Listen for a breathy whinny. If I close my eyes and listen, sometimes, I can hear a far-off whinny that seems to drag me towards it. -- Mythriss, "More Unicorn Moments" (2006) When a unicorn whinnies, it lets its breath out in little bursts. Squeals of light "laughter" are not uncommon at the beginning of a whinny. A sort of moaning sound at the end is typical. Rich with overtones and building in energy to a climax, a breathy whinny can sound like: a juicy secret a quiet orgasm Accounts of unicorns' breathy whinnies in literature include: The unicorn whickered welcome. -- Peter Beagle's Immortal Unicorn (1995) The unicorn made a whinny, and pawed again with his hoof. -- T. H. White, Once and Future King (1958)
