I hope you don't think that I just come over for the spells and everything. I mean, I really like just talking and hanging out with you and stuff.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

beautiful steampunk adventure novel

I think I've asked this question before, but if I did, I obviously don't rememebr the answer: what's steampunk? Is it like cyberpunk? Or am I assuming that all things that end in -punk are alike?

Jilli, I meant, "Take note of the Next Infernal Device - the clockwork harmonic destabilizer, that is," not "Take note of the book."

Well, I need more details about it. Which I can get from the book, right? Besides, a clockwork harmonic destablilizer sounds like it would need tools ... power tools ... an arc welder ...

Steampunk is like cyberpunk, but usually set in the Victorian or Edwardian era, and with lots of clockwork and steam-powered machinery.

I could never, ever hope to compete with Alexia's husband, the Foppiest Fop in all Fopdom

Well, who could, really? I mean, I've seen people try, but it's sort of a lost cause.

Jilli, when do you leave for PDX?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Ah. I get it.

Not that I actually understand what cyberpunk really is, despite people trying to explain it to me many times. I can't get past the "cyber" part of it, and so my brain catches on the idea that it has to involve computers.

But Hec tells me that the 9/11 terrorists' method of hijacking the planes with something as low-tech as box cutters is actually a very cyberpunk concept.

Which, I confess, I still don't understand. If it's low-tech, how is it cyberpunk?

But anyway.

I need to get you cash tomorrow, then, if you're going to be hitting the Lush.

Sure. You may want to try the cell (or Paul's cell) in the event that we're erranding.
