"how are you and your archdiocese doing" said Benedict XIV
"fine, your holiness" said Wolkie
"don't tell anyone this but I plan to resign the papacy" said Benedict
"why" said Wolkie
"it's too much for my frail body, I'm slowing down and need someone who's more capable of change" said Benedict
"do i tell anyone about this" said Wolkie
"not until I announce it to the entire College of Cardinals" said Benedict
Wolkie gently touched Benedicts cheek and smooched it, Benedict response by smooching Wolkie what followed was a long sequence of loud smooching and hair rubbing that it looked to anyone who was about to enter the room it was going to get a bit suggestive

"MINE GOTT" yelled Ganswine
Wolkie and Benedict stopped smooching
"it isn't what it looks like" said Benedict
Ganswine fainted
"shall we" said Benedict
"we shall" said Woelki
