This so has "series" potential

I'm on the fence about whether or not that's going to happen.

"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

If Luna was a furry, she'd sex humans and scream "BEASTIALITY!" at the top of her lungs at inopportune times.

I like the Luna one. She is a good one.

I always liked Terry Pratchett's version, of a "princess who was so noble she could pee through a dozen mattresses", but this one is to my tastes as well.

Side note, if you have not found Neil Gaiman's version of Snow White (short story titled Snow, Glass, Apples), find it.  (It's in his collection Smoke and Mirrors.)

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

Some yahoo yelled at me, saying 'GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH', and I thought, "I'm feeling generous today.  Why not BOTH?"

I've always thought that real genius consists of shining the light on something that, once seen, seems natural, logical, and obvious by the way the discoverer/inventor/writer shows it. This piece completely exemplifies that. I mean, it just... makes sense. Horrific, terrible sense that somehow no one ever thought of before.

Thanks.

In 400 years or so, I'll be nitpicking modern authors.   :lulz:
