Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good luck, Tom! How've you been handling the pain etc. over the past couple of days?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Tom, best of luck to you. Those are no fun.

Clearly, we need Godzilla to come fight the squid.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sometimes the pain meds work, sometimes they don't.

A hot shower or bath can give me some short-lived relief though.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Clearly, we need Godzilla to come fight the squid.

Another advantage of this strategy is that after Godzilla defeats the giant squid, he can eat it, thus solving the deceased giant squid disposal problem... although for this to work, Godzilla should probably be provided with a large supply of lemons.

I can't believe you had to wait two days for an appointment! That really sucks.

Tom, how do they plan to remove the stones? Ultrasound?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I am in New Jersey, but not near Seaside Heights. I had to learn about our giant squid attack from the tabloids. Hmpf. I'm never around when the fun stuff happens!

Good luck, Tom! Ouchie.

Ugh. Here's hoping for something more permanant.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Tom, that blows.

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

Oh, Tom. I got nothing but sympathy for you.
