There are so many people here I haven't seen in over a decade. Everyone looks awesome
But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

Natter 78: I might need to watch some Buffy for inspiration
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.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Nora and I are watching, we missed the first bit. Everyone looks so great. The stories are so lovely. It is amazing to see beloved people talk live that I haven’t for years. Everyone so is perfectly themself.
Plei, tell Tickybox the vest looked great.

I don't know why I spend so much time trying to anticipate how I'll feel about things. I'm not right very often. It was a lot of emotion for me...I didn't handle it very...neatly, I guess. But I'm glad I did get to share my feeling with JZ, before.

Thrive to spite them
I watched as much as I could live. I was up at Mom's because E was visiting... I actually ended up sitting on the couch watching with my earbuds on surrounded by my family and confusing them when I occasionally laughed out loud. They understood the tears more.
But then I had to say good bye and we had to come home (and there is spotty internet connection on the way home). When I checked in again Matilda was speaking. I'm going to watch the rest later. Matilda is very much the child of her parents.

Nora and I went back and watched the slide show. David had just started talking when we had to leave for dinner. I assembled a JZ-inspired outfit in a few minutes to wear in her honor.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.
It was lovely to see everyone; I'm sorry that I'm having to skip dinner, but my brain is just *done*.
I got to hug Emmett but did not get a chance to introduce myself to EM. I was very, very glad she was there, though.
Too many feelings to process right now, but I'm ok. It's just been a lot.

I'm sorry that I couldn't be there in more than spirit(Also tired of saying that every couple of days about something...feel like a futurama head in a jar behind that.) But I had messy feels, better you didn't see that, I think.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
It was so lovely, and so good to see so many of my favorite faces. Thanks so much for organizing the livestream, David.

I just finished watching the whole gathering, and it was just beautiful. Thank you to Lukas for making that livestream happen, David.
And seeing everyone's faces is amazing.

I was so glad he was able to pull it together. At some point while I was putting together the collage boards of pictures my brain just glazed over. "I don't even know what I'm doing anymore!" Just lost in the weeds of all the details.
But everything came together. It was really so lovely.
And seeing everyone's faces is amazing.
There was a strange parallel element to the event where it was a Memorial for Jacqueline and at the same time a Buffista F2F and I hadn't seen so many people for 5+ years.
So I managed to catch up with that element at the dinner after that Juliana organized. And that was concentrated Buffista fun.
But now I'm exhausted and ready to sleep deep.
