The Great Pose Negotiations

Mouse buried in paperwork Bear asks for cake and Bunny holds a long wish list

Minutes from an emergency meeting, recorded by Mouse, who insists these are legally binding.

Mouse: “Right. We need a proper allocation of new poses.”

Bear: “I propose a pose with cake.”

Bunny: “I propose a pose where everybody admires me.”

Mouse: “I propose forty-seven poses of me looking important.”

Bear: “That’s just your normal face.”

There was a seven-minute silence while I considered dismissing Bear. Unfortunately he is too cuddly to terminate.

Management, otherwise known as Manda, says she has other drawings to finish. I informed her that this organisation operates on a strict timetable. She asked who wrote the timetable.

I said I did.

She said that explained a lot.

Bunny: “I also need a dramatic looking-over-my-shoulder pose.”

Bear: “And cake.”

Mouse: “Bear, PLEASE stop mentioning cake.”

Bear: “What about a cake-shaped pencil?”

To restore order, I introduced an official Pose Request Form. The form has 19 pages, including an urgent section for cheese-related emergencies. Bunny submitted hers in pink glitter ink. Bear ate his.

Management's noticeboard

While negotiations continue, actual stamps can be inspected in our New Releases collection. Please note that browsing does not count as voting for Bear.

Official outcome: No new poses approved. Three formal complaints received. One cake requested.

Signed, Mouse — Executive Director of Pose Distribution and Unreasonable Expectations.
