I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, fine, mama giraffe would kick the hyena's ass. Literally. I thought they were in a squash court!!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Also, Place in Africa called Giraffe Manor .
Next time my dad is missing, I should just start looking here.

Giraffes are cute and fierce.

Weirdly, there were giraffes in one of my Buffista-filled dreams. Perchance they lurk...

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

We saw a taxidermied giraffe today.

Also, I recall that the giraffe can swing its head around like a big whacking hammer. Plus big kicking.

I've never seen a hyena bring down a giraff and I'm going to presume that's for the same reason I've never seen a lion take down an elephant. Too big.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Or maybe you hang out at the wrong bars.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Dude. I am somehow on the side of hyenas, and there-fore against cute mammals.

I am cancelling my PBS.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Normally I'm on the side of the predators, but hyenas are just icky.

Gawd, boy. It is Buffistas. Get used to it!

Well, hyenas slum it as scavengers too. It takes some of the shine off.
