"Don't make yourself sad / Don't feed me straight lines"

Setup: rosefox is giving the cat medicine.

R: *mutters something*
X: Don't give the cat soda!
R: I... what?
X: Don't make yourself sad; don't give the cat soda.
R: What in the hell are you talking about?
X: That's what I heard you say!
R: I was saying that I needed to goop the cat, and so I would come out here so I wouldn't disturb him too much.
X: Ah, I see.  That makes more sense.
R: [referring to the soda thing]  I don't even see how...
X: Simple!  It makes more sense than you giving the cat soda!
R: ...
X: *cracks up*  You give me the best things!
R: I love you, dear.
