Dictated;

[webbing]

You know, I always feel like February is kind of the short changed month. Don't get me wrong, I get the whole Leap Year thing that goes on, keeping the calendar consistent without adding some bizarre fourth of a day and sending the world into chaos, but on a regular year it only gets what... twenty-eight days? You'd think some of those months with a full thirty-one could spare a day or two here and there. It's not like they're really hurting for extra slots here.

Pee ess, not a huge fan of the redecorating, but what else is new?

[webbing]

Good guess.

[jetset]

There's nothing else taking up your attention right now.

[webbing]

You might think that, but no... no there really isn't. See, there were some studies done about ignoring obnoxious kids to get them to behave. I'm putting these theories to the test... on the castle.

[jetset]

I don't know, it'd be pretty hard for me to ignore an obnoxious kid who set some kind of weird tigerdillo on me.

[webbing]

Set a what where now?

[jetset]

A tigerdillo. Except not a tigerdillo. I think someone called it a tiger?

[webbing]

Right, taking the sensible dillo part out of the tigerdillo.

[ a beat ]

What the hell is a tigerdillo?

[jetset]

I don't know, it's a... tigerdillo. Can you tell me what a tiger is?

[webbing]

Sure it's a big, stripy cat that likes to eat things. ... Things including people.

[jetset]

[ cat... ]

Well, a tigerdillo is like that. Except it's a tigerdillo.

[webbing]

So basically it's a tiger... but with a different name?

[jetset]

No, it doesn't look exactly like that thing the castle set on me, if that's what you mean. It's got a hard shell for a back, and it's shorter.

[ he would explain that it's a cross between a tiger and an armadillo, except armadillos don't exist. avataaaaaaar. ]

[webbing]

[ Luckily enough, Peter is well aware of what an armadillo is, and it doesn't take a lot of brain power to put the name and the description together. ]

So it's like an armadillo and a tiger managed to spawn? ... I'm not sure which one I feel worse for in this situation.

[jetset]

If you say so? Feel sorry for the armadillo; from what I've seen of tigers, they aren't the friendliest.

[webbing]

Armadillos are also about the size of a cat, so...

[jetset]

Ouch.

[webbing]

No kidding. Try not to think about it too hard.

[jetset]

I'll try. In any case, if this is the castle's idea of an obnoxious tantrum, what's it gonna when it's it's actually mad?

[webbing]

You don't want to know.

[jetset]

You've been here long enough to know for yourself?

[webbing]

Over a year and a half.

[jetset]

Yikes. You sure it's not better for me to be prepared?

[webbing]

There isn't really any way to "prepare" for this place.

[jetset]

I don't know. Even if the castle doesn't do repeat performances, or whatever, I like to know what came before.

[webbing]

I wouldn't even know where to start with all the things it's pulled on me.
