Calvin, you better pay attention to Hobbes today. The monsters under your bed are not the only things that should concern you. Friend or not, if I sleep with a predator, I always pay extra attention.
I have an old “Pogo” book by Walt Kelly, and there is a passage in it that I think fits this situation. One of his characters said…“when you starve with a tiger; the tiger starves last”. Good bye Calvin. RIP
From Wikipedia: .Sambo is a South Indian boy who lives with his father and mother, named Black Jumbo and Black Mumbo, respectively. While out walking, Sambo encounters four hungry tigers, and surrenders his colourful new clothes, shoes, and umbrella so they will not eat him. The tigers are vain and each thinks he is better dressed than the others. They chase each other around a tree until they are reduced to a pool of ghee. Sambo then recovers his clothes and collects the ghee, which his mother uses to make pancakes.

Looks like Calvin might get divided into big, medium and small and dunked in porridge. I’s suggest sleeping with both eyes wide open.

“Readings in Dialectical Metaphysics” sound pretty exciting to me.

It’s not good for Calvin to lie beside Hobbes when he is hungry, I wouldn’t feel very well!!

Well, Hobbes, it’s still better than being turned into ghi.

Readings on Dialectical Metaphysics actually sounds more like Calvin’s type of book.
