A Knight’s View
Here we go again, another girl, needing rescuing. It’s quite a boring thing really – no one appreciates it any more. And this whole damsels in distress situation too. Don’t just stand there! Call for help! Try saving yourself! Honestly. Why can’t women fend for themselves? Or at least carry a pocket knife if things take a bad turn? Nevertheless, I have to rescue her, or I won’t be accepted into society. I definitely won’t be marrying her though. I have a nice girlfriend at home, who’s much more beautiful than her. I mean, have you seen that enormous forehead? I’ll just set her free and let her go. Sorry, but a knight’s gotta think of his future. Here we go again, captured by another dragon. Time to wait for a prince to rescue me. Hurray. They’re so rude and arrogant, all high and mighty as if they rule the place. I wonder what it will take to find a nice knight. Maybe a diamond crown? Crystal-heeled shoes? A fake tan? Honestly. I really quite liked the dragon but now he’s got to die too! Nevertheless, I have to act scared, or I won’t fit in with the – ugh – ‘stereotypes’ I don’t fancy him though. Not in the slightest. I’m still waiting for someone decent to A Princess’s View
come along. Also, he’s probably acne-infested. Sorry, but a girl’s gotta think of her future.
A Horse’s View
Here we go again, he’s riding on my back. Again. What are women’s problem these days? Fend for yourself! If ONE MORE knight uses me to rescue a princess, I swear – Anyway, this whole situation is getting annoying, seeing as he’s so heavy. Maybe it’s the armour but somehow I doubt it. He barely gives me any time to rest. Neigh! If only horses could file complaints. Then who would be top dog? Not him! Then again, no one would understand me. He chokes me with that rope though, I hate it! Sorry, but a horse’s gotta think of its future.
