arcanetrivia: a light purple swirl on a darker purple background (humour (borgin & burkes))
Ever since I made an apple brown betty for Thanksgiving (instead of pumpkin pie, for once), I have not been able to get this bit of sketch dialogue from Space Mutiny (MST3K episode 820) out of my head:

Crow: Eat death, Servo!
Servo: Eat munchy crunchy chocolatey cocoa death, Crow!
Crow: Enjoy a nice serving of brown betty with death! But, but mostly eat death.

That's usually the sort of thing I think of when I think of someone "eating death". Like "eating lead" means "getting shot".

...Dumb choice for terrorist/cult name Y/N?

(I gotta say, though, that "Mangemorts" has a certain ring to it.)

Y!
I really don't know what Jo was thinking when she came up with that name... I get the whole Beefaters connection, but, frankly, that's a pretty dumb name, too.

It involves a lot of transfiguration of Death into a rather nice pastry.

Although "Voldemort's Mangemorts" is either brilliant or sounds like some disgusting sort of disease. Or disgusting sort of Herbology plant.

"Today we'll be studying Mangemort, class. Can any of you tell me what mangemorts are - *yes*, miss Granger."

"They're planted in graveyards to prevent zombification! And the name is from the French 'death eater', and corpses of wizards used to be buried with a mangemort seed over the heart so the plant would grow roots from the dead body, and thus keep the body from being resurrected by an unscrupulous Dark wizard! They're also used in potions for gangrene, and -"

"Yes *thank* you, miss Granger, now let's examine the seedlings, class."
