[TEXT TO Xavier Carlisle]

So, as I sit here at a gay bar on the prowl for something fresh, I've found myself ending up judging their clothes based on whether or not you'd let me out of the house in them. And I find myself also wondering -- Darling, are you yourself the origin of the word "fabulous"? Because the word itself always brings to mind a picture of you, and also you're old enough to be the origin of some words.

It is slightly before my time. It comes from the notion of 'fables', which were fairy tale or fantasy. The definition of fabulous means to be superb, incredible, almost impossible to believe as truth. Fables originated from sometime in the 1200s, I believe.
