Nick: It honestly depends on the fox. There are some of us who take...an almost obsessive amount of pride in always being on top of things and ahead of the curve. To outwit a fox like that...eh...it's not a pretty sight.
Val: I take it you've seen a few.
Nick: Once or twice...you meet a lot of foxes in my line of work...unfortunately...You know what gets a fox like that's dander up the most though? Getting outfoxed by a fellow fox. *Laughs* It's the difference between upsetting and absolutely devastating.
Val: So...have you ever been 'outfoxed' then?
Nick: *Laughs* As much as I hate to admit it...yes. By a bunny of all mammals.
Val: Ahh...so that's how Officer Fluffbutt got you huh?
Nick: Completely trounced me...still does it too. Almost daily...I'd be embarrassed if I didn't love her so much.
Val: Jeeze...sounds like that rabbit has your tail in her purse.
Nick: Very funny, but I'll have you know Carrots doesn't have a purse.
Val: Ugh...
Nick: It's a tod's weakness I'm afraid, it doesn't matter what pelt they wear. The one you love is always two steps ahead of your heart. That's just nature...*Chuckles* I imagine it's the same for vixens too...
Val: Yeah, you'd be wrong bucko...
Kodi: Hey S'more, are you still down for the Sam Hain double feature later? They got “The Thing” and “The Shearing” back to back!
Val: Er...yeah, uh..sure...
Kodi: I got some of those chocolates you like too, the cherry cordials?
Val: O-okay, thanks! Can you like, go already dude. We'll meet up later, alright?
Kodi: Okay, Love you...
Val: Uh-huh, great.
Kodi: *Slithers up behind Val, nuzzling under her neckline with his muzzle as he hugs her.*
Val: W-What are you do-!? Stahp!
Kodi: I'm not leaving till I get an “I love you” or-.
Val: Dude, j-just...let go-, not in front of-!
Kodi: *Nuzzles deeper* Say it...
Val: B-Back off or I'll-! I'll bite you! I mean it Ko-!
Kodi: *Snuggles*
Val: *A purr slips out of Val's muzzle before she quickly clasps her paws to her lips in horror.*
Kodi: *Releases his grip, a smug smile crawling across his muzzle as he hastily retreats.* That'll do, see ya S'more.
Nick: *Flashes Val a half-lidded gaze.*
Val: Don't, don't say it...
Nick: What did I say? Two steps ahead of your heart...
