Ok let me ramble real quick about the show Hannibal ok?
I have always been a Hannibal Lecter stan. OBVIOUSLY not in like, a condoning anything that he does way, just in a GOD what a fun fictional character I love to watch way.
One of the key traits of Hannibal as a character is his combination of the elite and the vulgar. Like, he loves fine wine and high art and fancy food but he will 100% rip your face off with his teeth like an animal. That’s his thing. It’s his joke he’s playing on the world.
The SHOW Hannibal mirrors this combination of the elite and the vulgar. Even in the writing.
Like, the dialogue of the first few episodes is full of so many metaphors it’s almost incomprehensible.
For example, take this exchange from the pilot,
Hannibal: Do you have trouble with taste?
Will: My thoughts are often not tasty.
Hannibal: Nor mine. No effective barriers.
Will: I build forts.
Hannibal: Associations come quickly.
Will: So do forts.
Like.... what!? At first you’re just like... GIVE ME A FUCKING BREAK NO HUMAN SPEAKS LIKE THIS.
But then, later in the series, you realize that Hannibal is hiding behind all this highfaluting metaphorical language to just straight up tell people at every opportunity that he is a murderer.
Probably the most obvious moment is here:
Cutting then to Hannibal’s victim running through the forest. It’s a bad joke! It’s a seedy, vulgar joke hiding behind a metaphor!
And every character gets wrapped up in it!
When Will is literally sick and dying of encephalitis but doesn’t know it, EVERYONE KEEPS TALKING ABOUT THE WAY HE’S ACTING LIKE ITS A METAPHOR FOR HIS SOUL OR SOMETHING!
While YOU, the VIEWER, are yelling at the screen like GET THAT BOY TO A HOSPITAL YOU FREAKS!!!! HIS BRAIN IS SWOLLEN YOU DUMMIES!
Anyway I’ve seen people make fun of Hannibal for how pretentious it was... thats the whole thing! That’s the point! It’s not actually! It’s a gross out show about a dude eating people! But it’s all wrapped in this arty cinema and poetic language.
Which is exactly what makes it, in my opinion, so freaking fun.
Ok end rant thank you

Many thanks to @vegetacide and @scribbles97 for putting up with my crazy.
Disclaimer: Mine? You’ve got to be kidding. Money? Don’t have any, don’t bother.
-o-o-o-
Gordon knew Tin was up and about within twenty-four hours of the attack, but a groggy Scott had reined her in for another day to give himself and his brothers time to regroup to at least be functional for the necessary interrogation. All of them wanted to be there and Gordon was ever so grateful his brother had the foresight to do so.
They needed Kyrano alive after all.
Tin was beyond angry. The woman was hurting so bad it was a physical thing.
He woke up at one point to find her sitting beside his bed like a statue, just watching him. It could have been creepy, but for the pain on her face. She sought out each of her brothers for different things. Scott for guidance, Virgil for reassurance, John for knowledge, Alan for companionship, but when she came looking for Gordon it was for resilience.
“Hey, Tin.” His voice wasn’t its strongest.
Her eyes darted to him, but she didn’t say anything.
Worried, he reached out and gently took her arm. She didn’t resist, but she still didn’t acknowledge him.
“We will find out why. He wouldn’t do this willingly.”
That snapped her out of it. Her head spun around and those familiar green eyes so like her father’s grabbed his. “Willingly? How could anyone coerce him into trying to kill his family? He loved this family more than his life, Gordon. Your father meant more to him than you will ever understand. Losing him...” Her lips thinned and she looked away. “I lost them both.”
His hand tightened on her arm, refusing to let go.
“We’ll get him back.”
“How?” It was a challenge.
And he didn’t have an answer.
“Empty promises are just that...empty.” She shook off his hand and with a single glance of hurt, strode from his room.
Gordon sighed and closed his eyes a moment.
A thumb on his collar. “John, you’re going to have to set up that meeting sooner rather than later. We need answers and we need them now.”
-o-o-o-
It was like a scene from that old Hannibal Lecter movie. The one where the female agent stood in front of the glass enclosure and was terrified by the man eating criminal.
Aunt Val had moved Kyrano to a cell on the military base. She had been true to her word and security was so tight even the Tracys were glared at and inspected within an inch of their lives before being allowed to enter the viewing room.
The sight of Kyrano strapped to a chair beyond the plexiglass wall was chilling.
The confident and calm expression on his face, even more so.
They managed to fit three hoverchairs in that small room along with Alan, John and Kayo standing beside them, Aunt Val and the two guards.
It was a tight fit.
Virgil stared at the man who had loved them, yet hurt them so much.
“Hey, K.” Gordon’s voice was quiet.
Green eyes snapped to his brother. “You disappointed me, Mister Gordon. I thought you, of all of them, could follow through and put an end to this.”
“An end to what?”
Kyrano opened his mouth to answer, but something flickered in his eyes and he shut it again. A breath. “Have you learned nothing?”
“We have learnt plenty, Kyrano.” Scott straightened in his chair with a wince. “What we want to know is why you have turned on your family.”
The Malay aimed his gaze at Scott. It was as calm and as level as always. “Commander, I can not give you all your answers. You will need to do the work yourself.”
Kayo stepped forward. “Father, tell me why.” Her tone was cold.
“I can not tell you anything, daughter. You will need to discover it for yourself.”
And there sat a stalemate.
The brothers stared at Kyrano and the tension tightened its stranglehold on the room.
John whispered something into his comm and Virgil heard his niece answer. He turned to look at his space brother. John was tired. His face gaunt with tension. He still wore his uniform in a way that made it appear that the blue fabric was all that was keeping him together.
Considering his abrupt descent from orbit, it probably was. Virgil sighed. He and his brothers were a mess. International Rescue was down and writhing on the floor. If that was what their opponent wanted, then they had succeeded.
His eyes crept up to Kyrano’s and he found the man staring into his soul.
“Have they told you?” The man’s voice was smug yet held an edge of desperation.
“What?”
“How I tried to kill you.”
“What?”
“Hmm, apparently not. All that effort, all that technology and they didn’t even tell you.”
Virgil frowned and turned to his brothers. “What is he talking about?”
“Don’t let him play you, Virgil.” Gordon’s voice was cold and he glared death at his former mentor.
Kyrano turned to that voice. “You could not disappoint me more. I have made it plain and clear, yet you do not see. My faith in you was so misplaced and now-“
“Leave him alone!” Virgil’s words whipped across the room and snapped against the plexiglass. “You’ve done enough!”
“Obviously, I haven’t because you are all clueless!” There was the first hint of anger in the man, his calm cracking, that edge of desperation clearer than ever before. “Mister Virgil, the weak link. Attack the sensitive one, the honest one, the vulnerable one. Use him. Gain the attention of the military ones, the eye in the sky.” His tone was all scoff. “You are my family. Of anyone on this planet, you should understand.” His shoulders dipped just a little. “I have failed and this will continue because it can’t anything but.”
“Talk to me, Kyrano.” Scott’s voice was parched, but determined.
“I can not.” Green eyes met blue with an intensity of fire. “You are all going to die.”
It was cold and with a finality that sunk into his bones.
The room was silent for a moment until John’s hand landed on Scott’s shoulder and his brother whispered in his ear. Virgil couldn’t hear what he said, but the response was immediate, Scott turning his hoverchair around and summoning Kayo and Aunt Val with a hand signal. He also gestured for Virgil to follow, but Virgil gestured with his head towards Gordon, the aquanaut still glaring at his former mentor.
Blue eyes flickered, message understood.
Gordon wasn’t to be left alone with Kyrano.
A glance in the prisoner’s direction and Virgil was chilled by the small smile on the man’s face.
He saw everything.
Kyrano always did.
John led his brothers, sister and aunt our of the room, leaving Gordon and Virgil alone with the two guards...and Kyrano.
Virgil lined himself up with Gordon and echoed his expression.
“How’s your oesophagus?”
Gordon’s voice was sharp. “K!”
“Why hide it, Mister Gordon?” Kyrano shifted where he sat, his bonds tight and obviously uncomfortable. “Anyone would think you had an enemy in the room.”
“Fuck you.”
“Mister Virgil remembers the pill, don’t you, Mister Virgil.”
He did. Gordon’s expression could have melted the glass between the two men.
Those eyes slid back to the aquanaut. “You should be proud of him, Mister Gordon. No matter what we did, his thoughts were only of you. ‘Must protect Gordon’. He also had this faith in you that was quite indefatigable. He was determined you were going to enter the room like some superhero and save him.”
Neither Tracy answered him. Virgil’s hands formed into fists nonetheless.
The tableau was interrupted by Alan darting his head in the door. “Hey, Virg. Scott wants you.”
Virgil’s eyes darted to the cameras above and his lips thinned.
Kyrano actually laughed.
“Gordon, you’re coming with me.” Virgil found his voice ever so dry.
“Forget it.”
“Gordon-“
His brother’s eyes caught him and the determination in them burnt a streak across his heart. “I will be fine.”
He held that gaze for a long moment. “Right outside the door.”
Gordon didn’t answer. He turned back to glaring at Kyrano.
Scott better have a damned good excuse. This was against Virgil’s better judgment. Something in Gordon was scaring him.
Shoulders tight with strain, he followed Alan from the room, the sight of his aquanaut brother glaring at his mentor, burnt into his brain.
-o-o-o-
The moment Virgil left the room, the atmosphere changed.
Gordon’s hackles rose even higher.
“Now isn’t that much better? All the arty civilians have left the room. It is just you and me now.” Kyrano’s smile was sickly.
“What are you trying to do, K?”
“What needs to be done. Unfortunately, you have failed to connect the extremely obvious dots, Mister Gordon.”
“You can drop the ‘mister’. Your lack of respect is obvious.”
“I will always respect you, Mister Gordon. I thought I made that clear.”
“Yet you will attempt to murder us in the same breath.”
“I only do what I have to. I had hoped you would be smarter. Apparently, I failed.”
“No, you don’t get to do that. This is on you!” He stabbed his finger at the man behind the glass.
“Nothing is on me! I wanted none of this!” And there, just for a moment, there was a crack in that calm. There was grief and pain, for a just a split second.
And it was gone.
Gordon jumped on it, desperate to grab some sanity in all this. “K, please! Why?!”
The guard to Gordon’s right shifted where he stood, turning from his attentive stance to look at Gordon. “Because he is fighting me. Obviously he in need of another treatment.”
Kyrano froze and stared at the man. “No!”
A flicker of holographic display and the ‘guard’ turned back to the prisoner. “Tell me, brother, why not?”
-o-o-o-
The room Virgil coasted into was almost as tense as the one he left. Scott’s frown was about to eat his face. “Virgil, there is something we haven’t told you.”
“What, really?” His patience was about gone. Kyrano had spoken so many hurtful truths. The man obviously knew things he did not. “I would never have guessed.”
Scott’s eyes dropped to the floor for a moment before shooting him a non-verbal apology.
Virgil’s lips thinned. “Tell me.”
And that was how he found out he had been the one to nearly kill his entire family.
He didn’t let it digest, refusing to react. He could be the strong one if necessary. Screw all this stereotypical soldier crap. “Kyrano tried to give me another pill.”
Scott blinked. “When?”
“On the Island. That was what he was trying to do when Kayo interrupted him.” C’mon, face it, she had saved his ass and not for the first time.
“Well, where is it now?” Scott’s question was sharp.
“I don’t know! How could I know it was anything other than a pill. I thought he was trying to drug me again, this time to kill me. He said it all had to end. He didn’t want to do it, but he had to.”
Scott turned to his sister. “Do you know?”
She shook her head, no words passed her lips. Her body held so much tension he feared she might combust on the spot. This just got worse and worse.
“So he has tried to kill us twice. Claims he doesn’t want to, yet keeps doing exactly that.” Virgil glared at his brothers. “What the hell is going on? This isn’t Kyrano...” He paused. “That is Kyrano, isn’t it?” He looked up at the tallest brother in the room. “John?”
“We can’t scan him-“
“You couldn’t locate that Null base either.”
“No, but-“
“Then they have to be related. Our detection systems are the best on the planet, the only reason Kyrano can’t be located is because he knows-“
“Virgil.” Scott’s voice was firm. “He doesn’t know everything.”
“What?”
John straightened where he stood. “He doesn’t know about Eos.” Virgil stiffened, ever aware of his aunt standing not half a dozen feet away. His eyes were caught by twin turquoise and a copper frown. “The program found a way.”
“It...did?” Referring to his niece as an ‘it’ felt ever so wrong.
“The device implanted in you had a very specific signature. It was cloaked to all but IR technology. Further to that, we suspect that it was lodged in your oesophagus on purpose. It was designed to lodge in your stomach, bide its time and then explode as the casing eroded, like a time bomb.” Virgil swallowed and John’s eyes darted to one side for just a moment before he obviously steeled himself and caught Virgil’s eyes again. “We all know that Kyrano is good at what he does. He isn’t seen unless he wants to be seen. That device has to have been sabotaged to do what it did. It gave us enough time to find it and defuse it. When has anything Kyrano done, ever failed at that level?”
Virgil stared at John before flicking his eyes to Scott. “You think he was trying to save us? From himself?”
Soldier blue stared back at him, so cold they chilled his bones. “I think it is a possibility.”
“It has given us the signature to search for.” John caught his attention again. “The...program can not locate Kyrano in that room, but that signature, on the faintest of wavelengths, is there.” He gestured to the sensor readouts on the security cams. Gordon was glaring at an empty chair in the middle of the room, the two guards equally staring at nothing. But they knew Kyrano was there.
John touched his interface with Five and a red dot appeared on the readout, about a metre above the seat of the chair.
“There is something in his head?” The words fell from Virgil’s mouth. His eyes widened. “Like the Mechanic.”
“We can only guess at this point.” John was falling back on science, shunting his reactions aside to focus on the problem.
But it explained so much. “He said we could end it.” The red dot blinked at Virgil.
“Oh my god.”
-o-o-o-
End Part Seven.

long-ass fucking questionnaire
yoooooooo, I did it all.
I’m starting this at 1:15 in the morning. Let’s see how long it takes me to finish. cause I’m a masochist, apparently.
1: My name?
do I HAVE to? Okay, it’s Kelly. But I really hate it, so usually I go by Kel. A few lucky ones get to call me Kelly, but only because I love the way my name sounds when they say it. There, my dirty secret is out.

A plethora. Artie (after the fish), Fluffie (long story) Jellybean
3: Zodiac sign?
The most Libra Libra that has ever Libra’d.

Bold of you to assume I have friends.
13: Favourite word?
sycophant, gestalt, melancholy
14: The last person who hurt me, did I forgive them?

74: Favourite place on the planet?
Asheville, NC. Technically, it's Montreat, which is right outside of Black Mountain and is a township unto itself. It's also home to Montreat Bible College, established by Billy Graham, and the Chapel of the Prodigal. It is also home to Lake Susan, one of the most quiet and beautiful places on God's green earth, and I would live by that little lake if I could. I have photos in my Google Drive, I need to share them sometime. You'll see what I mean. But I love Asheville, too, downtown and all.
75: Where do I want to live?
Asheville, NC. Except I can't drive in the snow and ice, so there's that.
76: Do I have any pets?
I have two cats, Samhain Murray (Sam) and Margaret May (Maggie, Maggie May, Margaret Ann)

On my laptop, it's Oswald Cobblepot (Robin Lord Taylor) from Gotham. On my tablet, it's the Superman logo. On my phone, it's my cat, Sam.

Night owl, given that it's 2:30 AM and I'm still working on this.
79: Sunsets or sunrise?
Sunsets, please.
80: Can I drive?
i don't know, can you? I can.
81: Story behind my last kiss?
I kissed my cat on his cold wet nose because he was headbutting me and so I kissed him.
82: Earphones or headphones?
Earphones, sadly. I prefer headphones, but headphones are uncomfortable because I wear glasses. So, earbuds.
83: Have I ever had braces?
Did you? I don't know. Did I? Yes, I did, I fucking despised them.
84: Story behind one of my scars?
in late 2004, I started getting very ill. I couldn't keep food down, I was puking all the time, pale and everything, so I went to the ER and found I had a mass the size of a basketball growing in my abdomen. I was shipped to the local cancer center because of the cancer markers, and at the tender age of 27, I got a hysterectomy. I was cut from my navel to my diaphragm, old school, because the mass was twenty-four pounds. Benign, thank goodness, but it had started to go necrotic and I was well into blood poisoning (the reason I was puking and sick all the time). I still have the scar, and always will.

I don't know that I have one, as such

Sometimes we're BFFs and finish each other's sandwiches, and other times, we hate each other's guts and would gladly murder each other and bury the bodies in the backyard.

Horrible loser. I hate to lose.

139: If I found a wallet full of cash on the ground, what would I do?
oh man. I'd like to say I'd turn it in untouched, but. I also know I've got medication pay for (mine and mom's), her insurance to pay for (i'm uninsured), groceries and gas to buy, so in all probability? I'd keep the cash but return everything else.

My year in fiction.
As with previous years, this post was brought to you by Bibliocommons’ Completed Shelf. Fuck yeah opt-in datasets.
So, I fucked up this year a little. This was the year that I finally converted to ebooks. It helped that I got a new phone and it is a sight more conducive to e-reading than my previous device. It was also convenient, pandemically, and convenient, collection-wise. A lot of libraries have significant scifi and fantasy collections in digital but not physical. And you can use your library card here to sign up for access to five separate public libraries' digital collections.
So how I fucked up was I didn't have my borrowing history saved on the ebook app for about six months. And I have terrible recall and unless I was raving about the book on social media then I have no idea if I read it, finished it, hated it, returned it in disgust five pages in, etc.
Regardless, let's proceed.
This year was much like previous years - lots of rereads and very few new releases. Many fiction and basically no nonfiction. I did some reading themed around books-that-got-adapted-into-TV, because let's face it, this was a TV year.
I haven't even seen The Last Kingdom, but my partner was telling me I would like it, so to spite him I started reading the ebooks. Then they were so delightful he got interested and bought the physical books. Now he's slightly ahead of me in the series and I'm reading some other Bernard Cornwell books instead.
I watched all of the Hannibal TV show and really truly hated the ending, and then read all the books to figure out where all the weird tonal shifts and abrupt storyline conclusions were coming from. Having read all the books (except the weird final early-years one), I still don't know.
Continuing along my usual historical fiction, I enjoyed Gillian Bradshaw's reenvisioning of some Arthurian stuff. All five of my libraries only have the first two books, not the completion of the trilogy. Go figure. Nor do they have other titles of hers, or I'd be talking about them too.
This was easily and by far the best book I read in 2021, and I'll be buying a copy to reread it soon. What can you even say about The Corner That Held Them?
Viper Wine was a really incredible read. It's so imaginative and such a wonderful crossover between the historical fiction I love and the arty modern stuff I bemusedly tolerate and the scifi I feel very strongly about one way or another.
Good segue Allana!
Mem is a very clever scifi, almost classic in that it takes just one interesting innovation and extrapolates some completely melodramatic societal shit from there. But it's also quite modern and very well done in its way.
Hench was good but also terrible? It is basically all the same questions that the Venture Brothers tv show asked years ago - and that The Boys is asking now, and etc. It had some excellent societal extrapolations and quite a few plot holes and annoyances.
The Wisteria Society was so totally bonkers I don't know what to say. I'm not entirely sure I liked it? Even though I had fun reading it?
Other stuff that's even less recommendable:
I read the Robert Galbraith (JKR) gumshoe books. For some reason Crave has only one season of the TV adaptation, and it's the most recent one, so I started that and got all excited about Holliday Grainger being in them. If you think the TV show is forcedly tawdry, I've got some news for you about the books.
I attempted to read some memoirs and some lightly-fictionalized accounts of life in the CIA after I watched a few seasons of Homeland. Nothing to write home about.
I skimmed probably 20+ different nonfiction books about modern witchcraft of various kinds (urban! green! uhhhh, I dunno, digital! or something) just to see what the kids these days are even pretending it all is, you know? Results: disappointment.
I read the Phantom Of The Opera! The actual book! It was ... something.
In rereads:
All the Becky Chambers, plus a new one I think? What is time.
Some not-insignificant amounts of Jane Austen & LMM.
Did I read the Harry Potters from the shelves? Probably.
I capped off the year rereading Reservoir 13 from Jon McGregor to remind myself that he is good, after trying and failing at his new one, Lean Stand Fall. (Sorry.)
I started to read Double Fold again, the first time since grad school, to see if I thought worse of it now that I'm so much more annoyed by non-GLAM-people telling GLAM people how to do their jobs. Didn't get far though.

23, 25, 27, 28!😊😊
Hello lovely! How are you? Enjoying the run up to New Years?
23.) fics you wanted to write but didn’t
Hmm.... I wanted to write a Blaayla fic because they are so deliciously tragic but I apparently do not have the bandwidth for that. BUT I WANT TO. I SO WANT TO. I am trying to figure out if I can fit Bly into the back third of After the End because there is a small clone subplot.
I also started a niche rarepair fic that won’t see the light of day but I ADORE IT. It’s so healthy.
And General Ghost. I wanted to work on his story but, like the Spanish Inquisition, no one expects T&K to land in their lap. 25.) a fic you read this year you would recommend everyone read
Court and Spark by @jerseytigermoth
This is an amazing fic which brings together an emotionally damaged Ben Kenobi and a grieving but stable Anakin Skywalker in a lovely old house in Maine during a snowy winter. Somehow they find themselves falling in love over the course of a few weeks and while Ben has a LOT of issues that he has to deal with, Anakin is there for him every step of the way, his rescue puppy Artie at his side. With loving guest appearances by Jocasta Nu, Dex, Vokara Che, Ahsoka, Padme and Rex, in all his quietly affectionate wonderfulness, this is a BEAUTIFUL fic to curl up with on a cold, snowy day. It’s almost finished but even if Jersey can’t make it back to the fic, it’s reached a touching and satisfying resolution so you’re not driven to online stalking her, driving to her location and shouting at the top of your lungs “OKAY BUT WHAT HAPPENS NEXT????”
Which would be weird. So please don’t do that. XD
ALSO...
I WANT MORE HORIZON LIGHT OKAY? IT’S BY @glare-gryphon. IT’S AMAZING. I WANT MORE OF IT AND THE ONLY WAY TO GET MORE IS TO CONVINCE EVERYONE TO GO READ IT.
It is Star Wars x Pacific Rim Mashup and it. Is. AMAZING. STELLAR. IT MADE ME SAD ABOUT THE PROBLEMATIC GLACIER. YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS FIC.
DOOKU IS A JAEGER PILOT. WITH VENTRESS. IT IS SUBLIME.
I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP. YOU MUST READ THIS. GO. COMMENT. KUDOS. MAKE GLARE WRITE MORE!
27.) favorite fanfic author of the year
But you’re all so awesome! That’s like chosing my favorite clone! Rex, no Fives, No Cody! No no no! Echo! NO DAMNIT! IT’S REX-WAIT!
In lieu of picking a favorite, I would like to give props to @hellsbellssinclub for her fantastic work on Across the Stars. She’s worked so hard on this fic and I am so proud of her for sticking through the long months and updates. I know how hard it is to keep up interest for a long fic so MAD PROPS TO YOU BELLS!
Also I would like to give a shout out to @thefiresofmustafar for her ongoing and ambitious Atlas Project which is inspired by different songs on the ablum Atlas Year One or Year Two by Sleeping At Last. She’s done some lovely work on this project, most recently on forgiveness is a lesson he cursed you to learn and i will rearrange the stars, pull them down to where you are which has the most fantastic mid-labor quote from Padme.
“Anakin Skywalker, if you don’t get your former Master in this room in the next ten seconds I will strangle you with my bare hands, labor be damned,“
Do not argue with the woman giving birth to your twins, Anakin. You will not win.
28.) longest fic you read this year
Coda. Equinox? No, actually A Walking Shadow by @writegowrite which I love and adore even as she calls it her red-headed step child of a fic. And I don’t care what she says, the Obikin is not subtext imho. It IS text. Also, Obi-Obi is the cutest nickname. Almost as cute as Bibi.
Oh! No! Actually the winner is Negotiation by Glare. Which I did not understand before I watched Hannibal and now I understand SO MUCH MORE.
SO. MUCH. MORE. XD
Got a Fan Fic End of the Year Ask for Auntie Fishy?
Ask here!

Hannibal rewatch 1x11 “Roti”
I could go for some roti. I can make some dal. Maybe for a nice lunch next week.
“I have no interest in understanding sheep. Only eating them.” Sheep? Or sheeple?
Very sweaty Will. Watching polar ice caps melt. Climate change ramps up my anxiety, too, WIll. And the alarm clock just wet itself.
Aren’t Will’s dogs getting stressed with how much their owner is stressed?
Gideon and Chilton are just too sassy to be in the same scene together. Sass levels are through the roof!
Pretentious, arty close-up of blood spreading on white fabric. *pinches thumb and forefinger together, shaking wrist*
And we all point fingers at who’s manipulating who. And in the end...it’s Rumplestiltskin.
I wonder how much just carrying around an icepack would help Will? At least at night, I know when I suspect I could get night sweats, I sleep with an icepack. Helps tremendously.
Oh, hey, the walls of the morgue are melting again.
