Wow, ita. That's fantastic.
Don't kill anyone if you don't have to. We're here to make a deal.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
ita! Who?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Um...P-C, I think I read more into it that I was supposed to. Or maybe I was just tired. But I actually truly think it's weightier than you're making it out to be.
Well...good, then! Because they always turn out less weighty than I intend.
And damn, ita, as usual.

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

I'm not much for the fateful, but it was certainly quite the moment.

Farrell? Firth? ComaBoy from Everwood ?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
The not-murderer. Not that ita's Colin particularly appreciates the homonymy.
I am surprised that so many of these fateful encounters are autobiographical -- it seems even moreso than other drabble topics. I cannot think of a single "fateful" encounter with a person that I recognized at the time, nor one I remember so clearly that I can describe it later.

No, it works for him. Keeps him familiar, without him having to go on Death Row.
I don't have that many (if any) fateful encounters. But I might not be in LA if I hadn't met him, so I can keep that one.
Every time I try and make up a fictional one, it seems overdone.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
One of mine was actually largely fictional. I took a feeling from one situation and spun it into another situation.
