Brawler of the Fortnight

[bob_the_trout]

For reasons that must remain undisclosed, Brawler of the Week is now Brawler of the Fortnight. Anyway, moving on, today we're talking about Luna Lovegood. :)

• The black, winged horse in some of Luna's icons is called a thestral. They can only be seen by people who have witnessed someone's death. There is a whole herd that lives in the forest at

Sorry, what?

That's ludicrous. Take it down.

[bob_the_trout]

Why?

[gotyourlocket]

Because if you don't, people will see it.

[bob_the_trout]

The point is for people to see it, Regulus.

[gotyourlocket]

But...

But that's insulting. Why should I be punished for a little girl's absurd delusions?

[bob_the_trout]

Don't ask me that. I'm only sharing publicly accessible information.

[gotyourlocket]

Yes, and that's all well and fine so long as it isn't about me.

I'm only asking that you take down the one, the rest aren't my concern.

[bob_the_trout]

I'm sorry, but I don't play favorites. It is a strict policy of mine.

[gotyourlocket]

No doubt I'd not be on the list if you did, either.

But, really. Can't it be at least made smaller than the others, or given a strike through?

It's to the detriment of the community to leave it up as such, really. There is at least one actual angel around who might become offended by it, do you see?

[bob_the_trout]

I'm not taking it down, so stop asking.

[gotyourlocket]

What if you were to, say, change only one word in the sentence? That would be alright, surely?

[bob_the_trout]

You can suggest it, but I make no promises.

[gotyourlocket]

The word 'angel' could become the word 'harbinger' without affecting the meaning of the statement.

If you'll check a dictionary, you will find that the two terms are rather interchangeable.

[bob_the_trout]

After careful consideration... no. :)

[gotyourlocket]

Then I suppose I'll just have to provide this 'evidence' to the contrary.

Context and interpretation is everything.
