Coding and Sleeping

That won't so much result in a kerfluffle as in people clucking at you in sympathy and edging away.

I always thought Willow's hair was a good kerfluffle seed, dang. Did I just pick the wrong season? I can't really remember the hair evolution sequence.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

GA, I think that once she saw Mere and Izzy in there, she should have either asked if she cuold have some privacy or gone back to George's room. Hell, I've been married for 4 years, and I won't let Joe anywhere NEAR the bathroom if I'm in there. And he saw me have a baby. I also think she was somewhat reasonable in her, "Stick up for me."; Not sticking up for her kind of condones their behavior. I think Izzy was being a complete COW. There's a bit of insecurity on Callie's part - she's so completely different from Mere and Izzy and George lives with them AND had/has a thing for Mere. For me, that makes her more sympathetic [cue bad high school issues blah blah blah]. But I can totally see the pathetic part.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

The girls who go into a single toilet bathroom together don't generally level a surly glare at each other while sitting on said toilet. Or pick asking for space at the sink as the dealbreaker that makes them leave an uncomfortable situation. Then again, I called Crazy before we found out she was living in the boiler room—to me, that just made sense in terms of convenience should George get a pet bunny .

Aimee, I think that you're right about Izzy. It was unnecessary.

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

I've read that it's supposed to be a conflict rooted in high school cliques vs. the fat girl. But when the fat girl is a) not that fat--did you scope that butt? and b) acting really weird, I don't have the requisite sympathy. She wasn't mockable before she peed and decided not to wash her hands in front of them. She made that situation, and I think that Mere and Izzie's initial reaction was pretty reasonable, although they took the thing a bit far. As for the "stand up for me" request-- what if he believed she hadn't washed her hands? Is he supposed to stand up for her then? Or is it about believing that she must have washed her hands because she wouldn't to that? But what is reasonable behaviour for someone who lives in the basement of the hospital?

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

Much recovery-ma to your aunt, Theo.

ita, re: tea... I always understood tea to be a diuretic, though to be fair I don't know if that's because of the caffiene content or just because of the tea itself.

This post has little value, so I will pad it by saying that I'm having an orange AIFG.

See, I don't think it was so much a "Stick up for me cause I DID wash my hands." than, "Hey, guy. Your friends are being assholes, and I'm letting you put it to me on a nightly basis. Say something." And I agree that she did create the situation by not being more assertive with them, but she is kinda the odd girl out. And also? Damn! that was a nice ass. WAY better than Izzy and Mere's flat things. Wish my ass looked like that in tanga panties.
