I'm not criticising Megan's use of momentarily. Later in the episode they prove Dana wrong, it can be used as "for a moment" and "in a moment". Just every time I hear that word, I think of that scene.
Angel: I can stay in town as long as you want me. Buffy: How's forever? Does forever work for you?

Thanks for all the fish.
BWAH!
Dr. Tolkien is quite nice, actually. I think he looks like Luke Wilson. Brian disagrees, but what does he know, anyway? His brain is full of bone and diseased tissue. So now I can call him a bonehead with complete accuracy. Surgery is being scheduled. Booking for July, but there are lots of cancellations and Brian is on the list.

Uh, ?

Thanks for all the fish.
Uh, yeah? What? Did Brian not show you the pictures of his brain?
Also, are you free Friday night?

I emailed about Friday, and I saw no brain pictures. How much bone? (Looking for 'not too much'.) Brian's brain was always just a little diseased, though.

Thanks for all the fish.
To be fair, it's not so much his brain that's diseased as his sinus lining. And, apparently, lots of bone. Going to check e-mail.

Is this a product of his last surgeries? You'd think the bone would have been noticed before.
I'm glad he has a diagnosis and a surgery date. Here's hoping for a lot of miracle recoveries and cancelled surgeries.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Dragged over from Natter because I lost it ...
Mecha! You doll!! Elena has my address ... take your own sweet time, but thank you so much.

What's Mecha doing? Oooh, I'll be a ferreting it out of him tomorrow!
Megan, the new doctor was quite unimpressed by Brian's last surgery. Not that the surgery caused the problems, but because the last doctor didn't bother to ream out the massive overgrowth of bone - which is what is contributing to the disease.
Griff! When can we expect you back? How was the wedding in Truro?
