There was no doubt in Skipper's mind that Julien, or KING Julien as the lemur preferred to be called, was the most annoying creature on the face of Mother Earth. He was constantly being rude,mean or just plain crazy. Yet, Ringtail wasn't all that bad. Like the time he saved the baby foosa from Savio the snake. That was one of the only things he'd ever done for anyone else without gaining anything from it.

Then there was the time he'd help defeat Blowhole. Secretly, Skipper admired him for it, but he would never tell him that. Oh, no. Not in a million years.

Of course, he wasn't all good either. Like the time he managed to get Rico to go beyond crazy. He'd never forgiven Ringtail for that to tell the truth and never would.

But that was all beside the point. Ringtail was a vain, lazy, crazy,dumb,cruel mammal. Most of the time. Sometimes, though Skipper would never admit it to anyone, Ringtail was like a very very weird younger brother.

I got the idea from Peach Italian Ice on their fic 'Escapades On The Book Of Faces'. It's pretty hilarious. There's a quote in there from Marlene saying how thy're all like a family. A crazy, dysfunctonal family, but still a family. So I had to write this fic.
