    Emo Kylo Ren is a mock account that was created by one of the women from Gawker. Its pretty amazing, and has estalished the pefect baseline for if flirting has gone wrong.... did I really talk about sand?

    "do you like galaxies
    so it turns out i kind of have one if you want to rule it with me or whatever
    it wouldn’t have to be a date"

    "Ah, Harry, how often this happens, even between the greatest of friends! Each of believes that what he has to say is much more important than anything the other might have to contribute."
    --- "The Half Blood Prince"

    So, for obvious reasons I'm not Rowlings biggest fan, but this particular quote is something I keep in mind when there is conflict because many of us are friends or at least should be.
    The last temptation is the greatest treason:
    To do the right deed for the wrong reason.

    This is one of my favorite Tolkien quotes. I always think about it when ever someone calls my favorite fandom into question.

    "Some who have read the book, or at any rate have reviewed it, have found it boring, absurd, or contemptible; and I have no cause to complain, since I have similar opinions of their works, or of the kinds of writing that they evidently prefer."
    I was reminded of this at Anni. I only have two shawls but they are on prominent display and I never hesitate to explain their meaning should a guest ask.

    "One of the first things they taught us at the academy was that symbols matter. Uniforms, flags, banners, even mascots. They're like pieces of your heart you can look at." --- Karl Agathon, "Battlestar Galactica"

    I understand that feeling. I don't display mine, because it has silk in it, but I always show it off whenever I get the chance. I'm proud of it, and proud of what it represents. :green1: :gray1:

    I have 4, one is displayed (a gray one) my two red ajah ones aren't, but maybe I should find a way to display one. I love this!

    They surely can. Only sometimes the dragon rage quits and drops a mountain on you. Dragons cheat.

    Thanks, Alexr. I had a great time at Anni and it was wonderful to meet everyone in person. I always had a barrier interacting because I only knew a handfull of people before now. Anni sort of woke me up and I am glad for it.
