Ahhh, the sweet smell of coinage.
I hope that's all we'll be smelling.
Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
"you can always make two things sound similar (or 'different only in degree') if you describe them abstractly enough."
Isn't that what language is for?
So you are correct that my problem with Farrell is the degree to which he focuses on any particular tail. And the degree to which he avoids the shower.
Well, I don't actually know how much he does or doesn't shower -- do you? I do know how he's willing to characterise his pursuit of tail, and what you appear to find attractive re: pursuit of same.

I think with glam you're still allowed to stab people, but you're aesthetically obliged to start by stabbing them with a very sharp eyebrow pencil.
How about I blind them with glitter and shiv them with a fingernail file?
Also: I hope it inspires naughty thoughts about Curt and Mandy and Jack.
Darling, for the next while, I'll be eyeing the world and thinking it'd look better in a skirt and eyeliner.
Right, wait, I do that all the time, but right now it goes to eleven!

Perfectly acceptable. In fact, I'm pretty sure this is Stage 2 in Jilli's personal defense system. (Stage 1 having to do with Aquanet and a lighter.)

Kinky Androgyny World - I'd vacation there. Why won't Vegas get with the program and give us the adult entertainment environments we really want? Faux Egypt and Paris are sooooooo last year.

Hatpin instead of a fingernail file, but otherwise, yes. Am I that predictable, or are there surveillance cameras on me at all times?

Good lord, this means you all watched me that one time I listened to "Last of the Famous International Playboys" fifteen times in a row and sang along. Thank you for not obviously pointing and laughing.

Pfft. That's what JZ and I do before breakfast.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, I am making good progress with the schoolwork, but should be doing better. In reality, I have plenty of time for stuff, but the two things I'm supposed to be working on are both group projects, so it seems like it would be a kindness to not go right up to the deadline...
