Given that Aliera's first reflex w/rt obstacles (including Jenoine) sometimes seems to be, "Kill it," I'm not sure you could tell the difference between Aliera-being-mocked-unfairly-for-an-incident-that-never-happened and Aliera-being-mocked-for-an-embarrassing-but-true-incident, since both are likely to involve a fair amount of blood and, when all is said and done, no witnesses to the purported incident. ;) Max -- Be pretty if you are, Be witty if you can, But be cheerful if it kills you.
