Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

[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.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Well done, smonster. I'm sorry it's been so extremely hard to do, but dueling laptops with Vortex sounds like an excellent reward.

And Erin, that's FANTASTIC news! Felicitations to you and DAN! And prepare yourself for a trickle turning into a flood of corset suggestions.

eta: As per example. A little monochromatic, but such a cool bustled skirt, and you can easily tart it up with all the other colors.

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.

Good on you, smonster.

Sorry, I'm riding the vicodin train again.

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

It strikes me that in my world (if only because they're an info service originally run out of the Looniversity), DAN as an acronym stands for Diver's Action Network

... which, good on ya, Erin!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Come on ride that train... and ride it! (woo woo!)

You're welcome.

Thanks, y'all. I get a little shaky when I imagine his reaction, but at least I'm not experiencing it in real time.

Good Luck, smonster.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Oh, so hard smonster!!

JZ, thank you!! I'm going to be having a July wedding, so I'm looking for long-line corset, overbust, sweetheart.

Also, silver dancer's shoes, strappy, with Cuban heels.

And a floaty skirt, just at knee lengths. Looking in color family of moss, rose, pink, purple, silver.

Right now I'm thinking a simple bouquet of hyacinths wrapped in rose velvet ribbon, peacock feather boutoneirres (sp) for the boys, and that's as far as I've gotten.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Oh, smonster I`m so sorry. This has all been so hard. We all support you.

Erin, I love hearing about your plans for your outfit! It's going to be wonderful.

I am super thankful for everyone's support. I think I've gone through so much drama and tears during the previous attempts to end this relationship that I'm kind of tapped out. There will probably be a bit more when I resume communications, but for now I'm enjoying the quiet.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You can do it, smonster! {{smonster}}
