So there.

The short story is finished.
It has all the subtlety of a tie-dyed warthog, and it is doing some fucked-up and possibly unsuccessful things with narrative conventions.
But it's
finished

Hooray! (I find warthogs quite fetching.)

Okay, now I'm trying to figure out how you get the warthog to let itself be twisted up and dipped. Unless you're just dressing her in tie-dye.
w00t! finishing, though.

You could wrap her up unevenly with fabric prior to dying her: that should achieve the desired effect.

Isn't that more of a batik method?

Batiking uses wax to resist the dyes; Somehow I can't imagine warthogs being all that amenable to waxing.

I'd rather wax a warthog than vacuum a cat.

I am so incorporating that into my lexicon.

Tie-dyed warthogs might not be subtle, but they have a certain WTF charm.

It needs a "WTF charm" caption. Or maybe "I have WTF charm."

Alas I am not the master of adding text to icons. You'd think it would be easier than tie-dying a warthog, but you'd be wrong....
