Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I never had any idea that the bouquet was linked to virginity. One lives, one learns.
I was wondering whether or not to post that as well.

Heh. I was totally sure it was about the quickies too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Likely story.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
There should be no chocolate chips in muffins, bagels or bread.
I disagree. When one is making making chocolate bread, one should include chocolate chunks.

Chocolate bread should not exist.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
its the original notion that seems icky to me now.
I didn't realize it was meant to be throwing your virginity away; I just dislike how it smacks of "Catch the bouquet and YOU WIN!!! Your grand prize for elbowing the other single women in the face to catch the flowers? A HUSBAND!!!!"
It just seems to put forth the idea that being the next one to get married is the ultimate goal OMG YOU LUCKY BITCH!!!
And, y'know, I have a LOT of goals I'd put before getting married. (Unfortunately no one throws a "world domination" bouquet.)

I like chocolate bread more than cake and etc. a lot of the time, because it's not as sweet. It's still dessert.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Oh, me? I despise the quickie, everyone knows this.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Unfortunately no one throws a "world domination" bouquet.
What kind of flowers would be appropriate for that? Something with thorns?

At a friend's wedding, they had empty vases set up along the head table, so the bride's and bridesmaids' bouquets became the table centerpieces. It was really gorgeous.
