You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

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

See if I bring you juice when you've got a half-assed flu this weekend.

Well, I think one half of this couple needs to start ailing this weekend and fail to garner sympathy for it...

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I want to go home now.

Mebbe I can get the flu in the next 5 minutes.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Fine. See if I bring you juice when you've got a half-assed flu this weekend.

That's okay, because I will trundle you up to the emergency room later on when I'm all robust and you're oozing with full-assed flu.

(Actually, no, I just fret, because I think of poor marvelous Jim Henson, who died suddenly and stupidly of the flu the year I graduated from college, and how when my friends and I heard that news on NPR as we were all driving up to see the Spike & Mike animation festival in Rhinebeck, we all got hushed and sniffly, and I love you EVEN MORE THAN I LOVE JIM HENSON.)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Well, I think one half of this couple needs to start ailing this weekend and fail to garner sympathy for it...

Look at that, a literal case of ill-wishing.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

and I love you EVEN MORE THAN I LOVE JIM HENSON.

That's a big love.

That's a big love.

I love you more than Frank Oz, too, except that he hasn't gone and died of something idiotic that makes me go all "Bob could die of carrots, too!"

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

That's a big love.

No shit. I think she wants you to get the damned shot, already. Wimp.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

"Bob could die of carrots, too!"

JZ, honey, his name is Hec, not Bob. Hec-U-Bot.

Are you sure you're going home to the right place every night?

Poor crazy JZ. The flu shot has already addled her brain.

Is either Lost or Veronica Mars a new ep tonight?

Is either Lost or Veronica Mars a new ep tonight?

Nope. And yet I still can't work up the energy to wash my dishes instead of watching a rerun.
