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.

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

Jesse sounds like "if I have to shank him myself." is floating on the end of your pronouncement.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ha! Not at all -- it's just, he's old, so I can't imagine the sentence will end up shorter than the rest of his life, even if it's not actually "life in prison."

I suddenly feel the need to add "if I have to shank him myself" to the end of many of my sentences.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.

Hey, wait a minute, when did Salon's web site become readable?

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I want today's TeeFury shirt but I have no idea what their sizing is like

I can only speak to the mens mediums I buy for CJ - they run true to side with other mediums I've bought him.

I want to totally shank one of my favorite PMs. He is completely overworked and I'm trying to offload work from him but he is too busy to reply to my e-mails and he missed our standing Monday morning call. Dude, you are the PM of a high profile project. My name is all over it also and I can't do my job in a vacuum. ANSWER 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

Me too!

Honestly, I think I'm about ready to cry.

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

Timelies all!

Yay Maria!
