[Ryuunosuke is not smiling for once. He seems to be laying back in his bed with a gloomy expression.]Hey, Prospero. I'm bored, so you get to hear me talk about stuff that isn't important. Sound good ( Read more... )

Hmm... playing around with the metaphor s'more, wouldn't the people you mentioned be more like a hawk or a falcon than a swan? I've never seen a swan outside of still images, but I can't imagine they're all that dangerous.

No, I've seen swans in person more than once. Swans can be scary and dangerous, for birds.

[So much disbelief. SO. MUCH.] What? Get outta here. They don't even have talons, I thought. Heck, they didn't even look all that suited for flight.

Swans are incredibly aggressive. They don't have talons, but their bite is nasty and they can and will drown whatever they're attacking.

Wow. Unless you're pulling my leg here, I think I'll give you metaphor-superiority. That's pretty nasty for such an unassuming bird.

Actually, was that supposed to be a stealthy insult? I mean, swans are pretty and all, but that makes them seem pretty rude, all things considered...

[Video] kindofademon September 7 2011, 17:56:55 UTC

Nope, not an insult. One of those people killed me, I'm allowed to call them 'aggressive' in figurative language.

[She's quiet for a few moments, staring blankly at Ryuunosuke through the screen before speaking. If Katio was to be believed - and there was no reason not to believe him other than the obvious - death wasn't a big deal here. Other than that, there was the chance he was referring to something outside of Prospero.]

[Still. Hearing it mentioned so glibly...]

I'll just take that statement at face value. Kinda surprised you don't sound bitter about it though.

[Video] kindofademon September 7 2011, 18:10:15 UTC

I don't hold grudges very well.

[And he likes death, his or anyone else's.]

[Video] skaldssong September 7 2011, 18:19:17 UTC

Well, that's a pretty good way to go about things. If you don't hold a grudge from that of all things, you must be some kinda - what was the word again... - saint, or something.

[Video] kindofademon September 7 2011, 18:21:23 UTC

[A burst of laughter. He is really really not.] No way. That's kind of ridiculous.

[Video] skaldssong September 7 2011, 18:36:20 UTC

[Laughter, being infectious, causes her to chuckle a bit in response.] Hey, it's just a figure of speech. Or maybe just another metaphor.

[Video] kindofademon September 7 2011, 18:37:24 UTC

It's a really silly metaphor, is what it is.

[Video] skaldssong September 7 2011, 18:52:28 UTC

All metaphors are kinda silly when you think about 'em. That's what makes them so fun to create though.

[Video] kindofademon September 7 2011, 18:53:59 UTC

If we'd compared me to the pope, I could have pictured myself in a fancy hat. Do saints ever get fancy hats?

[Video] - Wherein the conversation begins to look vaguely like Team Fortress 2... skaldssong September 7 2011, 20:38:09 UTC

Oho. We're more apt to accept the silly metaphor if we can net a glamorous hat in the process, are we? Though realistically, I think your hat status is determined by you and only you.

[Video] Hehehe. kindofademon September 7 2011, 20:40:00 UTC

I'm a guy of simple tastes, and one of them is having a nice hat. So you mean that it doesn't matter what the hat is if I wear it like it's cool?
