One day, Beardy
found a flute in a park. He tried to play it, but couldn’t, so
he went to Ponytail and hit him over the head with it. This did not
please Ponytail, so he took the flute off Beardy and hit him back. This
led to a brief struggle, which ended when the flute broke after being
crushed between Beardy’s knee and Ponytail’s elbow. This
disappointed them both, so they stopped fighting. They looked at one
another for a moment, then Beardy broke into tears. Ponytail consoled
him, and discovered that Beardy’s pet ocelot had died that morning,
which is why he took his flutely failure so hard. Then they understood
one another on a profound level, and agreed to meet once a week for
lemonade.
