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

I would print out the most porny fic I could find and read it in the meetings.

Now that takes ovaries. I have had problems where people have said things that are titles of porny fics and suddenly I'm flashing back to...stuff. Reading? Never. I totally don't have the stone face for it.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

Whoohoo, way to go Perkins! Unfortunately, I have so few meetings to go to anymore, that I don't have any reason to do that.

meara, your boss sounds like my old boss. I had to be Ceasar's wife and couldn't do anything that looked "bad", no matter that the boss and his sidekick did whatever the same shit was or worse.

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

I got to sit in the back of the room, away from the main table, or else I probably wouldn't have either.

I can tell how annoyed one of my developers is in meetings by how heavily he colors in the lines on his doodles. But then, he's not exactly a repressed sort of guy, so verbal cues quickly follow.

Really good swim tonight. I kept forgetting to count, so I swam somewhere between 46 and 52 laps straight, in 45 minutes. I know it was at least 46, but am certain I repeated at least 3, and the others I am not sure about.

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

Unfortunately, I have so few meetings to go to anymore

Other than the fic example, this sequence of words does not make sense in any universe.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I wish I could knit in meetings. Well, I can knit in theatre meetings, but not "real work". Knitting actually helps me pay attention. I am not a doodler, as I am too self conscious about my drawing ability. I do draw diagrams to explain things as I talk, though. I end up with the notebooks with weird circles and arrows-- but I have a hard time explaining /understanding things without visualizing them.

I don't think I'd read fic, but I have totally been posting here from the BB during long meetings. And if I'm WFH all bets are off.

HOLY MOTHER. I just looked up to see Loki shoving a full pitcher of water towards the edge of the counter. It was almost half off it.

That would have been a goddamned mess. Stinker.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

A long time ago, when I worked at a gift registry desk, I used to print our Pacey/Joey fic and read it inside a Bridal Magazine (which we were allowed to read for enrichment).

Also, I hate that making dinner satisfies my hunger. Now I have all this food, and do not want to eat.
