Oh no, Connie.
Wash: Mal, your dead army buddy's on the bridge! Zoe: He ain't dead. Wash: Oh.

[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.

Because books.
I'm so sorry, Connie. Sending you peace and strength.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I don't have anything more to say than what others already have, so I'm just gonna sit over here sending supportive vibes your way.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I am so sad right now Connie, but the image of you giving him his Viking send off is so beautiful.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
He was supposed to come home. He was supposed to beat this. I kept waiting for him to wake up. My last conversation was over a bad cell phone connection. Our 30-year conversation is done. But I promised him I'd be all right and I'd take care of myself. This is going to be so very hard.
He was supposed to. But you will get through this horrible time because you made each other strong. And the strength and love he gave you can be even stronger now. I am so sorry. Just so sorry.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Connie, there are no adequate words. You are a heroine for letting him go, and he is the legend he made of his life. But I'm so, so sorry for the parting. Peace to him, strength and comfort to you, and my deepest sympathies.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Oh, Connie. I'm weeping for you. We're here for you, anything we can do for you, we will.

Compassionately intolerant
I've been reading The Viking's fb page and am touched by the lovely stories of the young men he influenced through SCA and elsewise. He is so sincerely and deeply honored in their words, you get a sense of how much of an effect a noble, caring and passionate human can have on humanity.
What a wonderful legacy.
