[Hunk considers the power of friendship one of his biggest strengths.

He hears the barking from the other side of the door and he was never particularly scared of dogs. He trusts that Louis wouldn't let him be mauled by an attack dog. But when the door opens, he's delighted by her greeting. She's relatively short in stature, although broad and sturdy, and she reminds him a bit of how he'd imagine his lion would be as a dog. He pets her happily as her little tail wags, careful to keep Louis' gift out of her reach.]

Rosie, huh? She is a very good watch dog!

[As Louis moves her aside, Hunk steps in, bundled up against the cold, and hands Louis a rectangular box. ]

I figured you might like a little something to nibble on, so I made you these.

[When Louis does eventually open the box, he'll find it lined with parchment paper and stuffed with soft, chewy ginger molasses cookies.]

If I'd known you had a dog, I'd have whipped her up a treat, too!
