I thought that all of you lot were fictional! (Except mrs. SkidMarks, of course.)

Are you trying to tell me that some of you are real?

You really think only fictional women can have a strong will?
I can tell you from personal experience that this is not the case. :)
Besides, I donīt think Thurs would date any other man than Landen, or at least not really love him.

But there ARE times when I wish I were fictional! ^^

youve go a point as far as the land thing.

but it be fun to at leats try to get her to go out with me.

just like mary and arnold.

and i know many real women that are strong willed.my mother for instance.

what about mary mary?she seems nice and available.the ashley thing doesnt seem final so she might be open to it.

comments?

Hang on... Thursday is real. Why would being fictional help me get a date with her?

Although I have to admit the whole stalking thing doesn't seem to be working... maybe I *should* try moving into fiction...

I did say that I want a T-Shirt with 'Person of Dubious Reality' on it, at a reading last year. And I would wear it out in the 'Real' World.

I don't wish I was fictional, but I wish I could mingle with fictional characters.

Literary ones as well as those from smutty cartoons.

I'll be fictional.
Do you know any books that need a panda?
Maybe I'll keep after Mrs. Bradshaw and not mention it...

I, too, would love to have a "Person of Dubious Reality" shirt. I think Ashley is wonderful, though probably not the one for me as the literalism of his race would make me crazy after just a short time. I'd be more likely to go for a Mr. Rochester or a Fitzwilliam Darcy.

Cheers,
