"Have them got large, sharp teeth?" "Oh, yes!" said Biff. "Much good for opening packages! Much nice, friends are. You be liking Droffs' friends. Me can take pretty queen and nice Elephant and friends to see Droffs' friend as shortly as you am finishing eatings. Me can show to other Droffs, too." "I would like that very much," said Ozma. "I think I will like the Droffs just fine."
They were tall and slender, with long delicate fingers that they waved expressively as they talked. They also had long hair but it was as soft and sweet smelling as the Droffs' hair was coarse and pungent. The only perceptible difference between the males and females was that the males' voices were a little deeper, and they were a little taller.
"We Gilligoggs are above such barbarous practices. Why, if I had to fight, I might break a fingernail. But we do wish that the Droffs would go away. So long as they are about, the property value on our homes must surely be going way down." "My my!" said Elephant. "Are these Droffs some sort of frightful monsters, like the Kalidahs?"
Another argument might be that the Droffs were not nearly so sweet smelling in comparison. Now, this may be true in one way, but in actual fact, the Droffs had just as high a standard of personal hygiene as the Gilligoggs. And while neither group found the other offensive in this way, they could detect a difference, albeit on a subconscious level.
"They are," said Hootsey with certainty. "I know they are." "Perhaps," said the young lady. "Perhaps they are among the Droffs. I do not know of them. Nor do I especially care to. They might be unpleasant." "But how can you know whether or not they are pleasant if you refuse even to see them?" "Best to be safe," said Dianna. "Why invite trouble?
"What slobs!" said Lisa with distaste. "And that princess had the nerve to say that Droffs were messy!" "But it explains why the Droffs have such low-quality land," sighed Ozma. "It isn't that the Droffs are unsanitary. The very reason the Gilligoggs look down on the Droffs is caused by the Gilligoggs themselves!" "They are high and sophisticated, I guess," added Hootsey.
"Not only have the Sniffers and the Stinkfoots made friends with the Droffs, but the Forest Monster has had a major-league change of heart. But can we at least find the empty shells of our families and give them a proper burial?" "That would be right," agreed the Forest Monster. "Wait a minute," said Ozma. "You mean to say that the bodies are still around? You didn't devour them entirely?"
"So then, they are elephants?" asked Nibbles. "Shaggy elephants?" tweeted Tweaty. "Wooly mammoths?" questioned Lisa and Hootsey together. "Neither of those," replied the princess. "They are just Droffs." "We did not come to seek the Droffs," said Ozma. "Nor did we come to see the Gilligoggs. We were looking for the Saber-Toothed Light-Bulbs. Are they not in this area?"
Each race pretty much kept to itself. I suppose that in a way, the Gilligoggs looked down on the Droffs. They considered them somehow inferior to themselves. The Droffs were well aware of this and were deeply resentful. Now if you or I were to try to analyze the exact reason for this, we might fall short of our goal.
Another argument might be that the Droffs had lower social standards than the Gilligoggs. This argument, too, has to fall by the wayside. For reasons that we will not go into here, the Droffs had had difficulty in keeping up with the Joneses, so to speak. Due to circumstances beyond their control, they had not done quite as well on a socioeconomic scale. So there you have it.
