Necronomicon

*tries desperately to find a practical use for Ravenmooncow.

1. Use it as a club to beat up the people who read the crap, and take it serriously.

2. Emergancy toilet Paper (make sure you crumble it up REALLY good though)

3. Erase key words and turn it into a "Fluffy Bunny Mad Libs" book.

4. Cut out the center of each page, and turn the book into a decrotive case for other, more important volumes of literature (like "TV Guide")

5. Back-up flyswatter; them books are THICK.

6. Arts and crafts mat; when their are two many exacto knife marks and paint stains, just peal off pages until you have a fresh surface.

That's all I can think of right now.

As for the Necronomicron, I had always thought that book was a bunch of rubbish. I don't really think that, if there was a book of untold hellishness and damination, they'd sell it at the mall.

Then again, said shopping malls also caried DVDs of "Glitter" and "Super Mario Bros: The Movie"...so...maybe...just maybe... eek

Involves too much contact.
Osmosis is a risk.

Kuroiban

2. Emergancy toilet Paper (make sure you crumble it up REALLY good though)

Definitely not.
That could be construed as improving the content of her books and, thereby, encouraging the fluffy movement.

Kuroiban

3. Erase key words and turn it into a "Fluffy Bunny Mad Libs" book.

That is a good use.

We come back to the osmosis thing here. I don't want my television spouting this nonsense.

Kuroiban

5. Back-up flyswatter; them books are THICK.

That would be the same as the toilet paper thing.

Kuroiban

6. Arts and crafts mat; when their are two many exacto knife marks and paint stains, just peal off pages until you have a fresh surface.

Again with the osmosis.
Art with ravenwolf influences *shudder*

I'm not worried about SRW having the power of osmosis...

That would be like her actually being like...capable of the supernatural...

I serriously doubt that...

Since when is osmosis supernatural? ninja

Final Fantasy 6.
Duh.

If you're a frog in water, I suppose it isn't. The idea that the concepts and ideas from one of her books could seep into you and cause a possession of sorts, however, is a bit different. For some reason I'm just not willing to give Silver RavenLlamaKittenWarthogBansheeKlingonWolf that sort of credit.

Final Fantasy 6.
Duh.

You sir, are impressive in your knowledge.
Though I believe the spell you are refuring to was actually Osmose if memory serves.  

[TeaDidikai]

Bok can be transferred through osmosis. Why not stupidity?

Pardon my ignorence, but what the heck is Bok?

And I'm smart, clever, funny, good looking (apparantly), talented and humble too.

It is indeed, however, that's down to dodgy translation.  

[StrawberryGumiho]

... I think... If I recall correctly...
Doesnt FF 8 have an "Osmosis"? I think it had to do with the 'training' the summons... Been a long time since I've played it. I might be mistaken.

As for the Necronomicon... Great lovecraft fan paraphanelia.

Cultural concept. The best way I could try and translate it outside of my faith would be something akin to "the good-luck part of one's soul". But even that fails. sweatdrop

~shakes head~ Nope.

Closer to an intragraded concept of the Slavic Dola.

Until Actu finds out how to download my brain, afraid not.

The concept of bok is an overarching cultural understanding of "luck". Some aspects of it resonate with the Norse flygia (am I spelling that correctly Deo?) and the Slavic Dola- but at the same time, Bok is more than that (as there are spirits known as Ursitory that are closer to the concept of the Dola), but one could almost consider Ursitory to be agents or avatars, or even thought forms created by Bok to act upon individuals of a specific god.


Perhaps one might liken it to the Norse Wyrd?
