Gus: It's kinda corny but... you guys know that song from Goatsbusters 2?
Joel: "On Our Own" by Bobby B'aahrwn?
Gus: No! Not that one!
Vernon: Wait...that one...the one about love liftin' ya?
Gus: Yes! 'Higher and Higher' by 'Howard Huntsburro'!
Vernon: Yeah, I remember that one....y'all snuck it into the playlist o' songs fer our tithe iffin' I remember correctly. *Chuckles* That's yer song?
Gus: *Taps his hooves together nervously.* I-I mean we played it at our wedding too...It's a good dancing song! And it-.
Melanie: It may be a little more light and upbeat than I'm sure most of you guy's couples songs are going to be. But the lyrics I think are...pretty fitting for us.
Gus: Well, I think you do more of the heavy lifting in this relationship Mellowmar...*Chuckles*
Joel: Dude, Goatsbusters 2 is so lame compared to the first one...and that song is so 80s it's practically 'pizzle music'.
Gus: Hey! Goatsbusters 2 is an underrated classic! It may not be as great as the first, but it's a damn fine entry into the series!
Broomie: Especially compared to Goatsbusters 2016...
Gus: *Narrows his gaze at Broomie* We don't talk about 2016. Nobody does.
Joel: The memory hole runs deep...shame, they missed a real opportunity to canonize "Extreme GoatsBusters"
Vernon: My favorite bit is the bit with the Taurtanic pullin' up to the dock. *Chuckles*
Dawn: That, and when they turn the Statue of Lipurrty into what is essentially a golem.
Joel: Speaking of, considering how much you dug that movie Gus, I'm surprised you never statted a Statue of Lipurrty Golem for a campaign.
Gus: *Chuckles evilly* Who says I haven't? Both it and Mount Rushmoose, the problem is crafting a campaign that would be fitting to deploy them in.
Vernon: *Chuckles* We've gone purty far off track here...much as I'm lookin' forward to whatever campaign y'all can cram them into. Since y'all protested so much about Gus and Mel's song, what's yer and Megumi's song Joel?
Megumi: The 'Wolf Whistling Song' by Ringo Baahori.
Gus: *Chuckles* An Animalme intro song, color me shocked.
Joel: It's a very pretty piece.
Vernon: Y'all pick that 'cause y'all see Megumi as a wild, untamed wolf goddess? *Chuckles*
Megumi: *Laughs* More so that I see Joel as my Prince. In song, the Prince is specifically referred to as golden swan...even if the prince is actually a fox. Regardless, my Joel does has the neck of a swan. *Snickers*
Joel: And Megumi is pretty close to a feral wolf-girl who eats like a little gremlin. And she loves Apples.
Megumi: *Swats joel playfully* Baaaaaka! *Laughs, then clears her throat as best as she can as she adjusts her glasses.* I-It's true, I do love apples though...*Snickers*
Dawn: Not to...judge, but I am wondering if we'll get an answer sufficiently as exotic from Dylan and Talia.
Talia: Звёздное Лето, K Алла Пугачёва.
Joel: *Laughs* What was that!? Did you just hex us!?
*Talia growls at Joel, and Broomie places a hoof on her forearm, gently petting it to calm her down.*
Broomie: Animanglish please Babe...
Talia: *Huffs* 'Starry Summer', by 'Alla Pawacheva'...
Vernon: I ain't really...I mean...I wasn't familiar with Joel's choice neither, but...I'm really lost when it comes to Grussian chart toppers...
Talia: It is song about the beauty of summer...which as you imagine is very short....how you say 'fleeting', time in Grussia...but it makes me think of Dylan because...he is my starry summer...
*The girls in the group, aside from Val, let out a collective 'Awww...'*
Dawn: That's so sweet...
Talia: He is summer that doesn't end, and he is always with me...also...his wool is soft and warm like caress of meadow grass on breezy summer day...Я люблю тебя, милая, Dylan.
Broomie: я тоже тебя любл Talia...
*The group looks at Broomie with a mixture of skepticism and confusion.*
Broomie: *Shrugs* What? I'm taking Duolamgo courses...
Joel: Duuuude...do Roesetta Stone, or actual classes...Duolamgo is terrible!
*Vernon now turns his attention to Kodi, who's tail is already wagging furiously. The older wolf rolls his eyes, as does Val.*
Vernon: So I guess that leaves y'all t-.
Kodi: *Cuts Vernon Off* "I can't fight this feeling anymore!" By REO Speedwaggin'!
Val: Uggh...
Dawn: Val sounds like she's disagreeing with you there Kodi. *Snickers*
Val: *The vixen huffs, causing her fur tuft to bounce on the tip of her snout. She turns away from the others, crossing her arms.* L-Look, I didn't...I...Uggh...*shakes head* my Damn Dad...
Joel: What, that's you and your Dad's song? *Chuckles* I knew wolves had that stereotype about inbreeding, but foxes too?
*Val stares daggers at Joel, her muzzle curled into a snarl. Vernon simply sighs.*
Kodi: Hey, not all wo-!
Vernon: *Now cuts Kodi off.* YOU DON'T GET TO TALK SISTER RUTTER! *Shakes head* Yer part o' the damn problem!
*Kodi's ears flatten, the wolf letting out a soft whine. Surprisingly, Val pulls Kodi's head into her arms, snuggling it and petting the top of his head gingerly.*
Val: Hey, give the guy a break...he's a Marshmellow. *Val loll's here head as if she's weighing over something* And kind of an idiot...
Kodi: *Perks up an ear* HEeeeeyyy...
Val: A cute idiot.
Kodi: Thank you. *Chuckles*
Val: I get like...half of my musical tastes from my Dad...and he likes a bunch of real cheesers...ones that found their way onto my phone in some form or another.
Kodi: And the night I said 'I love you' for the first time, "I can't fight this Feeling" was playing on my trucks bluefang from my little Velvet S'more's phone.
Val: *Shakes head* Yeah, talk about atmosphere...sadly, that cheeser really stuck though...
Dawn: Well, I happen to think it's a lovely song, surprisingly lovely coming from...er...well...
*Val furrows her brow at Dawn* Watch yourself puffball...or else I'm gonna call up Dad and ask what's his favorite slow jam to rut your Mom to...
Dawn: *Rolls eyes* Oh please, like that's going to-.
*Val pulls her Carrot phone from her pocket, tapping a few buttons before revealing she's brought up her father's contact info. The vixen hovers a single claw over the call button. In response, Dawn holds out her hooves in desperate protest*
Dawn: OKAY! OKAY! Lamb Sakes! *Dawn crosses her arms and huffs* No need to hit under the wool, please...
*Val smiles smugly*
