"Milk"
Summary: Milk is a symbol of fertility, once thought of as the food of the gods and a nurturer, the lifeblood and lifeline that connects mother to child. And child to mother.

Reality is stranger than fiction, they say, and he was inclined to agree. Life was indeed filled with one oddity after another.
He remembers a story from his youth.
A story, that was ancient he was told, passed from the old to young about a Clan Leader of their own who had taken a human as a mate.
They had a child-who they called, the meaning of an end in the old language. Someone who should never have been-
An abomination-
The child was cursed. And because of it, she cursed the land. Cursed her clan that lamented her existence, cursed the humans who condemned her, and cursed her parents who had birthed her into a world that knew only hate and fear.
They called her- Hillevi.
Goliath never took the story seriously; he knew the ploy by then. The line drawn in the sand, humans stayed on one side and they stayed on the other, they were never supposed to cross it.
Well, he had never been one for superstitions.

Can you imagine the type of trainwreck things would be if Demona raised Angela. Poor girl would be in therapy for the rest of her life.
I can't stop thinking about Fox and Elisa getting pregnant around the same time and bonding over having the same type of carvings.

I was just working on my GoLisa baby fic and then realized that 'where would they find diapers to fit a baby with a tail?" Would they just poke holes in it or would Elisa try to find someone that makes customized baby diapers.
"I'm sorry, Miss, but can you repeat that?"
"It was just a hypothetical question"
"But, why would you need a diaper with a hole in the back?"
"Uh, so-hey, I gotta go, lets forget we ever had this conversation! Okay? Bye!"
Hooray! Finally got around to putting my Amanda Conner prints in a (slightly less terrible) frame!
The images are from the Gargoyles comics by Marvel (Way before Disney actually owned them lol). They’re both 11″x17″ and signed by the artist.
I got these bad boys approximately 1,000 years ago when I met Miss Conner at Dragon*Con. What a talent (and a very nice person)!
Now to find a place of honor on the wall…
Doll Tor, occasionally known as the Six Stones, is a small stone circle near Birchover, west of Stanton Moor in the Derbyshire Peak District. Dating from the Bronze Age, the circle consists of six standing stones.
