The Reptilian Hind Brain and the Fore Brain have a discussion. Or better yet, the same players have a discussion about babies.

RHB: Babies are cute!

FB: They take a lot of time...

RHB: They are adorable!

FB: ...and a lot of money...

RHB: They have big eyes.

FB: They need stuff, lots of stuff.

RHB: And they make neat noises.

FB: Not to mention what pregnancy does to the body...

RHB: and we could cuddle them!

FB: We'd have to be responsible and sensible.

RHB: And they're so soft to touch...

FB: We'd have to think more than two weeks ahead in our life.

RHB: and fuzzy tails.

FB: We're not the best source of- wait a second, tails?

RHB: Yes, and little floppy ears.

FB: Uh-huh. How big are babies again?

RHB: Some are very very small, like a peanut, and some are bigger than a cow!

FB: Which one are you thinking we'll be having?

RHB: Any of them. They're all neat.

FB: Some parts of the body are already sending dispatches voting against the cow-sized ones. Tell me more about babies. How do you move them around?

RHB: Some by the scruff of the neck and some they just waddle after you.

FB: mmmm-hmmmm. Where does the baby sleep?

RHB: We'll build it a nice warm nest. Or maybe a burrow.

FB: I'm not even surprised. I'm not even surprised that I'm not surprised.

RHB: and when we come home it would run to meet us at the door and chirp!

FB: Can you put in a quick call to one of the memory systems to find some pictures of babies?

RHB: Sure! Here are some I like!

FB: Only one of these is human. The others are, if I'm correct, an opossum, a rhino, a kitten, a fruit bat, a penguin, and a chinese crested goose. Don't you see a problem with this idea?

RHB: Nope.

What's sad is, this is just like living inside my skull already, so I don't know why I'm so amused.
