Cooter & Big One
Cooter The Tortoise Cat receives her first verbal warning
Chameleon: Cooter, the Big One asked me to have a little informal talk with you about a delicate matter...so listen up, ok?
Cooter The Tortoise Cat: Uh Oh. Now what?
Chameleon: Well...You know, when you snuggle up on the Big One's chest every night...?
Cooter: Oh...It's just for a little while! That's non-negotiable, by the way.
Chameleon: No, no, that's wonderful...It's just that...well...the Big One was wondering if it would be too much to ask...
Cooter: So why doesn't the Big One just ask?
Chameleon: Well, the Big One has been attempting to communicate this to you for quite a while now...is what I understand, so...
Cooter: Ok, ok...Just tell me!
Chameleon: Well here it is then. Could you graciously keep your...uh...rear end out of the Big One's face, from now on, during the bedtime snuggles...by any chance?
Cooter: Aw...common. Cat companions pile up that way naturally. Everyone knows that! The Big One didn't seem to mind 'tail to nose' arrangements back when I was tiny...you know...back when we all lived in that big, cushy, dark, box...and snuggled lots and lots.
Chameleon: But Cooter, back then...that first Big One was...a cat!
Cooter: You're kidding, right?!
Chameleon: Well I told the Big One I would talk to you about this. So I did. So now just go play in the bamboo bush.
Cooter: All the Big One had to do is ask plainly...but OK...maybe.
