Animal Handling for Fun and Fun, Thursday

[magnusrushesin]

Did the classroom need to look like a tavern every time they taught? No. Was it gonna be anyway? Yes. Yes it was.

But this time there were puppies. Puppies everywhere.

Which was why one teacher was on the floor, letting them just crawl all over him. "I love this class so much!"

"I gathered as much when you wrote the outline," Cara said dryly. I'm sure you were all shocked by this.

Magnus popped his head up, cuddling two puppies close to his chest. "I got it all planned out, we start easy and work up to training cats to not shove their butts in your face."

The impossible dream.

"Have you ever even met a cat, Magnus?" Sincere question there. "We're starting with puppies because they're simple, eager, and easy to please."

Much like one of your teachers.

"I've named this lil' guy Chortles. And this one Kevin," he said proudly. "So everyone pick a puppy and learn the secret language of trust."

Via petting.

Wait, Magnus wasn't supposed to know that either. Damn you, OOC comments showing up IC!

"What's what?"

Yeah, that was a smooth recovery.

This was only going to confuse her more!

"You just said it," she said, bewildered. "Naming a puppy after TexMex food?"

It was his charm. Really it was.

"Weird!" Magnus agreed. "But maybe you could name them... Beverly. Beverly is a good name. Strong name."

She... was just glad that he was weird and not another mountain lion, honestly.

"Beverly isn't a bad name," she allowed. "But do you think a puppy needs a strong name?"

Re: Handle That Puppy

[magnusrushesin]

No, no. He was a bear. In several ways. Wink wink wink.

"So they can survive the crippling horrors of the real world," he deadpanned. "Also it's cute!"

Oh my goddess.

"What about Bev?" she suggested. "Shorter is always cuter!"

Re: Handle That Puppy

[magnusrushesin]

"Bev it is!" See how they got this all figured out so easily? "Chortles, Kevin. Meet Bev."

One puppy tipped over as it's balance just went down the shitter and the other puppy peed in excitement. Puppies, man.
