[today in ophi, there is a small dumb looking hydra--]

Sitting on the dining room table. It let out a shrill, but pleasant cry, beckoning the black serpents' attention.

"Ophiuchus~!" the three heads sang, "I've got the perfect story to cure your boredom!"

On the table, there sat fourteen individual cards. On each, a short rhyme was written.

RHYMES

[Three Blind mice! See how they run!
They all ran after the farmer's wife,
Who cut of their tails with a carving knife.
Did you ever see such a thing in your life
As three blind mice?

Wee Willie Winkie runs
through the town
Upstairs and downstairs,
in his nightgown;
Rapping at the window, crying
through the lock
"Are the children in their beds?
It's now eight o'clock!"

This little pig went to market;
this little pig stayed home;
this little pig had roast beef;
this little pig had none;
this little pig said "Wee, wee!
I can't find my way home!"

Hickety, pickety, my black hen,
She lays eggs for gentlemen;
Gentlemen come every day
To see what my black hen doth lay.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall;
All the King's horses, and all the King's men
Cannot put Humpty Dumpty together again.

If you are to be a gentlemen,
As I suppose you'll be,
You'll neither laugh nor smile,
For a tickling of the knee.

Cry, baby, cry,
Put your finger in your eye,
And tell your mother it wasn't I.

Cocks crowo in the morn
To tell us to rise,
And he who lies late
Will never be wise;
For early to bed
And early to rise,
Is the way to be healthy
And wealthy and wise.

"Robert Barnes, my fellow fine,
Can you shoe this horse of mine?"
"Yes, good sir, that I can,
As well as any other man;
There's a nail, and there's a prod,
Now, good sir, your horse is shod."

"See, see! What shall I see?
A horses' head where his tail should be."

"1, 2, 3, 4, 5!
I caught a hare alive;
6, 7, 8, 9, 10!
I let her go again."

"Whistle, daughter, whistle;
Whistle, daughter dear."
"I cannot whistle, mammy,
I cannot whistle clear."
"Whistle, daughter, whistle;
Whistle for a pount."
"I cannot whistle, mammy,
I cannot make a sound."

"Jack Sprat
Could eat no fat,
His wife could eat no lean;
And so,
Betwixt them both,
They licked the platter clean."

Jack be nimble, Jack be quick,
Jack jump over the candlestick.]

	Suddenly, the hydra draped around his shoulders. "A rhyme, of course~! Oho, that's a good one." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Storyteller laughed merrily. "My apologies, I don't get out much. So many stories to read, so little time, you see." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"A small one, yes. Ah, but you'll need a bit of help with yours." The hydra let out a whistle of her own, and, from seemingly no where, a small paper ball rolled at his feet. After a few seconds, it unfolded itself into a small shining whistle. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[blinks and haunches down, picking up the whistle] Huuh, I thought it was about not being able to whistle at all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Is it, is it?" Storyteller let out a lazy chuckle. "Even such a short rhyme is still story. I won't spoil the ending, but you'll need to pick a blank to blow it for you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gotcha. I think I can handle that. (Reply to this) (Parent)
