Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I have no words. This is...fuck, too many words, actually. Unreal. RIP, ita. I'm glad you're not in pain any more. You'll be so, so, so missed.

Oh man. Oh. Fuck. I'm crying in my hotel room bed. Got in late last night and zonked out and was checking email...and suddenly saw this "buffistas must check in" thing. And you know my first though was that there'd been some sort of new horrible terrorism? It didn't cross my mind that it could be anything like this. Fuck.

Nilly, you made me cry and want hugs.

And I'm so glad to see all the old folks but so so fucking mad for the reason.

Where do we go from here?

If I only had a brain...

There are a lot of great poems about death. The obvious fitting one is the Edna St. Vincent Millay one that ends "I know. But I do not approve. And I am not resigned." Which, no, I'm not, and I never will be.

But somehow this e. e. cummings one particularly works for me, for the glory that was ita. [praying that pre is one of the HTML tags we let through, because cummings]

I so wanted ita to have a chance to be ita again.

Yes, in all - in the lack of a better word - technical, "outside" terms, in terms of what can be actively done and take place.

But, to me, in my eyes, in her spirit and heart and soul, the way she dealt with an such an unbelievably impossible situation, and dealt with it with such strangth, courage, grace and fierceness - she kravved the hell out of that aweful hand the universe had dealt her. She's a total hero.

And now I'm crying again.

I don't know what to do. I just gave Mr Peabody a dog biscuit for no reason.
