short story tentatively named 'titanic 3D' or 'brigitte bardot'


i wish Prunelle was a radio-controlled floating cat
she would still be a domestic cat
except with additional floating abilities

for some reason

on a sunny afternoon
i would bring her to the lake
drive her super fast
possibly break a few world records too

unintentionally

after a month or so
her fan base would have grown a lot
and when i'd bring her to the lake
people would be all like

'oh shit, it's Floating Prunelle over here'

that's when i would quit my corporate job
to travel with Floating Prunelle to asia
until she would catch a rare aquatic disease
causing her lungs to be replaced with water lilies

because of me

Prunelle would cough a lot and give up smoking
but she should never have started smoking in the first place
i would bring her to a mountainous place where the air is so dry
that it can cure many aquatic diseases
she would stay in bed for several months
in a mix-gender (humans + cats) hospital
run by a precocious young doctor

soon enough

the water lilies that replaced her lungs would stop growing
and i would start writing an evasive poetry book
about her rare aquatic disease
and how she became
a radio-controlled
floating
cat
