[As ketchup is fired his way, Teddie opens his mouth and tries to catch as much as he can in his mouth. Pokey's fear only makes him STRONGER, or so he tries to tell himself. His roars become less "obnoxious little boy screaming" and more "obnoxious little boy gurgling noises" the more successful he becomes with catching the ketchup. It's surprisingly difficult to do your battle cry with food in your mouth.]

GET OVER HERE AND LET ME LOVE YOU!!
[But he can manage to scream that.]
