Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Also I like it because it's part of mine. :)
It's my standard explanation for why I don't capitalise--my parent's gave me the arse end of a name. My actual reasons are lost in the mists of high school and come down to "Ita" looks really weird and I hates it now.
They gave my sister half a name too, but at least they gave her the identifying front end, instead of the generic suffix. So little thought went into naming me.
Jilli, Clovis would entirely love the story.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I did not cry. I suspect my heart is three sizes too small today.
I am consuming tasty dark chocolate in the hopes that it will help.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
She's not against crying, she's against Things Happening to Stuffed Animals. Which it does not.
Well, I'd prefer not to cry, but as long as Things Don't Happen to Stuffed Animals, I'm okay.
Hah. On a similar theme, can friends/people in my office please stop giving me dead dog books? I think I've got like three stuffed in my desk drawer. I'm not going to read them, okay? Not any time soon and quite possibly not at all.

Do they keep giving you Sounder? What's the thought process behind that?

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

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I did not cry. I suspect my heart is three sizes too small today.

I just had someone I don't think I know comment in my DW that it made her cry.

Progressive is offering me the cheapest quote, but they're underwritten by Homesite, and I'm seeing a lot of complaints about them.
Why is being an adult so difficult?
