Oh god, msbelle.
Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oh, hon, I'm so sorry. All possible vibes to all of you. And, as traumatic as the move has been and as awful as the awful out-of-control times are, I'm still so glad that you did it and you have the support and the presence of your family close at hand all the time, not just on the handful of weekends when they and you can manage to work it out.

Therapy tomorrow. Now we all sleep.

Our wings are not tired.
Peaceful sleep to you and yours, msbelle. All manner of calming thoughts and prayers headed your way.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Sleep well, msbelle. I'm glad you have your family around you right now.

Both are heartbreaking. His self-awareness, as painful as it is, is such a step.
Sleep a peaceful sleep, may it bring everyone a lot of composure.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Sorry msbelle, mac, and grandma. I think some day you all will win this battle. Despite the fact that this is so far out of my world mac seems to be figuring out that he really doesn't like this sooner than before. You all are in my heart and I'm sending you strengh
