I found the hum of his computer rather soothing, but it was the complete lack of unicorn carcasses that really pulled the room together.
Diana PeterfreundI think it's vital that we do not sleep together. You know, for the safety of the world." His eyes sparkled and there was just a hint of a smile at the corners of his mouth.

THE UNICORN: The saintly hermit, midway through his prayers
stopped suddenly, and raised his eyes to witness
the unbelievable: for there before him stood
the legendary creature, startling white, that
had approached, soundlessly, pleading with his eyes.

reflecting vistas and events long vanished,
and closed the circle of this ancient mystic legend.
