"'nother preview, read it and weep... "
|
This one's from Entr'acte: The Courtship of Princess Dessler, which I'd say is 80-90% complete. And it's so out of context it's not even funny. Well, actually it is. Garon and Devlin spent the evenings talking about this and that, getting to know each other better, putting away a bit more of the Saurian brandy. On Wednesday night, Devlin actually lost track of his intake enough to get rather pleasantly pissed; Garon, knowing that Corimel was on duty and that he could clear himself out in a few seconds if he needed to, modulated his trick liver to achieve a similar state for parity's sake, at which point their conversation swerved into strange, uncharted territories. Devlin earnestly strove to impress upon Garon that, back on Earth, Amanda's attitude toward her brother (and vice versa) would be considered more than just a skosche odd - that it was in fact a -crime- in most places on Earth, including the one he came from and the one he lived in now - but that he, Devlin Edison Carter, was a high-minded enough, nay, galactically cosmopolitan enough, individual that, if it didn't bother either of the Desslers, it flaming well wouldn't bother him either, by God! Devlin Carter, he declared, was a big enough fellow to share the woman he loved with her own brother, if that was what she wanted. Garon accepted this magnanimous declaration with the grave gratitude it deserved, and replied that he held precisely the same opinion regarding his sister's liaisons with a certain Earthman, which, though not actually illegal on Gamilon, would certainly be considered every bit as weird there as would Garon and Amanda's relationship be on Earth. Furthermore, and to wit, Garon announced that he, Garon Tultalian Dessler, felt that Devlin Carter was a damned fine individual, even if he -was- a somewhat curious color, and if he ever felt adventurous enough to try that sharing in real time, as it were, Garon would be pleased to broaden his horizons. We can only speculate as to how Devlin would have reacted to this remarkable offer, for at that particular moment, he lostwhat little remained of his consciousness. On Thursday, he remembered very little of the aforementioned conversation, which was just as well, and spent much of the afternoon regretting having ever decided to become a drummer.

*Laughs* Gryph ... if that little piece is any indication, it looks like that piece of SOS will be another great one. And am I smoking crack on this, or does Devlin remind anyone else of DJ Croft? Alath A'Tharen Eagerly awaiting the completion of this piece. I do this For SCIENCE! |

On one of the tests (mid-term, maybe? Can't remember) one of the questions interspersed between all the geometry junk was: "What is the difference between a duck?" It was multiple choice, with 4 choices, and for the life of me I can't remember what they were, save the one I picked--and I found out after the test the one that my best friend chose as well, which made it eternally the answer to the question, which was, of course, "The War of 1812". ------------------------ "saaaausaaaage...

My best freind and I, needing to fill up some time during a drive from moss beach to vegas (13.5 hours, with a heavy foot) started playing random assosiation games. (Round hour 8.) We were both over caffinated and underslept, so it seemed normal that weirdness would ensue. Well, after an hour or so of this, we changed the game. I say A word and C word. He makes up B word, and uses that as A word for his response. Points delivered are completely arbitrary. This makes for odd combinations however. trying to explain this game, and the thought process required to mundanes is fun though. -- -Pasha Umm, right....I'll be with you in just a sec now... -- -Pasha "Don't change the subject" "Too slow, already did." |
