No, I mean jealous, as in "Resentful or bitter in rivalry; envious; jealous of the success of others." It is my contention that a certain tree sprite is jealous of the treepenthouse of others.
Let it be here declared that anyone who dares to correct my grammar at these revels may discover that her Guest Key to my unimaginably luxurious treepenthouse no longer fits its solid gold locks. For the same locksmith (a handsome lad, he) who has fitted all the ladies here but moi (all unbeknownst to them, so skillful is he in plying his... trade) with cunning chastity belts, shall change those locks, at only the most softly whispered suggestion from my puckered lips.
I have taken the step of having these chastity belts fitted for all you damsels strictly as a service to my community, and at government expense. My unsullied reputation as well as the security afforded me by my breathtakingly luxurious accommodation made it unnecessary, naturellement, for me to be included in the ranks of the protected.
No, don't thank me, dear sisters. I find gratitude embarrassing. |
