you into? P2: Benicio: What I'm into...? P3: Benicio: You know, normal things. Benjamin: Right! Benjamin, thinking: Let's try another angle.

Sorry for the late post!
P1: Benicio: I think that I gave a lot of good context for why I like weird food. Isn't accepting it at face value as lazy as being dismissive? P2: Benjamin: If you know why, that's all the better for you. I think it's tough enough being vulnerable, so I don't go around expecting a slideshow justifying our joys. P3: Benjamin: Besides, this isn't weird to me. A guy once asked me to feed them with packing peanuts during sex. Benicio: Did you do it? Benjamin: Only once- I had to block him when he wouldn't stop sending me dick pics. P4: Benjamin: Just in case - You're not friends with PicaPete from Kink.co, right? Benicio: No, but I'd love to hear his opinion on Squiiks.

P1: Benjamin: You don't have to do all those gymnastics to justify yourself. P2: Benicio: I meant it though... P3: Benjamin: I know that! But how do I say it... P4: Benjamin: I liked the first reason you gave more.

P1: A parody of the movie poster for "A dinner with Andre" P2: Benicio: What makes food good? An arrow points to the dish, labeled hand-made pasta with sauce slurry. P3: Benicio: Food's meant to feed you first. Flavor is a bonus, & taste is cultural. P4: People use what they have. A caption of Lime Cottage Cheese Jello and SShrimp. P5: Benjamin: This is beyond weirdo stuff. You put fermented beans & savory aspics in one bucket? Benicio: Why not? P6: Benicio: People wouldn't eat it if it was inedible. The texture & flavor priorities are just different. P7: Benjamin pauses to really think. P8: Benjamin: How much are you talking out of your butt? P9: Benicio: ...Only twenty percent. However, P10: Benicio: You must admit, it is a nice butt.

When's the last time
you saw someone with a ski mask and a gun
Get on the inside?
You gotta do it, gotta do it, gotta do it like me
#thebens #afterhours
A character with a ski mask on, a tied scarf with many black and white stripes, and a blue business blazer sits in an office. The office appears to be furnished with some photos of their younger self.

P1: Benicio: I like food! Especially when people are creative! P2: Benjamin: There's creative and then there's mixing goop. P3: Benicio: I appreciate the blatant disregard for texture and flavor. It's kitsch. Benjamin: I see. P4: Benicio: Just look at this sauce. It's so...Tacky. Benjamin: Tacky? Honey, that's cooled into cement.

P1: Benjamin: You just seem, very...enthused by all this. P2: Benicio: I'm sorry, I can explain- Benjamin: Oh! P3: Benjamin: I get it now! This is weirdo stuff! P4: Benjamin: I love weirdo stuff.

P1: Benicio: No, I MUST try it! P2: Benicio: It pours like a paste, how can I resist? P3: Benjamin fails to contain a bit of a horrified response. P4: Benjamin: Why are you like this?

P1: Benjamin: "The Sauceror's Cauldron. "Our house sauce is a fun blend of herbs, meats and cheeses..." P2: Benicio: I can't help myself. I have to try it. P3: Benjamin: Please. You don't have to impress me.

P1: Benicio: Behind the curtain was a pasta buffet? I thought it was just extra seating. Benjamin: Guess it's only open during dinner. P2: Benicio: Vito's Spaghetti. "We make all our pastas in house!" Benicio: 'Do it for the Gnocci', seasoned with nutmeg and white pepper. P3: Benjamin: I think I get it. This is all the leftovers from the lunch service. Benicio: Clever! A marinara...beef ragu...That's a nice looking alfredo. What's this pink one? P4: Sign: The SAUCEROR'S CAULDRON. Benicio: Hmm.

P1: Benjamin: Oh Dippy Stixx, you fix everything that a hand job can't. P2: Benicio: I know I didn't help, dropping all my drama on you. P3: Benjamin: Don't say it like that... I'm just not used to caring this much. P4: Benicio: You were CARING? About work? About ME? Shucks! Benjamin: Listen, You! Benicio: I'm listening, I'm listening!

A trick - I'm posting early.
The treat - have a comic!
#thebens #webcomic #furry
P1: Benjamin and Benicio cross the street to Vito's. P2: Benjamin: Did it strike you as odd...how close those two stood? P3: Lisa: Who are you, my father? They just wanted as much space from me as possible. For good reason. P4: Benicio: Plus Phyllis looked exhausted, I can't imagine what she was dealing with up there. P5: Phyllis: But who stays that late after hours to TALK? Lisa: I've heard enough from Lara. That Benicio can turn a five minute conversation into an hour. Phyllis: That tracks. P6: Benjamin: Phyllis is too professional Benicio: No, she's just a hard ass. Besides... P7: Benicio: ...Assuming two people can't be close would be homophobic! P8: Lisa intimately buckles Phyllis' seatbelt. Phyllis doesn't resist, but she looks angry as she blushes. Lisa: Let me get that for you. Your husband would kill me if I didn't bring you home safe.
