[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.

Oh, Windsparrow, how hard. Good on you for handling the situation, and definitely give yourself space to react.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I'm glad you got things managed, Andi, and got to a place where you could have your own reaction without impacting anybody's care. I hope you feel steadier soon.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Windsparrow, oh my gosh. Major adrenaline dump aftereffects, I'm sure.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
Sounds like you did wonderfully, Andi. I hope you can get space and rest and time to yourself now.

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.
Thanks, everybody. Starting to unjangle.

Yep, sounds par for the course. Pros freak at home, stay cool on the job. Good on you, Andi.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
Andi, how wonderful for the patient that you were there to provide such fantastic support and information. May your evening be full of unwinding. Those adrenaline dumps can be powerful things.
