    I’m sorry about all your dead pets. Erm… there’s something a little scary about your phrasing.

    But would you like to mention something you remember fondly about each of them?

      I honest to goodness did not realise how that sounded until now. Holy shit lmao

      I’ll write just one for now. Pizza was a black lab husky mix. My stepdad insisted that his name was Stan Lee but fuck him anyway. Pizza had a charming tuxedo pattern, and lived up to the reputations of both breeds; both heroically tireless and directly receiving radio signals from planet Goofball at all times. The adults left his training and minding to a brainless eleven year old, so his natural tendencies compounded with my own, resulting in a creature that could have given Eris herself a headache. He was a really fun dog.

          That was the way of it. There were team ups, but he had his own solo campaign, too. Once he pooped under the Christmas tree, size of a birthday cake but very well hidden, and there was a smaller decoy out front so when we thought we were done cleaning it still smelled like shit! Mad genius.
