Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

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

Hey, Steph, can I invite you to my sister's birthday party and you do that? It's a small gathering, so no pressure. A weekend, in Jamaica, September, about 8 complete strangers, and me. Uh, there will be a white person, if that helps. I don't know if he'll want a corset, though.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

All white people want corsets.

Wait. I don't think I was supposed to let that secret slip.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Also -- cross-fit is HARD CORE. Jesus.

Emmett is definitely more muscley than Jesus.

Emmett does not suffer from imposter syndrome. I have foolishly filled him to the brim with self confidence which is occasionally not warranted (he was very surprised to find out from his coach that he's not a particularly good singer).

For those who saw Legend of Korra, that scene where Bolin is talking about why Korra should date him? That's very Emmett.

"She's fun. I'm fun! She's funny. I'm hilarious. She's good looking. I'm GORGEOUS."

Emmett is Bolin pretty much.

Other people who don't suffer imposter syndrome: Phil, Gary.

Because books.

All white people want corsets.

No way! If I could get away with never wearing a bra again, I totally would.

I could put a document on an overhead projector and edit it really fast. Also, I can wiggle my nose.

*Trust* me, when I wore a corset to my cousin's trans* Hasidic second line furry wedding, it was clear what a racially charged issue a corset was.

The risk of not suffering imposter syndrome is of proving Dunning-Kruger right.

my cousin's trans* Hasidic second line furry wedding

best story ever. like my ex-nun gay recovering alcoholic ex-boss, instant conversation starter.

ION, I am organizing everything I can at work. I should probably actually get more to-do things out of my in-box though.

I hate that my boss is back on Wednesday. I hate my boss.
