Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

All of whom are at least 12 times better-looking than me.

Nuh uh. You're the prettiest.

Are you ready to be strong?

Jennifer Connelly is a fucking goddess. And by the way I look nothing like her, except, you know, we both have brown hair.

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

Nuh uh. You're the prettiest.

It's true.

And by the way I look nothing like her, except, you know, we both have brown hair.

Your smile is way better.

Oh -- as usual -- dear.

I've just been informed that someone "borrowed" a paragraph of my (original) writing for a short story, and subsequently has won a large cash prize and trip to a writing workshop.

I don't know how I'm supposed to feel about that, or how the hell I'm supposed to react.

Imagine how satisfying it will be to turn them in.

Shrift, I think you should let the prize committee know.

David, you are a charming liar. I mean that in the best way.

Pissed off. Bust them.

No, the person who borrowed it is telling me, and asking me what I would like to do. High school student.

Which, well.

This is a very odd way to achieve validation.

Huh? Did they have a flash of conscience or what?

Now tagless for your comfort.

It's time to learn the hard lessons about plagerism.
