NVS is on a distinguished road
Angela's avatar is the first cell of a threesome-themed "Adult Cartoon" aimed at those with the admittedly rare zombie cookie fetish. See how the central character is unbuttoning those to his (or her...who can tell?) either side? The three-way scene ends with them all rendered to nothing but crumbs. Appropriately, the cartoon is called “Got milk?”
NVS is online now

You need to fill the "well," replenish it, for the times you need to "drink" from it. Give of yourself (in all things) and reap abundance for when you need to take (anything). If we take without giving, the well will run dry. Is up to us to quench or thirst.
