Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

My doctor has scheduled me for an epidural tomorrow, in order to relax the muscles in my neck & shoulder.

I didn't realize they could do an epidural for neck/shoulder. Will you be numb from the neck down?

Because books.

I'm so sorry, Burrell. Strength to all of you.

Oh that sucks, Burrell. How awful.

I'm sure I would feel great if I went to a chiro and massage several times a week. Maybe if I win powerball. ;)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, Burrell, that sucks. I'm sorry.

Ann, that's a ferret.

All best wishes, Burrell and family.

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

Oh god, Burrell. All the strength in the world to you.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Burrell, I am so sorry. My thoughts are with you and your sister.

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

Burrell, I'm so sorry. I wish I had more to offer.

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

Jesse is liking me right now!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I don't know what happened! But I never saw the stuff you were tagging for Good Stuff. So I just found it all now.
