As I was trying to make an ironic observation. No worries. I see where you were going, but just a little pointer, if you'll indulge. A verbal pun is a play on words often relying on ambiguous meanings, such as a tiger in a zoo saying of his neighbour in the next cage "don't listen to him, he's lion", or a fireman warning about a prankster who sets fires just for laughs "watch out, there's arson about". Or even the one about the nonogenarian priest who watched the young boys' swimming tournament and nearly had a stroke, only he couldn't reach. That sort of thing.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
