Expectations

“I don’t understand,” said Sprite, stepping out of the dunes. “I showed over a hundred humans pictures of Spectre. Are none of them remembering him for more than a few minutes?”

“You’re an idiot,” sighed Lucy, “with unrealistic expectations of humans.”

“You can’t expect much from a species,” chimed in Jelly, ” that make eight Fast and Furious films and not once show them stopping for petrol.”

Shout out and thanks to KC of K.C.’s Scribbling and Gina of GinaRaeMitchell.com for buying me a couple of cuppas over on Ko-Fi.com yesterday.

As always, cheers to Bruce, Badger, Kathy & Warren for the continued $10 Patronage. You can find me on Ko Fi, Patreon, Etsy, Amazon, Skillshare and Threadless.

    1. Imagine if we were shown the wait for the bus in all those cheesy romance films before the partner arrives and announces their undying love… Lordy!
