Oh no. I'm sorry, Steph.
It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

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

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Teppy, how completely awful. I'm so sorry, and I'm vibing hard for peace to your friend's spirit and swift justice for whoever did this to her.
msbelle, that's rage-inducing.

I'm so sorry, Steph, that's horrible.
And that is some bullshit, msbelle. Following the process is all you can do.
And is, indeed, the reason that we write the process down in the first place. No wonder you're upset.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I'm sorry, Steph. It's hard to comprehend that.
In stupid news, I'm on a call with my coworker and she's droning on, and I'm having a hell of a time staying awake.

Steph, I have no words. I am so sorry. Much love to you and everyone who loved her.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I found out a little more, which is still bad, but in a different way. The background is that she was assaulted over the weekend, but was at her home on Sunday. Her family found her body Monday. Autopsy results showed painkillers in her system, but they had been prescribed for her; what was in her bloodstream was a higher dose than had been prescribed, but not super high. So it may have been an accidental overdose, which is a whole other kind of horrible. It also might have been intentional, but there was no note or anything, so it's not conclusive.
The family wants a private service and burial, so our friends will have a memorial service later.
I'm glad she wasn't murdered, but...damn. My heart hurts. (Not like Lang heart attack pain. Metaphorically.)

Oh no. That she was attacked was bad enough. And if it was an accidental overdose...man.
