"Yeah," Gil says weakly. He doesn't do anything else. The poor man! Well, you are Queen, and you've run out of ideas for pretense, so you sigh and smash your face into his. He gets the idea pretty quick, and you kiss for an unladylike period of time, him digging his fingers into the fur and the jewels, you looping yours down his collar, scarcely breathing, until he pulls away first and clears his throat.
"We could," you say, "relocate to the—"
"Maybe. Um, but I-I-I wasn't done. You also need to preside over an execution."
You straighten up. "An execution?"
"Um, yes. Of a criminal. I-in your snake pit?"
"In my...?" You actually have a snake pit? Of course you have a snake pit. "Do I have to do that first?"
"Y— yeah. I think so."
"Okay, fine. Show me the way?"
Gil takes your hand and shows you, leading you out a smaller side door. The snake pit is evidently installed in the adjoining room— well, you never know when you'll need it. The walls of the pit-room are shiny black, and the pit is deep. A guard is waiting by its lip. "Your Majesty. The prisoner."
Under the guard's sword, gagged and chained, lies Horse Face. What did he do this time? Something nefarious, presumably. "I see," you say. The guard says nothing. "Do I just, um, kick him in?"
"Whatever you do is true and good, Your Majesty."
"Yes, of course. I just—" Hissing is emanating from the pit. You pick your way toward it and lean over the edge to see inside.
Should you have specified, saying "snake pit"? You were always envisioning a pit of thousands of ordinary-sized snakes— a snakes pit, you suppose. Instead, there's one big snake wedged inside. Or a serpent. It's sort of spiky, and it's bright red. Its eye is leering and yellow.
That isn't right. In your gut you feel it isn't right. But this is what you've always wanted—
Isn't it?
