The weird thing about that theory is it doesn't prevent you from going back in time and killing someone you don't know is alive in the present. So it's kind of a...useless theory.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Since our memories of the people would also fade what with their entire existence being erased, how do we know they don't?
There's a great story about that phenomenon, I wish I could remember who it was by. (Basically, we send a probe back in time to record all of history from the Big Bang to the present, assuming that because it's just recording, nothing will be changed. And as the probe travels through time, this theory is confirmed -- the panel watching the recording is comprised of giant purple octopus thingies communicating by clicking their tentacles together...just as they always had.)

Good god, I love the two of you as a couple. Can a person have a crush on a couple?
I hope so, because I have a huge, HUGE crush on Hec & JZ, and often sulk that Pete and I can't go hang out with them on the spur of the moment.
I also often sulk about the same thing in relation to most of the Buffistas, actually.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
It was probably a mistake to consume a diuretic right before going into a movie.
Ooooh! Serenity preview!
You posted from the theatre?!? You ROCK, Scola.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The weird thing about that theory is it doesn't prevent you from going back in time and killing someone you don't know is alive in the present. So it's kind of a...useless theory.
So ... if you have an agency where you're provided with a list of people to go back and kill, some of whom are alive, some of whom aren't, and you aren't told which are which, you should be golden. I mean, you wouldn't know.
Odd theory.
Watched The Closer. Kinda grumpy because I guessed the ending as soon as they said one body, one set of prints, one missing person, so the rest of it was all a waiting game, and a process of watching Kyra screw her face up so she doesn't look pretty.
Hey, at least there was no Botox.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
(Oh, like people don't have huge huge couple-crushes on Jilli and Pete.)

I'm more in awe of them than crushing on them.

My co-workers think we need our own reality tv show.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I would sooo watch the Jilli and Pete show.

brillig
the Jilli and Pete show.
"Will Pete make his deadline? What weird thing will he be asked to paint next? What will Jilli wear? Who will she cause to freak out from being unable to cope with the Perky Goth's sheer fabulosity? And will Dread Lord Clovis succeed in his evil mind control plans?"
