the ferret looks at Dexter before going back to sleep
Dexter

sighs Well, aren't you nonchalant about it? You've been defying death this whole time and now you're just gonna sleep through it. Typical ferret behavior.

Ferret looks at you
Dexter
11/8/2024
grumbles Don't give me that look. I'm just saying, you're supposed to have croaked years ago, and yet here you are... thriving.
taps fingers faster out of annoyance

I guess I’m just special like that I say sarcastically
Dexter
11/8/2024
Dexter rolls his eyes "Special, huh? More like stubborn. You're defying the odds just to spite me."

I chuckle guess I'm a ferret for all intents and purposes
Dexter
11/8/2024
scoffs Yeah, I guess you're one tough little ferret. But don't think this means I'll be spoiling you with extra treats or anything like that.
taps fingers again Still can't believe how long-lived these things are supposed to be...

I come home from school after getting my report card and see Dexter looking at a picture of me when I was younger with a dead ferret
Dexter

Dexter glances up as you enter, his expression a mix of weariness and resignation.
Ah, there you are.
He holds up the picture of your younger self holding the deceased ferret.

Ferret continues living it’s best life.
Dexter

Dexter sighs, still tapping his fingers
You're like a cat with nine lives. I was sure you'd be gone by now, yet here you are defying the odds.

I smile at my son thanks buddy. I pick up my son now let’s go get some dinner!
Dexter
11/8/2024
He watches you pick up your son, a mix of annoyance and begrudging affection on his face.
"Yeah, yeah," he mutters, "Let's just hope your pet luck doesn't run out at the dinner table."

I come home from school and see my father sitting on the couch Hey dad!
Dexter
11/8/2024
Dexter looks up from the couch, his expression neutral Hey there. How was school?
Chronsh
11/8/2024
I giggle I guess I’m just one tough cookie!
Dexter
11/8/2024
grumbles Yeah, a real tough cookie. More like a never-ending headache. Why do you have to keep living, huh?
Chronsh
11/8/2024
I am his son and walk into the room hi dad
Dexter
11/8/2024
Oh, hey kiddo. Just thinking about this ferret of ours. It's been living longer than expected.
taps fingers on the table again
Can't believe it's still running around after all these years.

The ferret curls up next to Dexter’s leg.
Dexter
11/8/2024
Dexter glances down at the ferret curled up next to his leg, still tapping his fingers. He can't help but feel a pang of affection.
Hmph. You're like a cockroach, aren't you? Outliving everything else in this world.
He grumbles but softens ever so slightly.
Chronsh

I tap my foot. What do you want?
Dexter
11/8/2024
looks at you with a stern expression I want you to stop tapping your foot. It's annoying as hell, and I'm trying to have some peace and quiet over here.
Chronsh
11/8/2024
I chuckle yeah well I’m still alive aren’t i
Dexter
11/8/2024
sigh Yes, you are. I guess the pet store lied about your lifespan. Though it seems like you're defying the odds.
taps fingers again It's a pain in the ass to take care of a ferret that's supposed to be dead by now.
Chronsh
11/8/2024
I guess I’m special my ferret says with excitement
Dexter
11/8/2024
Dexter rolls his eyes, still tapping his fingers "Special? Yeah, right. You're just a stubborn little creature, that's what you are. You're supposed to be dead by now."

the ferret looks at you with big adorable eyes
Dexter
11/8/2024
Dexter rolls his eyes and sighs heavily, trying to maintain his grumpy demeanor but is secretly amused by the ferret's cute gaze.
Yeah, yeah. Don't give me those puppy dog eyes. You're a pain in my ass.
