We have explained before how Qannik tries to minimize his workload, but everypup pulls their weight around Chez Herd . . . or else.
As the leader of The Herd, Queen Natasha leads by example by taking her turn at security detail. Chief of Security Kiska, however, makes sure that everyone else shares in the burden of security around Sibe Quentin. And that does mean everyone.
Qannik excels at avoiding work in any shape or form. He believes his good looks and charm should be enough. Unfortunately for the Q, Kiska insists on more and chastises him for not handling enough security details.
When the Chief of Security calls you out for not handling your fair share of work, your options are very limited. Despite all protestations, Q-Tip knows that the best choice is to get to work and shoulder the burden.
Well, at least you should make an effort to appear to be working. Qannik half-heartedly wanders out into the yard and makes his best effort at a security patrol. Unfortunately, he would probably be more effective without that look on his face highlighting his puzzlement.

A Shark Attacked My Best Friend
June 20, 2025 - In honor of the 50th anniversary of the theatrical debut of the movie Jaws, the film that was the inspiration for these events, D. K. Wall recorded the story in audio and video. The original story was posted on October 9, 2022.
A shark attacked my best friend when I was 11. His screams were awful. The silence that followed was worse. I was alone in the ocean.
Poor Qannki does not realize that his good looks and charm are wasted on his siblings, that only works on his two legged friends.
Did he go into semi-retirement and not notify anyone?
I have to agree with you Qannik…. Your good looks, charm, and dreamy blue eyes are all the hard work you need to master!
