She's Too Nurturing, They Said

♚ in your picnic baskets

Tue, 13 Oct 2009 22:28:03 GMT

Hear ye, hear ye, citizens, and all hail to the noble and gawky young Tristan Thorn, champion of the kingdom and receiver of the Agaricus Revivere.

My condolences to those less successful in their hunts, and my thanks for the fervor put in to stopping the annoying little child~ I'll medicate him, now, don't you worry.

That being said.

You may now all resume being allowed to finish.

[ooc; The conclusion of the success that was the ~~horrifically geeky mocking of Kanye West~~... YO, CITY curse. Any persons passing by or through the deity office today will find Sabine sitting on a large sound-proofed cage which contains the bear, with a picnic basket beside her. People skilled at lip reading will note the bear is still mouthing "THE BEST EVER".]

♚ mea culpa, mea culpa, mea máxima culpa

Crimes and punishment go hand in hand, this has always been so, even if some avoid punishment for a time. But death is a punishment, and so punishment comes to all in time.

We can rehabilitate you.

It's what they say.

Justice is not blind. It is merely ugly.

I appointed a rather wise choice to the parole board.

We forgive those who repent, you need only beg forgiveness, from the heart.

Rats drown with the ship.

... There are so very many ways to say it.

But I promise, the innocent remain untouched. And the dirty shall be made innocent once more. One must water and clean before planting.

[ooc; deity, up in yer plotz- feel free to question her, rage at her, beg for freedom, threaten, etc, etc~]

♚ step on a nail, put your father in jail, step on a crack--

The toll of midnight strikes an end. Always ending. Always beginning.

Tonight, let it be the end of maternity.

Dues undue, returned. Lowers, chastised. Highers, reaffirmed. Hierarchy. Cursus Honorum?

I have always fancied motherhood.

You all as my children. My seeds- grow up, learn, mature, prosper, and die. The circle of life, and death, as one. And I, a mother.

There is nothing more humbling than the true love of mother for offspring.

Mother, Father, Son and Daughter, Mother's Brother and Father's Sister, the one who birthed the one who birthed the one who birthed you, all tied together by such a simple thing as

Blood, for the tie.

Tears, for the emotion.

Sugar, for the symbol.

Beer, for the celebration.

Only seemed right, to add the hair. For genetic. DNA. Seemed right, no. Fits?

Nothing more touching than the love of mother for child. ~~Nothing more damning than the loss-~~

Spare the whip, spoil the child?

The sting of it reminds, that it may be forthcoming once more.

♚ a spoonful of sugar

Madame Mouse is more fortunate than I, that she is given a decree more easier sung than spoken for her lot.

Where there is sugar, there is bound to be ants,

No.

Rebuke should have a grain more of salt than sugar,

No.

Even sugar itself may spoil a good dish.

No.

How unfortunate I am, to have to say this in plain words. Perhaps we may go with thine neighbor.

Go forth, and you may prefer to do this sober, and find thine neighbor. The one that you loathe with every fiber in your being, the one with whom you have been at odds with, the one you call enemy.

Borrow a cup of sugar. ♥

♚ warden elections

Mon, 08 Dec 2008 19:54:35 GMT

Again, the time comes.

One of the many things we grant you, these opportunities to grow, to mature, to organize and strive.

So struggle, citizens. Struggle past this curse that tries you, the hurdles we set for you, and own yourself, do not be owned.

Seize power. Make choice.

Cast your vote.

View Poll: Warden Election

[ooc; This poll will be open for twenty-four hours, until late Tuesday, December 9, 2008. As always, please vote for characters ICly. No attempts at rigging the system beyond IC threats, bribes, etc. We check for ooc journals, since this is supposed to be an ic vote. Everyone play nice and have fun!]

♚ in sickness and in health

The Professor has spoken.

Those who doubt will doubt, of course. You may lead a horse to water, you may not make it drink. ~~Oh, there are ways.~~

It is the way of parents to love their children. Though through this love, the most reprehensible of crimes and feelings can be born, and born through love, they are the most hideous of all. Because of love, we kill, because of love, we hate, and because of love, we wither.

Through love, we test you. We bring about circumstance that lead you to question yourself, but through this, you begin to truly know yourself.

Through love, we test you. We bring about the thoughts that you never wish to hear, because through this, you can realize the things you hide from even yourself.

Through love, we test you. We push you, to your very limits, because we truly believe that within every one you is someone who is strong who can truly surive.

In our right hand, we bear pain, and in the left, caduceus.

By our right hand, we may punish you, though it is no more punishment than pushing one's children to succeed.

By our left hand, we may save you. To spurn our salvation... that can only be the action taken by a child in tantrum, by a child who defies their parents simply because they wish to defy.

אלהיך נתן לך׃כבד את אביך ואת אמך למען יארכון ימיך על האדמה אשר יהוה

A being some call God said there should be light, and so, light came to mortal beings.

Do mortal beings rejoice in this light? Do lesser creatures bask in this gift, or do they view it as their right? Does nurturing the child spoil them for life? Will they appreciate what was sacrificed for their sakes, or do they see only their momentary pains, without looking towards their future gains?

Again, questions for wiser rulers than I.

Those above me, who have those above them, who have those above them, have deigned to see I return to you so soon for you and so long ago for I. And so, like god on high, I descend amongst my betters, my Madame, my Professor, my Mastress, and my Mouse, and still above my lesser. We are gods, because anyone can play god, and we are those playing, and you are playing along.

I have been reborn. Remade for the better.

I have seen a different side of things.

I have seen truth.

Haec olim meminisse iuvabit.

THE BEST HALLOWEEN EVER~!

Don't you all think, babies~? ♥

A party, an impromptu little magic for the night, and I took the crown~! I did deserve it, didn't I?~

It took a lot of work to convince those pumpkins to grow like that, too!

Now, everyone behave while I'm gone, okay? Don't give Madame Virginia, Professor Laszlo, Mastress Lenny, or Missy Mouse any trouble! ♥

I'll come back for you, soon!

[ooc; Drawn by the lovely, Caru~! The Pumpkin Queen. You could have found her at any of the festivities tonight, so, if anyone wants to comment log with her, or network thread, anything is fine. (Sorry this is so late, you know the deal, Halloween party, etc~). Hope everyone had a good night! Sabine will be leaving for her promotion after this, so when she comes back... surprise!]

The things people say in private~ ♥

You really didn't have to go to all the trouble of trying to be secretive, you know, seedling. I'd have answered any of your questions I could anyway. It's sort of cute, though, I suppose~

I'm so happy everyone had fun playing with the dancing! That was much less violent and nasty, right, babies?~

Oh- Oh-

You're all in for a surprise! I won't spoil it, but, I hope you enjoy me being your queen for a day! ♥ I do so love playing with you all in person!

Tender, loving, care!

Aww, just like for my babies~

Now it's over, you know. Saying what you think.

I want to love you. I want to hate you. I want to live. I want to die. I want you to listen to me. I want you to go die. I secretly want this. I secretly want that.

But I didn't see a lot of I want to go home.

That makes me so happy, darlings. I'm so happy you're so happy here. I'm so happy you don't care about that clock tick-tock-ticking away beneath your feet to the end of the world.

And that's the truth.
