Hmm. I guess we're best used judiciously, then.

[sampiano.livejournal.com]

It could be useful for next time we want to get through a fence onto a locked beach though :)

Hmm, not quite as useful as the last one.

[darcydodo]

No, but if looks could kill... ;)

[tzeentch.livejournal.com]

Oh, ouch. I walked right into that one. :D

[emidala.livejournal.com]

this sounds like something that you and I could make heaps of money on. ;)

Hey, yeah. I wonder if it'd work against lightning? :)

[emidala.livejournal.com]

probably.

isn't it interesting how we are all transluscent powders?

[darcydodo]

And isn't it interesting how I produce a violent chemical reaction with everyone I'm mixed with?

[sampiano.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but we all knew that anyway :)

[rysmiel.livejournal.com]

You and I, it would appear, provide protection from death. Let us use this power wisely, and only in the service of good.

[rysmiel.livejournal.com]

Fiddling with this, the only way I can duplicate that result is by mixing you with yourself. Does this mean I should... adopt you or something ?

[darcydodo]

The trick, evidently, is that we're both translucent, fine maroon powders. I don't know about the adoption bit, but it probably means that we shouldn't have kids; they'd end up clones, or something.

Protection from death is v. cool.

[rysmiel.livejournal.com]

it probably means that we shouldn't have kids; they'd end up clones, or something.

Curiously enough, that fits rather neatly with the life plans I currently have anyway.

'cause everyone else was doing it...;)

Yay. I still think that's possibly the coolest.

Yet another fun meme brought to you by rfreebern

what's a golem? Instantaneous healing is good :)

[darcydodo]

Instantaneous healing is very good. That's so cool.

A golem is an animated statue of a man, in short. I think it's originally from Jewish legend, but it comes up other places these days. The Jewish one had a word placed in its mouth, IIRC. (livredor or someone can correct me if I'm wrong.)

The OED says: "In Jewish legend, a human figure made of clay, etc., and supernaturally brought to life; in extended use, an automaton, a robot." The etc. is bronze or other materials, I think. :)

[pseudomonas.livejournal.com]

In the original legend, set in Prague, it's *just* clay. It wouldn't have a heart, I think.

cool!

ahh, thank you! Yet another example of just how sheltered my education has been so far.

What's a Tum-Tum tree? It's making me think of the Jumblies, but I'm not sure if that's the right connection... Anyway, yet another "violent" reaction :D

[pseudomonas.livejournal.com]

The Tum-Tum tree is from Jabberwocky. darcydodo once came to a Lewis Carroll fancy dress party dressed as a Tum-Tum tree.

[darcydodo]

*cries* You've never heard of the Tum-Tum tree?

He took his vorpal sword in hand,
Long time the manxome foe he sought,
Then rested he by the Tum-Tum tree
And stood a while in thought.

As pseudomonas said, I came to his Alice in Wonderland tea party dressed as the Tum-Tum tree, because I'd played the Tum-Tum tree in a dramatic rendition of the Jabberwocky when I was about four or five. I had hand-shaped leaves.
