Lives on Trains - 7

"...And that's why I'm so happy, and they're not."
"Because you....suck the joy out from their souls..."
"Yep"
"And you can do that because you're really a....god?"
"No less."
"A god."
"Had it the first time."
"A train god."
"Nail. Head."
"And you hate everyone who travels by trains because they use them?"
"You really are good at this!"
"Ahh.
Right.
.....so why are you telling me this?"
"Weeeeeell, anybody who reads Winnie-the-Pooh can't be all that bad".

the bride:
thankee, thankee.

Thankee! And why lurking? Must not lurk. Must comment. Commenting good. Commenting healthy. Lurking bad. Will comment more now, yes?

bride/brinda:
Modified it slightly though. Do you still love it?

four comments on one post. i might be overdoing it just a tad, you think? one does not want to be thought of as being er... forward or anything...

brinda:
Being forward is so much better than being backward. Unless you're running into a wall full of spikes, that is (we're big on random imagery).
