Once upon a time there was a hippie chick who fell in love with a goth girl. They lived happily ever after.
To their friends, though, the relationship was troublesome.
Imagine a Taijitu, or a Yin and Yang symbol, perfectly balanced. Now, imagine that the Yang element, the white half, starts to encroach on the Yin's section. The white bleeds over its boarders. The movement is deliberate, insidious.
The Yang spreads over three quarters of the circle. Now seven eighths. It progresses unhurriedly, almost lazily.
Soon the only Yin that remains is the small black circle once inside the original Yang's half. It is small in the whiteness.
The Yin speaks, "I love you."
"I love you too," answers the Yang and swallows the tiny remaining Yin.
The goth girl ostensibly remained a goth girl and the hippie chick, a hippie chick, and they lived, perhaps happily, ever after.
