guess what, I'm a dork

FANDOM STUFF:

--Here, I wrote a little drabble about spies smoking cigarettes because I wanted cigarettes but should cut down on the cigarettes.
--Here, in comments, I stole a very short story and turned it into the first metered, rhymed thing I've written for months.
--Here, my boyfriend wrote a story about cigarettes that's way better than my thing about cigarettes.

WATCH THIS SPACE FOR DEVELOPMENTS! I'm not filtering the heck out of this stuff anymore because I'm just not. Also, I've had some sort of headache for the past few days that's not exactly so much a headache, more like just a mass of bandages hugging my skull very tightly and surrounding me in a fluffy, soothing cloud of disorientation. Guess why.

Oh, great, Sammi has a cold and I'm going to get it in about three weeks. >:[ Should I start stocking up on Vitamin C or just wait until the sniffles start and ride it out?

ROLE PLAYING GAME STUFF:

--My Changeling character, Bloody Sylvia, got tapped to join the Ministry of the Scarecrow, a secret society dedicated to creating and perpetuating urban legends in order to scare mortals away from places where they might be stolen by the Fae. I'm psyched. One of the reasons why I stayed in Changeling is that it's still possible to create and shape storylines without having to stir up a bunch of interpersonal drama. I hope I can do something cool with this.
--I'm thinking of creating a one-off or two-off Changeling game, just for a few people, for fun--something along the lines of mortals trapped in a fairytale. The trick may be finding a fairytale that's obscure enough so that people won't know exactly what to do, but still usable with three or four players. It'd be my first time ever GMing.

Guess why.

Because your uterus is blood-rich and fertile and your hormones are hopping all over the place?

I pulled a muscle in my side the other day and bought some of that "icy hot" gloop today. It's powerful stuff. Burns like a mofo, but it works. (Just make sure to wash your hands thoroughly before doing anything with 'em that happens to involve your undercarriage.)

Nnnnnnnooooooo. I reproduce by sporing.

I wrenched my back carrying laundry a few days ago. I shall have to try this "icy hot" substance you speak of.

Very girly of you. My injury is from mowing the lawn, much manlier. *adjusts groin, spits*

Wouldn't it be cool if we could actually reproduce by, like, popping zits or cutting our fingernails?

It's good stuff. Smells like a really strong, sharp, almost spicy mint, but it's like a liquid heating pad.

I don't have a lawn. I did spend a lot of time dodging dogshit, though.

I wish we could reproduce by mixing equal amounts of humours and saying a little spell and making little homunculi.

My best friend is a biomedical engineering grad student, and his big project involves bull semen, his experiments with which he has shown me many hilarious videos of. I have this sick desire sometimes to take a sample of my own, um, fluid and look at it under a microscope. Just for fun, y'know. And to see if all their heads look like mine.

Mmm . . . fresh-cooked pasties for dinner tonite. (The Cornish meat pie, that is; not the sparkly nipple covers strippers use. Although that deserves an "mmm", too.)

I'm... not sure you know how the body works.

'Course I do!

It's not blood, and the fertility happens a couple of weeks before the menstrual period. Also, the hormonal fluctuation of the average woman is actually less drastic than that of the average man over a 28-day cycle.
