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.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Thanks, all! This has been an ongoing process for a number of years. We're finally at the point where we feel we can tell people outside of our families.(and a few friends who we asked for referrals)

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Yowza. Congratulations on the baby!

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

Sheryl! Gary! And very very lucky baby!
