For those of you unable to spend the entirety of the amount of time required reading the book of posts in Two Sides to Every Story please refer to Posts: #20- #29 Celina dear, me, cause trouble? I'm offended you would think such a thing... And Brittany darling, we'll call it even at 12years, 9months, and 21days ...if I knew the hour and minutes, I'd figure it all up And that's okay Raynor, as long as I get to enjoy the threads and the controversy...as well as publicly exploit such information to the entire school...I can be out of the running and still be happy

It's okay Shay. You deserve better anyway Not sure when Raynor became such a cougar, but whatever floats her boat... And while reading about that couple in HP6/7, I wasn't one to consider it all that acceptable (I believe my reaction was "ew" for that too) still not sure why a juvenille Deva mamber is more acceptable than one closer to your own age

Felicity, darling, you will make a wonderful reporter. Cougar? o.O Not the exactly word I would have picked. Though I would never describe Raynor as a meek individual either, and she never has been. I would say it is more than she is usually very professional, as one would hope given her profession, often hides behind her formality actually. I wouldn't say actually allowing herself to break free from that restriction for once makes her a "cougar". And I said that it was acceptable to the characters, my dear, not the readers (though I personally thought it was an adorable pairing, but I'm a very open minded person, and everyone has different opinions). The only one against it was Remus himself, and that was more of an excuse because he was afraid over the werewolf bit. ^.^ I was expressing that it doesn't seem too big of a breech for wizarding culture. As for Shaw and Raynor, they really do hate each other, and that goes really far back -- never a romantic interest. But I'm not revealing details on that, you'll just have to wait to find out. Not that I'm saying it won't strike up controversy. Its a very interesting IC twist and I'm actually excited to see where the drama will go.

A cougar is an older woman, usually in the 35+ range, going after a much younger guy, usually in the under 25 range. You, my dear professor, are a cougar edit: checked to make sure I had my ages right.

Again...that's only age! We're also two girls....totally my point. If age is a problem...then I've got bigger issues I have to think about when I come out. But for the record....I don't think anyone was really asking for comments about it....I think they just said that if you're interested you can read it. If you think that is 'ew' than don't read it, man! What'cha think'n?! Heck you think that's bad...at least they're keeping it secret....I'll be in the hallways with my girl... You just wait.

If only that was what I planned on doing Raynor...though now the thought is there... I don't know, Raynor's a pretty good looking woman for her age Though, if we're talking about cougars, I've got this for you: Taken From HereThough Raynor might be smart by being taken with the younger, good looking male Jedynak...I'm wondering if Raynor's sniffer might be a bit off?

google "cougar" and then look at the ads that pop up on the side My reference from the Urban dictionary: Noun. A 35+ year old female who is on the "hunt" for a much younger, energetic, willing-to-do-anything male. The cougar can frequently be seen ... waiting, watching, calculating; gearing up to sink her claws into an innocent young and strapping buck who happens to cross her path. "Man is cougar's number one prey"It's not the most appropriate site, so I took out one bit, but that's the gist. and another reference, just as a validation of the term: www.amazon.com/Cougar-Guide-Older-Dating-Younger/dp/1552976351

I'm not fighting. I'm debating. and now I'm refraining from making inappropriate comments about spectators. I actually thought that definition was funny and wanted to share it
