Now Mr. Tall, Grim, and Overly Buttoned is accusing <i>me</i> of causing an interspecies scandal. </p><p>He calls me reckless.<br>I call him repressed.<br>He files reports.<br>I hide the evidence. </p><p>And when he's not lecturing me about professionalism, he's on his tower balcony playing cello solos so low and desperate they slide right under my skin.
