Herbert was embarking on a quest. Margot watched him adjust his belt, a glint of determination in his eye.

�?oI'm going to find the comfiest chair in Oakhaven,�?� Herbert declared. �?oAnd no one will stop me!�?�

Margot sighed. �?oIt�?Ts just a chair, Herbert. Can�?Tt you just sit on the sofa like a normal person?�?�

Herbert waved his hand dismissively. �?oThis is more than a chair, Margot! It�?Ts a throne! It�?Ts�?� it's about the principle of maximum comfort!�?�

Later, Brian found Herbert slumped outside �?oThe Dog & Duck.�?� His face was red.

�?oDad? What happened?�?� Brian asked, suppressing a laugh.

�?oThe barkeep refused to let me try out his armchair,�?� Herbert grumbled. �?oSaid it was for paying customers. Apparently, you have to buy something to sit down. The whole thing is a ridiculous rotation of obligations.�?�

Brian snorted. �?oSo, your quest failed?�?�

�?oNot entirely,�?� Herbert said, perking up slightly. �?oI did get a free sample of peanuts. And I saw a squirrel burying a nut. Fascinating process, really.�?�

Margot found them both an hour later, fast asleep under an oak tree in the park. Brian was using Herbert's belly as a pillow.

The next morning, Laura found Herbert trying to enact a new rule: �?oFamily Naptime After Lunch.�?�

�?oDad, you can�?Tt just declare naptime,�?� Laura said, adjusting her glasses. �?oIt�?Ts not a law. I have to practice saxophone.�?�

Herbert puffed out his chest. �?oAs head of this household, I have the authority! Besides, I read about it in a columnist's article; napping is good for productivity.�?�

Margot walked in, carrying a toolbox. �?oLaura�?Ts right, Herbert. And maybe you should focus on your actual job at Oakhaven Industries instead of reading about naps.�?� She winked at Laura.

Suddenly, Molly made a loud noise. The warrior in Herbert vanished, replaced with a sleepy dad. "Someone needs changing" Herbert said tiredly.
