He chooses.
Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

Spike's Bitches 23: We've mastered the power of positive giving up.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

So wish for Homicide in it's glory days...the obnoxious NBC promo"The case Frank Pembleton was born to solve...ripped from the headlines. Can God's Detective choose between his duty and his faith?"(Like he does every Friday, but whatever.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Relieved to hear the cats are safely indoors, Kate.
And glad the detective called vw back.

What is even happening?
Re: the Pope, I'm confused about how they're named. What is it about Ratzinger (is that really his name? wow) that he gets named Benedict XVI? I mean, why wasn't he John Paul III?
His name name was Joseph Ratzinger. And then once they're elevated to cardinal, (actually this might happen at bishop, or archibishop, for all I know, but I know it happens at cardinal, too) their names are given like this: Joseph, Cardinal Ratzinger (or Bernard, Cardinal Law). When a pope is poped, his picks a name. So Benedict is his choosing.

I've decided that Banana Republic needs to bring back the t-shirts they sold whne they were first opened in the 80's. The ones with the animals on the backs? They could make baby-tees for women, too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Banana Republic used to be so pointlessly cool, with the whole safari thing. Now they're like The Gap with fewer jeans. Hell, The Gap is The Gap with fewer jeans.

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

And Mal is just the cutest little thing in Greece. (I can't say the world, because the other Buffista babies would negate that.) Congratulations, Raquel!
Kate, the newly-elected pope may choose to keep his own name (in this case Joseph) or pick another. Often, he picks a name that gives a hint as to where he's going theologically.
This is definitely going to be a x-post.

Because books.
Timelies. Spreading all-purpose industrial-strength ~ma willy-nilly because I skipped like a mad thing. But I did look at the wonderful Ohio pictures, and at Raquel's Mal, who is the epitome of cute.
Hell, The Gap is The Gap with fewer jeans.
This is so very true.
