I am so ready to mute more than half of my FB friends' list. They are good people, who have been wonderful friends to me, but they WILL NOT SHUT THE HELL UP about the "assault on their right to own guns." I have no problem with the expression of their opinions, but when it's to the exclusion of everything else? It gets old.
Mal: You tell me right now, little Kaylee, you really think you can do this? Kaylee: Sure. Yeah. I think so. 'Sides, if I mess up, not like you'll be able to yell at me.

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

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Jesse, what are you finding problematic? I'm looking at this composition with a raised eyebrow:
friends with the ferocious animals and tribespeople of Namibia
So simple to fix...so simple. Even if they deserve the benefit of the doubt, I have to reread the sentence to give it to them, which is clumsy writing.

Our wings are not tired.
Crap, Scrappy. I am sorry to hear that news.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh shit, Scrappy! I'm so sorry!
Jesse, what are you finding problematic? I'm looking at this composition with a raised eyebrow:
That, plus she never sees children while being friends with the ferocious tribespeople? Also, I feel like there's something not good about acclimating wild animals to people, because they will probably get killed by the next person who gets that close. Also I hate "born in Africa," because presumably she was born somewhere specific. I would maybe mind less if it described her parents as European??

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I'm sorry, Scrappy.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I've been there 11 years. Still shellshocked, I gotta say. The owner wants to sell the company at some point, so I've been beginning to look around anyway. It could be worse.

Scrappy, I'm so sorry. Tons of job~ma to you.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Oh no, Scrappy!
