37th Legend [Voice]

Honestly, are you all done being cursed to act like idiots? As if all princes and princesses do is run around and get captured and free each other or any number of ridiculous things everyone was doing yesterday

I think it was supposed to be more like fairytales, actually. Which, yeah, not big on the realism.

[thefutureking]

Fairywhat?

[awillowywitch]

Fairytales! Y'know, stories where dragons kidnap princesses or where they're held hostage in a tower and the valiant knights or princes have to save them? They're kind of made up to be told to kids, mostly.

[thefutureking]

I've... no, I've never heard of those sorts of stories before. All the stories I know about dragons involve them being hunted down and killed.

[ooc: I don't think Uther told Arthur fairytales.]

[stokerwasahack]

I didn't see anyone being beheaded, either.

[thefutureking]

In Camelot, they're usually burned to death.

[stokerwasahack]

Either way, the perceived criminal is dead.

[thefutureking]

Do they have that outcome in many fairy tales?

[itsa_baby_solja]

It was pretty funny, hey.

[thefutureking]

No, it was not.

[itsa_baby_solja]

You don't think so?

[thefutureking]

Not at all.

I thought it was fun! I got to sing and dance with the woodland animals, and I met a dark, mysterious, handsome prince and I was rescued by another prince. He didn't have shining armor or a white horse -- he was riding a large beetle -- but he was still very nice. The only way it could have been better, really, was if it had changed my hair.

[thefutureking]

Rescue-

Anne, why did you need rescuing?!

[ann_withane]

I went with Prince Cain -- although he's not really a prince, I don't think -- to see his garden. He said he had lilies-of-the-valley and he wanted me to sing for them. His garden was just exquisite; it was like walking in paradise! He had --

[She senses that this is perhaps not the best time to start rambling about the garden.]

Anyway, he wouldn't let me go home. He pretended to send for you, but you didn't come, and then Prince Jaime came on his beetle and rescued me!

[thefutureking]

Wha-

No one sent for me! Who is this Prince Cain?!

[sleepyseer]

I thought it was rather amusing, myself.

[thefutureking]

Of course you would.

[sleepyseer]

Oh come on, Arthur. Surely even you can find the humor in singing woodland animals. As far as curses go, this one seemed harmless.

[thefutureking]

I don't find any humor in it. I find it more than a little disturbing, actually.
