Good soldiers take care of their rifles.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[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?"
I agree - I hate the sound of phrases like "The student should hand in their paper on..." Making the subject plural works slightly better for me, but not as well as using a singular pronoun.
My photographer friend Andy just posted his set of photos from the wedding, and they're really beautiful. Anyone who's not sick of the sight of me yet can see a few more here [link] !

Yeah I know about rephrasing,Ginger. But sometimes I want to say "A good soldier" and not "good soldiers".
x-post with Seska.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Yeah, sometimes you're just talking about one soldier. People have been using "they" like this for hundreds of years, and I don't see any magical solutions.

Yeah dropped out of fashion for some (not very good) reasons and is now coming back into fashion. The magical solution is to get used to it, but it will take me a bit of time.

I think that my favorite picture was the one at/after the civil ceremony where Seska is kissing The Girl's hand.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
I love the rubber duckies! And the seating chart!

Thanks! We did enormous amounts of work on that seating chart. In a 'let's not phone caterers - let's think of more table settings!' way.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
You both look lovely! That dress fit you just wonderfully, and your boobs look awesome! The gathering and shirring are very flattering.
TG is so lovely! It looks like such a lovely wedding and there are too many shots I love to detail.
