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

My skin on the floor isn't any grosser than any other skin on the floor or any other organic detritus--does it bother you more? Does a lopped off ponytail bother you?

When you pull hair out of a drain, it's dirty. If you pulled thread out of that drain, would it be any less nasty with the same gunk on it?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I don't mean in the pipes, I mean sitting on top of the drain barrier thing in the tub. It's just been rinsed clean with the rest of me/my hair.

Does a lopped off ponytail bother you?

Somehow that feels different and I don't know why!

But really, your skin is less gross than an onion skin?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Spleens are gross on the inside, too, sorry!

That's why I make it a point never to open a spleen.

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

Jesse, that is why Donnie Pfaster is the creepiest character on the X-files.

As long as it's not associated with pain getting there it's about the same as a chicken skin (which I consider a bit grosser than an onion skin--but they're the same category). There's nothing special about it having come from me, or a person I know, or a person. It's not a limb, it doesn't represent a deficit a pain, or anything. So, fine.

Maybe not the creepiest, but yes.

Because books.

Oh, come on, the family in Home were the creepiest X-Files characters ever!

My thought exactly! The first episode of tv I ever knew the title of.

I don't actually think you need to specify that particular TV series to be correct.

Health~ma to your sister, Burrell.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

There are probably some Criminal Minds characters that might rival.
