cimoreneEvery now and then I see the "N times X and one time Y" story format and momentarily rue the day basingstoke started the Five Things That Didn't Happen trend.

And honestly, I'd like to shake the dice again and reroll trope history from there with her still doing it, in case we could somehow get the au idea to take off instead.
