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.

I was hoping against hope that JZ would have a different outcome than my uncle, but it’s been eerily the same once treatment stopped for the both of them. It’s so hard to watch them fade away when they were so vibrant before.
Thank you for sharing these moments with us, David. I hope you are feeling the love that surrounds you, JZ, and your families.
So weird to be hoping for a friend to leave us as soon as her body allows. I have been having morbid humor "ascend already!" thoughts for a week or so, and feeling guilty (but also like she'd be amused) right after.
Oh, man, I just got hit with the memory of JZ's solitary vigil with her father. Good thing I am WFH today. But I am so honored to be able to virtually do this little service for her that she cannot repay. I don't know why that's the thing that is setting off the tears but it is.
I'm still pissed that she won't get to see any more Our Flag Means Death. It's a stupid, small, heartbreaking thing.
Yes, when I saw news about the next season it made me so sad

When I saw the first S2 pictures the other day (last week?), I was so furious that she won't get to see it.
And I just saw a teaser trailer for OFMD S2 on Tumblr. Unfair, universe, really fucking unfair.
All the love coming your way, David, to you and Matilda and Emmett and everyone who loves JZ. I'm thinking of you all the time and hoping this final stage is mercifully brief.
It took 10 days for my mom to die once she reached this point. She was peaceful, unresponsive, and in no pain or distress, but her body just wasn't ready yet. It went on for so long and was so tense and sad and strange that when she finally did die and the hospice nurse came out to do whatever official things she had to do, I halfway expected her to turn to me and say, "You're not gonna believe this, but she's still here!" When I said that to her we both laughed, and it felt like I was finally able to let go of all that tension.
I'm still pissed that she won't get to see any more Our Flag Means Death.
Yes, absolutely.
We are all ready for her to be released. We are in no way ready for her to be gone.
Too many of us know this feeling. It means so much to be able to be with you here since we can't all be there to hold hands. It is impossible to predict how long it will take for her to be ready to leave, but she will when she is ready. The rest of us won't ever be ready for her to leave. Peaceful thoughts and love sent your way.
