Discovery of the day

I wonder if all the fox trot fans out there know that Peter's girlfriend Denise is blind? I though she was wearing the sun glasses for style but turns out she's a blind character! I was reading some old books and noticed that she reads brail, touches things to "see" them and often makes a reference to how glad she is she can't see what's going on.

That finally explains the sunglasses...

On another note, I started reading Fullmoon o sagashite by Arina Tanemura. I'm addicted to shinigamis...First bleach, now this! It's not a bad series, it's short (7 books), has good drawings, a cute storyline and a really hot guy wearing a cat-heared hat (no fan service there, nooo) It's not the book of the century, but I have to admit i've turned into a Takuto fan (the same way cute demon/ghosts always get my fandom...damn you chrono!)

It took me a while to figure out Denise was blind. A few of the stips have shown a cane leaning on the couch when she's flirting with Peter though (if I recall correctly). I think it's neat that there's a blind character in the comics, but no one draws attention to the fact. I miss Foxtrot...the local newspaper here doesn't carry it!

The newpaper I read (Ottawa citizen) carries it, but it's by reading the compilations that I noticed (Denise dosen't appear a lot, but in the book format, you see her more) What triggered my wondering was when she was touching something clearly in front of her to "see" it. Then I flipped back and forth to other strips...Wow, she's blind!
I think that makes me like her even more ^^
