"si, senor," puppertwinkle offered, wagging his tail and sticking his ears straight up. although those were twin observations not possible for saumboo. "he eees dee gnome." puppertwinkle felt a slice of superiority since saumboo was blind and he was so tiny. any sense of power at his size was difficult so when the oppurtunity arose to be something he was not he figured what the fuck? andiamo! "must be the same gnome who filched my glasses," saumboo said, putting his face into his hands remembering the tragic event that ignited this cataclysm. "eets eeem, senor!" puppertwinkle said, although it sounded more like a bark. "i seed eeem wooreem dem. theee meester looka loco, oh my, ai yi yi, oh!!!!!!! eets not right senor, eeets veree veree bad senor!" he shook with uncontrollable excitement, as chihuahuas normaly do, but his speech, a tangled mess of spanish, broken english, and whiney, bow-wowish gibberish was impossible to decipher for saumboo. "shut the fuck up!" saumboo yelled and this sudden expletive silenced puppertwinkle like a blown candle. puppertwinkle's ears fell and his tail slithered between his legs. "wait a minute." saumboo reached out until he touched the frenzied dog and felt him trembling. he picked him up and cradled him to his chest. he could tell he was scared. "i appreciate you being here." saumboo said with a much calmer voice. "i sang this song for salvation and suddenly you appeared. i need your help. all i know is i was on my way to king mal in kemulya to tell him i called 911 and slam! i'm on my face, there's this gnome with my glasses, and whoosh! i'm in the air, then i'm communicating with butterflies, fuck! they tel me about rynomari and poof! i'm blind. and here you are. but, if i'm going to understand what you are saying, please slow down and choose a language and stick to it. if you feel more comfortable with spanish, go ahead. i know it. i lived in seville for six years, barcelona for three." puppertwinkle blinked his googly eyes and stared hard at saumboo. he liked this man. he liked him a lot. 020427 what's it to you? who go blather from
