I’ll stay right here then
- Explain it one more time.
- I’m going to work, princess.
- OK, I’ll join you! I’m great at work.
- I thought you’d stay here, keep an eye out.
- OK, I’ll keep an eye out. You know, for black dogs and such. They come here, and I’ll tear them to bits.
- Like, these fangs, there’d be nothing left.
- I know, princess. And I have prepared a bit by the door. Here’s your basket. Here’s a stack of old papers, if you’d ... you know ... nature’s call. Like when you were younger.
- I know, princess. Just in case, you know.
- They are my boots, leave them alone.
- Basket, papers, boots. Check.
- And if any black dogs come by, I’ll rip them to pieces.
- I’m sure you will. I’ll lock the door, for their sake. Bye, princess.
- Master! You were gone for forever!
- I was gone for four hours, like every time. I see that you’ve been busy here.
- Forever! And some black dogs passed by outside, so I screamed at them until they left.
- How did you know they were black dogs if they were outside?
- Princesses know such things. Instincts. Princess instincts, born with them, just like we’re born with these fangs. You know, for ripping them to pieces.
- Just like you said. I did my business in the basket. Crafted a bed out of your old boots. And the papers are just as you left them.
- Are we going for a walk now?
