Text

Chaeremon requests your company at dinner at the table of the lord Sarapis in the serapeum tomorrow, the 15th, at 9 o'clock.[2]

gollark: Anyway, unless you would also give parents property rights over their children's bodies, I don't think this matters very much.
gollark: Nope, cloning is totally possible now.
gollark: I'm *derived from* them. I don't particularly want to be half their property, or something.
gollark: So I'm half of each of my parents? I don't like the implications of this.
gollark: FEAR my access to anomalous Unicode.
