covertiness 

1. the state in which a person claims to be covered by the Intelligence Identities Protection Act as a covert agent while behaving in a manner so as to remove that status or to expose it as false. Such behavior may manifest itself in acts such as: 1) telling a boyfriend on your third or fourth date that you are a CIA agent during a heavy make out session; 2) driving to CIA headquarters without fear of exposure; 3) recommending your spouse for a CIA trip 4) attending inter-agency meetings communicating your relationship with the CIA to persons without a need to know; 5) allowing your spouse to write an Op-ed in the New York Times about that CIA trip; 6) after finding out that a journalist has discovered your identity, calling your boss just to let him know as if it's a minor inconvenience; 7) posing for pictures in a magazine without regard for the safety for colleagues who may be compromised by your exposure.

2. the possession of a relationship to an intelligence agency that is not general knowledge, but is easily ascertainable with minimum research.
Her covertiness was quickly exposed by behaviors that no actual covert person would possibly contemplate.

people who's bodies are amazingly, crazily flexible. so if you ever see someone twisted in ways that no human could possibly do successfully, they are most likely contortionists.

>"Not if they're both contortionists."

contortionist 

Someone who's body seems to be like one large, flexible piece of play-doh. Or made of rubber. Amazing really.

Gymnasts and ballerinas sometimes can become contortionists.
At the half-time show yesterday, I saw a contortionist stand on one hand, bend her legs back over her head and shoot a bow-and-arrow accurately. It was mind-boggling.
