Yay Spidra! Very cool.
Buckle up, kids! Daddy's puttin' the hammer down.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Spidra, that is awesome!
smonster, that is...responsible, but depressing? I'm sorry.
Beth, remember to read slower than usual. People get nervous and speed up and can't "hear" it, so if you read slow enough that you think you are reading too slow, it's probably about right.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
That's very good advice, Erin. I second that!
Ah, smonster... crushes can be fun but many of us get crushed by them. It probably is the better part of valour to live to crush another day.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I thought I'd go through and mark some places to pause.
It took me about 20 minutes to read. I think 30 should be closer to how long it should take. I need the time to think about some of these words before I say them
I don't get frozen stage fright, but positive I am getting sick - yup. really restless just before, yup. or wondering if I can take a nap. or suddenly hoping no one will show. and this happens even before my story time... which I've been doing forever.

Take deliberate pauses to take a drink, and pause every three paras to look at a different part of the audience.
Or pretend to be Poe and drink copiously before and during.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Cashmere, dude, you crash into the OTHER team.

ah, smonster. Good for you- I think you are doing the right thing. (did this come-to-Jebus talk come from C?)

Good thoughts for your teammate, Cash.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Much being-okay~ma for Cash's teammate, and some don't-feel-too-horrible~ma for Cash.
