Cloud: Don't ask stupid questions.

Cloud:

Me: You know, sometimes--

Cloud: Do not try to spin this into something positive. Just let me sulk.

Me:

Cloud (glares): Do not make me hiss. It's like if someone puts air quotes around a word in their email to you. You know how that makes you feel. Bleh. People.

Me: You know, Lord Byron said, "A cat has beauty without vanity, strength without insolence, courage without ferocity, all the virtues of man without his vices.”

Cloud: I would hiss at him right now though he's a flatterer.

Me: I know you would. Hisses are very powerful. It's okay to hiss sometimes. Just not--

Cloud: --all the time. Blah. Blah. Blah. I know! I know!

Me: It will get better. Do you want some gentle pets?

Cloud: Finally! You humans are so hard to train.
