272: Pets

Well, Wintergreen already went on about the pups Raven gave us for the holidays and he's doing most of the training with; and Stone made the joke about Logan's shapeshifting abilities (calm down, Logan, I did say joke), so it seems as though both of the routes I might have gone with this one have been taken. My own fault for leaving it so long, I suppose.

Other than the pups from Raven, I never was much of a pet owner. Hunting dogs and working horses I grew up with, of course, and Frannie didn't seem to ever think it was much of a house if she didn't have a couple of cats running around to keep the mice to an acceptable level.

I spent most of my time in the military, then all over the world working... We've never exactly had a lifestyle that would make keeping pets easy, or a decent thing to do to the animals.

I'm calm. Perfectly calm. Do I look not calm?

*Scampers onto a shoulder*

Okay, so maybe the caffeine was a bad idea. But really, I'm not a pet. Not at all. Even when I want to be petted, that doesn't make me a pet.

*Folds squirrel paws annoyedly*

Yes, I know you're not, Logan. *reaches up and rubs at small ears amusedly*

I don't think Stone's tastes go quite that way...

*inclines head for scritches* I mean, I like petting but I'm not a pet.

HEY!!!

Logan, how many times do I have to say "yes, I know"? You're a good friend, not a pet.

*laughter*

So long as you continue scratching my ears you can stop.

It's NOT FUNNY!

Alright, then.

Logan, I said I didn't think he would, not that he did. Or that you would either, for that matter. Settle, would you?

*glares* Jerk. *fluffs tail*

....

*hugs* okay, I forgive you.

I am not.

Please. Did you really expect me not to give you at least a little grief over this, after all these years of you two dancing around each other?

I am happy for you, though.

Hm. I guess...

Still can't believe you could tell.

And I know you are. *smiles*

You weren't subtle, Logan.

*nod*

You keep saying that...

I should take a poll.

"Were the dogs a poor idea, Slade?"

"No, girl. They're... more entertaining than I'd thought they would be. I'm glad we have them."

[I think the dogs were a good idea. Godfather is certainly good with them.]

At least none of the dinosaurs tried to follow you onto the boat...

+chuckle+ True, sister.

Though I think the Marines' little pet might have tried, if they hadn't kept hold of it...
