Just because I'm a human doesn't mean I can't serve my country! Please! I can't just sit idly by and watch the sacrifices our troops make without doing something myself!\"\n\n\\\u003eA dead silence fills the room\n\n\\\u003eUntil it's replaced with raucous laughter from everyone who heard what he just said\n\n\\\u003eHis face grows beet red as the laughter gradually dies down\n\n\\\u003eThe wolf reaches up and pats him on the head condescendingly\n\n\\\u003e\"Oh you cute little humie, so full of determination and vigor, you'll make a good husband someday.\"\n\n\\\u003eShe stops the petting and looks over his shoulder\n\n\\\u003e\"Next!\"\n\n\\\u003eHe moves to block her view\n\n\\\u003e\"Please! I just want to do something to help out. There's got to be something I can do.\" He pleads\n\n\\\u003eShe puts a paw on her chin as she thinks, a devious expression growing on her face\n\n\\\u003e\"Hmmmmm, well, we don't exactly allow humies in the military. But we do allow civilian contractors for...specialist roles.\"\n\n\\\u003e\"I'll take it!\" He exclaims. \"Whatever it is I'll take it!\"\n\n\\\u003eShe looks down and begins writing on a post it note\n\n\\\u003e\"Alright humie, go to the office at this address and talk to the receptionist. From there they'll induct you into MATE.\"\n\n\\\u003e\"Mate?\"\n\n\\\u003e\"Stands for the Morale Assessment, Treatment, and Entertainment unit. They make sure our brave soldiers have their psychological needs taken care of while on the front line.\"\n\n\\\u003e\"...okay. So what is it I'll be doing exactly?\"\n\n\\\u003e\"I literally just told you John. And by the way, you may want to begin taking calcium supplements.\"\n\n\\\u003e\"Why's that?\"\n\n\\\u003e\"You'll need strong bones to be in a MATE unit.

Now go to this address.\" She hands him the post it note. \"And you'll be serving a valuable purpose to the anthrostate in no time.\"\n\n\\\u003e\"Okay I'll do that! Thanks Ma'am\"\n\n\\\u003eHe dashes out of the room with a wide grin\n\n\\\u003e\"Next!
