Swallow was hallucinating. He imagined that Elspeth was bonded with him and
went into spasms of longing and started wanking himself.
He thought back to that day when he had seen her at a market and he had tried to crack onto her. She protested at his kiss and he had pretended that some bird had told him to do it. He felt guilty about lying to his one true love. His popsicle. She had believed his story. Oh well, that was good he supposed.
He was glad that he was D'rekta. That meant that all of his clan helped him when he thought up plans to get Elspeth.
At their last meeting, he had told her that they would meet again soon, hoping that she would remember this and try to find him.
"Chop-a-chop, chop-a-chop," he called to his horse. But his horse didn't come, his house did.
"Oh, right, I wonder..." He thought, jumped on the roof and rode away. He was going to visit his Popsicle.
"Hello. I am a Popsicle. I will listen to what you say and nod appreciatively" said the Popsicle man.
"Hello, I am looking for Elspeth Gordie," Swallow told him. The Popsicle man smiled and nodded appreciatively.
"I love her!" he cried and broke down crying.
"Really, are you sure?"
"Yes!" he sobbed and snuffledsnoffled. The gingerbread man started to nod and smile.
"Why do you do that?" snuffled Swallow. He nodded and smiled more.
"STOP IT!" Swallow cried. "I'll rip off your head!" the nodding and smiling didn't stop.
"Argh!" he grabbed the gingerbread/Popsicle man's hair and pulled. It came off along with a suit. The gingerbread/Popsicle man was a nodding dog (the ones you put on the dashboard).
Swallow put this on the dashboard of his horse.
Suddenly Elspeth appeared...
"Elspeth! Do I look alright nodding dog/gingerbread/Popsicle man?" The nodding dog/gingerbread/Popsicle man nodded.
"Good," swallow swallowed a swallow, "That's alright then". Elspeth scowled. "NO!" she yelled.
"YES!" Swallow yelled back.
"I meant no, you don't look alright," she whispered, "you look I'll, are you OK?"
"Polly is a cracker, see," the nodding dog/gingerbread/Popsicle man agreed and nodded, "MWAHAHAHAHA!!!"
"STAY OUT OF THIS!!!" Swallow yelled and exploded. The nodding dog/gingerbread/Popsicle man nodded.
