Woodlyn (Beck 6) A slip of the tongue
By Simon1fox
Dam: Well you are due to have a child in 9 months. But you can take it. I'll take you straight home myself.
Rib: You will, as what?
Dam: As a horse. You'll say it was Hermit's and that he let you ride it home.
Rib: How will I explain you're leaving? Won't you look like you're not a pet horse?
Dam: But I'm not. I'm an EONA now. You made it possible.
Rib: Right.
Writer Anthony: So I turned into a horse and she climbed onto me, after flying most of the way. I had to get her home fast. I stood at the door of her house and it opened. Theodore was there, very unhappy, but not pissed off this time.
Rebecca: I can explain if you need to know.
Theodore: Don't bother. You're safe, that's what matters. Another day with Hermit I bet.
Rebecca: Will, yes. This time he showed me some bears he has. They are very friendly bears dad.
Rose: I knew you'd be fine. Bears you say? Any of them, um, say anything to you, about us?
Rebecca: Mom? That's an odd question, but yes. Winnie is the nicest one I know and all of them know about dad. They say he's a jerk.
Theodore: Well, dammit, I can't see why you don't do anything with kids your own age. Talking bears, dragon gazing, and playing at all hours of the day? I'm just glad that nothing happened to you. You've stopped dragon gazing, right?
Rebecca: Father, I don't think I ever could. I'm sure you hate them because they get the better of you, but father, they aren't all bad.
Rose: You can't mean that. You've been up to something these past 2 days haven't you? I can tell.
Theodore: She's right. You always went to the meadow and now 2 days straight you're with Hermit. What's going on?
Rebecca: I told you what happened. I saw his bear family. You can see them tomorrow if you need proof.
Dam Narrating: I stomp my hoof shack my head and weenie in protest and move my head over Rib's.
Horse: I can't show them those bears.
Theodore: What is that horse licking you for? Whose is it?
Rose: Isn't that plain. It's Hermit's horse. Or maybe it's him. Is that you Hermit?
Ruth: Mother? He's just a horse. Yes he's Hermit's horse. He likes me I guess.
Theodore: You guess? Well he doesn't hate your ear. Don't let him bite it off.
Ruth: Father? He's friendly.
Rose: Well send him home. You're going to sleep okay?
Rebecca: I'm fine mom.
Theodore: I will check in on this Hermit. Something's not right about talking animals.
Horse: (Weenie)
Theodore: Well you don't thank god. The last thing I need is a horse that tells me off.
Horse: MM hmm.
Theodore: Did he just say that? Rose, you heard it, right?
Rebecca: I'm right next to it and... "What are you doing"... He didn't say anything.
Horse: "I'm just being another role. Play along." Hello Slayer.
Theodore: What the, he just said "Hello" What did I ever do to you to call me "slayer"?
Horse: It's not what you do to me. You've done nothing to me yet. It's every other creature I speak for.
Rose: So you always talked, or what?
Theodore: Why didn't you talk at the start of all this? What's your name, Maverick?
Horse: Don't be rude also. It's Vince. I'm here bringing your daughter home safely and you mock me. Hello Mam. But now you need to be told something. You are wrong about dragons. They have a duty to the land.
Rebecca: And some of them are nice.
Theodore: And how would you know that? Have you ever met one?
Rose: That would be something nice if it was a good one.
Rebecca: They are all good ones. I've tried to tell you that. And yes I have met one.
Theodore: Here we go.
Vince: I think we can all gather and talk about this, another day, shall we. (To Rib) What are you thinking? They can find out later.
Theodore: What are you whispering to her about? Find out what? (To Rebecca) What where you about to say?
Rebecca: Meet him yourself, when I'm due.
Rose: Due, do you mean.
Writer Anthony: Rose fainted. I walked back slowly. Theo started to think about it and then it clicked.
Theodore: Rose? Are you okay? (To us) She'll be fine. What the hell have you done? What the fuck is he going away for? Answer me!
Vince: My name's not Vince, not for a long time. My name now is Hoover Dam. And if you have to know, I'm a dragon.
Rebecca: Show him.
Theo: Show me what? What's going on? Oh no. Not you! It can't be you! Why the hell does it have to be you of all dragons?
Dam Narrating: I changed right there into me, a dragon Theo knows all too well. Thus that disbelief in his words starting with "On no"
Hoover: What's worse is that you guessed right. She's going to have a child and it's mine.
Theo: I didn't know that at all. Get the fuck out of here! (To Rebecca) And you, you knew all along how I felt about dragons and this is what you go and do, fuck with one? You're only 6. How the hell did he, how did you, what the hell where you thinking, Rebecca?
Hoover: Don't you dare touch her. You must know how corrupt this age is. I'm not even the first and I had hoped to be. At least you know about this one.
Theo: This one? What does that mean? (To Rebecca) You've had sex before now? (To Hoover) I'm going to kill you!
Writer Anthony: Theodore goes to get his sword, but it's not there. He was looking for it in the house, but I whistled and said.
Hoover: Looking for this?
Theo: You bastard! I'm going to fucking rip your guts out!
Rebecca: I lone him and his guts aren't going anywhere. You can't beat him and you know it.
Hoover: She's right, even with your sword. Take it and try, but she's the one you're mad about. I didn't even get to feel it. She raped me in my sleep. And I don't like having to admit that, believe me.
Rose: What's happened? Oh shit!
Hoover: She's a bit fainty isn't she?
Rebecca: Yah, that's my mom. Put down the sword father. You have been wrong about everything for too long. It's time you started to understand.
Theodore: Understand what? You are 6. Wait? You actually raped a dragon? I can't get close enough to cut one and you just walk right up and fuck it in its sleep? Fuck! (To Dam) And you, Mr. Damned, what the heck am I supposed to do about you? You kill people and animals, get my daughter pregnant, and have the nerve to just sit there with that grin. Don't laugh at me.
Hoover: I'm not. But you're right. She gets right onto all of me and you can't even aim at me. That's got to be funny, right? I mean, you just can't get a hint can you, about dragons? We mostly eat the dead, dying, and diseased bodies before they do harm to anyone.
Rose: Okay! It's a dragon in our front lawn. No ones panicky. Rebecca is having his baby and Theo hasn't killed anyone. Okay! I'm fine now. What did I miss?
Theo: You call this fine? He's that dragon I've been hunting down and she raped him in his sleep and is going to have his, whatever. Other than that I think you're up to speed.
Rebecca: Well that's not all of it.
Rose: I'll try to handle it dear. What did else you do?
Hoover: I'd like to know this also. She's said everything I know so far.
Rebecca: I've been having sex for a while now mother. You were passed out when we talked about it. I might end up with a fox also. And this isn't the first time I've been pregnant.
