So, I know I've been gone for a while but I have a perfectly good reason why.
See, a few months ago I was taking a walk in the park with Mr. Spock when we saw this albino squirrel running by. Mr. Spock decided to chase him and got loose from the leash he was on, so I had to run after them both and make sure my puppy didn't get into any trouble. The squirrel ran into this big hole at the base of a huge tree and Mr. Spock went in right after him. I waited a minute for him to come back out, and when he didn't I naturally started to get worried. When I crouched down to peer into the hollow tree, I ended up slipping and falling through the opening.
Down down down I tumbled, floating through clouds of croissants and past birds playing "Spanish Castle Magic" on candy red Fender Stratocasters. When I finally landed on a grassy patch of land, I saw Mr. Spock a little ways off and followed after him again. I caught up to him and he told me that we'd landed in the magical country of Ainran. Imagine my surprise!
We set out together through the thick forests until we met a helpful griffon who showed us the way to a beautiful castle on a hill. When we went into the castle, we found that it was ruled by a terrible wyrm, who had been overtaxing the people for a hundred years!
Well, I couldn't let that continue, so I challenged the dragon to a duel. Mr. Spock advised against it, since the dragon was so much larger than me, but I went ahead anyway since everyone was counting on me. We settled on a spirited game of badminton to decide the winner. I had the upper hand since wyrm dragons have no legs, but it was still tough going.
Finally I was victorious and the awful dragon slithered away into the ocean, never to be heard from again. After that, the griffon told me about the ancient prophecy which said that a red-haired girl from another world would come (along with her brave dog companion) and deliver them from overtaxation without representation.
They then crowned me the queen of Ainran, with Mr. Spock as my trusty adviser. For many years I ruled as Queen Orihime the Fabulous, and everyone enjoyed all manner of baked goods until one day when Mr. Spock and I were riding through the forest in search of the legendary gluten-free flour for a special cake recipe and got terribly lost, finally emerging back here in our world.
How have you guys been? :D
