To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

If I only had a brain...

Nutty, on Inara (nonspoiler):

She's the only one on the ship who isn't avowedly cracked up who doesn't wear pants. She doesn't even wear short skirts with practical shoes. She's like, striding around Serenity as if it were Kublai Khan's palace, laden with ten yards of crushed velvet. She's gonna be a total drag when the fighting and the running away have to happen. Because, hello, she needs a whole nother cast member to help her carry her skirts.

ita, she's not in Rome. I think we've established she's either the Abe Vigoda of whoredom, or she just doesn't have the technique to make it on worlds where the height of fashion isn't the bonnet. So (a) she'll be a bit second-rate and (b) there will necessarily be fighting and running away.

Oh, come on. I'd love her if she were a whorish Annie Oakley. Rather than, currently, a whorish Morgaine of Mythical England.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Um, everyone look spiffy and act natural.

Victor begins running around with a machete, but is ignored by Trudy and PMM, who are busily handcuffing a vampire and broody ex-watcher in the corner. Miracleman sets something on fire, and Ita battles a band of ninjas...

Allyson, are SURE that request was a good idea?

Allyson re: Polgara's visit, Victor re: Our natural state.

Sea foam is dead mermaids! A world of Ewww. All those sex on the beach thoughts are now tainted.

msbelle, natter, re:politics:

Torricelli is dropping out of the NJ Senate race. I'm sure most people know by now. What I don't get is..Who the HELL is running the Democratic Party? Monkeys? Dumb Monkeys? Dumb Meek Monkeys who are taking payoff bananas from the other party leaders?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Madrigal, in Buffy:

To me an ocean is a lot like in the inside of an animal, yeah, full of cool stuff, and interesting to put your hands in, but there are limits.

Thanks for all the fish.

Aimee: I had to explain a strap-on to my boss. She thought that...um... dildoes were placed on the erect penis. I had to demonstrate using a pen and a rubber band. She had no idea.

Miracleman: Aimee - Ask. For. A. Raise.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Cindy: When any such Buffista deigns to post anywhere but Buffistaville, said Buffista ought to greeted by a flower-bearer who is tossing rose petals on the Buffista's path and leading the Buffista to a throne; bestowing a crown and scepter to the Buffista; and commanding scantily-clad dancers to entertain the Buffista. Meanwhile the Buffista should be offered a tempting repast to provide the sustenance necessary to fortify a writer of Buffista-grade posts. When the Buffista actually posts, a per-word gratuity (with bonus-system structured around porn references that can by-pass any board's censors and most of the idiots) should be automatically paid to said Buffista. It would be a better internet. It would be a better world.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Damn, s.a., you beat me to it.

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