[kissytheface]

The expedition to find a pet for Dandelion had not started it well. Apparently Everything but the monkey had everything but monkeys and rocks

"Well," Zack hedged, picking his way along the rocky bits with a wry smile on his lips, "maybe he was only half-viking? He wasn't so much 'scourge of the universe' as he was 'cranky about being called names,' I think."

Oh, sure, use reason, Zack.

"Anyhow, he won't be getting our money for your new pet, will he? That's almost like revenge all on its own."

He hoped.

"Well what kind of place doesn't have monkeys!" Dandelion protested as she flailed her arms up into the air. "It's a travesty!"

No. Not really Dandelion. Not at all.

And Dandelion is really the last person who should have a monkey.

"I hear monkeys are kinda messy anyhow," Zack replied, blinking her way and shrugging his shoulders a bit. "Besides, who wants a pet that actually poops?"

Said the kid with the gerbil in his pocket.

Mr. Winkles would get him for that remark, oh yes.

"Ew," Dandelion said with a wrinkle of her nose. "Maybe that store should be named 'Everything that poops'."

And then she turned and saw the view of the rocky bits in front her. "Loki's horns! All those rocks! And they're homeless!"
