I'm finding being imaginary quite liberating, actually
It is all sorts of fun, being fictional.
Let me guess. We're in a hurry.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: Madison, WI from June 20-22 2008! Official website.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
It is. Solves all sorts of dillemas.
Aside to Jilli: Thessaly was all sorts of excited at the prospect of doing the Salem Witch House with you, if things end up there.

Doesn't it? Reacting to problems not with "Ohgodohgod, what should I do?!" but with "So, what would move the plot along?" is much more satisfying.
Oooh, Salem Witch House.

I've not been yet, but it's one of her favorite things. Evidently terribly,wonderfully over the top with a giant red pentegram on the floor of the living room.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I've met Victor, so he's not imaginary. I've also met Thessaly and can report that she's (a) sexy (b) brilliant (c) made of talent and (d) has excellent taste in coiffeur.

Am I misremembering, or weren't Victor and Thessaly at Kristin's CT send off? In which case, numerous Buffistas can attest to their not-imaginaryness.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
As if physical reality were any indicator or not of imaginary-ness pft.

The status is NOT quo.
Having met Victor, I can say for certain that he is definitely not real. He's pretty cool for an imaginary friend, though.
My tongue was very much in cheek. I've spent a ton of time with Victor and Lea and adore them in all their reality.
ETA:

This! This was what I was getting at.

This is an excellent idea. I shall be adopting this strategy.

As we adore you.
I've met a surprising amount of Buffistas for a hermitlike, workaholic imaginary person who doesn't get out much.
