The King of Town and The Poopsmith's Relationship

A not-so-dynamic duo.

The Poopsmith only ever shows respect to The King of Town, and never otherwise. The King also seems to respect The Poopsmith and appreciate his help and friendship. Only very rarely does the King insult the Poopsmith's smell and lack of cleanliness. Other than the Poopsmith's usual job of shoveling whatsit, he also often helps the King with various other tasks, almost like a butler. The Poopsmith also sometimes plays a bodyguard role for the King of Town, being the fighting force of The Municipality, although in Where's The Cheat?, the King was attacked by Coach Z and Strong Mad in the presence of the Poopsmith, who either made no effort to intervene or simply didn't react in time.
