I didn't use to sound like popcorn--whoops. >.>

We may have passed 'popcorn' and arrived at 'small-grade firecracker'. >.>;

D: D: D:

[taennyn]

My wrist popped instead of just crackling. That's always a little startling.

She may have flinched and gone AAAH!

I may have tried not to laugh at the aaaaah. >.>

*stern look*

[billradish.livejournal.com]

This would be what I'd been talking about, on chat.

[taennyn]

I was crackling! My arm just DOES this!

And then it went POP.

And she went AAAH.

*big sparkly eyes?*

[sarahdarkes.livejournal.com]

She does it on purpose, I swear!!! She has turned her joints into psychological weaponry!!!

[dormouse-in-tea.livejournal.com]

This I would not put past her.

On the other hand, given that she doesn't actually WANT the ability to sound like popcorn, can we blame her for deriving what cold comfort from it that she can?

(Note to Tae: when you start cackling, WE TOTES CAN.)

[taennyn]

Hey now, I am pure in motive and sweet in countenance!

(Oh, speaking of things that made me cackle evilly: Winona Kirk dubs Spock her Tiny Science-bitch)

[dormouse-in-tea.livejournal.com]

This would, by the way, count as provoking.

....I just wanted to tell you that that link made my morning. BWAH!

[billradish.livejournal.com]

(Note to Tae: when you start cackling, WE TOTES CAN.)

This requires her to stop cackling. We might want to revise this to "at any point when you start cackling OR while you are still cackling"

[taennyn]

I mostly only actively cackle in the privacy of my own head? >.>

[sarahdarkes.livejournal.com]

I know. My sister's used to do the same thing after she'd been practicing for too long. It's just....when my body does that, it's usually accompanied by "Ow. Okay, cannot walk nao."

(I am very accident-prone. My bruises are impressive. )

[taennyn]

...... Aaaand we have another new status option!

\o/?

[dormouse-in-tea.livejournal.com]

so get online so I can sees you use it sometime. <3 (tonight not mandated)

Tae, making noises that will inspire half the room to throw themselves on that grenade to save the rest is a Bad Plan. No hat for you!

[taennyn]

*considers* Surely there is some way to turn this into a Hat Plan.

[billradish.livejournal.com]

You can leave your hat on?

[dormouse-in-tea.livejournal.com]

Pretty much only by making someone ELSE'S joints make that noise instead.


("No! Not eat OWN FINGERS! NOT LO-GI-CAL! Eat someone ELSE'S!"_

I think that would have to be shoulder or hip. Thankfully, she hasn't had significant issues in either of those places, yet.

[taennyn]

Nah, just very persistent annoyances.

[sarahdarkes.livejournal.com]

....in this particular circumstance, given that she herself is the grenade, this would get Interesting.

(cue mental image of dogpile of self-sacrificing people with Tae and Tae's "waugh!face" at the bottom)

... *!!!*

NEST.

As the platform for said, yes, I would like to preemptively veto this course of action.....
