I feel I have so little to say. The words aren't coming yet, and so many others are wording better than I can right now.
Look out for each other and take care of yourselves, and love those around you.
Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Allyson, I don't think anyone is ever qualified to make that call.

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
So much love to you, Allyson, and Paula, Kristen, and Burrell. You were in no way inadequate yesterday. You performed a great service to ita and her family. One that is truly appreciated.

Our wings are not tired.
Thank you Allyson. I know how painful it is to type it all out, but it helps to know.
All of you, please take care of yourselves. Grief takes a toll in so many ways.

Guys, let us know if we want an ita thread. I think for now, we're OK in Natter, but we'll probably want something in the coming days.

Oh Allyson, oh Kristen, and oh, Paula, and everyone else who helped. I am so sorry. Thank you so much for doing this for her.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Thank you so much, Allyson. And Kristen and Paula and Burrell and Lori and Kat. I'm so sorry it had to be you, but so glad that it could be.
Ah fuck. Now I start crying. And I have to go into a meeting.

Allyson, I have nothing but stupid, useless words, but please take care of yourself.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Allyson, thank you. Both for everything you've done and will do for her family, and for giving us the story. I see no callous there, and I'm so grateful we all have you right now.

If I only had a brain...
Plei nailed it, Allyson. You do the best you can with what you've got to offer, and there is no good way to make the one call that nobody is ever ready to receive.
