Note to babysitter: Nimona is not a child. One should keep knives away from a child, but if one takes knives away from Nimona, they will find themself stabbed. Most likely by a knife.
Nimona is not a knife, but she can grow talons just as long and vicious as any butcher's prized posessions. Not that she has anytime recently—her velociraptor phase ended a few months ago. We hope. She's been spending a lot of time as a puppy, recently. Very cute. But you need to keep something in mind: Nimona is not a dog.
A dog’s bark is louder than its bite, but Nimona’s bite can be quite loud, especially when she has additional rows of teeth. Also, dogs cannot eat grapes. However, Nimona loves them, especially the shiny red-purple table grapes. She's fond of squishing them between her paws. Or claws. Or talons. Or sometimes, just her toes. She's been spending a lot of time with toes of late, particularly in the form of a three-foot-nothing boy. Hence the need for a babysitter, and for that babysitter to remember: Nimona is not a boy.
She uses she/her, and is far more intelligent and violent than a child. Treat that little boy with the respect a Nimona deserves.
