Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

How very tidy of you.

Not especially. It was really more the "OH MY GOD THERE ARE TWO OF THEM NOW" reaction.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

'splain more fully, please Cindy. Leave up an idle window set to the ending thread, which has a posting box, while keeping up in another window, you mean?

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

What is even happening?

'splain more fully, please Cindy. Leave up an idle window set to the ending thread, which has a posting box, while keeping up in another window, you mean?

Yes. Keep open a window with the thread loaded, where the posting box is still present (so when the posts are up in the 999Xs, it's time, otherwise the posting box disappears), so it has a posting box. Keep up in another window, and after the thread has been closed, sneak back in. Then DX will come in and go all Dawn-eeeeee on you, and post:

Get out! Get out! Get out!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

"Don't think of yourself as an organic pain collector racing towards oblivion." Dogbert to Dilbert

If Joss is writing X-Men, does that make the X-Men Jossverse?

I would say no, since Joss didn't invent the characters. He will be operating under Marvel's restraints as to what he can do. If he wants to kill somoene off, he'll have to get approval from the editors.

Should we change the thread title regardless?

I'm in favor of just changing the thread description.
