New Guy and Robot Looking Chap quickly exited the building and walked the short distance to the Aerodrome.

"We're here on assignment from Lieutenant Biggles," said the smother of the albic pair.

"Funny, that." was the reply from the cat, sitting perched primly on her pillow. "I don't have any actual orders from the daft old boy. Can't do anything without orders, dontchaknow?"

Meanwhile, back at the llama corral and hangar, NG and R-LC are surveying the hoofed military transport.

"How do you choose a good llama?", R-LC asked, as he perplexedly scratched his shiny white, oh for this purpose, let's call it a head.

"Well, I heard that people choose which horse to bet on based on whether they ... ahem ... defenestrate just prior to a race," NG responded knowingly.

"Does that work?"

"Well, in my way of thinking, all of the horses poop before a race. It's just a matter of quantifying how we define 'before' ", NG said, "But I place my bets based on the horse's name and what makes me feel lucky."

"Does that work?"

"Hey PlanetHead, stop asking questions and get to work," NG snapped, ashamed to admit that "no," his gambling system wasn't working. Yet.

Meanwhile, Biggles managed to begin cleaning his office. As he used the mop to sop up a chunky puddle, he uncovered a sheet of paper from under his desk.

"Look at this, here I am, an important FMLA officer, with paperwork coming out from everywhere, having to do my own cleaning. I'm an important man. Isn't there a woman around here who should be doing this?", he grumbled.

Just then the door opened, and in walked Ms. Jello Wiggles, ace reporter for the Daily Misquote news and all-around perky young reporter.

I confess I'm a bit confused now. It would appear that there are multiple meanings of defenestration....

pshrynk · 08-20-2008, 01:41 PM

"You'd think they'd have wings, or something, said New Guy," speculatively looking over the list of possibilities.

That Grey One
The One That Poos a Lot
The One That Spits More Than Most of the Rest of Them

"Looks like our CO had a lot to do with naming the little buggers," he muttered.

Little Bugger
Big Bugger
Steve Jordan

"Where did that one come from?"

"Well, here are a couple possibilities,"

The Blue One
The Fish

"Whatta you think, Robot Looking Chap?"

That's OK, it's fiction.

"Whatta you think, Robot Looking Chap?"

"Do you mean the blue one next to the fish? Yes, it looks like a fine choice. I'll take the one on the other side of the fish."

So, our erstwhile heroes leapt atop the llamas, who promptly turned their heads to spit on NG and R-LC. Then, from a standing stop, they furry white beasts blasted out of the hangar and into the air, flapping their wings for height until they reached the warm upper air currents where they could glide.

Meanwhile, back at the office, Ms. Jillian "Jello" Wiggles was pleased to see Biggles in such an embarrassing situation. After all, he dumped her so he deserved to be up to his elbows in defenestrate.

"Big," she said, "What's this I hear about a battle heating up on the transdimensional border? I heard that the armadillopusses are reinforcing the border and stopping traffic."

pshrynk · 08-20-2008, 01:53 PM

"I wonder where those wings came from?"

Taylor514ce · 08-20-2008, 01:54 PM

Meanwhile, from behind the set, Taylor stage whispers to DG: "Defenestrate" means, "to throw out of a window".

Startled, the llamas turned to each other and said, simultaneously, "Wait... we're just props?!"

pshrynk · 08-20-2008, 01:56 PM

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!! I believe they're real! I believe they're real! I believe they're real! I believe they're real! I believe they're real! I believe they're real!"

The two llamanauts plummeted toward the Earth, Certain Death eagerly awaiting them.

Stage whispers back: Just take the meaning from the context. It's fiction. Startling, Hugo award winning fiction from a couple of new writers on the scene, but fiction nonetheless. It's a big word, so y'all just skip over it when you read it, OK? Big Kisses!

And now, back to our story.....

Taylor514ce · 08-20-2008, 02:04 PM

Colonel Certain Death, nicknamed "Seedy", met the llamanauts on the ground, next to Lt. Biggles, who was flipping through a dictionary trying to find "defenestrate", to figure out exactly what it was he had done and/or was standing in. Unfortunately, it was an untested dictionary.

It was so poor of a dictionary, in fact, that when New Guy whispered that the proper way to pronounce Seedy's rank was "Call-o-nell", Biggles couldn't refute it. It was a good plan, thought PH, as he and NG snuck back to the confused-looking llamas, leaving Seedy chest to chest with Biggles, shouting, "What did you just call me?!"

DixieGal · 08-20-2008, 02:06 PM

Aside: T514, that is wonderful!

Now back to our story....

Turning back to face Jello, Biggles introduced her to Colonel Certain "Seedy" Death.

"Ms. Wiggles, I'm a fan. I've read all of your perky, life-affirming columns," he said.

"Fine, always good to meet a fan. But I'm here on a serious story today. My moles at the border keep telling me that there is a huge buildup, a defenestration in fact, of martial-arts trained squirrels on the armadillopuss border. Is there any truth to this rumor?"

"Why, hummm, well you see, uh...."

pshrynk · 08-20-2008, 02:12 PM

"Right! No more of that nonsense! It was silly! Supremely silly, even!"

New Guy grabbed The Blue One's lead and glared him straight in the eyes. After wiping off the cud that subsequently was spat upon him, he stood back and said, "You are real. Real flying llamas. Er. Any way! the Sopwith Llama has been the backbone of the Royal Flying Llama Squadron since The Big One. No more of this katzenjammer nonsense about plummetting from the skies, just because someone had an inferior dictionary!"

The Blue one, next to The Fish, looked sheepinsh, which in a llama, is a fairly natural state.

As The Blue One and the One on the Other Side of the Fish gracefully leapt into the air, Biggles and Seedy watched from the window.

"Scootch over, I want to watch," squirmed Wiggles.

"Sure, there's always room for Jello," said the Colonel.
