Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Yeah. I stopped saying to Tom that I wanted a red-haired baby girl and started with the dog thing just the other day. Somehow he's much more receptive to it than before!

See, and that's another reason I can't have a baby- I'm WAY too specific about what attributes I desire. That's just... accessorizing, innit?

The best defense for dealing with commitmentphobes is to remember that whatever is causing their fear (and we all have plenty of that) is not about you

Heh. Well, in this case *I* would be the committmentphobe (I've never dated anyone for more than about eight months, and that was a long-distance relationship. And I should've broken up with her about three months before I did...). She's the one who's been married three times!!!

Funnily enough Cashmere, I can say the same. Once I had a place to put all that neurosis and love I had, a particular calmness came over me.

Always Anti-fascist!

I did that to somebody...he took it very personally. I was too blunt. But if I had it to do over(or with somebody else) I wouldn't let him date fucking April and then meet the real me when we break up.

Ah, total misread on my part...but the thought is the same, just reverse it!

re: biological clock.

Kittens. I hear a little kitten mew, and my ovaries go kerplunk. Babies--I check to see if there's someone around with custody and I go the other way.

Yes, I'm odd.

Same here. Pete is the only thing standing between me and crazy cat lady-dom.

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

You can bet how you want, but I have the inside info.

But I do know a lot about you, ita. I know that you bristle when anybody tries to define you (to cite a completely random example). I don't claim the inside information, but I feel like I have enough outside information to place a bet.

If, for example, I was in a circumstance where I had to leave Emmett in somebody's care and the choice was between you and Random Bystander, I wouldn't hesitate to choose you. I'd even feel fairly confident in that choice.

You may well refuse that obligation, but I'm only talking about how I'd choose in that situation.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Ozzie's that thing for me.
