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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My favorite was when people would start freaking out at work, and she'd start with, "This is not an emergency. An emergency is a resident who got on some random bus and doesn't know how to get home. An emergency is a resident up on the roof. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A FUNDRAISING EMERGENCY."

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Aimee, I'm sorry. Stomach flu sucks. Poor little Em.

She doesn't have any other symptoms, though. And she's running around, playing. Joe's taking her to the doctor at 5:15.

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

Hey, she has a parent with her. That's the important thing. Well, that and her getting well.

But I'm the MOMMY. OTOH, glad it's Joe getting puked on.

I'm thinking you've got the better part of the deal, Aimee. Just wait until she gets older -- when I was little, I always climbed right in bed next to my mom after I puked. I didn't tend to wake her up.
