i think abt the part in the golden compass where it was noted that if your daemon chose to assume the form of a fish or some kind of ocean dwelling creature you could never leave the water again. at best you could dock, maybe walk a bit away from the shore, but that's it. chained to the water because your physical soul form commands it.
is love devotion? is love attachment? is love being bonded so firmly to something that it consumes you? when your daemon chooses it's final form do you weep with joy or fear?
can i kiss you? with tongue.
