What Vortex said.
Willow: Yes. Hi. You must be Angel's handsome, yet androgynous, son. Connor: It's Connor. Willow: And the sneer's genetic. Who knew?

[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.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
Thanks. And, eh. It's not so bad, compared to many many people's lives. I just wasn't built for the family I'm marrying into (y'know - if they let me get to the fucking altar. I honestly think their not-quite-unconscious goal is to split us up well before that can happen).

I wish I had better help to offer. I hope The Girl has your back though, in whatever form that takes.

I'm so sorry honey. Please remember that THIS family loves you and we are so much cooler than them.

Heh. Wouldn't be difficult - but yes, you totally are.

We'll be working on that once we both calm down.

Ah. Sorry. It can be really difficult. We're always here if you need to let it out.

The status is NOT quo.
Oh Seska. Many hugs. Evil in-laws (I'm inferring?) are not stronger than you and the Girl, though, never forget.

{{{Daisy and Daisy's friends}}} I'm so sorry. What an awful thing to have happen.
{{{Seska}}} Good luck with the soon to be in-laws.

“Not dead yet!”
I'm dreading the first set of them I have to buy, most likely later this year.
Yeah... it was painful. What really frosts me is if I'd known a little more about their particular idiosyncrasies, I might have been able to work a few more thousand miles out of them-- certainly a lot closer to their projected mileage than what I got. Fucking southern service guys, who don't bother telling the little woman about those pesky details. I JUST had it in at 14K miles for the stem to stern checkup and you'd think they might have said something then.
I hate feeling like such a stereotype.
Eh, it's a First World whine. I do love my car to pieces.

What all the wise folks said, especially about the fact that this family is so much cooler.
