♪From the slimy depths of the swamp they rise! Great beasties of every shape and size!♪
link Annette volume_up
♪They dance in a ring and...♪ No, that's not right. ♪Their slime they fling and...♪ Huh? Who's there?!
link Sylvain volume_up
Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt. Are you getting in a little choir practice there?
link Annette volume_up
Oh, it's you, Sylvain. Were you listening that whole time?
link Sylvain volume_up
Pretty much? I must say, that song's super creep— I mean...creative! You're the only person I know who could think up something like that.
link Annette volume_up
I feel like you were about to use another word there.
link Sylvain volume_up
Nope! Great song, top-notch, A-plus. Are you going to perform it soon?
link Annette volume_up
I was actually going to sing it for everyone later tonight!
link Annette volume_up
I came up with the lyrics and tune myself, and now that I'm finished, I can perform it loud and proud.
link Sylvain volume_up
And it's a song about...swamp beasties? Did I hear that part right?
link Annette volume_up
And what's wrong with swamp beasties?
link Sylvain volume_up
Nothing...in particular? It's just that if you're gonna sing it in front of everyone, maybe it should be, I don't know...relatable?
link Sylvain volume_up
I mean, swamp beasties are so...beasty. Wouldn't it be better with a puppy or a baby sheep or something cute like that?
link Annette volume_up
Hmm. I see what you're saying. Cute animals, cute animals... Oh! What about bears?! HUGE ones!
link Sylvain volume_up
Yeah, I guess huge bears are better than beasties? I mean, they are pretty cute when they're not trying to tear your face off...
link Sylvain volume_up
OK, that's good—except I'm pretty sure bears don't live in swamps.
link Sylvain volume_up
So if you switch it up, it should probably be about giant bears dancing in the woods.
link Annette volume_up
That is the most adorable thing I've ever heard! Are you secretly a professional songwriter, Sylvain?
link Sylvain volume_up
Absolutely not! In fact, I feel like I should apologize for butting in with ideas when you've clearly been working so hard on this.
link Annette volume_up
Aw, don't apologize. If it helps make it a song everyone will enjoy, I'm all for it.
link Annette volume_up
I'm glad we're close enough for you to give your honest opinion.
link Sylvain volume_up
Well, I've never been one to ignore hardworking girls like you—and I'd love to hear it when it's finished.
link Sylvain volume_up
Wait, what's with the look? Did you come up with the new lyrics already?
link Annette volume_up
Yep! Your suggestions gave me all the inspiration I needed.
link Sylvain volume_up
Impressive! Why don't you sing it for me?
link Annette volume_up
Of course! I'm sure you'll love it.
link Annette volume_up
♪From the forest they appear! A sleuth of bears with cute round ears!♪
link Annette volume_up
♪They dance in a ring and enjoy the beats, but tonight they'll feast on meaty treats!♪
link Sylvain volume_up
That actually might be more creepy somehow? But hey, maybe writing weird songs is a talent all of its own.
link Sylvain volume_up
At the very least, they're great at distracting me from real-life worries! Thanks, Annette!
