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

Spoilers:

Hec: When did Wesley get the Highlights of Existential Despair?

Ple: I think they come with the six-month refill of the Contact Lenses of Moral Ambiguity.

Allyson, Natter, on job-hunting:

Trying to work out how I heard that they were looking for a fundraiser. "So I was chatting about the tenderness of capybara hair and sneering as a metaphor for vampire homosexuality at a BtVS message board one Saturday morning, and someone mentioned you needed a new fundraiser."

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Caroma, in Angel Quotes, talking about non-spoilery ways to fine tune the show:

As for Gunn, the writers need to be tied down in front of a continuous playing of 'The Best Moments of Meldrick Lewis' from HOMICIDE, to see how to write a memorable, witty, brave, conflicted black man. They have a lot in common- -both from poor families, interested in justice, good teammates but not willing to put up with any dissing from the others, not too interested in what little rules they have to break to get there, decent and honorable and yet quite imperfect.

PMM in Smallville:

Time heals all wounds that are neither sucking nor chest.

From Natter:

Steph L: I have 4 rooms and a nomadic roach population.
Aimée: Do they use ants to move their stuff from room to room?
Steph L: I strongly suspect so.
Aimée: I think our ants use the dog. They tempt him with treats.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Context is for wimps.

JON B: I liked the blood, but I respect your concerns.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Shrift in Firefly:

Okay, ita is the third Death Star that was never built because leaning on her too hard will probably make her "accidentally" break your nose, and she'd shishkabob the Ewoks, and "Death Star" is too cool a name to waste on shoddy empire contract work.

If I only had a brain...

Noumenon in Firefly:

OH MY GOD! ita is a moon on one of Tim Minear's shows! She's DOOMED! This is gonna be worse than Alderaan!

(this should be the prefix to the above.)

And to make it a trilogy, right after Hec's quote:

DXMachina: That's what happens when you always go with the low bidder.
Madrigal Costello: I can just see all those Imperial workers slacking off, spending their days nattering online about whatever passed for Buffy in their day, since it was a very long time ago, I suspect they had a primitive version of the show.

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

And MM with the follow up...

Something like "B'oofah the Jedi Slayer".

And the nattering would be something like. "I can't believe Jo'ss is having B'oofah sleep with that soulless Jedi. That's so lame. What about Anjell? B'oofahnAnjell4rceEvah!!!!11!!!!"
