When I was in college and severely depressed, I honestly had no clue what was wrong with me. I ended up reading a checklist of depression symptoms in a Reader's Digest, and, as silly as it may sound, it was a huge wake up call and a relief to finally know what was wrong with me. And, even then it took me a while to seek real help. Maybe some sort of check list on depression symptoms with a list of services given to the kid might help, especially if there can be some sort of follow up by someone in authority? Just a suggestion.

[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.

Re Em's future world domination - MM, you may find yourself permanently deprived of kisses (Hershey's and any other kind). That kind of evil doesn't take well to being thwarted.

or, you know, "Loyal Minion" might work. I should know, I do run a fanblog.

"Minion Father," like Queen Mother.
Or Minion Daddy, depending on how young she is when she achieves a death ray.

It's a chance I'll have to take. Otherwise, Em may end up being a second- or third-rate villain like Captain Boomerang, and I just couldn't take the disappointment.
Remember: The children are our future. Granted, it may be a dismal and dark future under the cruelly oppressive thumb of an evil despot...but at least this despot is a cutie-pie.

Maybe we should keep Em and Clovis away from each other.

well, that's more than we can say for the last despot we had.
