I can see them now, Nilly.
Buffy: So how'd she get away with the bad mojo stuff? Anya: Giles sold it to her. Giles: Well, I didn't know it was her. I mean, how could I? If it's any consolation, I may have overcharged her.

I can see them now. Great photos, Nilly. Thanks for sharing.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I met her for a hot second at the LA F2F, because she was surrounded, and exhausted from a belt test. But we emailed, and....oh, god, I don't know what to say.
I expected to meet her again for longer one day. Maybe go to Jamaica with her.
I'll be signing up for a krav class, too. Because she made me want to.

I'm so glad everyone is posting and I hate the reason for it.
This. I'm smiling and laughing till I remember the reason for this thread, these stories. Oh, ita.
Thank you for all of sharing the stories and posting here.

RIP ita. Just read the news (was wondering why Natter had exploded with posts; never thought it would be this).
Can't process at the moment.

Thrive to spite them
I've been a mess all day. I called in late at work and got there and just. I tried to explain the relationship and went with friend. Which isn't really accurate. I mean there's no word for "a person who you've met online, but never in person, and interact with in some way on an almost daily basis and has had a profound impact on your life."
That's who she is.
I found her intimidating at times. She was passionate and fierce and challenging but she wasn't an unkind person. It took me a long time to realize the challenging was who she was and it wasn't done out of unkindness.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
