Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, interesting thought.

Got interrupted last night, watching my recording this morning. Had to pause after the foxtrot to exclaim over Russell. I just love him.

Mmm, Victor. Mmm.

That little bit where Victor was walking while Bianca was doing rolls along the floor trying to hold on to his leg? Was so, so lovely.

Oh dear lord, yes, that was beautiful.

Ellenore, still delightful. It's hard to believe she's only 19, she seems so fully realized.

Eta: and I liked that Sonya piece so much better than the one last week.

Man, I was all set to hate Kathryn after all that crying, but that was great.

I'm surprised by all the praise for the disco, I didn't think it really worked. Some of the lifts they nailed, but they botched at least one, I thought, though they covered nicely.

Damn, Russell! I can't even tell why that solo was amazing, but it sure was.

Poor Brandon. They should've brought him in as a special guest to partner Pauline this week, not pretended he really had a shot to go on for the rest of the season. Or just put Russell and Pauline together and no judges elimination this week.

God I hate it when they criticize the dancers for not showing personality of charisma or whatever. Surely that would come out in the voting. I like Ariana even more for how she handled getting eliminated first.

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

I just really hope that if they can change the rules for Brandon (and they should) they will also change them for Billy, even if that means they have to change them for Noelle.

Oh, I didn't even think of Billy not being able to come back! That would be most unfair.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Billy never competed, so I don't think the rules covered him.
