I've got a question.

CONFIRM/DENY:

Horny (adj.) The state of having or possessing horns, somewhere on the person of someone or something.
Example: That big ol' rhinocerous right there? He's one horny guy.

P.S. Horn (n.) Not to be mistaken for a horned instrument. Think 👿 not 🎺
P.P.S. A rhinocerous or "rhino" for short is a mammal with thick skin and ivory tusks (horns) found in specific regions of my home world. For those of you who may not know what they are, here's a picture for reference. See what I mean? Big horny guys!

And would you rather be Alfred or the Dragon King Valvados?

Still, perhaps I should be careful now of noble-hearted people whose names begin with A.

Valvados himself is a dragon, actually.

[He would have also pointed out that dragons aren't mythical, but he's come to the conclusion that they're long extinct on Earth. People here do seem to think they're mythical.]

Although some versions of the story have it that he's in fact a cursed princess... It always seemed to me a rather clumsy way of forcing a happy ending for all the characters involved.

Exactly.

If he's to be the villain, then let him be a villain. It's only a story, so it can be that clear-cut.

Oh.

I think the author was simply narrow-minded. In that version, the former dragon king winds up with Alfred.

But you may have a point.

Well, at that point Valvados is a princess.

But there's no reason she couldn't have been a prince.

Statistically?

I suppose if you want to put it that way.

[Oh. He's new to this concept, too, isn't he? Sephiroth may not be a font of information here, but he knows a few things.]

You realize it's also possible to be interested in both, or neither.

Or, to act contrary to one's preference, in a given circumstance.

Glad I could be of assistance.

[Well, he didn't mind it at least. Got to talk about books some. Became a supervillain. A decent conversation.]
