Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Jesse, I'm really glad you went back to school. It is clear you are enjoying it immensely, and that's a lovely thing to see.

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

There were scenarios in which I'd have stayed out later, but really -- I was chilly, and I see these people all the time. It was a good party, and I'd been there for over three hours at that point. The street clothes novelty wasn't enough to keep me, plus if I woke up at ass o'clock in the morning, I could have buttermilk pancakes way ahead of having to teach.

I really like buttermilk pancakes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Aw, thanks, sara.

Stop trying to justify, ita -- you're just old and cranky.

OK, off to the air conditioned bedroom for reals.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I really like buttermilk pancakes.

I've got a good recipe from that. My erstwhile neighbor used to work at Zazie and nabbed it for me before she left.

So, apparently, have I. It's a little random with the consistency, but as long as I pay attention and don't let them overbrown -- let's just say I'll be buying much more maple syrup next Canada visit.

You crazy, get-up-early-to-fix-breakfast types. FREAKS.

Well, I was already up anyway. Might as well get something tastyuseful done.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'm home! Did you miss me?

But I swear I never saw a Tim Horton's in Vancouver.

There is one in the airport, and I know I saw others.

The first time my mother called today, she left a message saying "I hear you guys had an earthquake!"

The second time was to tell me they'd just had one.

If there's an earthquake in South London, I apologise to everyone affected on behalf of my accursed family.

That is freaky, ita.
