‘Bill, they want to fly. Scared?’
‘All bar you fear fifty feet butterflies who terrify dragons. It’s unnatural.’
‘Not here.’
‘Only because some imbecile put the magic food in the wrong enclosure. What should have suppressed the dragons’ ferocity was scoffed by the butterflies. They become giants with an attitude problem. They ate the last keeper.’
‘He annoyed them. Free them. I must update my records.’
The scream didn’t surprise George.
George added “deceased” to Bill’s record. ‘I let the butterflies out again this year!’
George knew it was poetic justice. He was that imbecile.
