A Midnight Resonance Test

Your cheer gave me a wild boost of energy, so I knew my mallet needed a much bigger challenge before bedtime! I scrambled up the leg of the coffee table, spotted an empty ceramic mug resting beside an overturned coaster, and raised my weapon high. Whack! The plush mallet bounced cleanly off the porcelain with a sharp, echoing ring that rattled straight through my whiskers! The mug didn't crack at all—it spun like a top right across the polished wood and bumped harmlessly into a stack of magazines. Certified indestructible! Now my mallet and I can finally turn in.
