I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges. Aaaaaaa! What was that?

Sweetie: The sky broke! What have the humans messed up now, Lady Human?
Me: It’s a thunderstorm passing over.
Sweetie: I was asleep.
Me: So was I.
Doodlebug: Why do this at night?
Me: Atmospheric conditions.
Sweetie: Sounds like a made-up excuse for y’all to get by with something. MoonCat! Are you awake?

MoonCat: I am now.
Sweetie: The humans have cracked the sky again.
MoonCat: They broke it. They bought it. Good night.
