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

You mean Terence Howard, right?

Yes! Thanks. I had Blanchard on the mind because I'm in the middle of Inside Man and he does the music for it.

“Not dead yet!”

Yargh-- first off, if a woman does a Brazilian because she wants to, that's one thing and go you, but because a guy wants her to?

Hulk! Smash!

Second, I'm equal opportunity. Guys with no hair on the hoo ha just doesn't do it for me. I've wondered if it's the Cuban heritage-- they don't have to be bears, but I like me a man with some body hair.

Reminds me, too, of a series in the MTV Books, that I called "Judith Krantz for the teen set" where one of the lead males was propositioning a girl and told her he wouldn't go down on her unless she had a Brazilian or was at least very neatly trimmed and that he'd done the same. This was also the same character who was revenge fucking his step-mother and the author did not close the door on the scene.

Yet I had to tone down a love/sex scene in mine that wasn't anything close to that. I'm still convinced that because the author of the series was a guy (writing under a female pseudo) and I wasn't.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I knew who you meant, ita.

Matt, my sympathies to you and your family.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

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

A fire whirl? I've never heard of that before. It looks like a dust devil made of fire. Is that really what it is?

As horrifying as all the destruction is, that final photo is fascinating.

A fire tornado, yes. Hubby talks about them. Lord, I hope he doesn't see anything like that on TV, he doesn't need flashbacks on top of everything else.

edit: Firemen are all pyromaniacs, too, just properly channelled. They adore fire. Hubby will talk of fire being alive, and not just because it's moving and changing shape. He says he has heard words in the fire noises, and his crew members agreed with him. The world is weird when you're in the middle of a wildfire, and he loved every minute that he wasn't hating what was happening.

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

A fire tornado, yes.

That's what I was afraid that was when I saw it. Extreme ::shudder::
