Don't you just love this party? Everything's so fancy, and there's some kind of hot cheese over there.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Matt, thanks for posting that link! It is nice to not be so alone in my Boone-love.

Ficht nicht mit Der Raketemensch!

I'm still hoping against hope that there's nothing supernatural at all - that she's just insane to the point of hanging speakers off all the trees to whisper at her as she walks around.

Conservative, n. A statesman who is enamored of existing evils, as distinguished from the Liberal, who wishes to replace them with others. -Bierce

Do the voices have to be supernatural? Could just be the rest of the shipwreck survivors, who are also crazy, but without electric beds and broken music boxes for company.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Or it could be a nautural auditory occurance. Either it's a location that echos sounds from farther away, or it's a sound that the mind interprets as whispers.

I have a desk fan that drives me buggy if I place it in a certain part of the bedroom and have it on. My mind tries to interpret it as a radio playing.

That would be great! And everything is somehow technically generated by her own devices. And she spends all her time being scared by the not-monsters she's created.

I would love non-supernatural.

Once we introduce the mythology, that's when the writing cheats tend to come in. Right now they have to play (mostly) by the rules, so there's no fanwanking yet. We still believe they can give us good, rational explanations for everything without tachyon bursts. If they could write it all believably, and not supernaturally, I would love them forever and hug them and call them george.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Daniel, a natural auditory phenomenon would be great. I know of a cave that "whispers" and one's mind can almost make words out of the sound. Spooky as all get-out, but really, just the wind. .

How big is the island anyway? We don't really have any idea, do we?

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

Sorry to go back to a topic that's already been discussed before, but I can't find the post... what is the song at the end of Tabula Rasa that starts out "I got troubles, oh but not today, 'cause they're gonna was away, they're gonna wash away"?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Joe Purdy, "Wash Away."

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

Heh, I started typing that the song at the end of Tabula Rasa was 'Goodbye to You' by Michelle Branch, but that I didn't remember that line. Then I realized what thread I was in, and I'd made a mistake.
