A Moment of Your Time

Aha, I see our friend Abeth has taken to putting me on the spot. While this topic could be expounded for many more posts, I will try and summarize to the best of my abilities.

At first glance, one might assume that this statement is a reference to two creatures from Harry Potter meeting at some pub in Diagon Alley. This is, of course, incorrect. In fact, the first two words are actually acronyms (F.U.R.N.A.G.I.L. and M.O.N.A.G.E.L.I.T.E.), and read out as follows:

Fresh Utopian Retinal Navigators Accompanying Girls In Leotards

Manky Orange Nectar Aroma Greeting Eleven Little Iberian Troubadour Elitists

Or, in fewer words, young and aspiring optometrists working on mapping out the human (or puppy) eye while keeping a female crime fighting team company happening to encounter upon a musical group of vertically challenged, Spanish megalomaniacs who simultaneously vomit from a sudden waft of the past-expired citrus in tow.

This would normally not seem at all strange, but in this example, they are meeting in a quape, and that makes all the difference. Quape is originally derived from the French Canadian "qua", meaning "walrus milk", and the West Slavic "pe", meaning "on top of a water chestnut"(roughly). But this has nothing to do with the current riddle. It is a decoy. A clever ruse meant to distract from its true meaning. Take the word "quape", rearrange it, and get "upaqe". Rearrange it again, and you get "paque", or "Les Paques", literally "Easter" in French. Ah yes, now it becomes clear. These two groups are meeting at Easter.

So now back to the original question "A furnagil and a monagelite met in a quape. What happened??"

That's what happened. Case closed.
