Now Spoof is invisible too

A couple of weeks ago Turtle and Spoof were assigned to work on a project together. Neither of them were particularly happy about it. Spoof can't stand Turtle, thinks she's the most disgusting, annoying person on the planet. Turtle is, apparently, terrified of Spoof. So, instead of finding a time when they could work together, Turtle assigned half of the project to Spoof and vanished to do her half. And then drove us crazy by trotting out of her office every ten minutes to update Spoof on what she was doing, waiting for pats on the back and getting incredibly offended any time Spoof suggested improvements.

The whole project culminated in a display. Today they put up said display. While passing by, Opie stopped to stare at it. "Oh Turtle," exclaimed Opie, "I loved what you've done with this right hand side. It's so innovative, so fantastic, so adorable. You have the most amazing ideas."

"Actually," said Turtle, "Spoof did the right side. I did this left side."

Ohhhhhh......
"Well," stumbled Opie. "Well, it looks good anyway Turtle." 

And that was it. Opie skipped off without even acknowledging Spoof.

'cause that won't enrage someone at all.

We don't expect Opie to be Spoof's best friend but it would be nice to have hard work recognized.
