Even though shaped a bit like a cockroach, my Lovebug can produce
the stuff inside her teeny little heart. All I have to do is chant a
certain incantation and then to have her kiss me once or twice each day,
and I stay as big as I like!"
"But that is terrible!" said Tweaty. "You can't abuse Love that way!
Love is supposed to be beautiful and friendly and stuff like that! To
cheapen this sacred gift by forcing someone into submission by magic or
force is an abuse of Love, and not what the gods had in mind for us at
all. If you are making this Love-insect your slave, you are abusing the
whole concept and also missing the point!"
With another tremendous roar, the huge spider was gone. He obviously did
not care for any more lecturing that day.
"Good riddance, I say!" spoke Nibbles. "That big old thing was ugly! And
it smelled awful!"
"Where's Fisher?" asked Elephant.
"I think the thingy ate her up after all."
"I sure hope not!"
"I'm fine," came the feline meow. "Is that beast gone away yet?"
"It has," answered the pachyderm. Oddly, neither Nibbles nor Tweaty felt
the slightest tinge of fear at the sight of the cat. In Oz, natural
enemies ofttimes become the dearest of friends.
