    I enjoy my Wessica Discount on 5,000 year old Rhody x Huxley porn. ;D

    But on topic, I really like how the two were found in Verona, Italy. So Romeo and Juliet, ja?

    Yeah I don't want to hear anymore else about seals or anything. So some people think it's romantic. Whatever. Not everything has to turn into an argument!

    I'm not...completely sure how I feel about this. I guess it's kinda cute. I think I find it more sad than romantic.

    I don't really know how to respond to this, but I'm thinking that it's a good start for dreaming up some crazy story.

    People interpret sensory input differently. When Renmiri sees this picture, she thinks of love. When you see it, Anaisa, you think of bones. Both are perceptions of the same thing. The fact that the skeletons are embracing leads one to believe the pair died in an embrace. No one will ever know why they were embracing. It isn't so far fetched to believe it was a loving embrace. Just because you're not impressed by it means about as much to me as the fact that Renmiri (and others) are impressed by it means to you. If you perceive the photo differently, you're more than welcome to say so. Suggesting that other people are wrong in their perceptions given the fact that there is no evidence counter to those perceptions is something you're not welcome too.

    Also, Anaisa and MILFY, stay on topic. I don't care about who goes gay and who buys what pictures of who being gay. Transactions such as those (as long as they are between two consenting adults) can be made via PM.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    I'd be down with that.

    I happen to think it's romantic, myself. Sure, they're dead and all, but to just think about the fact that they were buried together in an embrace, and that there's more than likely a tragic story behind it, gets us romantics in a stir and we come up with several scenarios. Maybe it was a Romeo+Juliet kind of thing? Maybe he was in a war and she found him nearly dead, deciding she wanted to die with him? We'll never know for sure, but it's great to dream

    Exactly! I love writing - just fan fiction so far - and the romantic possibilities are huge. Romeo and Juliet for sure, but so many more romatic stories could have happened!

    But yeh, a bit bittersweet because they are dead. Yet dying in the arms of the one you love can't be all that bad, since we all have to go someday.

    I'd like to be cuddled with my beloved when I die. And 5,000 years later, when they find our bones and think seals or dinossaurs are cutter, I'll be happy in heaven (or in oblivion) so I won't mind at all

    Touching in a way, though its true story could have been anything. But I will think that they were lovers buried together, simply because doing so is the most profound and romantic.
