"i will kill you if you do one of the following 282 things."
Spammy McSpammerson tonight. My apologies.

It just occured to me that the advantage of picking PBs from the same teevee series is that it's delightfully easy to make muse_secrets cards.

"God, Rajiv," Felicity said once they had left the room. "Just... look at how easy they have it and they've still got their heads up their asses about the whole thing! Danny's afraid of sacrificing his job for an actual family, Alan doesn't want to compromise his family for a flakey guy who can't decide what he wants... I seriously think that Keerthi is the only thing keeping one of them from killing the other in frustration."
Rajiv stared down into his glass, hiding a smile. He had a deep desire to make a joke about the irony radiating from this conversation, but he didn't have the heart to stop Felicity mid-rant.
"The three of them are all any of them need to be happy and instead of embracing it and holding on as tightly as they can, they play these stupid games and threaten to break up and scream and throw fits when things don't go their way. It's insane. It's completely insane! How can they stand there, right in front of the key to happiness, and ignore it? How can they be that scared?"
Rajiv reached into his pocket and pulled out some cash to pay for their drinks.
"Lis," he said, "how many times have I asked you to marry me?"
Clearly taken aback, Felicity floundered for a minute and then held her hand up. Five fingers. Right on the money.
"And how many times have you told me that you're not sure you can do this until you know how it's going to impact your career?"
She was quiet for a long moment before she held up five fingers again.
"It's easy to be scared, honey. Get your coat. Let's go home."

Oh man. I wish the Amy Sedaris interview on TDS could have been longer. I'm also glad that Stephen Colbert's fake crying continues to make my life immensely more exciting.
