Also there is bound to be much dicking around for the members of the people on the corporate court . .

@Riley :notworthy: I suggest not resisting in the case of Aztech. An unwilling participant is par for the course to them.

I searched Google for you. Top hit is on Time magazine, an article titled "Of Spirit and Blood", about gambling on "Indian reservations". A few hits down is spiritwaterblood.com, which I find scarier than porn: "We represent the Christians of the world who refuse to allow their people to be destroyed and their faith to be hijacked by race queers and sex queers. We call our brothers and sisters in blood to return to the faith of our fathers and rebuild Western civilization. View the Principles of Kinism in the right margin." Rich people do indeed get lonely in a manner different than the rest of us. They know that their money can always get them company; they can reasonably assume that their money is part of any partner's interest, unless they can pull off the "Prince and the Pauper" route. They also can reasonably assume far less privacy; if they so much as flirt, let alone visit someone overnight, it will be noticed by paparazzi and those watching them for opportunity. Corporate Corp reps would, I imagine, generally have high CHA and INT; each rep has a staff including several assistants with high CHA and INT; put a lot of them together and biochemistry will happen. Also, parathyroid and other metabolism boosters might affect desire, and the bodyguards (eg assistants doubling as bodyguards) will all be well-groomed if not actually pretty. Conflicts of interest, multiple agendas, secrecy and misdirection ensue. As far as I'm willing to derail this thread: I imagine that attraction to butch/macho Orks is a hot taboo among the Tir, and that pictures of scantily-clad elves are vehemently denied among Sons of Sauron. Hmm, what *do* elves think of Orlando Bloom as Legolas? "Still the prettiest"? |
