lian adopts words: "fuck" and "cigarettes"

The Orphanage marks its first adoption in, uh, the longest time with a double adoption, this time of two of our more, shall we say, unruly words: "fuck" and "cigarettes". How exactly do you copulate with tightly rolled wads of tobacco, I leave to your imagination: suffice to say that our foster parent this time around is female, and I certainly hope her surgeon did a good enough job to pass off as anatomically accurate on first sight at least.

(Editor's Note: We were supposed to start off this post in epic iambic pentameter, but ah well- so much for ambition.)
