Why do you guys call 'em lemons NEwayz?
Because if we called them kumquats, we would get strange looks...
Although calling them pomegranets could work ...
But then, after you wrote seven, you'd become immortal...
Hmmm...no wonder Kun-chan is so popular....^_^
But I don't think that I'm immortal. *pout* (Yes, I can think of puns
on that, but anyone puns on it and they die!)
(Greek mythology people...pomegranates are the same as ambrosia. Eat
seven seeds and you supposedly become a god/goddess @_@..... ;)
Heh... Lemon goddess? Pomegranate goddess?
Kun-chan...
okay...
Lemon- after Cream Lemon (anime anthology series, IIRC, all with heavy
sexual content) or after Lemon People Magazine (H manga which featured,
among other things, Bondage Fairies).
Pomegranates (sic- don't eat 'em, can't spell 'em) do not confer
godhood.
Persephone, daughter of Demeter the Goddess of Fertility, was kidnapped
by Hades and taken to the Realm of the Dead. After denying fertility to
the earth in her sadness, Demeter is finally given permission to
retrieve her daughter, -provided- that her daughter has eaten nothing in
the Realm of the Dead in the meantime.
As it turns out, Demeter gets to Hades' palace just in time for
Persephone to take a bite out of a pomegranate (grown by the Hades
Citrus and Pomegranate Grower's Association). She swallows six seeds,
and Zeus decreed that Persephone shall live in Hades' realm a month of
the year for each seed swallowed. Thus we have the seasons; spring and
summer when Persephone lives with her mother, and fall and winter when
she's slumming it with Hades.
Did this help at -all?-
