When I lie in bed at night I fight straw men. Sometimes they turn out to be paper tigers.

Who would you invent, given the chance?

some kind of clinging lingering presence, like an evil shadow or something.

Have you read The Wizard Or Earthsea, jel?

― N. (nickdastoor), Saturday, 19 October 2002 14:51 (twenty-two years ago)

nope, is it good?

Very. And you've inadvertantly described the plot, Jel. ;-)

It's OK. Maybe you'd relate to it with your shadow thing. Meant 'of Earthsea' btw/obv.

My enemies are not fiends.

For about four seconds, I honestly thought jel had typed "clinging lingerie presence" and I was well, kind of dumbfounded.
