on thinking up daemons for other muses

[tempts]

Dolphin. Think everyone should have one of those. Buggers are damn smart, might learn a thing or two from them. Big brains and all. 'Sides everything else falls pretty short, you have to admit. [ NO CROWLEY THAT'S JUST BECAUSE YOU HATE FURRY CREATURES. And horses are completely out of the question as are ducks. ]

You mean they talk? Snakes are good too then. Good conversationalist, snakes. You can get a whole ears worth out of one of those and they're pretty much right most of the time. Definitely give one of those to anyone. Best animal ever created. [ So not tooting his own horn over here, nope. ]

Certainly that's not the result of some bias?

[tempts]

Er no. Not at all. [ Why would you think that? ]

Snakes having a bad rep. That's more bias. [ You'd think apples would have a bad reputation too. Apple tree and all. But, no, you don't see anyone not buying those. It was bollocks. ]

[worstaliasever]

That is true. Though most humans do have a reason to fear certain snakes. And they enjoy storytelling.

Dolphins are gang-rapists and baby-killers.

From what I've been told, dolphins would only be much use if they spent their whole lives near water- or in it.

Of course you would be rooting for a snake, you old serpent.
