I think we should get a pet.

A pet is a big responsibility, Shawn. I'm not sure you're ready.

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

What are you, Dana, my father?

Please say no. I don't want him here.

[scienceexplains.livejournal.com]

... I wasn't sure how to bring it up, but ...

I'm surprised the spirits didn't tell you this was coming.

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

That's not funny.

[scienceexplains.livejournal.com]

Sorry.

[classyslayer.livejournal.com]

I was actually thinking about getting a dog, but I was afraid my old roommate would eat it.

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

Oh, I was actually talking about me and Gus.

But hey, a dog! I always wanted one of those when I was growing up. Not to eat, but to love and play with. Also, I'm an expert doghouse-builder.

[classyslayer.livejournal.com]

How do you get to be an expert doghouse-builder without ever actually having a dog?

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

My father being a crazy person has something to do with it.

[classyslayer.livejournal.com]

Oh. Okay, say no more.

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

Thank you, I won't.

So what are we gonna name the little guy? How do you feel about Chase Ripper McGoohan IV?

[classyslayer.livejournal.com]

I think that might be a mouthful to yell when he pees on the carpet.

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

"Goo" for short?

[classyslayer.livejournal.com]

Surprisingly, I'm kind of digging Goo.

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

Our little Goo!

[lickthatdevil.livejournal.com]

i also think you should come and party.

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

Um, obviously. I'm just waiting for Gus. He's... lint-rolling or something, I don't know.

[lickthatdevil.livejournal.com]

sounds dangerous.

[mr-ttshowbiz.livejournal.com]

No way.

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

Aw, come on!

[mr-ttshowbiz.livejournal.com]

No. You'll be interested in it for about a week, and then I'll get stuck with all the feeding and cleaning and walking.

Anyway, I have allergies.

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

Oh, you do not. You were fine when we were taking care of Chairman Meow. And don't you miss him? I miss him.

[mr-ttshowbiz.livejournal.com]

I was putting my allergies aside for the sake of the case, Shawn. A week longer, and my respiratory system might have come under duress. Severe duress.

And I do not miss him. That cat was a nuisance.

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

Gus, don't be a dirty litterbox! That cat was great.

But fine, how about a dog? He can be friends with Chase Ripper McGoohan IV.

[mr-ttshowbiz.livejournal.com]

That cat had it in for me. A man can tell.

...Shawn, that doesn't even sound like a real name.

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

Gus, do you realize how ridiculous it is that you're threatened by a little boycat?

It's what Buffy and I are calling the Summers-Spencer puppy.

[mr-ttshowbiz.livejournal.com]

The domesticated house cat is descended from large, bloodthirsty, man-eating felines, Shawn. Don't think they've forgotten that.

Oh. Well, if you've already got one puppy, then you don't need another pet, do you?

[spenstar.livejournal.com]

The most threatening thing he did was pee on that woman's dry-cleaning!

You don't want a Guster-Spencer puppy?
