Zoe has done the vomit and no appetite thing too. It freaks me out because normally she eats like she hasn't eaten in days. So ignoring food is very upsetting. And yet for no apparent reason it passes. Not fun.
Wash: Don't fall asleep now. Sleepiness is weakness of character. Ask anyone. You're acting captain. Know what happens you fall asleep now? Zoe: Jayne slits my throat, and takes over. Wash: That's right. Zoe: And we can't stop it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have never had consistent enough coverage to consider losing the land line. Sometimes it's brilliant, sometimes not. I'm not willing to take the risk of the power cuts either. I just like knowing it's there. Plus I call internationally, and my cell hasn't caught up with those charges.

Oh, yeah. After I read that, whenever Kato barfed, no matter how gross it was, I'd still say "I made food! I'm magic!"

I always just used an ACE bandage, but that might have been because we always had them on hand, since my brother and I were prone to jackassery (and the resulting injury).
Also elevate the ankle and ice it.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Ankle sprains are No Fun. Ice and elevation, as Steph says, are best. Also, ACE bandages are better than sleeve-type braces because you can adjust pressure as needed.
Question for the hivemind, on behalf of a young person for whom I am apparently a resource for questions his culturally straight and un-counter parents are unable to answer.
Is Edward, from Cowboy Bebop, transgender? Or merely ambiguously named? I had frankly not thought about it (I'm bad for accepting you're blue-and-pink striped unquestioningly, and moving on), and told him to decide what he thought and go with that. But I was sort of touched he'd even ask. So, those of you who are Bebop conversant, what say you?

Plus ibuprofen or something similar. The ankle I tweaked climbing a volcano finally started feeling better once I kept a brace on and took ibuprofen regularly.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
