Come her, little thing. We dropped these bundles right where we need
the tents to be. These were invented by the late Cleopatra and built
by the late Amelia. See this little green lever? Just step on it,
then stand back.

[Benni goes over and stands on the green lever but nothing happens.
Francesca sighs, then walks over and puts her paw on the lever as
well. The tent unfurls, integral poles interlock, and in a matter of
seconds a complete tents stands where the bundle of fabric had been
before.]

I guess we need to fatten you up a bit! I'll take care of the rest of
these; why don't you go play a while? [She thinks to herself, if
Benni runs around and plays enough maybe she won't get in the way.

[Francesca then presses the green levers on the other 2 automated
tents as well. Benni runs around looking for things to play with.
She sees Prince and does a double take.]

Benni: Hihi! I heard Daisy-chan call you Prince. Is you a goggie? I
haf a goggie in my howse, but her isn't nearly as big as you.


Prince grins back at the (to him) tiny female 4foot. "Yes, I am a
doggie. Wanna go fur a ride?"

Prince lays on the ground so Benni can climb up then makes sure Benni
is stable and has snagged Prince's collar and harness before he winks
at Francesca and takes Benni for a spin.

They take off to see what else is here, Prince careful that low hanging
branches don't sweep Benni off his back. They stop along a trail for a
bit as a mommie and daddy duck escort a brood across to the waterway
then find a patch of blueberries along with a raccoon harvesting some.
Prince snags a few then moves on and finds a little puddle full of
tadpoles. Benni gets excited so he stops and lets her fish for a bit
with paws. She's not actually trying to catch any, but she has fun
until a green snake comes up and spooks her. It's a harmless sort but
Benni doesn't know that!

She jumps back on Prince's back and he wanders on, seeing fields of
flowers. He hears a little rumble quite close and looks at Benni.
She's a little bashful. It was her tummy. His joins in that he is
hungry too and they head back.
