“Ooo, guys, yeah. Boris-Ivan-Otto! Yeah. Flat-tail is sooo right: Hawks, eagles, perfect. Flyin’ high. Oooo, love to be that high, wouldn’t you? I mean, imagine the view, eh? And they can just swoop down and—Wheee!”
“Oh dear, Boris. I think Clyde’s been hitting the mushrooms again?”

“Well, Boris, if you were to ask this beaver, I’d say forget the marmots. For messages, always send a hawk – high-flying fire avoiders, and very fast. Or an eagle, but they can be a little beak-y.”
“Beaver-rum-ruh, yum-rum. Right?”
“Otto, manners aside, no one can understand you with your mouth full.”

“Otto, where have you been?”
“I bumped into Alan on my way down. He said to tell you, Boris, that the marmots are on strike. NO messages for YOU! “
“Well, that puts a crimp in our RSVP etiquette.”
“Personally, I think he’s turning into a bit of a yawp-Nazi.”

“Now here’s a question for you, Ivan: Do we have to reply to the coast invite or, given the distance and fires and such, is a non-answer answer enough?”
“Oh, Boris, that’s a real etiquette quandary, that is. Could always ask Otto.”
“Right. And we know what he’d say.”
“Ha! Don’t make me laugh, Boris!”

“Awww, Boris. So sorry your Utterly Otter plans fell through.”
“Me, too, Ivan. It’s so depressing, you know?”
“Yeh, I know. Hey…I’ve got this great stone collection. Let’s grab Otto and go down to the river. A little pebble play always cheers you up. Maybe stir up some new ideas.”
“Ahhh… Thanks, Ivan.”

“Why so pensive, Boris?”
“I just had a confab with Alan. It’s a no-go with our coastal cousins. Seems my timing was off. Something about urchins and tending the kelp forests. They invited us to join them, though. What do you think, Ivan?”
“Ah… All that uni umami on a spike shell. Bit rich for my tastes.”
“Yeah, me, too.”
“Plus, the ravens say half of the Northwest is on fire. I can smell it in the morning air.”

“Alan, Alan…I was dreaming in the sun, my mind was scheming
How to trick the wolfens sniff, sniffing ’round our mountain door.
When, through my rock, I heard a tapping, and I eyed a Raven rapping
With a message from the otters on a distant shore.”
“Stop channeling your inner-Edgar, Felix, and get to the point.”
“Ok, ok. Here’s the skinny….”
