A new hiatus announcement thread, because the last one got crowded

[SCoran]

This was ... interesting. I spent half it it alternating between "AWESOME" and "Oh god, poor [Insert name here. Any name]", and the other half going "But haven't they talked about this before?"

Still a wonderful extra. But there was that.

[Elizabeth Bear]

You never have repetitive conversations?

[Mattador]

So, um, those last sentences.

Does she know?  Does she suspect?

[John Campbell]

Anyone else finding the juxtaposition of the last two lines of the extra to be really worrying?

[Caryn]

yes. Definitely. (whimper)

[Bunny M]

Well, they don't know they're on TV, so probably.

Oh, good. I like reading the LJ posts.

Unless something happens to stop them blogging, of course.

^{*sticks fingers in (long) ears and yells*}

LalalalalalalalalaICan'tHearYou!Lalalalala!

[Cal]

That was very nice.  Killer last line.

...erm, given the subject of the conversations in the extra under discussion, I probably could have chosen a better adjective there, couldn't I?

But definitely an unexpected sting to that one.

[greywalker]

Oh, thank Gronk!!!!!  A bit that's not focussed exclusively on Chaz!

*ducking reflexively and and squeaking "pleasedon'tkillme"*

Don't get me wrong.  I love Chaz.  But the boy deserves a break.  I was starting to get itchy, staring into his fishbowl for so long.

Now, I'd love to be inside Hafs' head for a while, to see how she's coping with being a beta.

Back when Vigil 15 first came out, I wrote:

Well, I certainly feel better physically than Chaz did just then. (Ow-ow-ow. Massage for relaxation is much more pleasant.)

Yay for Amy! And especially yay for Amy for knowing the exact right things to say, at the exact right times.

I am slightly surprised, though, that Chaz has to go all the way back to Bawlamer. There's got to be some good massage therapists somewhere in the DeeCee vicinity!

I wrote that because the vignette was set in Baltimore, MD. Said so right up front.

Now, somehow, through some strange alchemical process, Vigil 15 now is set in "Alexandria, MD". Which must be one of those cryptomunicipalities, because Google can't find it anywhere. There is an Alexandria, VA, which would more convenient for Chaz than schlepping up to Baltimore.

Veddy interestink, as Arte Johnson used to say.

[Elizabeth Bear]

That should be Alexandria VA. Template failures happen. *g*

[Edmund Schweppe]

That Duane. He's got to be the brother-in-law of some WTF Network bigwig.

[Elizabeth Bear]

I'm fixing it already.

ETA: there. my incompetence had been repaired.

[jimsmyth]

I'm fixing it already.

ETA: there. my incompetence had been repaired.

Incompetance?  *looks side to side*  I don't see any.


...And thanks for letting me stop wondering how Chaz could possibly avoid gaming an insurance system to get a closer (though probably not cooler) massage therapist.
