Sounds about right, Susan.
Dana, OMG that is quite possibly the funniest damned thing I've ever seen. Bwah. Hah.
Ok, what am I missing?
Ouhh! Snacks! The secret to any successful migration! Who's up for some tasty fried meat products!?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Wrong, and yet funny.
So, so true.
txt msging w/ the boy today:
Me: So, the new Pope looks just like Palpatine.
Him: Wait, the Pope is Zell Miller?
Me: Nah, just an ex-Nazi and Grand Inquisitor.*
Him: Oh, well, then. That makes all the difference.
* Not actually trying to reopen that convo. Just reporting the txt snark.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Dana what am I missing on the link?
Susan -- backhand or front? Open or closed fist? You're more likely to get blood with the backhand, since the knuckles squeezing flesh against teeth encourages the whole blood stuff.
You may want to also consider the wrenching in the neck, a fiery sensation on the outside of the cheek as well as the shredded inside (especially if her mouth was open when he hit her). And it might prompt involuntary tears. Being hit in the face (especially near the nose) can do that.
Guns, IME, left me feeling like I had far fewer choices.
Don't forget knives. Dangerous shit. Really dangerous.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
everything makes me think of SNL today. The Zell Miller stuff on their Chris Matthews mock is FUNNY.

Susan, I haven't been slapped or punched since I was a teenager, but based on the last fight I fought, I'd think her cheek might buzz, sting, and later burn. If her mouth was open, she would have cut her inner cheek on her teeth. Depending on how hard she was hit, she might feel dizzy from the impact, but she would probably be feeling sort of heightened awareness (and maybe a bit woozy) from the rush of adrenaline.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
brenda and ita, click on the link again and look at the upper right hand corner. The picture and the entry do not match.

Oh. I assumed that was a picture of him as a young(er) man in some German church get-up. Who is it really?
Edit: Never mind, it's a Star Wars joke.
