Conversation 5

{{Dialogue|pet}}

==Baby platypus==
*'''Platypus''': What are we doing today? Huh? Huh?
*'''Player''': Well, what do you want to do?
*'''Platypus''': Oo, can we do some trigonometry together? Or maybe we could discuss the philosophical implications of postmodernism?
*'''Player''': Um, you're a platypus. A *baby* platypus. Don't you want to burrow in soft earth and splash about in big, muddy puddles?
*'''Platypus''': That sounds good too! What a perfect environment in which to discuss the viscosity and other physical principles that describe the world around us! Where's the mud?
*'''Player''': Uh...right over here. Mud galore. Just follow me...

==Adult platypus==

===Conversation 1===
*'''Player''': So what would you like to do today?
*'''Platypus''': Snoofle-snort sniff. (Not knowing, and having no adequate means of ascertaining for a certainty...)
*'''Player''': Yeah?
*'''Platypus''': Chirrup-chirrup-chee... (...and for fear of prevaricating, or in some form deviating from the paths of rectitude, which have always characterised the generalities of my remarks...)
*'''Player''': Uh-huh...
*'''Platypus''': Woof. (...I'd hesitate to say.)
*'''Player''': You mean, you don't know?
*'''Platypus''': *Cough*. (Correct.)
*'''Player''': You know, you could've just said so in the first place!

===Conversation 2===
*'''Platypus''': Sniffle snuffle churrup-sneeze? (So, it occurred to me... Might I suggest that we hunt for a nice, hollow log inside which we could take a little snooze?)
*'''Player''': Um...that doesn't sound like the most comfy spot for a rest to me.
*'''Platypus''': Chirrup-snuff? Sniff? (Well, how about a nice, irriguous burrow? Or a large aggregation of frowsty vegetation?)
*'''Player''': You want to nap in a pile of rotting leaves?
*'''Platypus''': Brrrip-chirrup! Chirrup! ('Frowsty'! I said 'frowsty'!)
*'''Player''': Sorry, you're still not selling it to me.

===Conversation 3===
*'''Platypus''': Chirrup-chirrup snuffle BARK! (Nice day for a stroll, isn't it?)
*'''Player''': Um, excuse me, did you just...bark?
*'''Platypus''': Chim chim chiree. (I may have done. Is it really necessary to make personal comments?)
*'''Player''': Oh, no, it's not necessary; it's just fun.
*'''Platypus''': Chirp! (Maybe I'd get more respect around here if I wore my monocle more often!)
*'''Player''': Oh, I'm sure you'd get more of *something*!
*'''Platypus''': Grr.. (Hmph. Philistine.)

===Conversation 4===
*'''Platypus''': Chirrup sniffle-snuff? (So, have you read anything interesting lately? A good novel? A historical tome? Winsome love letters?)
*'''Player''': Oh, and what business is that of yours, nosy?
*'''Platypus''': Chirrup-chirrup sniff! (I think you'll find that I have a beak, not a nose, sir!)
*'''Player''': Oo, looks like somebody has their pedantic hat on today!
*'''Platypus''': Brrip-squee? (Do you mean 'pedantic' in the pejorative sense or 'pedantic' in the Shakespearean sense?)
*'''Player''': Whichever makes you most happy, beaky.
*'''Platypus''': Brup. (Well, it makes a difference. And don't call me 'beaky'.)

===Conversation 5===
If you talk to you Platypus while holding smouldering [[lavender]], you will have the following conversation:

*'''Platypus''': Chirrup-chirrup? (Oo, is that aromatic lavender I smell?)
*'''Player''': Why yes! Nice, isn't it?
*'''Platypus''': Sniffle snuffle. (Ah, such a fragrant aroma. I'll tell you a secret - if your burrow ever smells a bit, well, whiffy, a sprig of lavender fixes everything!)
*'''Platypus''': Sniffle-squee! (Nothing says 'home' like a monocle rack, a decanter of port, and some lavender potpourri!)
*'''Player''': Well, I'll certainly keep that in mind if I ever have to, um, unstinkify a burrow!
