Puh, It's Obviously Not a Llama

[Frank "Sunny" Laffont]

Frank let out a giggle. "yeah, sometimes they really do need butts kicked," she had to admit. "Even all the cartoons that are all about friendship have butt kicking moments. You haven't lived till you've watched a brilliantly colored pony go all Super Monkey on someone," she gestured a few more sounds and made appropriate sound effects, momentarily distracted from her thoughts of the great horse/llama gang war and her possible contribution to those efforts.

Selina seemed to pick things up again, even taking it a step forward. "Ooooh, Batllama," Frank said, her eyes wide while her head bobbed. "But I doubt that llama is, like, actual Batman 'cuuuuuz I kinda want to have sex with Batman," Frank paused and tiled her head slightly, eyes rolling to the outside, "and I really don't want to have sex with that ll---rabbit," she nodded a few times and then started skipping toward the outside, ready to pick up their--

"Uh, didn't we park a South American rabbit out here?" she asked, looking around, feeling like she really should be seeing a llama right about now.

[Selina Taylor]

    Selina just laughed, “I wonder if there are any pony’s with the power to shapeshift into a monkey… I mean, if humans can shapeshift…” She just let the thought lie. It would be slightly too disturbing if animals suddenly started having mutant powers as well. Humans were chaotic enough as it was.

    Selina then nodded, “If we ever meet up with batman, I hope you don’t mind sharing him,” she teased. When Frank went on to talk about bestiality Selina chuckled, “I wouldn’t want to have sex with a rabbit either,” she agreed. “Not even a rabbit who might potentially be batman.”

    Selina groaned openly when she heard Frank’s question and looked for herself. “We did, but apparently the rabbit decided to go off on its own… Or somebody decided a llama next to the stables was out of place.”

[Frank "Sunny" Laffont]

Frank's eyes widened again. "I know, I keep saying that there are probably mutant, like, everything's out there," Frank was tempted to continue, except there was talk of sharing batman which distracted her pretty well. Though before she could even really comment on that they found the missing llama.

"Well, they couldn't have gotten far," Frank pointed out. she gestured at the spot. "He was a llama after all," she looked over at Selina, "spoilers," then back, "and it's really hard to sneak around with a llama. Trust me," she looked back to Selina, "I tried."

frank stepped forward then, looking around. "Shouldn't there be, like, llama tracks around here somewhere?"

[Selina Taylor]

    Selina nodded her agreement while still searching for the llama. She wasn’t sure what to think at this point. This day had turned out so vastly differently than anything she’d expected that she was almost willing to believe anything.


    Selina laughed at Frank’s statement, “Yes, I’ve tried as well,” she admitted with a teasing grin. “So we should be able to find the creature relatively quickly… unless it’s turned into an actual rabbit, in which case I do believe we’re screwed.”


    Selina glanced to the ground, but she had zero experience with tracking or hunting, “I’m not even sure what they’d look like if there were,” she admitted.

[Frank "Sunny" Laffont]

"OMIGOD," Frank said, actually making the semi-phrase sound like one word. She pulled her head up. "Maybe he really is some sort of mutant llama! Wouldn't that be amazing? I could just--"

And then there was a sneeze. "Bless you," Frank said. "But think about it, there could be this kick butt shapeshifting llama. I bet it has something to do with that disappearing ferret I had that one time, though he was a little---"

Another sneeze.

Frank looked to Selina. "Do you have allergies or something? You're not allergic to llama tracks, right?" Because Frank would naturally assume that was a thing.

[Selina Taylor]

    Selina nodded to Frank’s outburst and let her ramble. The sneeze caught her attention though and she turned towards the sound, as she knew either another person who had possibly seen a llama, or a llama itself could be the source.

    Selina laughed at the idea of being allergic to llama tracks, “No, but I’ll bet that whoever is sneezing is allergic to llama fur… either that or the llama got into something it really shouldn’t have,” she added with a grin. She then waved Frank over to where the two sneezes had come from.

[Frank "Sunny" Laffont]

"Brilliant deduction, Holmes!" Frank cheered, again clapping her hands together. The sneeze went off just as she finished, as if to further agree with Frank's statement. The chipper blonde nodded again before following Selina toward the direction in which the sneezes had come from. Said direction didn't happen to be all that far from where they'd left the stable. There the llama stood, its nose buried in what appeared to be a patch of flowers.

"No, bad llama!" Frank said, moving forward, lunging to grab the reins. Frank dug her heels in and pulled back, jerking the llama's head up. The disgruntled beast turned toward Frank and, with one solid hrrking sound, launched out a glob of spittle. It hit Frank full on, making her take a few stumbling steps back.

The llama followed with a sneeze before turning back to look at Selina, clearly ready for another round if she tried to follow Frank's example.

[Selina Taylor]

    “Are you alright, Frank?” Selina asked as she approached the girl, temporarily staying out of spitting range. She handed Frank a few Kleenexes she’d kept in her purse for Frank to clean herself up if she wanted them.


    Selina then sighed and eyed the llama warily. Why had she let herself be dragged into this again? She carefully got up and approached the llama slowly and gently, before reaching for the llama’s reins, not jerking or pulling it anywhere, just keeping its head at her level. “I’m serious about you buying me a new outfit Frank,” she warned, waiting to see if the llama would spit at her too.


    Selina then picked up a few of the flowers the llama had been eating, not paying any strict attention to what they were and held them out towards the stables in an attempt to lure the llama back without having to forcefully yank it along.

[Frank "Sunny" Laffont]

"Yeah, this is kinda fun, really," Frank admitted, shaking her hands a few times to send a little more of the llama spittle flying. She giggled again, before reaching out for the tissues. They got her face more or less clean, which was what Frank mostly wanted. Meant that she didn't end up eating the llama spit and that she could see Selina's attempt.

The llama did not appreciate Selina. However, it also had a delayed reaction to showing that lack of appreciation. Its attempt to spit didn't even get close, coming out as it did after Selina grabbed the reins. Then the creature noticed the flowers in Selina's hand and suddenly got entirely too interested in them.

"Totes," Frank said, saluting. She hopped over to the still edgy llama, more than willing to help Selina move him along. "So sorry about the whole spitting thing, but man, he really digs the flowers, doesn't he?" Frank turned back, plucking a flower up and munching on it. She shrugged after a few seconds. "I don't get the appeal."

Flower-munching Frank and matching llama both seemed to sort of follow Selina into the stable, as though the Hispanic girl were luring both of them along with one batch of flowers.

[Selina Taylor]

    Selina was relieved Frank seemed fine and glared at the llama when it tried to spit at her, but she quickly realized that staring it into submission probably wasn’t going to be all that effective. When the creature seemed to react positively to the flowers however, Selina let out a sigh of relief. Selina was so grateful that the creature followed her into the stable, the fact that Frank seemed to be following in a similar manner was… interesting, but she didn’t take too much notice as the entirety of her being was focused on the animal in front of her. As she led the stubborn creature into an empty stall she called out to Frank, “Will you shut the stable door for me as soon as I’m out?”


    Selina gently placed the flowers on the floor near the back of the stable and waited for the llama to get far enough inside before moving around it and making her way back out, ready to shut the door if Frank hadn’t. It wasn’t like she didn’t trust the girl, so much as she just thought the girl could probably get easily distracted… like with eating flowers or something. Selina shook her head in slight disbelief, but couldn’t help the smile that crossed her features. This had been one hell of a day that was for sure.

[Frank "Sunny" Laffont]

The creature(s) headed into the stable. Frank almost skipped forward to look at the horses again. She'd been mid-leap, all ready to frolic and do Frank-things, when she heard Selina's comment. "Oh, yeah!" she said, holding up a finger and nodding. She pointed the finger at Selina. "That's a great idea!" Frank then pivoted on the one foot she'd been balanced on, turning back to the door.

Then there were a few more hops and Frank was over and pulling the door closed (with the necessary amount of side effects... well, necessary for Frank). She tugged and pulled and managed to get it all slid into place. Frank nodded and dusted her hands off, turning back to her new friend.

"Yes! Operation successful!" Frank said. She flung her arms up into the air and then did a little dance while making some trumpet noises. The arms went down, the girl bounded forward, and she leaned up to give the llama a slight kiss before rubbing him. "I'm sure you'll fit in just fine here," she informed the creature, giving him a few friendly pats. "And I'll be in to visit you, like, lots," Frank nodded and then looked over at Selina. "And maybe we'll get lucky and our new friend will want to play too!" Frank smiled, head tilting in to meet the llama. Of course, said creature had no interest in having the moment and instead dipped its head to eat more of those oh so delicious flowers.

[Selina Taylor]

    Selina felt a sense of relief when Frank shut the door on the llama. There was something so reassuring about not having to go through all of that over again. She then chuckled at Frank’s enthusiastic outburst and watched as Frank danced. When Frank wondered if she would come “play,” Selina shook her head slightly in response. If she never saw that llama again, it would be too soon, but instead of being sensible, she looked up at Frank and simply replied, “Why not?” She could actually think of many reasons why, but today had been fun and exciting in a far different way than she was used to, and that certainly wasn’t a bad thing.


    Selina smiled at Frank and turned to leave the two of them alone as Selina thought Frank might want to spend more time with her new… pet. Selina just wasn’t all that eager to be spit at again. “I’ll see you around, Frank,” she promised. It was rare she met someone that she liked as much as she liked Frank… but then again, Frank was a rarity as well so she supposed it made sense.

[Frank "Sunny" Laffont]

Frank beamed. "Awesome! See?" She smiled and looked at her llama, who again looked wholly disinterested in the whole affair and more or less settled into its new home. Frank gave it a few more pats before looking back at Selina. The other girl seemed to be leaving and, well, Frank could understand why.

"Oh yeah, totally!" Frank said, bobbing her head a few times. "And thanks for the help! It was super awesome of you and I know that this is kinda weird and all," Frank had to grin, bouncing her eyebrows, "but that's what made it super fun, amiright?" Frank grinned, winked, and then turned, climbing slightly onto the wall of the stable so she could reach in and start petting her llama a little more.

Because what was the point of having gone through all the work of getting a llama onto campus and into the stable if you weren't going to pet it?

(and ride it later, of course)

[Selina Taylor]

    Selina laughed and nodded to Frank, “You’re welcome… and you might be right, but I wouldn’t push my luck if I were you,” Selina threatened playfully. “I can only handle so many South American rabbits in a day,” she teased before heading out.

    Selina walked outside the stables and headed back to her dorm. A nice long shower and some tea sounded great right about now… and she’d need to wash these clothes as soon as possible, for though she had avoided the spit, they still smelled very strongly of llama.
