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

Honestly, I was expecting more of a height difference.

Maybe there's a box.

I'd object not so much because of the wasted prep, but because of the presumption of a need to protect.

I thought of it more as not that he thought that she couldn't do it/needed him to protect her, but that he didn't want her to live with the consequences, that it would change her.

That's protection too. If I decided I can live with the consequences, white knightery like that would piss me the fuck off.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Pics and story from the fundraiser thingy. Further proof that I am a suckass photographer, methinks.

Sorry about the Press xpost. I am bad.

Great article, Allyson. Sorry that the press guy is an asshat. You should write the Kerry campaign and tell them that it is not a good idea for the press face of their candidate to act as if the primary motivation for a young woman at a campaign event is to get laid. Or you could have said "Thanks, I don't need a dick, you're right here."

I wonder if it was all a security thing, with the pen being mightier than the sword, and all that. Perhaps if there was a pencil.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Allyson, that was an excellent article. If I weren't still wearing the shiny off my week-old tag, there were several lines in there I would have grabbed.
