Oh, ChiKat. I am so very sorry. I know how much you love him, and how much he loved you. Peace and rest and strength to you. {{ChiKat}}

[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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
ChiKat, I'm so sorry. But I'm glad you got to say goodbye, got to make the best (although sad) decision.

Chikat, I'm so, so sorry to hear of Mikey's passing. Such a great love...such a great loss.
I hope your heart heals well, however long that takes.
Tomorrow is two months since Bartleby died. I remember, in crushing detail, just how that first day felt and I just wish I could somehow ease that pain for you.
Blessings on his sweet soul.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Sending good thoughts out to you, too, bonny, and to Bartleby's memory and his gentlemanly spirit.
And I've been thinking of Maria and Rob and all the people who love and loved each and both of them dearly, all day.

I'm so sorry, ChiKat. It's so hard saying good-bye, even when you know it's time.

Maria knew today that there were many hidden faces from here behind the five of us physically present today. The room was filled to overflowing even the overflow room, so many people came. He touched a lot of lives.

The agent has gotten back to us with a counter offer and we have counter offered again. I have no idea what to do with this level of efficiency.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I have no idea what to do with this level of efficiency.
I recommend enjoying it - you've earned it after the last clusterfuck.

Thinking of you, Maria.
sj, I like the new house possibility. All those big windows and wooden floors make it look light and sleek. I hope it comes through for you.
