Oh, no, Consuela. Such avoidable stupidity! Argh.
I've been out of the abbey two days, I've beaten a lawman senseless, I've fallen in with criminals. I watched the captain shoot the man I swore to protect. And I'm not even sure if I think he was wrong.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Let me add my argh to the others, Suela.

Are you sure you want to work for them, they kinda sound too stupid to live, much less deserve you.
Today, I tend to agree, although the manager who explained it all was very very apologetic. He might have promised me beer. Although I think at this point I deserve a couple bottles of really good wine, or some 20-year Oban.
They've had three years to get this fixed, and they waited until the Very. Last. Minute.
But hey, the other guy in my position? They fucked it up so bad that he didn't make the hiring list at all and he's out of a job. With no warning.

Geez Louise, Consuela. I'm no good at smiting people creatively, but they surely deserve it.

Or large bags of money.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I'm sorry, Suela. How terribly stressful. I hope they mop up as best they can and get your job straightened out soon.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Or large bags of money.
AND large bags of money.
Sorry Suela, that blows.

I finally took all the ornaments off the tree! I am a dawdler. I dawdled getting the tree up, now I'm dawdling getting it down. But hey, almost halfway there.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Epiphany already happened, people. Get with the program.
Consuela, that's massive kerfuckery. I don't even.
I have not made as much progress on this doc as I'd wanted. I've made progress on other shit, just not this.
