Stomach: hey, what do we have here? Some goddamned lactose!
Small intestine: we don’t like lactose here, ya know? You’re gatecrashing a very private party!
Large intestine: (pushes him, making him stumble) there’s two ways you can leave here… The easy way, or the hard way. What’s it gonna be?

Large intestine: lactase?!
Small intestine: b-but you’re both…
Lactase: I *said* he’s with me. You got a problem with that?
Stomach: (finishes sizing him up) right. Course not. It’s cool, lactose. Just don’t cause any *problems*, you hear?
Lactose: I-I w-
Lactase: you don’t have to answer that, babe. Just keep walking
nobody fucking appreciates me
I appreciate the fact that later in the evening, lactase is gonna grab the entire length of lactose’s structure with its active site and then break lactose in half.
