Chasing a...Unicorn?
You know, I have to admit, this has puzzled me for quite some time. When I first began researching otherkin- after reading a webcomic that mentioned them, and talking to Fenshae about it- I ran across a couple of forums where one girl was claiming to be half-dragon, half-unicorn.
I'll be honest: I died laughing. (Mammal and reptilian? wtf?)
After thinking about it a little more rationally, I can understand where that kind of multiplicity comes in- *bows to Momo and Garnets*- even if the multiples here aren't so... *wry smile*...dramatic, dare we say? However, after thinking about that, prowling the site and a couple of others, I have a question. (Mods, I'm sorry if this has already been put up somewhere. I couldn't find a thread about this!) So, here's the question-
Where are the unicorns?
I mean, I've met a gorgon *waves to OracleofWaltz on OKA* dragons, angels, demons, fae, elves, therians, shadows -*bows to Archer*- and a multitude of other things. I myself am a weird little angelic thingy, but... no one's a unicorn?
Are unicorns too pure to incarnate in human form? (Oddly enough, I wouldn't mock that.) Are they utterly extinct? Do they perhaps become something else when they die?
*chuckles* A friend of mine said that unicorns become angels when they die, and that's almost a plausible theory. (Why plausible? Well, why not? ^_~) Has anyone run into a unicorn? Did they seem legitimate, or like fluff balls? Considering the mythology surrounding unicorns, would it seem like tainting them (or exalting yourself) to be a unicorn incarnate?
Fling responses at me! I'm curious!
