Ah yes! That twist (er, and the handcuffs) was what moved me to commit fic.
Good luck. Try not to kill people. Hands! Hands!

Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Very much yes to the handcuffs.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Salon tipping etiquette: I know that if the owner is performing the waxing/haircut/whatever, you don't tip.
What do you do when the owner is also your friend? She's still the owner, and therefore I wouldn't normally tip. And then, it seems weird to give a friend a monetary gratuity.
Tip: yes/no? Bring her a shell ashtray from vacation?

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Steph, I tipped, FWIW (when I was having my hair cut by the owner). I figure everyone needs money.

I just don't know if it's tacky to tip one's friend.

Maybe a gift card? they seem less, um, crass than cash, but still spend-able.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Steph, my friend isn't the owner of her salon, but I still tip her.

Steph, I'd stick with the rule about not tipping owners, if that's what you'd do if she wasn't a friend, and bring her the tchotchke.
