ShapeShifter Seduction Contest

'Intentional' Rain

9/2/09-- The day following the intention experiment [suggested in this show - Coast to Coast am] to cause rain covering the fires in Southern California, we were drenched. Redlands is 10 to 15 minutes from the fires in Yucaipa. The rain started out in the mountains at the fire locations and proceeded to drench Redlands. It has not rained here for many months. We should do some more experiments of the intention technique. It was the coolest thing I have seen in quite a while. There was also tremendous lighting and thunder. The thunder was so loud that it set off car alarms twice.

Just for the cowboy lovin’ big cats ~ a sneaky peekie RECENT-snippet from BRANDED BY THE TEXANS...

Kylie inhaled a huge breath, then blurted, “Why are you branding me?”
Dono unlocked his body and set the plate down with slow deliberation. He and Dash glanced at each other, both of their gazes asking, what now?
“You’re our wife, Kylie. Branding you lets everyone know that.” Dono scooted to the edge of the couch, observing her closely.
Folding her arms, she sank against the back of the couch and tilted her chin stubbornly. “Okay, what if I don’t want to be your wife in a year?”
Dash audibly gasped, then clamped his lips shut. He didn’t move, his fists clenched.
Everything inside Dono rioted against her words. “A year’s a long time, sweetheart.”

Happy Courtship on another Earth

X-Serial Flash in Two Hundred ~ Sylva and Zeke’s story continues...

Part 250 ~

Sylva leaned into the corner of the booth, her gaze glued on the drawn pistols of Marina and Grant. To her eye, they looked almost toy-like. Though, by the way Zeke’s sister and her husband gripped them, aiming toward the entrance, Sylva knew different. It had happened so fast, she’d been scared out of her mind, at first, thinking Zeke and Ranson were drawing on each other. From her vantage point, the three other people dining had drawn their weapons, and a man in a cook’s apron moved through the swinging doors, his rifle pointed. She heard the door open.

Zeke eased his body to a superior advantage as the door swung open. Once his squinty gaze swept the room, the Long Walker slowly removed his hand from the butt of his sidearm. Even more slowly, he raised his palm in a gesture of backing off. “Sorry, folks,” he growled, “looks like I’m not wanted here.” Zeke heard the owner move forward and saw the rifle barrel in his peripheral vision “Depends. If you’re here peacefully, you’re welcome. If not, keep on going out the door. Keep on going out of town. Cause the Sheriff is gonna know right quick.”

Intentional kiss from the Kougar...

Lunar Eclipse Escape

Frustration yowl! The Kougar is about to run for the hills. And time flies as fast as the Millenium Falcon escaping from Darth Vader. At purring least, the prairie hills are luminous with sundown, a vibrant gorgeous pink below the indigo-shaded bank of clouds. And a very welcomed rain blessed the land, the later-arriving snow melting as it struck the too-warm ground.
Opinions, they spray like bullets from an automatic -- or, like each droplet of water spraying up from a passing bus lumbering swiftly down the street after a downpour. Wanted, or not, opinions abound. The Kougaress has a wish never to be fulfilled, don't ask for an opinion you don't want, since a knotted giant yarn ball of emotional chaos ensues... emotions never to be satisfied. It doesn't exist in the realm of possibility.
Or, perhaps, it is merely the celestial arrival of the lunar eclispse on the night of February 20, driving moi's frustration and escapism fantasy. Mother Earth separates Lunabelle from Sol's light, thus, we are separated from the light of Diana. From what the Kougaress has researched this is a time to gaze at our personal situation in the world, and use the tools of Earth to make changes, to make practical improvements. For example, your lair home, Big Kitties, what would you alter to have it suit you, your purr preferences?

Lunar Eclipse Escape, it should be a title -- and, thus, with a magical roar, the Kougar proclaims it so.

The night cat, as is the Kougar's natural cycle now, listened with great sadness to last night's Coast-to-Coast show with Ian Punnett. For what she knows, has prowling-gaze observed for a decade now, was Ian's topic. It is the loss of men. The loss of real men. With brutal despair for herself, for all of us, and for our future, she heard all the good doctor presented -- a horror sci fi pictures of males chemically altered toward feminization -- proven out by the doctor's research and experience with his patients.
The Kougar's mighty pleading yowl soars for the heavens. Real men, please...Bast, oh please, real men.

Kisses to all real men from the Kougar...
