Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Rogue Trader -- with bonus Alexis Denisof.

I will have to watch.

Oh. The instructor that breathed on me last instructor class humped my leg today. I didn't bother to act unflustered this time.

Huh.

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

Huh.

He was making a point, and I'll never forget how to do the technique. Still, I yelled, made a face, and shook my leg vigourously.

I can see how that would work, and be memorable.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I will have to watch.

Come to my house. I own it.

Would there be cupcakes?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I'm trying to catch up in Minearverse and it's freaking me out. How long does the soap talk go on?

Perkins, there would totally be cupcakes.

I have three in my kitchen RIGHT NOW, with orange vanilla buttercream.

move out and draw fire

That's it, I'm inviting myself to Plei's house to get to the cupcakes before Perkins!

We need to change our language habits, I suppose. For "shit" we tend to say "fuck." For "fuck" we say "fuck fuckity fucking motherfucker," and for "motherfucker" we say "slimy cuntmuscle."

Robert read a bit of the Dr. James Dobson book on child-rearing we got as a gift to me: "Is your conversation respectful and soothing? Or does your household sound like an army barracks? You must speak in calm tones around your child." To which I responded "Dobson can suck my throbbing cock."

But did you say it in soothing tones?

I must change my swearing habits. I normally sound like Eminem on a bad hair day.

At least I've cut back on the number of "Motherfucker cuntsucker asswipe TURN!"s I let out at lights.
