"I think any cockroach made into a stuffed animal would be too cute. I like my doll better anyway."
Wednesday doesn't offer any sympathy or even seem to really note that his mother is dead, beyond noting that apparently they give you a monkey if your family dies here. Which is weird. "Unless it was infected today, it doesn't have rabies. Monkeys die very quickly from rabies, so they go through the stages in about two weeks. It would already be rabid if it were infected in the time you've had it, and dead if it were infected before."
A large, black tarantula slowly crawls from the little pocket on her nightdress and settles in her lap, and she strokes its back as if it were a kitten.
