We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

Spike's Bitches 21 Gunn Salute  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Because books.

Is it supposed to be hard?

I think it's harder to do in fiction than it is in a personal essay, but it's still not always easy. I don't know about anyone else, but I liked the stars thing, and I also definitely hear "you" telling this. For what it's worth.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Even if you start out down?

Damn you and your wily brain.

Yeah, definitely.

I also definitely hear "you" telling this. For what it's worth.

Thanks.

Susan has a new tag. It's probably supposed to be inspirational, but it's also illogical.

Huh. It is, isn't it? I thought it was such good advice for keeping with the writing even when things aren't going well, but now I may have to replace it as soon as I can.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It is, isn't it?

No, not really.

I made Susan change her tag. I am a bad person.

Nope. That's the beauty of the thing.

No, I'm a bad person because the inspirational meaning is lost on me as soon as I start questioning whether or not the metaphor makes any sense when viewed literally. Silly nitpicky brain.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Hmm. Want CHOCOLATE.

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

But it does make sense literally. ita explained it.

Yeah, but why would you start out from an already fallen position?
