T-Rex: I've befriended people DECADES ago and we're still friends!
T-Rex: Yep!
T-Rex: Better get used to THIS face all up in your business, friendos!!
T-Rex: And there's a beauty in that! Me and my friends have decided to share our lives with each other for a large, non-significant portion of it! It's nice.
Dromiceiomimus: It IS nice!
T-Rex: Right??
Utahraptor: Yeah, but the same could be said of romantic relationships!
T-Rex: AND IS!
T-Rex: But they're celebrated ENDLESSLY in our culture, with ceremonies and songs and letters from the queen AND MORE. Friendships aren't! Unlike the frankly AGGRESSIVE SHOWINESS of romantic love, PAL love is more subtle, even private.
Utahraptor: Pfft. We've done public displays of friendship before.
Narrator: EARLIER:
T-Rex: Hey look, that's Utahraptor over there! He's my buddy.
Off panel: OH MY GOD, T-REX, WE GET IT: YOU'RE FRIENDS WITH UTAHRAPTOR
Off panel: GOD
