Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Is that still a thing? I didn't pay attention beyond the pilot.

They're burning it off on Saturday nights. It's not very good, but I kind of enjoy it.

That sounds like several days, yeah.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Goodness, aurelia! That's a lot.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Another scorcher here in Baltimore.

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

Which of these is best for Lana:

She is wearing a ponytail, which might mean the long one is best, but most of the cosplayers I've looked at haven't copied the ponytail part.

I think the first one. Her hair's half-up, right?

I just took two leftover salads (one lettuce, one farro) and mixed them together for lunch, and a thing I will give the CSA veg is that it lasts FOREVER. When stored properly. This lettuce is at least two weeks old.

In a ponytail. But I don't know if the headband comes off, so that one might be eliminated for that reason.

I don't think it's all up in a ponytail: [link] [link]
