The Comedy of the Tangled Yarn (Part 2): The Untangling ๐งถ๐ญ๐คโจ๐พ
[Scene: The Guest Room. ๐ THE STAFF enters, holding a cup of tea. They stop dead, their eyes wide as they behold the rainbow-colored disaster.]
THE STAFF:
"Muffin? Toby? What on earth... my wool! My expensive merino wool!" ๐ทโโ๏ธ๐งถ๐
MUFFIN:
[From beneath a web of red and blue] ๐ฃ๏ธ๐
Speak of me as I am; nothing extenuate, ๐ญ๐๏ธ
nor set down aught in malice.
*"Staff! The yarn attacked us! It was a coup d'รฉtat of the fibers! We were but defending the guest bed!"* ๐ฆ๐ก๏ธ๐งถ
TOBY:
[Wiggling his pink-wrapped tail] ๐ฃ๏ธ๐ผ
I am a kitten of many colors, Muffin! ๐โจ
Shall I perform the rainbow-sizzle? Or wait for the rescue-snips? โ๏ธ
THE STAFF:
[Sighing and setting down the tea] ๐ทโโ๏ธโ
"Honestly, you two. Give me a minute. Don't move."
[The human servant uses a pair of silver scissors to slowly, carefully liberate the cats. One by one, the knots are severed. โ๏ธ๐ก๏ธโจ]
MUFFIN:
A hit! A very palpable hit! ๐ฏ๐พ
The Sovereign is free! The bonds are broken!
Observe, Toby! The Resident Staff possesses the magic of the blade!
They have restored our executive dignity with a single *snip*! ๐๐ฆ
TOBY:
I am once again a ginger cloud! โ๏ธ๐ฆโจ
Can we do it again? The yellow yarn was very tasty! ๐ง๐
MUFFIN:
Never! One fabric fiasco is enough for a lifetime! โ๏ธ๐ก๏ธ
We shall retreat to the **Cloud Nine Suction Perch**,
and watch the birds until our fur is dry of human embarrassment! ๐ช๐๏ธโจ
[The cats migrate to the window. THE STAFF begins the long, laborious process of re-rolling the yarn.]
MUFFIN:
All's well that ends well, ๐ญ๐โจ
even if it ends with a very disappointed knitter.
Toby, pass the salmon flakes... for we have survived the great web! ๐๐โจ๐พ
[Curtain falls. A sound of rhythmic rolling is heard.]
