Thaaat is from something to do with Mithras. Right? I know it's pre-Christian...

[thesevenlights.livejournal.com]

The Mithraic Liturgy. You know your history. *oh, an approving smile*

[vitaedolce.livejournal.com]

Oh, right! I should really know it better, but um, I think I was annoyed after I read they didn't permit women to join Mithraism? I ought to reread this week, though.

Are you Pagan?

"I was raised... you would call it such, yes. I do not believe so much, now." He almost shrugs. You know how it goes, right? "You restrict yourself greatly, if you allow the injustices of the past to to sway the direction of your education, in the present."

"Fair enough! I'm not exactly a good Muslim girl anymore, myself. There are bigger and better things out there." ...because she was ever particularly observant. Yes. (No.) There is some enthusiastic nodding, at the last statement! "Totally; I was fifteen when I did--um, history, but I kinda outgrew the mad-on, I think. I had the same bias with the druids for a while, and I'm over it now. Plus, a refresher never hurts!"

"This is very true." ...ahaha. Oh, God. "That is an age at which it is less unusual to hold such feelings. If you have seen the error in them, you have grown from that, and should take pride in such." Thank you, Mr. Fortune Cookie.

The tinygirl in the eight inch glittery heels here is maybe three or four years older than fifteen, tops. This does not prevent her from acting as if she is so much more grown-up now.

She blinks, head tilted, and then grins, a bit. "I guess so! I'm more of a 'learn everything ever' type now, regardless of the origins. But I can't recite The Mithraic Liturgy from memory, that's impressive! What about it got your interest?"

[domina-mira.livejournal.com]

Which god?

[thesevenlights.livejournal.com]

The only one that matters.

[domina-mira.livejournal.com]

That's a hefty statement.

[thesevenlights.livejournal.com]

Very.

[domina-mira.livejournal.com]

I imagine that's why it's so often debated.


*'debated', yes*

[thesevenlights.livejournal.com]

*chuckles* You have a talent for understatement. *or outright inaccuracy. But he is a polite Huge Guy.*

[alloy-avenger.livejournal.com]

*cough* six words *cough*

He studies the big man.

"What's that got to do with you?"

[thesevenlights.livejournal.com]

The big man studies the cyborg back, calmly. "Everything, and nothing."

[alloy-avenger.livejournal.com]

Oh dear; not another looney.

As he speaks, he scans the lifeform before him. "Well, at least you understand the nothingness of your existance."

[thesevenlights.livejournal.com]

"But do you, of yours?"

[alloy-avenger.livejournal.com]

Hm. Just a little too perfectly human.

"I understand something. In the beginning, and in the end...we're just dust."

"I hope."

[thesevenlights.livejournal.com]

Maybe he's just lucky. Maybe he just has good genetics?

"Do you?" Do you understand, or do you hope? He leaves the question open.

*hums*

Naked, young, immensely MAAAAAARVELOUS--

--oh. Wrong god. Sorry, here I was getting all excited.

[thesevenlights.livejournal.com]

*a deep, rumbling chuckle* Only one of the three, I'm sorry.

[ifwebefriends.livejournal.com]

*tilts his head to the side and regards the man* You don't strike me as a Bowie fan. Danzig, maybe.

What god are we on about then, if not Baal? I'm sure I should know this one, but there's just so many deities floating about...

[thesevenlights.livejournal.com]

No, but I am still familiar.

*he smiles. or maybe smirks. He knows something you don't know...* That depends on who you ask.

[ifwebefriends.livejournal.com]

Get around, hmm?

Ah, but I'm asking you!

[thesevenlights.livejournal.com]

One could say.

So you are.
