No one has attempted to bribe me, either.
Perhaps they know we're far too principled to respond to such things. *clears throat* Though I suppose, it... wouldn't be wrong to just maybe have a look and see what bribes would be offered if I was one to be bribed. Which I'm not, of course. *cough*

I only offer things to those who are willing to be bribed.
Although there's an old dream I suppose I haven't told phantom about yet...

But that's actually true, now that I think about it, I am genuinely puzzled. I understand I even sort of dismissed the possibility of bribing me, but how comes nobody tried to bribe the phantom? Granted, it is like trying to bribe Robespierre, only... never mind.

How boring. But hey, at least something happens.

Yay! Great game.
Can't remember it's ever been so nerve-wracking before.

It shows how well we know one another (or how well trained we are?), that when Maria says "dream" I immediately experience a shift in hormone levels....
And yes, the incorruptible indeed. For I am far more likely to be the corrupter.

No I'm going to go and actually read what the lot of you were talking about for three pages...

Hahaha, was it three pages?
I particularly recommend page 10. It's highly interesting, there's so much happening.

Kristen Stewart, sewing, and Phantom giving me money. No, really.

You guys are ridiculous. This is worse than the last 5 minutes of a werewolf game with only a quarter of the votes in.
I think that what you've posted in the last 24 hours is almost as long as the voting done prior. Absolutely ridiculous.

Seriously, I am very sorry for making you traumatised by that image, sally. Though it was really the phantom who first mentioned Kristen Stewart. Quote:
I think the worst was happening only during the last, what, seven hours or so. That's about as much as I've been around.

The phantom is always right, so pointless to argue.

And of course I already knew Sally was thinking of ways to punish me... Very predictable lot, you are.

The Kristen Steward idea is interesting given Thuringwethil's possible association with Lśthien. Just sayin'.
Edit: I'm aware of the typo, but it maxes my Tolkien geek credentials, right?

No! Because now I can scare Sally further by the image of an old, ugly, bat-winged actress with long fingernails eating cherry tomatoes in an utterly disgusting way...

*shudder*
Seriously, I think I'm scarred for life. And scared for life. Make the birds go away!! (I was thinking Thuringwethil was something more like this. But perhaps able to shift into something more attractive when in non-flight non-attack mode.)

Can't see the resemblance. It's just because she's blond.
Anyway I like Vasnetsov a lot, but I must admit my image of Thuringwethil is closer to phantom's.

Nope, it's the face. The mouth, the eyes plus eyebrows, the expression. Only she should have different nose. But otherwise, the first impression is totally you.
