Well, hello there, chaps and chapesses, pin your ears back. I'm going to tell you my saga. Which isn't much of a saga, really.

My pater is the sit-by-the-fire-with-a-pipe-and-good-book sort of bloke, whereas my mater is the "swashbuckling warrioress" type (by the way, which Redwall book is that phrase from?). My father always said I was too lively for him, and my mother always said that I was too blinkin' lazy for her. One day they had a conversation that went something like this:

Ma: What do you think?
Pa: Oh, rather.
Ma: Do her some good.
Pa: Certainly.
Ma: Teach her to be a goodbeast.
Pa: One would hope so.
Ma: Good a time as any.
Pa: I should jolly well think so.
Ma: Redwall Abbey?
Pa: Quite.
Ma: Qwicksilver! Pack your bags.

And so I came here. Jolly well kicked out, as a matter of fact, but I don't mind. It's a lot of fun here. And I see the Progenitors every once in a while, anyway.

So there you have it, chaps and chapesses. My story, such as it is.
