End credit sketches for the last Habzin Hotel trailer that’s been released, “Let’s Misbehave”. I’ve never drawn Alastor before, so big sorries that he doesn’t look as cool!
If I were to make a super scientific hypothesis as an expert in the totally real field of corgi psychology…
I would say the chances of this furry fella actually being too tired to climb those stairs are about 3%.
Which means there is a 94% chance he was just being a manipulative, lazy motherfloofer.
There is also an 8% chance my scientific percentages won’t add up to 100.
Corgis are masters of what I call the “stop-and-plop.”
During certain physical activities that corgis have become bored with or just don’t want to do (because life is hard)… they will feign exhaustion and dramatically hrumph onto the ground. Even with leash tugging and gentle foot prodding they will refuse to take another step. Advanced stop-and-ploppers may even roll onto their back exposing their bellies–further indicating their “doneness.”
Thus begins a battle of wills.
Can the human outlast the stubborn corgi and wait until they are willing to continue walking?
No.
This has never been achieved.
You must gather your stumpy companion in your arms and carry them to the destination.
Some humans will even take precautions for this eventuality.
Once you are home and exhausted from carrying your corgi, you might find yourself stopping and plopping onto the comfiest furniture you own. That’s when your “wayyyy too tired to take another single step” corgi will bring you a toy and beg you to play with them.
This is an alpha display to let you know you have been manipulated and any sense that you were in charge was actually an illusion.
I submit the very last frame of the above video as evidence.
