В новый год с обновленной личной подписью!
Собственно,
чуть измененная цитата из совершенно прекрасного и очень
бредового позитивного англо-фика по «Мерлину» Давно хотела поставить, но все никак не доходили руки...
Заодно сразу - и рекомендация на сам фик:

...Arthur looks about for their attacker. On the other side of the field, he espies a sheep, snarling somewhat, and just about balancing on its hind legs. He blinks and looks again, just to make sure. He asks Merlin what it is that they're fighting, just to make certain-sure.
"Evil sheep sorcerer," Merlin explains. "Cursed the crops not to grow."
"Poor Betsy," says the shepherdess. Her eyes well up a little. "She wasn't always evil, you know. But she had an unhappy lambhood. Gareth beat her once, with a stick."
"Gareth?" Arthur asks, and at the sound of this name, the sheep makes a loud, bleating roar, adding lightning to the onslaught of fireballs.
"My brother. He wasn't very nice," says the shepherdess. "Betsy killed him last year, actually -- headbutted him down a well -- but we all thought it was a freak accident."
