According to an article by Charles Q. Choi in the August 2009 issue of Scientific American magazine, the plant Water Celery(Oenanthe crocata) contains a toxin that forces a human's facial muscles to contract into a rictus. A potion using this plan was used in ancient Sardinia by Phoenician colonists to put a smile on the face of people condemned to death.

Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

Once we were slaves in Egypt but now we are free. May we, who once cried out to G-d for freedom, listen to those who cry out still. May we remember the enslaved, the down-trodden, and the desperate at this time of rejoicing.

A sestina is a 12th century poetic form involving an extremely structured pattern of repetition. Sometimes they are written in iambic pentameter, but I am not that awesome. Here is my first attempt.

This is the way the world ends.
This is the way the world ends.
This is the way the world ends,
Not with a bang, but with a whimper.

You know the drill, people. I commented on [info]quiet_tiger</lj> 's five things, so she or he gave me this list of five. If you comment on this list and request it, I will give you a list of five things that I associate with you, which you can then elaborate on in your journal.

My List )

I will take the next five drabble requests. If you would like a drabble from me, please comment on this post with characters or a pairing and a prompt. [info]quiet_tiger and [info]museofspeed [info]each missed the last prompt drive, so they get extra space in this one even if they are not among the first five. Because I get to be arbitrarily generous like that.
So I will be taking between five and seven prompts, should you fine people be kind enough to leave me that many.

Thanks for playing with me!

This journal contains slash. Several stories found here include romantic relationships between characters of the same gender. If this bothers you, please spare us both some aggravation and turn back now.

Does anyone remember the game we started? A bat-verse livejournal role play? Well [info]aiyokusama did her part. She posted the first entry here and then it was my turn, and I flubbed it terribly. RL hit me over the head with a (only slightly padded, but completely metaphorical) brick, and this thing sat in my word processor for weeks and weeks. It's short and it's late and I'm sorry.

Well, I'm not surprised
