[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: last week in my english illuminated manuscripts class
[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: we were looking at bestiaries
[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: which, you know, weird moral religious texts with pictures and stories and legends about all sorts of animals
[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: and the professor was telling us about how the fish was a symbol of the virtues and good stuff of man
[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: it was high up on the ladder of virtue
[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: because of its sex habits
[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: it doesn't use semen to have sex, you know

[livejournal.com profile] nifra_idril : the spawning?

[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: so it's clean
[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: which is one of the reasons you can eat it during lent.

[livejournal.com profile] nifra_idril : right. bodily fluids=dirty and devilish.

[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: and i was all, wow! I never knew the fasting restrictions had anything to do with semen! fascinating!
[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: uh, not out loud.
[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: in my head.

[livejournal.com profile] nifra_idril : you know.
[livejournal.com profile] nifra_idril : i think that you need to post about semen and fasting.

[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: *grins* i am too lazy to type it out again, though, so it would just be this transcript.

[livejournal.com profile] nifra_idril : some things are unavoidable.
[livejournal.com profile] nifra_idril : like semen fish fasting posts.

[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: i wonder how many spit/swallowing blowjob jokes there would be in the comments.

[livejournal.com profile] nifra_idril : we could start quite a racket on lj betting on jokes in comments, you know.
[livejournal.com profile] nifra_idril : "I give odds on estrella making a blowjob joke in the first five comments"
[livejournal.com profile] nifra_idril : that kind of thing.

[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: heeeeee.

[livejournal.com profile] nifra_idril : we could trade in fic?
[livejournal.com profile] nifra_idril : or humiliating secrets!

[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: see, i'm really bad at this sort of thing
[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: and i suspect you are good at betting and gambling because it goes along with your crazy swearin' drinkin' floozy image.

[livejournal.com profile] nifra_idril : i've got a crazy swearin' drinkin' floozy image?
[livejournal.com profile] nifra_idril : this i did not know!

[livejournal.com profile] pearl_o: you totally do!

[livejournal.com profile] nifra_idril : huh!

...And then there was a tangent and we both got distracted by something shiny. But you get the idea.

*giggles* Well, the REAL book isn't the one we posted for everyone to see, dude! For all you know, I might have clipped out the part where we bet about whether or not you would do exactly this if we just posted that bit.

I feel like the universe should just make a loud groaning noise on its own sometimes. There are times when it would come in handy.

i've got a crazy swearin' drinkin' floozy image?

It's an image? M'God. And here I've been thinking that was the actual honest truth.

Ahahahaha. I am avoiding SO HARD going into a long rambly incoherent thing on the reading I did last night where the guy was talking about truth and lies and images and representations and how all words are metaphors and thus truth is just an agreed upon thing and blah blah blah, but you know, I was half asleep at the time and I don't really think I totally comphrehend German philosophy even when I'm fully functional.

Anyway. Pretend I said something smart and interesting about images and truth and the difference between them.

I'm starting to think that Nif should just not be allowed to interact with humanity.

That said, both of you = so cute I could die.

I choose to believe that her interactions with humanity actually make Nifra less crazy, by exposing her to the noncrazy ways of thoughts. If we kept her in quarantine, the crazy would build and build until her head exploded.

Also don't die! *clings*
