Queen Cougar & Mother Hen

Who are we, you might ask?  Some brief info....

Cougar Queen is, as the title suggests, both a Cougar and a Queen.  He proudly wears both hats, with matching heels if possible.  By the outward appearance he's an affable guy who doesn't think mean things.  But deep down.... a Queen with high ideals, standards and opinions lurks with a Cougar that wants to use his claws to rip the face off those who annoy him.
CQ is single and on the prowl, but is a shy kitten when it comes to finding a mate.  He works in the service industry (keep your mind out) and is a strict, pre-Vatican, almost fanatical Catholic.

Mother Hen is the eternal earth and room mother.  A working mom who channels her guilt into volunteering for everything, she is always involved and everyone always wonders how she does it.  To which a demure smile, saying, "Oh, I just enjoy it" covers the urge to scream, "You could help too if you weren't so damn selfish!"  Trying to challenge her is usually futile, as she uses her words to hammer down a dissenter as a chicken would use their beak to make a hole in the rock hard earth.  And the clucking over everyone never stops.
MH has more than 2.5 kiddos, and has all stages of development in the house.... and a lot of alcohol.  She is married to a darling man who knows her true colors and loves her more for them.  She is in management and is a Smorgasbord Catholic (I'll believe this, but not that.... sprinkle on this....).

One of the more unlikely pairs on the surface, but have always been avid "Anything you can do,
I can do more" believers.  Mutual annoyance with the general population and a never ending struggle to control the urge to react as we wish is the strongest bond.
