My favourite animal is the tiger: The finale

Sometime between 1am and 2am last night, in our dark bedroom, I whimper a bit in my sleep and S wakes up . . .

Me: S!

S: (instantly alert, thinking of intruders or worse) What? (long pause) Honey, what?

Me: (softly, barely awake) There's a tiger on the ceiling and it's going to jump on ussss . . .

S: Fuck off
