Embrace accepted, head pat, and hug returned! The boy’s smile could light up the whole room, a far cry from the tears he’d shed before staying at the farm. There were critters to see with room to run around, a nice change from the suburbs of Duckburg.
“Doin’ reallyreally great! ‘Cause I made lots of friends, like the fishies at the pond and aaaaall the ‘lil bebês at the pig pen. Wanted to join ‘em in the mud, but Unca Gus gots me ‘fore I jumped in.”
A small pout, but at least Dugan didn’t leave tracks around the house. “But issokay! I met a billygoat and a tall guy with a super sharp sword and protected all the aminals!” He couldn’t help but ramble on, wriggling a little as he did. He looked up to Elvira with curious eyes. “Gram Gram, do you gotta sword like that? To protect the farm an’ all?”
