I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Aha! This is where a girl needs to hang out to keep track of the name shifts! (And Jessica's new name just got even funnier than it already was!)

...so, as I am feeling sheep-like, I wonder...could any Stompy possibly change my name to Morgan Le? If that wouldn't be too much bother?

(and, MM, if you do feel the urge to follow your wife's lead, my vote goes to a shift of one letter. You could be MiracleMax. And then we could all have fun storming the castle.)

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

You could be MiracleMax.

Would I then have to flinch and cower at the name "Humperdink"?

'cause you know Sean or somebody would immediately change their name to "Humperdink".

Morgan Le - Please indicate in your tagline who you used to be (I have no idea!).

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Yes, yes you would.

You could tell people who phone you: "You rush a miracle man, you get rotten miracles!" And you could complain that: "The King's stinking son fired me, and thank you so much for bringing up such a painful subject. While you're at it, why don't you give me a nice paper cut and pour lemon juice on it? We're closed!"

Plus, you could say to the Empress "Get back, witch!" every time she interrupts you.

...'course, you can say these things even without switching the letter.

As you wish.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Morgan Le - Please indicate in your tagline who you used to be (I have no idea!)

Of course you do! What traditionally comes after the phrase "Morgan Le"?

Man, this is a crazy time for b.org.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Ooh - I thought he was teasing me? But maybe not? Anyway, I think my tagline is already fairly indicative, because it is as true of me as it is of the lovely Husband of Reason. But I could change it, if you like?
