Splanchnopleure (Verb, Intransitive)
Is a structure created during embryogenesis when the lateral mesoderm splits into two. The inner, splanchnic, layer sticks to the endoderm and forms the splanchnopleure in the forming of an human embroy.
Therefore, if something is splanchnopleure, it is the product of the combining of two sticky things.
Like baby stick insects and the crosses that scare vampires in films and that people get crucified on.
(I like the stick insect thing better...)
"Begone, vile creature of the night! O Dread spawn of Caine and devourer of hominid haemoglobin! For I wield splanchnopleure sticks!"
Last words of Andreas T Bygot, famed logophile and amateur vampire hunter who, upon the eventual first meeting of his very first vampire, was stupid enough to think all vampires were Christian.
Or that religious symbols worked at all.
