I kissed him, and I told him that I loved him. And I killed him.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

Angry. Sad. They keep flipping back and forth. All, though, tinted with the awareness that, unlike some poor people who will never know what they've missed out on, I've had the blessing of a JZ in my life for as long as I have. I'm greedy. I want more. I'm furious that I don't get to have it, that none of us get to have it, that Hec and the rest of JZ's family doesn't get to have it. But I'm so fucking lucky to have had the time we've had, even if it's not enough.

I can't possibly say it any better than this. I keep trying to, but this. Exactly this.

And I love Nurse Renee. And you all.

Ugh. I was really hoping she’d have an easy and longer time of it than my mom. I hope they can help a bit and she can have/enjoy a few nice things soon.

Goddamn it. Nothing much to say beyond that.

Dammit. All the words I have right now are swear words. Love to all of you.

Just popping on the add my love and sorrow to the collective. I hope JZ is more comfortable now thanks to the ministrations of Nurse Renee and Hec, I hope you both are feeling all the Buffista love.

I love you guys and I'm so, so sorry.

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

All of this. All of it. What they all said. I'm flailing around and grasping for words because everything I can string together is so totally inadequate, except for the part where I love you both (and Nurse Renee) so fucking much.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I'm so sorry, David. All the ~ma I can send for you and JZ.

David, JZ, there’s not much I can add. Please, Universe, go easy on my frineds.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Well, fuck. Thank you Nurse Renee.
