Angel: He is dead. Technically, he's undead. It's a zombie. Connor: What's a zombie? Angel: It's an undead thing. Connor: Like you? Angel: No, zombies are slow-moving, dimwitted things that crave human flesh. Connor: Like you. Angel: No! It's different. Trust me.

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

Can you do so without incurring unpleasant consequences for yourself is a better question.

You're very right.

"Fleshy" is my word of the week. It used to be "dorky" and I liked that much better. "Fleshy" started out well, but I need a new theme word now.

You do realize that the air around you is full of air that has already been up your coworker s' noses, right?

And everyone around you is naked under their clothes.

Get the fuck out of town.

No, it's precisely the implications of her and I no longer sharing air that is my motivation.

Snotty?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, ita, what you need is a soundproof bubble to work in! THere would have to be some sort of ventilation, but you could filter like mad.

That might make it harder to steal cookies, I'm not sure.

That you think this is an improvement is quite revealing.

Unless of course you're not talking about the gobbets of mucus dangling from people's fingers.

Still, the potential for confusion is very much there.

Does it need to be an adjective?

I was just being gross. Because...I started to think. And it potentially could gross me out. If I thought too hard. So I'll stop.

I thought it timely. Can you give us some parameters? We're nosing around in the dark here.

If it weren't for the food ... okay, not everyone sucks. Just that those who do suck close.

Does it need to be an adjective?

I don't know. Before, everyone was dorky, and it was fun. Recently, more and more people are fleshy, and it started out well, but is now overwhelming.

Which segues (in my brain, at least) to this chick. I don't know her, have never spoken to her, but every time I see her, she brings sex to mind. Not sex with her, just sex. She's not particularly attractive or naked, or anything. It's like seeing someone triggering the idea that you need to get ginger ale at the store, or something. It's really not personal.

I am wondering, though, if it happens to anyone else, and I imagine it'd be very distracting if it happened to people who found her attractive.
