Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

lori and ita DID get a little scary with the rifle that time....

UNLOADED.

Plus, I can totally kill with my bare hands.

FWIW.

HOW DID WE KNOW.

And I figured I'd have to piss you off in scrabble or something for you to try to kill me with your bare hands...

FWIW, never play UNO with me.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

My mom loves my "Buffy friends." She's met quite a few of them and loves our friendships.

Heh. My mom has met Buffistas WITHOUT ME (Trudy and megan walker were in Vermont the same time as my mom and stepdad, and they all met up at my bro's restaurant).

(If anyone else has met my mom without me also being there, please speak up now.)

Our wings are not tired.

I haven't met your mom, Teppy, but my cousin Buffy (and her wife) has met vwbug and I haven't yet.

And now for a totally different topic -- just so I'm sure I understand the meaning of the term, "code-switching" is using more than one language in the same sentence/conversation, and using the languages such that they're grammatically and syntactically correct?

Like, "I was not avec Trudy and megan when they met my mom" -- is *that* code-switching?

It's still so weird to me that you were in my city while I was here -- and the location you were at was less than 10 minutes from my apartment, but since it was a day I could NOT leave the office under pain of firing, and my office is ~25 minutes away, we couldn't meet up.

That still kills me.

My sister hung out with Alibelle in the UK. She was all pissed because I hadn't told Ali her name. Except she was calling Ali her real name, and I had no idea who she was talking about, since I call Ali Ali to her face too.

I have no fucking idea how I hooked those two up together, if I couldn't introduce them to each other.

My sister has also dated other internet people I've introduced her to, so she's pretty okay with me socialising this way. Pays off for her.

FWIW, never play UNO with me.

Duly noted.

It was your birthday! And you were having lunch with your dad, I think. It was funny.

I think you should love me forever for sending you a gift certificate to Graeters, despite not seeing you that day!!!

I call Alibelle by her real name most times, but in my phone she's still Alibelle (also, she went to the Eclipse premiere.... please to mock her now).

Sara, did I mention that this year we have the entire week of thanksgiving off due to furloughs?
