Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Chatty!co-worker needs (a) his eyes checked or (b) a review of the definitions of "fey" and "androgynous."

He said it's because women's cheekbones are rounder than men's. I should show him a picture of juliana. (Who is most definitely NOT androgynous, not even when she dressed as Eddie Izzard for Halloween.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I like the picture of him with the boots and the puppy. Mostly because the puppy is posing so... formally.

I showed Chatty the pictures that ita linked, and Chatty said the jaw is too masculine.

?!?!

Gah. Wibbling forever.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

While his jaw isn't that manly, surely it's trumped by the slant of those cheekbones, or the fullness of his lips, or those lazily lidded eyes.

You don't have to tell ME, Birthday Girl. Chatty, however, is insane.

What is even happening?

Oh, come on. Even I can see the fey there. His androgeny is what makes his look.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

JRM is one of those people that the more print pics I see of him the less I like him, and then I see him on film and like him more. He needs to be moving (except not that run in the airport in BiLB) or speaking or something.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

Happy Birthday, ita, and belated happies to shrift? (that's what I get for skimming like a skimmy thing.)

And green cards all round.

A coworker of mine used to have that Ewan/JRM pic up at her former job. She was told quite forcefully to take it down, because her male co-workers had thought JRM was a chick, and reacted badly to the XY truth.
