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.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

A rather remarkable story on Garry Trudeau here: [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That was incredible, thanks.

Yeah, wow.

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

Totally amazing.

I've adored Doonesbury for years. I remember the gut punch I felt when I realized B.D. had gone down.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

I remember the gut punch I felt when I realized B.D. had gone down.

Right? I was afraid at first that he was killed.

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

It makes me feel almost guilty that I lapsed out of reading it.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Me, too. I remember a large part of one particular job wherein I spent years reading through the archives in chronological order. After that I kept up daily for a while, but it's been some time since I've been a regular reader. And I should be. Because, love. You know, in that painful and real way.

What is even happening?

Me too, ita.

Corwood, that was great. I didn't really need to fall in love with Garry Trudeau, though.
