Hello, new neighbors. My name is Moana, and I live [...] upstairs from all of you, I think. I will do my best to be a quiet neighbor, but in the next couple of weeks I will start getting some visitors. Don't concern yourselves with them, it's a business matter and it's best to just not worry about it. I'm sure I will meet some of you over the next few days, as I'm overseeing the moving of my furniture, so feel free to say hello, if you'd like.

I'm afraid I've come off as being unfriendly. I promise that's untrue, it's just so hard to be anything but impersonal over the internet. Face to face, I promise I'm much, much nicer.

You're not? Such a shame. I can take care of that.

You see, back in Roman times there was this slave named Androcles. He runs away from his cruel master. He doesn't get far before coming tired and seeks refuge in a cave. He believes it's abandoned and falls asleep soon enough. It's not much later though that he's woken by a terrible roaring. Androcles shoots up to see a ferocious lion in there with him. At first look, he's monstrous and terrifying - a real danger.

At the second glance, he realizes there's a thorn in the lion's paw. Androcles befriends the lion by pullin the thorn from his paw. They help each other later on and when faced with having to kill each other, instead refuse to.

	How [...] interesting! Now, the question is, do you think I'm Androcles, or the lion? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hm, maybe we should just reserve judgment on that one for now, then, shall we? I don't feel like I can reliably judge my own thorns. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Few people can. Did I say I was Sheila? (Reply to this) (Parent)
