Mood icons and ducks

lazulus has sent me a wonderful picture of the Duck in its natural habitat!

In other news, gabbyhope has provoked me into writing mood-icon slash!!!

"Why so sad, mood bear? Here, let me make it better."

"Oh, horny hamster, I don't know why I am so sorrowful. I think it may have something to do with the software system I am but a small cog in."

"There, there, mood bear. Does this feel good?"

"Oh, hamster, those horns of yours are wondrously dexterous..."

"Mood bear, you are so strangely articulate."

"Not much longer... oh, oh, hamster!!"

"No wonder you're hopping up and down, moody. You're one hot teddy."

"Mmm. Visit again soon, hams."
