For some reason your comment made me imagine all my characters performing an emergency evacuation from my damaged flash drive, in an orderly fashion led by, like, three AU versions of Captain America and the Avengers.

"Children and unsettled daemon characters first!"

And then some sort of headcount, followed by the Captains America allowing people forward to have their stories written in the safety of a new drive.

On the bright side, this makes the face that my period key broke yesterday and now I'm punching a random hole in my keyboard to end sentences seem very trivial.
