Are there really game shows like this?

It seems like she can figure out how to make anything bad.

[eluvianathema]

Everyone, if you feel the need to curse Nyssa or think very bad thoughts of her--think of Isabel instead! Think about how much we like her, how much fun she is. That'll give her more power, instead of giving it to Nyssa.

. . .

Or the Hearth. Or the Caretaker. Or Lilith or Sir Waldemar.... they've all been very kind to me.

. . .

And we could spare some thoughts for Cecilia, too.

What do you want?

+ 1 Cat

[nodo]

[ Shortly behind Tiger, there'll be another Cat following suit but he's not going to be as cheerful or saying much of anything. Definitely not the stage personality that was going on before and if anything he's significantly more somber. ]
