She was in total understanding

I'm glad someone is, because I have no idea what's going on in that paragraph.

If I only had a brain...

She was in total understanding that what she was experiencing was something that had also transpired in other times she had traveled through before.

It's deja vu all over again!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Nikita started to move towards the service area to order another coffee and thought better of it, walking instead towards the refrigerated pre-packed area and buying a pint of whole milk. Nikita was always looking for something to spice up her life and somehow she knew that traditionally milk did a body good.

Nikita seems to be really susceptible to advertising.

The two women exchanged a glance and then Nikita was witness, as if watching an Oscar winning film, to Giles Levac's life. Quietly Simone joined Nikita's side and they watched Giles do what he did best - take command of any given situation, even if he was not more than a secondary character in a supporting role.

She's really turning me off of "The Barbarian Invasions", although I think it's actually a good movie.

Gilles Levac appeared out of a black iron gate next to an obviously autumn affected bush

That bush is *so* obvious.

Gilles Levac's voice was soft, authoritative, pleasing, honorable and with a hint of a lyrical tone.

Of course it was.

Nikita watched the rich man before her almost whimper with the frustrating dissolution that comes with knowing that one has lost control of one's actuality - the invasion.

I hate it when my actuality gets invaded. By barbarians.

She picked up the cell phone and made a call to the recognizable specter, a professor she had a non-sexual affair with and who introduced her to the contemptible cannabis. After professing his yeaning for her, the man quickly and efficiently divulged a heroin source.

Um. Good thing she never slept with him? I guess?

Of course, as it was usually the case, things were quickly back to their quotidian self with Sebastien worried only about himself.

Quotidian?

Nikita quizzically told Sebastien before they parted ways, "In the 22nd century there is really just one problem - we are being assaulted by civilization. Isn't that a fact? Listen to Gilles Levac, 'It's an Invasion.'"

Sebastien smiled at Nikita's retreating back; he was truly confused at the remark

Oh, honey, me too.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

If milk spices up your life you need to seriously reconsider your overall nutrition plan.

If milk spices up your life you need to seriously reconsider your overall nutrition plan.

Or, possibly, your life.

After professing his yeaning for her, the man quickly and efficiently divulged a heroin source.

A professor professing his yeaning always leads to efficient heroin. Be All That You Can Be. Nationwide is on your side. Plop, plop, fizz, fizz. Oh, what a relief it is!

I blame it on the wacky weed.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

weeping with laughter.

Man, she must never stop writing. And I think that the next Lemony Snicket book should definitely be The Contemptible Cannabis.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I want to know about the frustrating dissolution, myself. Or maybe the spicy milk....

Always Anti-fascist!

Someday I should dedicate a book to her, because in her weird way, she does convince me to keep writing. FAY! Babe, you should totally visit Buffista fic, because I think I'm writing something very Fay-ish(not that I should pimp myself)

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Hey, Erika, I meant to tell you: Barkley (on LJ) just posted a Homicide vid that I think you'd probably squee over. It's all Tim and Frank and Adena, and it's marvelous.
