--hundreds of unhappy endings
Hoping for a storybook finale?

After years of thinking that I might
Be doomed to dream only dreams that fail
Have I finally found my gallant knight
Or am I living in a fairy tale?

They say we need to kiss a lot of frogs
If we hope to find that handsome prince
And

Billy? I wonder...

Er, pardon me, but would you happen to be Billy's friend Penny?

[horrible_penny]

Yep, that's me! Are you one of his friends here?

It's great to meet you, anyway!

[primrosella]

Oh, yes, hello. I'm Rosella, one of his friends. I just, er, wanted to let you know that he's safely in my bathtub at the moment.

[horrible_penny]

So still a frog, huh? Thank you for taking care of him, Rosella.

...Should I bring over some of his clothes, maybe? Midnight could be super-awkward.

[itsallawesome]

Woah, I didn't know you could sing! That's awesome!

[horrible_penny]

I didn't know I could, either, but that's not the first time that's happened here. Crazy, right? Thank you, though!

[itsallawesome]

You should start up a band! It'd be awesome!

[horrible_penny]

No one would be in a band with me. I don't even know anyone who knows how to play anything.

[horrible_phd]

Sadly, I am still a frog
And somewhat full of gloom.
But I'm no longer lonely on a log
I'm chilling in Rosella's bathroom.

Ahem. So. That's what's up with me.

[horrible_penny]

I'll be over right away
To bring you home again.
Of all of the curses, I've got to say
That this one's got to be the most insane.

[wolfspecialist]

Someone needs to be keeping track. The City could set a damsel-rescue record today.

[horrible_penny]

Seriously! It's all of the princesses. Female empowerment wasn't a big thing in the fairy tales.

[wolfspecialist]

Yeah, I know, patriarchal society. What are you going to do, though? We don't have enough time left in the curse to talk the City into being politically correct.

[horrible_penny]

I think I'll skip the bra-burning and just enjoy the outfit that came with the curse. It's pretty cute. Besides, we only need to live in the middle ages until midnight.

THAT SONG IS WIN.

[horrible_protag]

Ah, Penny. You have a knight of your own?

It is good to hear that you are not in danger.

Reeeally? Thank you. <3

[horrible_penny]

Kind of? My knight isn't here right now, which is fine, since there aren't any dragons here or anything.

It's very befitting and theme appropriate.

[horrible_protag]

If he is unable to fulfill his duty, I would be more than happy to be there in his stead, even for the smallest lizard.

<3 I have no words.

[horrible_penny]

Aw, thank you, Ca--er. Lord Chisel. I'll let you know if any lizards pop up, okay?
