I met some  people who kind of reminded me of my own Roxy and Axel. I... I miss them a whole lot....

So! Anyone have any good riddles? I have lots~

A king, his sister, his friend and his friend's wife
all valued dinner more than they valued life.
At last there were three pies on the table
but there wasn't any knife.
How did they serve these pies equally
without causing any strife?

The person who gets it wrong gets a penalty game~

Ding ding, you win.

What do you want~?

[asylumblue.livejournal.com]

Okay~

[kisses him on the cheek]

You don't have to play a penalty game now~

[asylumblue.livejournal.com]

I would have hurt something of yours. Be it you or someone else. That's how the penalty game works, depending on severity.

[asylumblue.livejournal.com]

Yep~ I like it when people get them right! They aren't hard~

[flamin-gay.livejournal.com]

The friend's wife is also the king's sister, so they each get a pie~

Do I get a prize? ♥

[asylumblue.livejournal.com]

You win you win~

....what do you want?

[flamin-gay.livejournal.com]

What everyone wants: just a little munny~♥

[asylumblue.livejournal.com]

I don't have any of that. I'm sorry.

[a pout]

[flamin-gay.livejournal.com]

None at all? Hmm.... Something I could pawn, maybe? Doesn't have to be much.

[asylumblue.livejournal.com]

[checks his pockets-nope, nothing]

I will give you something when I get something, I promise~ Or I could steal it for you if you really want.

[flamin-gay.livejournal.com]

Nah, take your time, kid. Wouldn't wanna reduce a cute little thing like you to stealing.

[asylumblue.livejournal.com]

Thanks~

[flamin-gay.livejournal.com]

No problem~

[onthe-scene.livejournal.com]

...So, there's four of them, right? And just three pies?
...
Well, who served pies without a knife, really!? Isn't he a king? Can't he just call someone to get him a knife!?

[asylumblue.livejournal.com]

If he did, there would be no riddle!

[onthe-scene.livejournal.com]

That doesn't make any sense! Why would he sit around and waste his time staring at some pies instead of just getting a knife already!? That's so... unnecessary!

[asylumblue.livejournal.com]

Who cares? It's a riddle!

[onthe-scene.livejournal.com]

An easily avoidable one!

[asylumblue.livejournal.com]

Well you're still wrong.

[xiglette.livejournal.com]

I heard of this.. The wife and the friend's wife is the same!

[asylumblue.livejournal.com]

Ding ding~ What's your prize?

[xiglette.livejournal.com]

Tell me your favorite story~.

[asylumblue.livejournal.com]

My favorite? I like poem stories if that counts?

To his clubfooted child said Lord Stipple,
as he poured his post-prandial tipple,
'Your mother's behavior gave pain to our savior,
and that's why he made you a cripple!'

or or...

Augustus, for splashing his soup,
was put for the night on the stoop;
in the morning he'd not
repented a jot,
and next day he was dead of the croup.~~

[everthorned.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's clever, I hadn't heard that one before... the friend's wife would have to be of relation to the king, wouldn't she? The sister, I think.

You're quite intelligent.

[asylumblue.livejournal.com]

You got it right~ But that one was easy~

Thanks thanks. I like riddles.

[everthorned.livejournal.com]

Oh, really? I like them too, they make the mind strong.

[asylumblue.livejournal.com]

Then you'll be lots of fun. Roxy might like you too.
