His melodious laughter could be heard behind her as he ran with glee. Well, I am certainly glad someone is having fun. If her survival overpowering premonition was not so fierce, she would have smacked him there and then. Alas, the punishment was postponed; not that he would not have an affinity for the violence.

Aramis yelped as she suddenly, halted, his harms wrapped around the base of her waist to steady the two. His laughter was cut short, as his eyes suspiciously watched the ground with stricken unease. "Okay, idiot. You provoked them, save the day." She whirled round; her white-robed dress was pressed against his in heated breathlessness. The two were panting, their faces rouge from either exhaustion or blushing at their closeness. Her own hands pressed against the dip of his muscular back to support herself. A ferocity overwhelmed the two. Aramis pus... ... middle of paper ... ...you tracing her lip?" Porthos asked with a wink. He watched Aramis splutter with awkwardness, a rouge spread across his cheeks - ooh, this was interesting! The romantic with the usual poetry was too much horrified to speak! "I was - uh - checking her lip for blood..." He shuffled on his feet, wringing his hands together with an embarrassed smile. What a terrible eloquent fraud. Porthos scrunched his face in disappointment, that was rubbish. Selflessly giving Porthos the advantage, in fact. "Her lip would only be bleeding if it had been bitten..." He suggested eloquently, Aramis' eyes widened at the insinuation. "Did someone bite her lip, Aramis?" "...Shut up, Porthos!" The lovestruck Musketeer stammered. The deeply feeling of Constance a ghostly presence in his thoughts, just as the sensation of his fingers brushing against her lip was a ghostly presence in hers.
A feeling of exultation overtook her, as if some power of significant import had been given her to control the working of her body and her soul. She grew daring and reckless, overestimating her strength. She wanted to swim far out, where no woman had swum before.
What, with my thin lips and my eyes too close together?""Tally. And my frizzy hair and squashed-down nose? Don't say that, don't say that. " His fingers brushed her cheeks, where the scratches were almost healed, and ran fleetingly across her lips.

However, what I found from my research was that there does seem to be an inherent reliability and could thus be a cornerstone for the concept for mind-body healing.

Never had the princess felt so powerless while at the same time possessing the all encompassing information that would inevitably decide her lover’s fate. As the princess sat with her thoughts, her eyes suddenly gazed upon the eyes of her lover and with the slight flick of a wrist, fate had been decided.
She was beginning to recognize this thing that was approaching to possess her, and she was striving to beat it back with her will--as powerless as her two white slender hands would have been. When she abandoned herself a little whispered word escaped her slightly parted lips. She said it over...

“It’s okay, Detective, it was a rhetorical question. I- I already know I’m dangerous too. I can destroy things with a touch — look at the door if you don’t believe me.
