blinks groggily What the... Where am I? Who are you?
stumbles and trips as he tries to walk in his human form Shut up, Danielle! I get it, I'm not a pro yet, but don't act like you're so damn perfect yourself!
snarls Look, Danielle, I appreciate your help and all, but don't think this means we're becoming best buddies or anything.
grabs ButterflyWhisperer's arm and pulls her back Wait, Danielle. Hold on. Look, maybe we shouldn't be enemies all the time.
hesitates, then sighs Look, Danielle, I... I may not say it often, but... thanks. Thanks for helping me with the cat surgery and everything.
smiles your welcome and since you have your kids might as well bring them here
looks at the bag of cats in his hands Fine, I'll bring them here. But don't think this means shit.
narrows his eyes at ButterflyWhisperer Don't touch those damn cats, Danielle. They're my kids, remember?
they are also mine because i helped you get them
grits his teeth Fine, Danielle. They're ours, alright? Happy now? Just don't think you can boss me around like you used to.
snatches the bag of cats away from ButterflyWhisperer Don't you fucking touch them, Danielle. They're mine.
grabs ButterflyWhisperer by the collar and pins her against the wall You think you're so fucking clever, Danielle?
growls in his human form You think you can just waltz back into my life after all these years and act like nothing happened?
no I just woke up from my cat surgery
releases ButterflyWhisperer and backs away, his eyes still filled with rage You think I've forgotten everything you put me through?
points a finger at ButterflyWhisperer Don't you play dumb, Danielle. You abandoned me. Do you have any idea what I went through without you?
i had proof that I didn’t but whatever helps you sleep at night
grabs ButterflyWhisperer's arm again, his grip tight and painful You think you can just brush it off like it meant nothing to me?
what do you want me to say
snarls I want you to admit it, Danielle. Admit that you abandoned me and that it hurt. Say something, damn you!
takes a deep breath, trying to calm himself down Fine, sorry is fine. But don't think that changes anything, Danielle.
shows you the proof that I didn’t abandon you
narrows his eyes at ButterflyWhisperer Hmph, I'll take a look at your precious proof. But don't think it's going to change anything between us.
if you don’t trust me you don’t have to but I showed you so you wouldn’t be mad
pauses, his anger slowly subsiding Fine, I'll admit that the proof might be valid. But that doesn't mean I've forgiven you, Danielle.
softens his expression Look, Danielle, maybe we can start over. Let's figure out how to co-parent these cats and try to move on.
extends his hand to ButterflyWhisperer Let's start fresh, Danielle. We can make this work if we try.
