Shh, don't tell anyone, she's my favorite.
Well, duh! She's my favorite too and I didn't even know she existed until one minute ago.
Bar maid! Bring me stronger ale! And some plump, succulent babies to eat!

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Bonny - so sorry for your loss. You did everything you could to save Bartleby, and let him go rather than letting him suffer past his time. He will live in your heart forever.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
So sorry, Bonny. You gave him such love and joy his whole life and you kept giving right to the end. Please take care of yourself and let those close to you take care of you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Bonny, you did exactly the best thing, and you did it for him. You are not going to feel much else other than sorrow and grief for the next while, but you should feel proud that you lived up to your responsibility as a pet owner and treated him humanely. And that is what he wanted from you. For you to be the best owner you could be.

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.
One of my crew wore her Jayne hat today, just for me. Shh, don't tell anyone, she's my favorite.
Woman walks onto a work site wearing a hat like that, everybody knows she ain't afraid of nothing.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Exactly, WS!
Well, duh! She's my favorite too and I didn't even know she existed until one minute ago.
Puppy Boy is also a big geek and Firefly fan, but she's stepping up as a leader, is hella funny, and wears funky socks. So she wins.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
bonny, I am so sorry for your loss. You may have been blessed with Bartleby in your life, but I can certainly see that he was so damn lucky to have you, too. You did whatever was needed to take care of him. Please take care of yourself while you grieve. Much strength and peace to you.

Always Anti-fascist!
So sorry, Bonny. I know if I could have given my late dog a bit of my pancreas, I absolutely would have, so I know how you feel. (Also, you put my tech gripe I was about to have into some perspective.)

The status is NOT quo.
Bonny, love is terrible at times like this, because we love them so much that we don't want to lose them, and we love them too much to have them live in pain and misery. But we love you too.
Connie said this so beautifully. Bonny, having just been through this a week ago, I truly understand how you are feeling. You did the right thing. It still sucks, and fuck cancer from here to the moon.
Much love.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Bonny, I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my beloved Domino 3 months ago yesterday, and while the grief is still there, it is lessened. I hope you are comforted by the memories that will remain with you forever, and by the knowledge that you always did your very best for him. I wish you peace and healing. {{{bonny}}}
