ChiCat: Wacky gothmothers are necessary. As are kinky grandmothers and aunts who like renting children.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Holli in Literary:
You know, the older I get, the more I find that "geek=pyromaniac" is something that holds true everywhere.

Ah heck, I'm COMMing the lot.
Katie M: It took me literally years before I figured out that English kids didn't just have a strange penchant for exploring dark places with flaming pieces of wood. Finding out that "torch" is English for "flashlight" was one of the great revelatory experiences of my childhood.
Amych: I dunno -- I found it kind of disappointing, but that may just be because I spent all those years fantasizing about being allowed to play with open flames myself.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Leigh, in Natter, on movies made in the 1960s:
Lord, I'm feeling young. Like a zygote. Only with typing skills.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Aimee, in Bitches:
<tiptoes in>
....and The Bitches slept. And dreamed beautiful dreams, dreams of elves and boys in make-up and fic and slash and slashable fic and all that made them happy. For The Bitches are the bless-ed Buffistas. Where things can be shared and love given and support had and any kind of -ma sent your way so that only good things happen in life. And when there is sadness or money problems or spouses on the fritz or cramps, The Bitches are there. And when right wins over wrong, and justice has overpowered injustice, The Bitches are there. And when fashion sense goes awry, and someone wears something bad, The Bitches are there. And when evil landlords or bad jobs or shitty-exes rear their heads, The Bitches are there. And when Lush is slow on the shipment, or Amazon has lied about sending the new HP, The Bitches are there. The Bitches are everywhere. We're in your neighborhoods, in your schools, and in your livejournals. We embody all that is good and porny.
So sleep, Bitches. And dream of the good that will be done tomorrow. And the lives that are vibed, and the souls that are hugged, and the bastards we shall smite. Dream on, Bitches. Dream on.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I don't know, maybe it's crude, but I have to COMM this....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Susan W. in Buffy/Angel Spoilers, spoilery for Buffy 7.22:
Someday, five or ten years from now, when she's cookies, she's going to meet a nice man with a pulse to settle down with. I'm calling him Guillermo, because in the Jossverse, you can get away from vampires, but you can't get away from Williams.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Susan W, in spoilers (spoilery for S7, no NAFDA spoilers)
S/B 'shipper that I am, I'm entirely convinced of two things:
1. She loved them both, in different ways. Love is complicated.
2. Someday, five or ten years from now, when she's cookies, she's going to meet a nice man with a pulse to settle down with. I'm calling him Guillermo, because in the Jossverse, you can get away from vampires, but you can't get away from Williams.
