The Prince of Thieves Encounters an Unexpected Problem

[wistwisp]

"You can't treat me this way!" snarled the man in black indignantly. "I'm the Prince of Thieves!"

"Thebes?" asked one of the guards, pausing. "I thought Thebes was ruled by a queen," he said thoughtfully.

"It is," responded the other guard. "And I thought she only had daught--"

"THIEVES!"

Their prisoner had had quite enough of their misunderstanding.

...isn't Thebes a market town? (Thebes, Greece and Thebes, Egypt)

[wistwisp]

I don't know. Probably.

I'm using it in more of a fantasyland context, though. :D

Oh. My bad, then xD
I thought you were referencing the RL Thebes, lolol.

[wistwisp]

I was kind of thinking about it.

I read this book once set in the Egyptian Thebes, and the Queen was in charge instead of the King (probably because there wasn't one).

So really the Thebes here is pretty much like the real one, only kind of different.

This made me giggle. I needed that after that US project. <3

Thanks!

You and Ana did a great job! I especially liked how you rickrolled the entire class. <3

[t3h_w0lfy]

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
I'm so glad at least one person appreciated our rickrolling.

Yeah, I read the caption under the guy with the dinosaur and I started giggling, and then the song played, and Elizabeth was like, "Don't have a fit, Molly," but she didn't know what was going on.
