The Cute and the Dim-Witted

Once upon a time, there was a princess. And she was

cute, not mediocre. In the same land, there lived an

ogre. And he was cute, for an ogre. Despite their cuteness,

neither was too bright. They stumbled and bumbled all day and every night.

Cute as a button, dumb as a rock, as the townsfolk

liked to say. If he weren't such a monster, we'd all come out and play.

They were good together. The ugly and the cute. The monster of

monsters. He was such a brute. She was sweet and dainty.
