I have no doubt that she always behaves according to her own personal moral code. Whether that matches up with anyone else's is for the most part irrelevant.

Behaving according to one's moral code != not being naughty, though. :)

It doesn't? How else would you define "naughty"?

I am... confused by your confusion. But will do my best to explain.

In this particular case, I am referring to her strong tendancy toward being a bit of a brat (but not in a bad way), toward being a (pleasant) tease, toward being mischevous. These are often referenced as not behaving or being naughty, but are not negative things. They do, however, make it very difficult for her to claim that said things are being done innocently, without awareness of effect or without intention. :)

See, this is like the word "nasty" being used in a positive way: I will simply never get it.

I am entirely unable to explain why I also have trouble with 'nasty' being used positively, but am sufficiently able to understand 'not behaving' or 'being naughty' used in that manner that I use it myself. Possibly that I never heard those words used much in any other context.

She's always behaved, and never been naughty around me. Maybe I'm a good influence on her?

Gotta go. The flying pigs are assaulting the birdfeeder again.

I suspect that I put on a very good front because everyone's mother's thinks I'm wholesome. And the ones whose sons I date think I'm a good influence.

It's endlessly amusing to me.

I hope you have managed to save the birdfeeder!

I came upon the impression ages ago that [livejournal.com profile] jasra was more the calm and reflective sort, and so it is always pleasantly startling when it's revealed to me that she is also a silly perv.

*laughing* Yeah, but I bet I come across as calm and reflective to people who don't know me, too!

*laugh* That's wonderful. I am most definitely all of those things, just some of them seem to not show until I've known a person for a little bit.
