Bear + Sea Lion

Cozy Cave Meets the Life of the Party

The bear wants to hibernate in peace; the sea lion wants to throw a party on the beach and make sure everyone's having fun — loudly. As friends, this works surprisingly well: the sea lion drags the bear into the sunlight and the bear occasionally tells the sea lion to shut up and sit down, which is exactly what both of them need. Romantically, though, the bear's brooding solitude and the sea lion's insatiable need for an audience creates a slow-burning friction that's more exhausting than exciting. Between the sheets, however, all that tension finds a surprisingly enthusiastic outlet — turns out the sea lion's charm can coax even the grumpiest bear out of its den.
