Hmmph. I sent you a story of peril with a happy rescue ending, and it didn't pass muster. And now you're posting big cat dinnertime?
NO FAIR.
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Life isn't fair.
What was that story again?

Hmmph². Like I remember. Well, okay, it was the story of someone being rescued from a rape attempt. In a completely allergy-inducing way. Good stuff happens! Even if it starts out bad!

Oh yeah, it was pretty bad for a long time. Framing!

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.
Should I admit that I label every container with contents and date and keep a refrigerator inventory database with estimated expiration dates?
That is super impressive.
I am currently pleased with myself that I took something out of the freezer for dinner instead of buying crap. And it was labeled: Chili 5/11.
I've started writing the date on the pasta sauce label when I open a new jar. That's about as disciplined as I get with food tracking.
I also wrote on the label of the newest 500-count ibuprofen jar the date I opened it, because we go through those things WAY too fast, or at least it seems that way. So I decided to actually track it. We are the Sid and Nancy of ibuprofen.

Because books.
Do I have to be your nice filter? That would be so cool.
Everyone else just felt the world tilt, right?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Should I admit that I label every container with contents and date and keep a refrigerator inventory database with estimated expiration dates? So I can know without looking that the only things currently in my fridge are: half an onion that should have been eaten a week ago, 10 eggs, a stick of butter, and peanut butter.
OMG COME AND ORGANIZE MY FRIDGE.

Idris Elba
Speaking of Idris, as one does, I see he's going to be in a new series starting this very evening called... something... on BBCA. It looks good, too. A detective. A badass detective. Crap, what's it called. Luther. It's called Luther. I will be watching.
Tomato sauce is the one thing I'm pretty militant about. Two days after I open it, and toss. I must have read something somewhere.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Isn't Luther the second season?
