Ask or Dare T.O.T.S.!

Another Controversial Riddle

K.C.: *eyes widen as another notification pops up in the Fly Pad, not really expecting it* Another dare, guys! This time it's from lre321

Pip: *eyes widen* Already? We've gone off three or four days without a question or dare and we're getting them now?

K.C.: Maaaybe I was just to busy to acknowledge the notifications *smiles apologetically* The nursery has been busy... *smiles sadly to the ground before turning back to those two* But everything's much calmer now so hopefully we'll get everything done!

Freddy: What's the dare, K.C.? *hunches over the Fly Pad with an excited smile on his beak*

K.C.: It says... *begins to read from the Fly Pad* A riddle for Pip, Freddy and K.C. This animal has a long tongue who green and always jumping

Freddy: *scratches his head* Are they talking about the tongue being green or...? *trails off with a confused expression on his face*

K.C.: I think it was meant to be, 'This animal has a long tongue, who is green and always jumping' *bites her lip* Though please correct me if I'm wrong

Freddy: *pretends to wipe sweat off his forehead* Thank goodness! *laughs* For a second there I thought the animal's tongue is green, and there aren't many animals with green tongues!

Pip: *opens his beak* Uh... *raises his wing* Actually, skinks have green tongues

Freddy: *eyes widen as he blinks twice* They do?

Pip: Uhuh *nods*

Freddy: How much studying do you do in your spare time? *laughs in slight disbelief, wondering why his penguin pal would choose that over having fun during breaks*

Pip: Eh... You know... *smiles as he feels a guilty blush creep up his cheek*

K.C.: *giggles as she places her paws on her waist* Well... I don't think skinks jump, so I think we can cross that one out

Pip: Actually... *looks taken aback as the two look at him weirdly, but they urge him to continue* Skinks do jump sometimes, usually when alarmed or frightened

Freddy: Hey! That sounds like me! *smiles with his mouth open wide in wonder*

K.C.: *chuckles* But you said 'when alarmed or frightened,' so I think that doesn't count as 'always'

Pip: True... *shrugs in agreement*

Freddy: *points out with a smile* I think the obvious answer to this riddle is 'frog'

K.C.: I agree with you *smiles and does a thumbs-up with her two paws at Freddy*

Pip: *smiles* Actually... There are a number of reasons why frog isn't the answer, and if we decide to simply excuse those reasons, there are a lot more possible answers *shrugs*

K.C.: *laughs as she shakes her head* Pip, this is for the readers. Let's keep it short for them, okay? *smiles, albeit a little bit nervously, hoping the penguin wouldn't continue* I don't think they'll want this dare to turn into an amphibian documentary *laughs lightly*

Pip: Actually... *continhes in a more sheepish voice* Not all possible answers are amphibians

Freddy: *exclaims loudly, hoping to interupt the incoming lecture* Frog it is?

Pip: *sighs with a smile* Frog it is!
