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.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

That's right! You tiara'd the first round, and Cindy the second. Or possibly she just freelance tiara'd me.

I kind of miss the tiara exchange.

What is even happening?

I think I missed the first round and got in on the second round. I got a tiara from Sean (which Julia has since confiscated) and sent one to you, JZ. t /natter

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Since Secret Santa assignments have gone out, it seems like a good time to suggest opening the end of year thread. Or are we waiting until December?

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

I am not condoning opening the new thread until the old one is closed. People need to make a break.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

In the past, the thread hasn't been opened until the 2nd week in December.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Ok. Good to know.

I know that it's been a point of contention, but I would suggest that it's time to close 2008.

Part of the recent vote was setting December 1st as a start date for GB and GR. I thought we'd agreed to close the old thread already, so I'm not sure about that.

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

I don't recall any decision being made about the old thread. The point was made that gifts were still ungifted, and conversation tailed off.

So December 1st is our official start date. We really need a page summarising vote results.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I'm all for closing the old thread. What do we need to do to reach a decision?

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

If I don't hear anything speaking for it in the next day I'll close it.
