...You guys have been reading Wapsi Square again, haven't you?
Do NOT tick off the head librarian of the Bibliothiki, or she'll have you for lunch.
Or rip your face off.

And possibly both. Preferably not in that order.
Barmymoo:
Um yeah, I didn't see any kind of phallic reference in the sword joke. Maybe it's just that my mind doesn't run on those lines. I wouldn't have seen one had it been Marten holding the sword either.
I think I'm a tad worried about what will happen when Claire's delusions about libraries are exploded.
Carl-E:
It was just the idea of a sword suddenly making her "feel powerful". In Faye's case, she was already expressing her power through the sword. Even in Sam's case, where she's suddenly expressing (or at least trying to express) her power as Skullmaster, it's wasn't the sword that made her feel that way, but the anonymity of the mask.
At least, that's what I thought when she said that. The small and weak suddenly feeling powerful just by holding a symbol of violence and domination...
Of course, we don't know how many customers she actually hit with it, either!
Mr_Rose:
Swords are not (just) symbols though; they are actual weapons that do multiply the wielder's ability to dispense violence and mayhem. Claire, being of slight build and apparently somewhat timid, probably feels this effect more than others because human perception is fundamentally logarithmic in response.
