History Heartwarming / FoxTrot

* One series of strips had Quincy eat Rodger's tax forms and Rodger is understandably upset with Jason. Jason then redoes the tax forms for Rodger on his own to make up for it (even though Rodger doesn't notice at first).

* When Jason comes back from summer camp, he runs to give Quincy a hug, saying how much he missed him. Peter remarks:

* Any strip where Jason treats Quincy as an actual pet rather than as a mere prop to annoy his family with. One of the best of these strips is where he and Quincy make up after Quincy destroys Jason's very first Slugman comic. The reader doesn't even see Jason's face and the effect still works; the fact that it works show just how simple and sweet their affection for each other really is.

* The mother's day strip where Quincy gives Andy a dead cricket he'd been carrying in his mouth (although she [[ComicallyMissingThePoint fails to understand why]]). That's right; Jason's pet iguana not only views her as his mother, but clearly loves her as well.

* When Steve Jobs died, Jason went down to the basement and rebooted the [=iFruit=]. Considering his initial dislike for the cutesy computer, that is saying a lot.

* [[http://comic-foxtrot.livejournal.com/235483.html Father's Day 2011]]; Jason makes Roger a comic book about "Super Dad" as a gift, saying he could give better gifts, like golf clubs, or a Ferrari, if he had a bigger allowance. Roger calls the comic the best gift ever. Yes, even by comparison to a Ferrari. Considering Jason was using the comic in an attempt to tell Roger he should give him a bigger allowence, it's also a case of ComicallyMissingThePoint.

* When Peter is too sick to have Thanksgiving dinner with the rest of the family, they [[spoiler: wait a day to have Thanksgiving dinner so that he can eat it with them]]. Andy's line of [[PetTheDog "Call us your family"]] has been known to cause people to get a bit of sand in their eye. See it [[http://www.gocomics.com/foxtrot/2002/11/30/ here]].

* Though it's dampened by the fact that [[spoiler: Peter was hiding his M-rated games in them]], Paige [[http://www.foxtrot.com/2013/11/10/hide-and-go-eek/ giving some of her old video games to Katie]] is pretty sweet of her.

* There is a sweet (surprisingly not [[BrotherSisterIncest squick-inducing]]) story where Paige can't find a date to the prom, and Peter is stiffed by Denise at the last minute. Andy suggests Peter take Paige, and though he goes through the requisite feelings of humiliation, in the end Paige has a great time and genuinely thanks him. It's warm-and-fuzzy, genuine brother/sister moments like that that made the early years of the strip so great.

** Considering Jason was using the comic in an attempt to tell Roger he should give him a bigger allowence, it's also a case of ComicallyMissingThePoint.

* The Christmas storyline from 1997, where Andy's mom comes for a visit. Actually provided a nice development for Andy.
** To specify, the storyline begins with it being clear that ''everyone'' Andy has known has loved her mother, leaving her feeling inadequate and resentful. Andy does her best to hide this, but finally accidentally blurts this all out while her mother is standing behind her. Hearing this, her mother sits down and hears her out, letting Andy explain why she's so miserable. When it's time for her mother to leave, Andy sincerely asks her back for the next holiday, and is pleasantly surprised to find she isn't feeling horrible at the thought.
* In an early week-long arc, Jason is embarrassed to go back to school because Andy got him a {{Garfield}} binder, so he goes to the first day of school wearing a sack over his head. There, he sees a girl who's also wearing a sack over her head, and asks if her mom got her a {{Garfield}} binder too; the girl replies that she got a "geeky" Apollo 11 moon-walk binder. What happens next is incredibly sweet, especially considering that it's [[GirlsHaveCooties Jason]].

--> '''Girl''': You've got a {{Garfield}} binder?

--> '''Peter:''' Sort of a one-sided conversation, isn't it?

* Even though Paige considers Morton Goldthwait an {{Abhorrent Admirer}}, she has been shown to not dislike him as a person. On one occasion, after accidentally accepting Morton's invitation to a dance, Paige ended up lying to him about being sick to get out of it. However, when Morton called her to wish her a Merry Christmas, Paige realized [[JerkAssRealization how mean she'd been]] and genuinely felt bad for lying. On another occasion, Morton sat next to Paige at lunch; while Paige was initially annoyed, Morton then admitted that not many people want to be around him, and thanks Paige for letting him sit with her. Paige is genuinely touched, and even defends Morton from Peter after the latter calls him "a drip."

-->'''Jason:''' Maybe for ''your'' ears.

-->'''Roger, thinking:''' ''(now smiling)'' Oh, yeah...

* The week-long arc where Roger is depressed over turning 45. What finally snaps him out of it? Andy kissing him. Then, the two proceed to make out.

--> Jason is now lovingly holding Quincy, who has resumed licking his face.

* One comic has Jason show Quincy a magic eye picture that reads "Jason is your best friend." Jason muses that it would be better if Quincy could read, however Quincy's tail is visibly wagging.
