my spirit animal

A rather surrealistic conversation with my kiddo:

Kiddo (K): ma, what's your spiritual animal?
Mom (M): dragon
K: nope, I mean a real animal, not a mythical one.
M: dragon.
K: MAA... a real one.
M: well, dragons are real to me. But if you insist, it's scorpion, then.
K: ma, why do your animals have to be the mean ones?
M: 'coz I like to be deadly, rather than cute.
K: why?
M; dun know. Just like it. Deadly.
K; ooohhkaaaayy..... (sighing under her breath), any other animal comes to your mind?
M:...mhhm...wolf.
K: ma??!
M: well, wolf is cute, fluffy... and deadly. *grinning
K: *silent
