maybe I'm just an old crone who's been in the fandom for 4 Fan Fests now but it's always both funny and exhausting how upset people get about things they know practically nothing about

i can't tell anybody how to feel about anything but i'm glad i have taught myself over the years to simply wait and see about the things i am even somewhat dubious about & instead focus on hype over things i am looking forward to

"Looks like I've got you dead to rights this time, Nicky. 'Samatter, didn't recognize the curves? That's the trouble with a palooka like you: You know a good hourglass when you see one, but can't tell time well enough to know when your last few grains of sand have run out."

"Trend chaser? Please, darling: I've been right here being chased all along."

When you're truly your own woman, the freedom and joy of life are irreplaceable and non-negotiable.

"Drink ice cold Fantasia! It's transformatively delicious!" (I've been in my usual winter creative doldrums, but also this took me a long time due to its complexity and loads and loads of procrastination)

"There's the bright and glamorous side of me they all see... and then there's the secret side I show only to you. Hope you're admiring the view all the same, doll."

"Oh, all right, doll: do play your games if you must. I'll just have to go to bed tonight wondering what might have happened had you the boldness to make a move... and so, I suppose, shall you."
