Tara: What's so bad about them coming here? Aren't they good guys? I mean, Watchers, that's just like whole other Gileses, right? Buffy: Yes! They're scary and horrible!

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

But her name is I think Keira something? Does that ring a bell?

Yeah, she's another aspiring writer that I know from both local events and Regency circles. My guess is that she's got your name confused with some writer or other.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Ha! Serenity x-post with Sophia!

We're gonna end up with Reavers, aren't we?

Looks like.

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

I love how DJ and Sophia come to the same conclusion. And yeah, just seems so wrong to me. I mean I love learning more and more about how the brain works, but I'm very leery of the trend towards cosmetic neurology.

I'm thinking it's more "hey, doc, I'm worried that my spouse is looking around... do have anything I can surreptitiously spray on his/her food so I don't have to go to all the trouble of talking about our issues?"

But doesn't that sound wildly illegal?

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

The one pictures looks a little like it would flop down over the ribbon on some people if not tied tight enough-- it looks like it is just satin

Actually, it's not floppy at all--quite stiff. The floppiest of the obis are the VS ones, but they're overlapped cummerbund style. Blackrabbit's belts are quite stiff taffeta-ish.

You may not be able to tell, but is the fabric itself stiff or is it fused to a stiffer interfacing?

This post from the unnecessary quotation marks blog is making me laugh, although it is the parentheses, not the quotation marks in which I find humor. (I am not going to make these to sell, but I might want to make myself one!)

hip deep in pie

I am cursing Sophia for linking to alight. So many pretty dresses and no money!

I think there are lots of Buffistas on my Facebook you might know list, but then the real name thing gets confusing to me.

I guessed she was a writer, I just couldn't figure out what would make me interesting to her. Hard to imagine mistaking my name for another's, but maybe she knows another Norah.

I think it's the fabric itself. I'll make sure to fondle it when I go home.

I googled the belt (lots of hits, weirdly) to see if I could find a explicit note, and found suggestions of how to wear it amongst other things. Maybe more pics will give you more info.

As I was googling my wardrobe, I was also googling my lunch and ordering a pickup at campusfood.com. If it were possible I'd be checking with the nearest pharmacy to see if they have my meds in stock, but NSM with the online possibility.

Dammit. Why not?
