Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

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."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That was incredible, thanks.

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.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

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.
