Goblin: You're up! You need to feed me!! I'm starving!!
Me: Ugh, *[my partner who is currently away] created a monster [by feeding you this early]* You have food in your bowl, you're not starving.
Goblin: But I want the goooood stuff!! It's been sooooo long. It's been nothing but dry kibble for ages!!
Me: You had half a can last night. You'll be fine. Let me shower.
Goblin: proceeds to gnaw on vinyl blinds
Goblin: Oh gods, you're headed downstairs! This is it! I've been waiting my whole life for this! excitedly weaves around feet as I descend
Me: Killing me on the stairs will not get you fed faster.
weaving intensifies
Goblin: The can of prophecy! My ancestors spoke of such a thing! Give it! Me! It's mine! Give it! It is for me right!? Food! Give it! Give it! Oh gods! For me? For me! Give it!…
Me: Enjoy.
Goblin: This is the best thing I've ever had, I will savour this meal for…
Me: I'm going upstairs to strip the sheets for the wash.
Goblin: That's my favourite thing! Wait for meeeeeeeeeeeeee!
leaves food mostly uneaten
