Daemonology

a la Philip Pullman and the "Golden Compass" movie website, via [livejournal.com profile] gregmce:



(I liked the first two books of Pullman's trilogy a great deal, but the third one seemed to miss a left turn from Albuquerque or something; Mrs. Coulter's supernaturally omnipotent powers of seduction were especially doubtful to me. The clips of movie footage I've seen so far have been much more effects-intensive than I'd expected, perhaps because Pullman's focus wasn't so much on the glossy steampunk technological setting as on the sociology of power and the nature of faith/betrayal.)

Crap. You would have to turn out to be a spider, wouldn't you?

It's changeable depending on other people's feedback. I've been watching someone else's hop around crow/spider/ladybug forms, among other stuff.

Ah. That explains how I was able to change you into a bird.

Hey, wait a minute--you've changed into me. Stop that.
