Since the Song of Life is Superior-restricted, I'd figure that a Superior can do anything it wants.

Asexual at best. They only appear to be in the form of one sex or another, because the majority of the human populace have a mental capacity quite similar to the dinasours they replaced. Unable to process the TRUE appearance, these monkeys delude themselves into believing, say, the Demon Princess of Nitpicking is female, because well... Should I say it? She's one scary bitch. *grin* The same could be said of Novalis. As the Earth-Goddess/Mother, she is more appealing to the delicate human psyche appearing as a female, than a male (Though the thought would be amusing, and akin to Aries as God of Love as seen in recent Flip-Side episodes of Hercules: The Legendary Journies). Now before you Servitors of Fire (either side) decide to get into this little ditty, just remember one thing. You're just a favored Servitor. She's a Demon -PRINCESS-.

Hence the quote. I also have a somewhat introspective piece written by the Ofanite, which I like: - ------------- OFANIM NIGHTS Where have you been spending your nights? We don't sleep. We dream, we don't sleep. We love, we don't sleep. Some of us wait, some of us rest. Not me. Late at night on the metro *getting* off one train and onto another *going* the opposite way and *staggering* through the doors between cars and sometimes *staring* intently out the windows at the concrete walls *rushing* by. In the All-Nite laundro-mat *watching* clothes that don't belong to me tumble in the dryer. At the arcade in front of a pinball machine *being* just a little envious of that little metal ball. At a nightclub on the *dance* floor, *always* on the *dance* floor never waiting at the bar, *spinning* round and round and round and round and nobody notices one more lunatic as long as they don't fall down. On the sidewalk, *walking* past the people, *walking* by the newsstands, *walking* through the traffic lights, *walking* to another nightclub before its doors are closed. There's a taxi at the corner when you're too drunk to drive. There's a bus going to the next town in the middle of the night. There's a trucker with a load of boxes of something that won't mind if you need a ride. Look, there I go. - ------------- ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 17 Feb 1999 18:41:50 -0500 From: Elizabeth McCoy Subject: Re: The Truth about Celestials (WAS Re: IN> [ADMIN] Spam and Posting Privilages) At 11:58 PM -0600 2/16/99, Shadowstar wrote: > Unable to process the TRUE appearance, these monkeys delude themselves >into believing, say, the Demon Princess of Nitpicking is female, because >well...
