Yeah, I did. Thanks. I meant to write back but got distracted by some shiny object...I guess my response never did make it out of Drafts. You made some important points, though, and the edits are still going. Sorry.
I can hurt a demon!! That's right. I'm back. And I'm a BLOODY ANIMAL!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
It makes me a freak how excited I am to drive the crack_van for H:LOTS in Feb. right?
Not a freak at all! In fact, I'm looking forward to your recs.

I meant to write back but got distracted by some shiny object...
No problem. Especially since I still haven't gotten back to Deena on her edits to some of my stuff... [insert thank you to Deena, and the promise of a fuller response later.] I just worry 'cos it's Hotmail, and I know people have sometimes not gotten stuff I sent from that account.

It's a lot like working cold case now. sigh.But I think you'll be pleased, Anne. Only one for the first week features Tormented! Timmy prominently(Clinicallydepressed, poor baby.)Edited because clinically, much like that situation, works better with an "i" in it

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I know *I* love it when I get a history lesson with my fanfic:
In the Greek era sex was like the copulation performed by the most insignificant of animals, a physical necessity, but it wasn’t even necessary for procreation, at least amongst the gods. Case in point, Michael’s parents and their children borne without the need of fornication - Athena to Zeus and Nikita’s husband Hephaestus to Ares’ mother. So the sex enjoyed by the Olympians was ordinary, unfulfilling and plain dull - that is until Aphrodite and Ares happened upon each other and need and want was born.
Aphrodite, the goddess of love and sex had as her domain ‘the sweetness of love’. Her union with the mighty god Ares, made their adventurous escapades mythological, for a different kind of lust was forged and when the two came together the orgasm, as we know it today, was born.

Thrive to spite them
So....is this an AU where Nikita and Michael are gods. Or is this some long convulated way of explaining why they should be making hot monkey sex?
Didn't you quote another story that invoked the Greek gods?

My God. That's amazing. Finally, a worthy successor to Ovid.
Huh. I never thought sarcasm would hurt that much.

I mean, I'm guessing what she said means that there was no pleasure in sex till the god/goddess action, but I read it twice and am still not sure. Not that we all don't, on occasion, write sentences that start out that way(I got a huh or two about an original, last week) But I'm not out there going "Hey, internet!"(It's that Nikita chick, huh? With the Ares and Aphrodite?)
