Translating For Roy

Cindy is walking her pet goat Bango on a leash.  

CINDY
Another nice day, don’t ya think Bango?  

BANGO
Maaaa.  

CINDY
They done said we would have a snow storm later this week.  

They see Roy Raccoon walking up to them.  

CINDY
Howdy Roy.  How’re y’all doin’ today?  

ROY
Doin’ well.  Much obliged fer askin’.  My wife’s takin’ the kids to see Star Wars.  I’ve done seen it three times.  

He looks at Bango.  

ROY
Whose this little (pets Bango) guy?  

CINDY
This here’s Bango.  He’s our pet goat.  He done eats the tall grass in our lawn.  

BANGO
Maaaa.  

CINDY
He says hi.  

ROY
You can understand him?  

CINDY
Yup.  My family and I can understand goats.  We had help from a book and we speak to him sometimes in goat talk.  

Roy is amazed.  

ROY
Really?  Mind if I give it a try?  

CINDY
Be my guest.  I’ll be happy to translate.  

Roy bends down.  

ROY
Maaaa.  

Then Bango makes a weird look on his face.  Roy looks confused and bends back up.  

ROY
What did I (looks at Cindy) say?

CINDY
Y’all said let’s paint the pickles red before eatin’ them.  

Roy could not believe it.  

ROY   
What?  I said that?  

CINDY
That’s what Bango thought you said.  

ROY
Let me try again.  

He bends back down to Bango.  

ROY
Ahem.  Maaaaaa.  

Then suddenly Bango giggles while covering his mouth his hoof.  Roy bends back up.  

ROY
Okay.  What did I say this time?  

CINDY
Y’all said I like wearin’ a tutu and play the accordion.  

Roy still could not believe it.  

ROY
What!?  I don’t play the accordion.  

CINDY
Yeah I know that but that’s what Bango thought ya said.  

ROY
This is harder than I thought.  I may have to look fer the book on how to speak goat.  

CINDY
You’re welcome to borrow ours if ya want.  

ROY
Much obliged but I’m headin’ to the bookstore to find a book fer my wife for her birthday so I’ll look up that too.  I best be goin’.  I’ll see y’all later.  

CINDY
You too.  

Roy starts walking.  

CINDY
Least he gave it a try.  How ‘bout (looks at Bango) we mossy on home and git ya some food?  

BANGO
Maaaaa?  

CINDY
Don’t worry we won’t paint a pickle.

This short story you've done featuring these characters is very nice, and I'm sure the artist will like it as well. :)
