    After having an unplanned sleepover in Od-Dog's room, Curious Cat went to the living room to go see Empathetic Elephant to get some answers, but was intercepted by Mother along the way.

    Mother: "Ah Curious Cat, just exactly who I was looking for."

    Od-Dog: "Good morning Mother!"

    Mother: "Good morning, Od-Dog. It seems you two have already become good friends."

    Od-Dog: "Best friends you mean!"

    Curious Cat: "Don't push it, freckles."

    Suddenly, a pine martin approached the pair with a scowl on his face.

    Posh Pine: "So, you're the new kid, huh? You do realize breakfast was an hour ago!? We've already just met but I can tell you have no appreciation for being punctual at all. You're not making a good first impression, you know?"

    Curious Cat: "I'm sorry but who are you?”

    Mother: "This is one of the children you didn't get a chance to meet yesterday. His name is Posh Pine and he is very fussy about the time as you can probably tell."

    Od-Dog: "Well it seems you guys probably don't need me around. So I'll just be on my way then."

    Od-Dog then runs off, but nobody cared enough to stop him as Curious Cat noticed a shark cowering behind Mother's dress.

    Curious Cat: "And what's her deal?"

    Posh Pine: "That's Shy Shark… she's a bit of a wuss."

    Shy Shark: "Hey, I'm not a wuss… I just don't like cats, is all."

    Curious Cat: "I feel like I should be offended by that."

    Posh Pine: "It means she's scared of cats."

    Curious Cat: "Right… So, how come I didn't see you guys yesterday?"

    Posh Pine: "Well that's a funny story actually. You see, we were originally going to introduce ourselves when we heard the doorbell rang, but when Shy Shark noticed you were a cat, she was scared since she thought you were going to eat her because cats eat fish. I tried to ignore her and talk to you but she had a surprisingly strong grip on me. So instead we just spent the entire day stalking you."

    Curious Cat: "I'm flattered… Anyways, who's that?"

    Curious Cat pointed towards {{user}} who just came out from behind Mother.
