Quest 240

[Voice Post]

[The audio snaps on with a click, but there is a somewhat awkward pause before any speaking occurs; then, after some hesitant shuffling, Rosella clears her throat and begins.]

Yes, well, er. I'm sure that several people have noticed by now that there's, um...that there seems to be a unicorn on the loose in the City. And, er, that's exactly so, because it turns out that one got loose from the zoo the other day, and I'm sure that the poor thing is terribly frightened, and that's why it's been causing so much...er, trouble.

[Have another awkward pause.]

In any case, it seems that it's...well, as unicorns tend to do, it seems this one isn't exactly fond of anyone that's--

[ANOTHER PAUSE.]

That is, it hasn't been hurting the...um, maidens of the City, as it were.

[Look, her awkwardness right now is palpable, okay?]

So, um, it would be the wise and sensible thing to do, I think, for anyone that's married or not...er, chaste, to use as much caution as possible when going out and about places today.

[Here is a pause, in which Rosella fidgets a bit and then clears her throat again.]

And if there are any...virtuous maidens--or boy maidens, I suppose, though it might take better to girls, just the same--that would be willing to help in subduing the poor thing and getting him back to the zoo where he belongs, please do let me know, and I'd be so very grateful for the help.

[And with that public service announcement completed, Rosella shuts off her Network device with a relieved click.]


[OOC: Unicornanigans! Just in time for Christmas. ELITE SQUAD OF VIRGINS, this is your recruitment post! And in the spirit of the curse today, feel free to threadjack everywhere, discuss with everyone, try to make Rosella actually say the word "virgin" (if you CAN)...and just generally have fun!]

Back to being a boy maiden.

As well you should be.

Well, perhaps we can both jump on him, then. Or I'll distract him until you can jump on him, perhaps.
wandbreaker: (Edmund - is this Narnia?)

Is that a judgmental tone I hear?

How do you intend on distracting him?

[identity profile] primrosella.livejournal.com 2010-12-24 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure you didn't hear anything.

Oh, I don't know. Get into some distress or another, I suppose?
wandbreaker: (Edmund - banished to the bench)

I didn't think you meant waving an apple about in hopes of catching its attention.

I could go put daisies in my hair and frolic in a meadow and make garlands of wildflowers until he comes around. That always seems to work in the stories.
wandbreaker: (Edmund - Caspian said whut?)

It's December.

I could frolic in the gently falling snow.
wandbreaker: (Edmund - derp derp derp for once)

[personal profile] wandbreaker 2010-12-24 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
Is it falling gently?

[identity profile] primrosella.livejournal.com 2010-12-24 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
Gently enough to catch a unicorn, I should hope.
