Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

What are these dire needs of which you speak?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

No, silly one. It is actually fun to see them decend upon Natter in urgent need of a thread. It has maybe happened twice.

Dear Abby, I fear that the Stompies have become less responsive to my needs. Not only do they refuse to add a feature that would allow me to filter out individual letters (I don't like j, it looks shifty to me), but now they are willing to let me go up to an hour at a time without Bitches. Can anything be done?

Signed, Offender of the Depressed.

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

::stabs billytea to death, looks around for Laura::

ita, I feel you've become unresponsive to my need to not be stabbed to death.

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

To resolve whether or not I have, may I suggest preferential voting? I'll be in the next room.

Here's the proposal. Rank in order of preference:

1. ita should not stab billytea to death.
2. ita should totally stab billytea to death.
3. Why are we talking stabbing? Has she sprained her little pinky or something?
4. Now that you mention it, that 'filter individual letters' thing sounds pretty cool. It'd take, what, a weekend?
5. First they came for billytea, but I didn't speak up, because I'm not an alien monotreme-loving freak. Plus, ita scares me.

Any seconders?

Our wings are not tired.

You should be afraid billytea. Don't think the width of the country can save you from the wrath of ita. She could change your tag line to "spank me."

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I would respond to billytea's proposal, but I am currently being unresponsive. Call back later.

If I only had a brain...

All right, who gave ita the knives?

oops

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Hey, should Bishop in Previously be white-fronted? I can't quite figure either way if it's spoilery or not.
