This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

So being the queen of slash isn't a demonstrable talent?

Not something you can really demonstrate in a talent show, no. Watching me write porn on a cocktail napkin would be kind of boring for the audience, I think.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Is it wrong that I always think that's the sequel to that Buffy-speak book?

Not wrong at all.

You could always read it. Or you could do slash improv. Get the audience to generate two random character names for you, and then you could do the rest.

Well, I don't like public speaking and I'm not gifted at improv, and by "not gifted" I mean "dude, not enough caffeine in the world to make me good at this."

I have no idea who to invite, and frankly, I think half my friends will blow it off, anyway. It's the way of it.

I support you in email. And would in person if I could.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think it would have to be over IM, either projected on a screen or maybe with professional readers??

You know, Dana's really the slash queen. She turned me to the dark side, after all. I nominate her for the talent show! Knowing full well that she is on a boat and can't possibly kill me until next week.

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

You are inviting me and whatsisname, aren't you, Allyson?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

You think he'll come?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

What about me? Can I get an invite for me and Dude?
