Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Can we have Orlando Bloom and Johny Depp with us? How about the Coupling guy?

Yes. Yes. Which one?

Which Coupling guy? I suspect Jack Davenport, who played Commodore Norrington in PotC and Steve (I think) on Coupling.

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

If we can't find anything agreeable, we'll find fewer new things?

Si nous ne trouvons pas des choses agréables, nous trouverons du moins des choses nouvelles translates to "If we do not find anything pleasant, at least we shall find something new." I'd had the worst pithy paraphrase of that in my head, and folk here helped me get back to the French. It's Voltaire, from Candide.

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

Yes. Yes. Which one?

As Calli guessed, I was thinking of Jack Davenport, but the other guy (Patrick?) would be good too.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

but the other guy (Patrick?) would be good too.
Yes. Yes, he would...

I find them all adorable in different ways. Ben Miles is adorable in the more carnal of them.

edit: You know that feeling when you click the button once and your finger is just itching to do it again? It was like I couldn't stop from the clicking... And was chastised with the dread double post for it too.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Now I have some sort of earworm of "Tainted Love"-- with the lyrics being "Tainted Loons".....

That was the intention, yes.
