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.

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

I have no idea who to invite, and frankly, I think half my friends will blow it off, anyway. It's the way of it.

Invite me, and G&J!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Invitations you shall have!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Invite everyone you used to work with!

I wish I could be there.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I'm guessing you'll have more attendees than that.

PS invite me please.

Oh I just remembered something! We are planning on some promotional stuff for AngeLingo next fall and found a website that will put your logo onto lollipops! I so want them, so I can give them to my students when they come to office hours. But you could probably get your flamingo lollipops there.

Is it wrong that I always think that's the sequel to that Buffy-speak book?

So being the queen of slash isn't a demonstrable talent?

Not something you can really demonstrate in a talent show, no. Watching me write porn on a cocktail napkin would be kind of boring for the audience, I think.

Not wrong at all.

You could always read it. Or you could do slash improv. Get the audience to generate two random character names for you, and then you could do the rest.

Well, I don't like public speaking and I'm not gifted at improv, and by "not gifted" I mean "dude, not enough caffeine in the world to make me good at this."
