She does like her little pranks.

We were discussing the problems of universalising the idea of "love god" because what people actually mean by that, theologically, varies...

I say, "I mean, some people categorise Hetharu as 'love goddess', but what she actually governs is the cosmic principles of attraction and repulsion, if you get really abstract about it."
HeartShadow says, "... so magnets?"
I say, "Yep."
I say, "This is why I joke that she's the goddess of unified field theory."
HeartShadow says, "... someone is LAUGHING IN MY HEAD AGAIN"
NaomiJ says, "I never bought the idea of Aengus as a love god, in the Irish stuff. Only post-Romantic era, I suspect."
HeartShadow mutters in the corner
NaomiJ grin
I say, "What's the joke, Shad?"
HeartShadow says, "....me, apparently"
HeartShadow mutters. magnets. grrrrr. Cow-headed nuisance
NaomiJ says, "You have Hathor issues?"
I say, "Did you have a mystical revelation involving magnets?"
HeartShadow says, "more of a long-running fascination and jokes"
I say, "If it helps she's associated with copper rather than iron so more electromagnets than plain ones? ;P"
HeartShadow says, "and ... just ... fuck."
HeartShadow says, "oh, sure, so hard drives while she's at it."
I say, "She keeps busy."
