That seems like not such a huge threat -- I mean, I'd rather be nasty than lose my stuff.
I know, world in peril and we have to work together. This is my last office romance, I'll tell you that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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

Exactly. I would, though, be concerned about my eyes and mouth, and if I was at risk for catching anything, but mostly I'd then want to pummell them into the ground.
I think I shall waste some time today, MONTHS ahead of the trip, wondering what I will take with me.

Oh, I hadn't even thought of that. EW.

Yeah, while that threat is disgusting, not nearly so worrisome as a gun or knife wound, neither of which will wash off.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Guys who threaten to throw their shit (already decanted) on you if you don't give up your valuables.
Ew. Closest I've come to this was in Delhi, where it's standard practice for the street shoeshiners to throw shit on your shoes when you're not looking, and then offer to clean them for you. Happened to DH while he was wearing sneakers, which was both gross and confusing.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Oof. My good boss just gave notice. This is not ideal.
I don't think I've ever had a good boss leave and have them replaced by an equally good boss. It trends downward, and the new person fits with their higher ups (who did the hiring), but not necessarily with you since Newbie didn't hire you. My good boss hired me. That worked.

Polio? I did not know that.
I'm just learning so much today.
