Singing Demon, singing demon! Parting is such sweet sorrow
I'll sing the blues until it be tomorrow.

Really? <-- That was me being all sarcastic girl.

I just meant demons and humans are different species so I never really thought about the possibility of demons and humans having kids.

[singindemonhq.livejournal.com]

Heh, who told you that, girl? Some folks sing that humans can interbreed with just about anything - there's been half elven, half demon, half orc, all sorts!

Some biologists used to claim that if creatures can interbreed then they ain't no different species! That gave us all somthing to think about! Some of the things humans do can get the nervous types looking real thoughtful.

Huh. I mean sure you read about changlings that are half-fairy and half-human but that's fairy tales.

Okay, first I find out that Hansel and Gretel are really demons, then the Easter Bunny and don't even get me started on the Santa myth. Now, I'm finding out that changlings and other half-human half-whatevers are real.

Oh c'mon. You mean you never wondered how some of your neighbors got to be like that?

[trueslayer.livejournal.com]

I was thinking aliens. No offense to the Doctor who is an alien and nice.

[singindemonhq.livejournal.com]

Ain't that about the same thing? Dimensional travellers, aliens, mythical beings, forieners, to humans ain't they all really just creatures from someplace else?

[trueslayer.livejournal.com]

Well when you put it that way, they are.

Did you ever hear the theory that links war with available transport? It looks so obvious that someone else must have thought of it noticed the pattern.

First you get the villages saying "this bit is ours" and telling horror stories about the village down the road and fighting the village over the hill. The ones they can just about get at by a few days journey in good weather.

Then they invent the wheel or domesticate the horse or something and they get kingdoms about the size of two good pastures, the village over the hill gets turned into neighbours and they start fighting the ones that are a few days journey away by horse.

Then they get coaches, the kingdoms get bigger and they start trying to fight the strangers that they can only reach by a few days journey by boat. The French and English kept it up for centuries. The Romans went everywhere, way back, but there's mostly that critical time and distance.

It's gone sour on you, now. If you'd found Martians you'd have a world government and a whole new war...

Hey! Have you read the Dr.Seuss book about sneaches?

[singindemonhq.livejournal.com]

I hadn't, I guess it was after my time,
Google gave me a summary but it don't rhyme.
It's the opposite to the best cure for Gorfsnibbless
(a galuphing beast as prolific as tribbles.)

[ooc: *dies laughing*]

Gorfsnibbless? I haven't heard of those.

[singindemonhq.livejournal.com]

They ain't so common, now. When they get the blues they don't breed, locally, but I hear they're making life interesting in one of Vraith dimensions...

Incidently, I seem to discovered the identy of the Santa Claws demons.

[trueslayer.livejournal.com]

Does this mean a trip to Iceland? Because I am so there. They have pretty sweaters.

[watcher-diaries.livejournal.com]

I rather doubt whether most of the creatures there are within our remit, they seem quite peacable.

On the other hand, there may be some justification for taking out the Santa-Claws demons. They tend to feed annually - or at least to feast, the wording is difficult. Possibly an expedition might be safest in summer.

[trueslayer.livejournal.com]

I'd leave the fairies and gnomes alone unless they were evil. Are gnomes evil? I think the little Travelocity one is.

Hey, I'm all for going to Iceland in the summer.

Are those around again? They're hard to kill, even with bait.

Is there a bounty?
