You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

Not playing with a full deck. I have a three!

I like this. Natter: They're not playing with a full deck. They have a three!

Or, you know, tighter.

I like these ones, too. Tighter? I don't know. Maybe just 'Not playing with a full deck. We have a three!"

Also, I keep thinking of the BtVS episode Angel (1.7) and the Master summoning The Three. Applicable quotes include:

I will send The Three (the Master)

The Three found me near the Bronze (Buffy)

He, he wouldn't send the, the Three for just anyone. (Giles)

Now, he knows you, he, he's faced the Three! (Giles)

Don't think I'm not grateful, you letting me kill the Three. (Darla)

I like He wouldn't send The Three for just anyone. Or possibly: We face The Three.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

I have read the words "the Three" so many times right now that they no longer make any sense. They're just a collection of t, h, r, and e s.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I vote for "Life and Times"

I have noticed another funky quote thing:

[transcript] I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's still whimpering [script] I'd best check on Wesley, see if he's still whimpering
Giles, 'Graduation Day (2)'

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

Done.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Gotta go with "Life and Times."

When can we change the description for Bitches to the previously-agreed-upon new one?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

What was agreed upon?

I'm almost completely sure this is the final version.
