It is a very strange dog. it's a cross between a dog and a duck. I wonder how it got into the world. We don't think there are any more animals like this. Christian would very much like to have it as a pet because he thinks it looks so cute. Sigrid doesn't want it because it probably can't survive. They also think that it might be handicapped and have a lot of genetic defects. Written by Sigrid and Christian F.

Once he tried to talk to a girl, but the girl immediately rejected him, because pf his look.
His family knew from the beginning that this man doesn't seem like a man for girls.
But then the man found his destiny.
HE
WAS
GAY. 🏳️‍🌈
