You're talking to Serenity. And, Early... Serenity is very unhappy.

Spike's Bitches 28: For the Safety of Puppies...and Christmas!  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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

a rustic feel, not suburban, not rural, partially small town-ish, but maybe with a more "bohemian"/alternative feel

Yeah, probably pricy. But not my cup of tea, so it's not like I've been paying attention.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

it is just that I boggle when people don't understand why leaving California might seem real shiny.

That's just it though -- I have no desire to ever leave Brooklyn. Hell, I don't even want to leave Carroll Gardens. The reason houses are so pricey in this neighborhood is that it's perfect. It's got every kind of shopping and eating you could want within walking distance, it's got great schools, it's a mile from the park, it's 15 minutes from Manhattan...I love living here so much. I doubt we'll be able to afford to stay here with kids, but it'll kill me to leave.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Gud, you live near a school district called "Peculiar"? Cool.

Yeah, I'm just a little north of Peculiar, Missouri.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Millions of congratulations, Cash, and welcome, Olivia!

Olivia Rose is a seriously pretty name.

Seriously. And now I'm earwormed with "Starfish and Coffee," with slightly altered lyrics. All of us are ordinary, compared to 'Livia Rose.

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

Oh I don't question why people want to stay in places with astronomic real estate prices. I just completely get it when they also want to leave for whatever reason.

I've adored my neighborhood. I just really would like to be in a place I actually own and that just can't happen here. Nor would I want it to. My house is darling but spending about $700K on something that needs to be leveled and rebuilt? Even if I could technically afford it, I wouldn't want to put that kind of money into it.

I knew you'd be the other person thus affected.

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

Baby baby baby! Welcome Olivia!

We'll have to get her a Teatro Olivia when she's older.
