All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Fair enough. I can't say that I have a preference, as such - it's words, words, words that hit my buttons.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I can't even express how much I love it that you make the distinction.

Lovely.

Huge wrod. I'm still composing a feedback letter for her. I'm counting the superlatives.

I do really think that it's important, actually-- because the whole point of poetry is that it has linebreaks, which are another kind of punctuation, another way to give shape to the words as they lie on the flat surface of the page. Poetry written on any sort of curved or jagged surface is redundant, and kind of awkward-feeling. I mean.

Great, I had to sign off the phones while reading the last bit of "Transfigurations", especially when Harry made the garden. Now I have a headache, but I'm happy.

You ask and someone says, "Me, me, send it to me!" and sometimes two or three people say it, so you send it to whomever said me and then you wait for a response. Often, who responds depends on who's around when you ask and/or what fandom it is.

Thank you. So, um, does someone want to beta a Faithfic I'm writing? Basically need it deUked more than anything else. Well, I hope that's all, anyway.
