ION, I have to confess that I just sent my first text message that consisted solely of the letter K.
Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Did you figure out his real name, Hil?
The Gus persona was remarkably consistent. I'll give him props for that. I would still like to know why.
I loved Allyson from the beginning. My favorite people are the ones who say openly that the emperor has no clothes, plus Allyson gets extra added snark points.
(I got another fatal error posting this. I've gotten quite a few in the last week. Anyone else?")

I'm on my phone, so I can't link to it, but search for "Kung Fu vs Yoga" on YouTube. It's hilarious.

Isn't anyone else tired of the Gus talk?

Not me! At least, not when there are new articles coming out in major media outlets with new semi-true stories about us in them.

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

Maybe he just wanted to be liked? And after a few years of pretending, he decided that hoodwinking the community that had welcomed him was not fair, so he, er, retired the Gus persona. In the most dramatic way possible.
I don't think he did it for malicious reasons or because he liked fooling people and was secretly laughing at us the whole time. It may have been something that got out of control, and he thought killing Gus off was the only way out of the lie.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Isn't anyone else tired of the Gus talk?
Not me either. Interesting to have the truthiness come out.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Isn't anyone else tired of the Gus talk?
Probably not the people still talking, unless they've got some masochism going on.

Not even OK? Oyveh.

Ginger, I've had a look at the logs, and I can't figure anything out--I'm not ignoring you. I'm just bewildered.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I'm not sure there's gonna be a day I won't be interested in the LA Times reporting on us and interviewing a character who claimed to be dead. Maybe that's just me. But I doubt it.
