    I suspect that Tip may have overheard him.

    A starfish showed up, didn’t it?

      Heh. Or, one of the new human staff turned out to be a Bissu priest from the Bugis culture of Sulawesi. Which is admittedly less likely here….

    I suspect Tip may not have ever seriously considered the nature and implications of public bathroom icons before.

      He probably can’t figure out which one he’s supposed to use now…

        I assume that he’d use the one that’s slightly less badly designed for his physiology (I agree with Spider Robinson: our bathrooms are, ergonomically speaking, rather ill-thought-out).

          Wasn’t it Mr. Robinson who said the only thing in the bathroom that makes engineering sense was the towel rack?

            Yes, and even then it was merely by comparison.

          Now you’ve got me imagining all the various forms the room has to accommodate *now*, let alone if the trans-species crowd has its way.

            Squat toilets. About every species can use them, you merely have to put amenities for the smaller ones.

          Japanese bathrooms just crap all OVER American and European ones, seriously. Warmed, padded seats, fore and aft bidets, automatic warm-air blowdryers, soothing music or running-water sounds….. and that’s in the *public* ones. They even make energy-saving/space-saving toilets designed to fit into a corner and with the sink on the back.

          Spider Robinson also thinks that handbasins make fine urinals, which is probably all very well if one is taller than 185 cm.

    Every time the tiger talks I want to give in to MY instincts and brutally honest not and kill him for his pelt and teeth. Hyper-intelligence is nice, but thumbs and a gun tend to win.

      *sigh* stupid autocorrect.

      Oh, so I’m not the only one that just can’t stand the talking bedside rug. I’m crossing my fingers that the authors will definitely forget about him. Maybe not actually kill him off, just put him in a bus and never bring him back.

        Hey, I hate him too! He’s a selfish prick and I want to make him into a coat.

            Oh I am. I’m currently living with 5 of them, plus one stray coming over whenever he feels like it. Even him is more respectful of the others than HT.

    Wait, when did Sweetheart go on date since H.T.?

      She was going out with Dr. Ao in the virtual reality hookup…maybe it didn’t get completed but she was going out with him.

    I’m guessing she counts getting dinner with that guy from the Institute while she was piloting the drone?

      Still lying about the plural, then.

        She apparently had a relationship with Buddy while she was with the pack, although who knows if they did anything that would qualify as a date.

    Aaand H.T. has to eat his words, instead of the staff.

    H.T. is tiger prone to all-to-human jerkiness, while Tip is infamous for tomcatting around. It provides a nice balance.
