“I can tell you all about the honey-topped pancakes,” Fleur said coyly. And, she did. She started describing them and just didn’t let up, emphasizing each wondrous facet of their sensory bounty: the subtle floral notes in the aroma when honey flows over the warm cakes, their golden color, pillowy texture, and of course the sweet, toasty flavor. John craned his neck to listen, his teeth chattering all the time in anticipation of chewing up the delicious flapjacks.
At last he blurted, “Alright! I’ll do it!” and hurried from the escape pod. Mother smiled and followed him. I wish I could have said it was nice to see her happy again.

“I can’t wait until that delectable pastry massages my tongue,” he said, dashing away. We chased him all the way to the hockey rink. “There’s one last step to restart those engines,” John explained as he glided gracefully over the ice. “There’s another set of controls. It’s the reason that there’s so much extra space at this end of the rink.”
I was dubious. The official explanation for the additional ice surface, from none other than the Contrarian High Zeppeliner, Marshal of the Skies, was to allow for the octopus twirling to take place at the zamboni entrance.
