When I finally stopped talking, she said, Are you crazy?Hey! Sam said.No, seriously. You think you're going to change into a cougar? Maybe in thirty years you'll start thinking college boys are kinda hot, but that's the only sort of cougar you can turn into, Maya. Anything else is nuts.
In the excerpt from "The Calling" by Kelley Armstrong, a conversation reveals a humorous moment between characters regarding the idea of changing into a more mature romantic interest, often referred to as a "cougar." One character expresses an extreme view on this transformation, suggesting that while the notion may be laughable, it might become a reality in a distant future. This illustrates a playful banter about age and attraction, emphasizing the absurdity of the initial idea.
The dialogue also highlights the skepticism and reality-check offered by Sam, who doubts the feasibility of such a transition. By labeling the concept as nuts, Sam serves as a grounding force in the conversation, portraying the contrast between whimsical thoughts and practical understanding. This interaction showcases the dynamics of their friendship and the playful nature of their discussions.
