My heart hurts. We fought yesterday, badly. I'm afraid I caused this--too much stress on him.

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.

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

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh honey no. I'm sorry you fought, but you did not cause this.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
NO YOU DID NOT.
Sorry. I don't mean to shout, Maria. I just mean to mean it.
Don't don't don't possess yourself with that thought. These things are beyond our individual control like this, honestly, love. Please.

Oh, honey, no. ita is so very right about that.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
You had absolutely no hand in this. It's always sudden.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Marriages have arguments. This wasn't your fault.
Sometimes awful things happen. But it's not your fault. I truly don't believe that.

History is a bitch. Woulda, coulda, shoulda. Please tell your people that you love them.

The status is NOT quo.
Maria, love, please listen to these wise people. Fights happen. This has nothing to do with that. And I know that a severe trauma like you've had today can cause those horrible after images, so I want to echo everyone else in saying that taking an anti-anxiety/sedative is not a bad idea if you have one available. The most likely side effect is drowsiness, but mostly they just put a bottom on the pain spiral for a little bit. If you don't or you don't want to, of course that's okay too. You aren't alone. We love you.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I'm afraid I caused this--too much stress on him.
Bullshit. Seriously, I've met you. You're not that aggravating.
