what is the most beautiful thing you have read in a fanfic?
That's a hard one to pin down, it really is. There's three or four fics that spring to mind all at once, specific moments that stood out and really hit hard. They all seem to share a common aspect of emotion lightyears beyond sexual attraction, of accepting something incredibly difficult in order to hold the relationship together or making a massive sacrifice for each other. Things that go deeper into the difficulty.

Do you have any plan for how you'll deal with Imp wanting a facebook/livejournal/etc account when she's old enough?
We're talking about it quite a bit. She already has accounts on some of the kid oriented sites like Webkinz, and if she moves on to wanting a FB or what have you, she understands that we will be closely monitoring it, and why. We don't hold back on showing her all the things Internet predators can do; I'm not sure anything can prepare her for incidents of anon bullying as occurred recently other than showing it to her, and explaining how horrible people can be when they think they're hiding behind an anonymous shield of cowardice. We are also showing her how to cope with those; how an "anon" can give themselves away in a multitude of fashions, a little bit CSI if you will, and how to address just how vile people can be to one another when they think it doesn't matter.

Do you swear a lot when you speak?
It depends on the company present. If I'm around people for whom it would be either prudent or respectful (or both) to be as couth as possible toward, so I am.
Outside of that? Again, it depends, but I can tend towards cursing like a drunken sailor if I'm in certain moods or amongst friends who're doing the same.
Oddly enough, you can tell I'm on the edge of absolute rage when I'm speaking in an incredibly clipped tone but not swearing at -all-...

One naked night with Gustav or Georg? Who do you choose?
Well... all you said is naked, which could imply anything from skinnydipping to sauna to dancing like lunatics around a bonfire, (all things I've done naked at night) and might have nothing to do with anything else at all...
..or did you mean to imply something more might go on? Because the answers are different when I know the real question...

Since I can't figure out your twitter question - which Tea Party song would you like to hear TH do?
I don't honestly know if they could. Jeff Martin's a baritone. It'd be a hell of a key change to make any of their stuff work with Bill's voice.
I could see them being attracted to "Empty Glass" simply because it's a Bowie tribute... if you knocked that one up an octave or so they could probably carry it off.
If TH were going to cover an Afi song, which one would you want to hear? What if you could have two, or five?
Oh god.
See, it'd depend how many pair of clean shorts I had available...
End Transmission. Hnghhhhhffgghhhh....
The Interview. I think I'd cry.
Wester.
Morningstar.
This Celluloid Dream.
Um, do I have to stop here?
Cos if I get to reverse the question, I'd give my left nut to hear AFI cover just about any TH. Jade's remix doesn't count.
I could hear Havok doing RSG pretty well, but good goddamn can you picture him singing Humanoid? Or the bass treatment Hunter could give that track? GNUH.

Ok, better question - is there an Afi song you think TH couldn't do well?
Oh of course. I don't see Bill EVER being able to do much of the vocal style straight up to Black Sails, though he could probably do the REALLY early stuff (Rolling Balls anyone? Bwahah).
And just in general, Tom is not up to snuff as a guitarist to be able to do any of Jade's solo work -- they'd have to use electronic fill or something.
Anything Havok really screams on.... no.
I mean, can you hear him trying to do Kill Caustic or Death of Seasons, or Affliction? Please.
Kid just doesn't have it in him yet. And frankly if he's as prone to vocal cord injury as he seems, needing surgery so early on, he shouldn't ever try. At least not without a LOT of training.
