Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Glad the pain is receding, Steph.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Is anybody else really tempted to Google "nazi quilt design" now? No? Just me? Oh well, we all knew I'm a little off.

Teppy, I'm glad that you got some relief. I hope those muscles do chill the fuck out and get over their trauma.

I've actually seen swastika quilts before, mostly from the 1920s or earlier, when it was considered a good luck symbol. [link] I also remember once seeing a photo of Jackie Kennedy as a little kid, wearing an outfit decorated with swastikas. edit: [link]

Now tagless for your comfort.

Teppy, I'm glad they could lessen the pain for you. I hope the full relief comes soon.

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

o_a, the pain relief isn't what I'd hoped for, but this is a diagnostic procedure as well as one to provide relief. So something should be deducible (deductable???) from the results either way.

Just not looking up or down without torso motion (moving my eyes to the edge of their range hurts my haid, stupidly enough).

Tep, here's to the dilaudid knocking you out the right way.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Good god, my ass BURNS at the injection site. That's an odd feeling.

But better than agonizing pain, so I call it a win.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

I remember shocking the nurse when I had back surgery because I was debating between the pain of the shot and the pain from the surgery.

The morphine from the pump gave me the itchies, and so they pumped in liquid Benadryl which I could FEEL going in, and god that was bizarro.

Tep, I hope the dilaudid makes you feel better.

So, question for the hivemind? How many people have received party favors when attending a baby shower?
