Condolences, lisah and friend.
I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

lisah,
I'm sorry to hear that. just ugh.
was this a home invasion or something that occurred out in the street? I ask because is your friend in danger? maybe said friend needs to stay somewhere else for a bit if they got identifying/residential information.
Liese,
96 is such a long life, but it is sad you lost her long ago. Peace to both of you. Losing the last grandparent is hard.

Because books.
I'm sorry about the SO's grandmother, Liese. That's so hard. When my grandmother died last summer, she was the last of my grandparents, too.
Many condolences to Scrappy and Jason, too. I saw a notice about his death on Tumblr before I had any idea there was a connection, and he's really being mourned.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
he's really being mourned.
Yeah, a whole industry is shaken. It's a loss of a cherished person on top of the any talent consideration.

Tech document question: I'm writing a test strategy document, and some of the audience doesn't understand some of the acronyms--glossary goes at the beginning or the end? I can't really expand it in the text, since it's a label in a diagram.
Can you define the acronyms in the paragraph immediately after the diagram? If not, I'm used to the glossary going at the end.

Punishingly Intricate
It happened on the street in front of the inn owned by the man who was injured. It probably was basically random.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
That's just shocking. I'm very sorry for your friend, lisah.

Oh my goodness- I am so sorry for your friend, Lisah.
Also many condolences to you Liese.
And to Scrappy and Jason. From what I have seen from friends, clearly Uncle Joe's work was well loved by many people around the world.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That's just shocking. I'm very sorry for your friend, lisah.
What Billytea said.
Condolences to Liese and Scrappy and their SOs as well.
It's always sudden.
