Ask A Character #4: Karen Park
May11
Q: Karen, Are there any circumstances under which you would allow cub to talk?
Karen Park: Of course! Satisfying as it is to have Cub be quiet while looking like he does . . . I’m still practical about it. For instance, he can say things like “Duck!” to warn me if I’m in immediate physical danger.
. . . but if there’s a non-verbal way for him to protect me, he has to do that first.
(BONK)
oo, ow! Cub! *puts a cold pack on the Being’s forehead*
I know the natural reaction is that I should be concerned that he’s getting hit in the head, but he’s just so darn cute. All i can do is go “Daw…”
So what? It’s not like he has brain in the head or something …
