a quick question about some of the equipment, after a rather intense encounter with a mr. punisher at the party

what, exactly, is yaoi? the fact i had a hardcore encounter where i'm not even sure what happened to me leaves me wondering if i should be concerned.

[This might not be the first time this question appears on the forums - as it's quickly deleted for being posted in the wrong topic, and then reposted to a different topic... and then deleted again.

And reposted, again, out of no small measure of spite for the head admin.]

attractive people alone don't make a love story.

[glassbell]

Tell that to the fans of it. Or writers. Maybe they see something really special between em?

Also congrats on getting your answer about what yaoi is.

[sicklysweet]

so it's just wishful thinking, which is fair enough for most relationships i've seen

[glassbell]

Not into dating or the like?

[sicklysweet]

i'd consider it if it seemed worth my while, but it seems like a waste of time, effort, and money.

[glassbell]

I guess that's fair I've heard some sad stories. What's worthwhile for you, then?

[sicklysweet]

[big, big bepis]

i wont say i have any sort of lofty standards like "oh, he should be handsome and smart and kind" because i would rather gag, and because that still wouldn't make it worthwhile.

because those are ephemeral things that won't last, so there's no reason to bother

[glassbell]

[ Owen's a size queen confirmed ]

Oh, you're talking about a lover! I did not expect that, honestly.

[ On a game chat??? ]

You seem pretty confident about it though. If you think it's a waste, you can spend that time and money then on other things, yeah?

[sicklysweet]

yeah, that’s why i have dogs.

[glassbell]

How many?

[ His heart isn't completely dead! ]

[sicklysweet]

three.

[He loves them…]

[glassbell]

Oh! Can I know their names? Is it fun to walk them all?

[sicklysweet]

their names are echidna, typhon, and cerberus. walking them all at once is kind of a pain because cerberus is much smaller then the other two.

[glassbell]

[ Huh, those are definitely normal sounding dog names and not demons... ]

It's cute you named the smallest one Cerberus. Little guard dog.

[sicklysweet]

well, he’s the youngest of the three, even if he’s not their puppy.

in greek myth, cerberus is the offspring of typhon and echidna. that’s all

[glassbell]

Oh I didn't know that. The Greek monster theming is a little ominous, but it probably doesn't matter much if you love them and they love you.

[sicklysweet]

they're just names. my dogs aren't ACTUALLY monsters

[Allegedly.]

they're dogs. they'll love anything.

[glassbell]

[[ ooc: just got back ftom vacation, apologies for the lateness! ]]

They're creative for dog names anyway. And it makes them loving you kind of cute, even if it's easy for dogs to love someone.

[sicklysweet]

((no problem!! welcome back!))

it's not cute! like you said, it's easy for dogs to love someone. they're just dogs, so it's not like they really care.

[glassbell]

I think there's another fun word for this.

[sicklysweet]

i have no idea what you’re talking about

[glassbell]

That's fine. Explaining it is kind of dull... and Japanese has a lot of funny words for things.

Somehow, you killed yaoi with realism.

[ Like people who downplay love when Furin's suspecting the dogs' love means a lot to him. Or at least, he's hoping.]
