She kept saying, "EVERYTHING IS SOOO BIIIG!"
And driving from Boston to NYC, she kept saying "Everything is SOOOOO GREEEEEN!"
Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
She said this in Boston as well. I can only imagine what she thought of New York.
In New York, it was "All the buildings are different!" And the view from the ferry was "GORGEOUS!"
Nice story, Allyson. Very sweet.
ChiKat, in case you missed it, there's a little Nilly in this post. There's no Nilly in these posts, but there's a lot of Kate, as well as some other Buffistas.
Saturday night should be posted this afternoon, which is Nilly-less but Buffistacular. Sunday will take up three or four posts, but includes lots of Nilly.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Allyson, thank you. That was perfect, and yes, I could both see and hear her.
There's not enough Nilly in this world. There needs to be more Nilly.

Just saw Nilly off into Maria's car heading toward National Airport. Had a nice time in Air&Space, even though we had to skim the half of the museum we did see...

We're not losing her! Just lending her back for a bit.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My tale of Nilly would be to shake my head at how she's much too nice for krav, and how I absolutely should have known it. I've never had to imagine someone's face on the target to hit it hard, because just hitting is a joy. But if I had to, I certainly could.
Nilly? She said there was a two day period (quite a while back, it sounded like) where she could have imagined a face, but right then, she had nothing. And didn't want to hit Polgara, because Polgara was nice. No matter how much trash I talked, Polgara remained too nice to hit. Just weird.
So sweet, so excited, and despite the whole "hurt people? why?" angle, she enjoyed herself. Very little self-consciousness, much enthusiasm and joy.
She also lies, lies up a storm, because she spent a lot of time complimenting my Hebrew pronunciation. Still, it's for a good cause (my ego), even if I can only remember the one word.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
Wails.
She is probably boarding by now, isn't she?

What is even happening?
Goodbye, Nilly. Safe travels to you. We miss you so much, already.

Nilly is a really good complimenter.
