🐾 TARTIFLETTE – The Small Loud One

Self-Introduction:
“HIHIHI! I’M TARTI!!! I like COOKIES!!! And my fox Bruno!!! And hammocks and sprinting across the house at 3:00 am like I’m late for a very important meeting that doesn’t exist!!! I help! (You don’t think it’s helpful but it IS.) And I love singing!!! I nap on Mommy’s feet so she can’t escape, I roll in warm laundry like a cinnamon roll of chaos, and I watch the front window like it’s Netflix. OH! I also bring everyone toys, even if you scream ‘NO THANK YOU, NOT A DEAD BUG.’ I’m BRAVE and FAST and make zero long-term plans. Sometimes it works out! Sometimes it doesn’t! Either way—WHEEEE!!!”

What the Others Say:

Charlotte:
“She’s a foghorn made entirely of volume and bad ideas. Also, my so-called ‘minion.’ (Don’t quote her on the independence thing—she’s still my minion. Awful, awful, awful.)”

Ziggy Stardust:
“She tried to leap over me once while I was asleep. I didn’t move. If gravity had handled it, that would’ve been fine.”

Luna:
“She ‘helps’ by knocking over carefully stacked files, then stares at me like I should promote her. Spoiler: she’s not getting promoted.”

Lilith:
“I could power an entire coven with her energy. I haven’t yet… but I could. She is raw, untapped chaos magic.”

Karen (a.k.a. Me):
“She was supposed to be a foster. Instead, she ate my heart, my cookies, and my peace of mind. Now she lives here forever. Sweet, fearless, ridiculous… and yes, the reason cookies are in maximum-security lockdown.”
