Maru (the Cat who Sits in Boxes) and Hana now have a kitten to deal with.

I'm still watching Lost Tomb Reboot, going very very slowly, mostly because of my fractured attention span but also, I admit it, because I keep pausing to stare at Sir's Face. The best thing about this show is just how much they labor to give Zhu Yilong room to work his microexpression magic and nuanced character acting in the midst of all the action-adventure (he got threatened by clams in the most recent episode, and it was amazing), and to light him beautifully while he does it. They read the label when they bought him, and I really hope other shows will do the same.

I signed up for fandomtrees, which is a really nice little fannish gift challenge that would be especially suitable for anyone who isn't feeling up to the big ones this year, like yuletide. You simply ask for a gift in a fandom of your choice - art, fic, anything. Officially you must request three fandoms, but they can also be non-fannish things like recipes, song recommendations or whatever, so it's suitable for monofannish people like me. And all you need to do to give someone a gift is post a comment under their letter, no need to sign up or anything. It's a 100 word minimum for fic, so it's super low-key, and I will be stalking people's letters to see what tasty things I can offer.

My fandomtrees letter is here, and there are already four Guardian requests!

And the Sundial Exchange signups have started, too, yay! I haven't signed up yet but I plan to, and I'm really looking forward to it. This is for Guardian and Guardian-related fandoms, and there was some spectacular art and fic for it last year.

*cough* most of it.

Hahaha, understood, and same! I just take it as read that we all either skip past the awful B plots or just suffer through them for Science, because that is not where the gold is. And hee, your wife sounds like the perfect companion for this show! (LOL @ the emotional space battle moment - yes, maybe there are some shows where you wouldn't want to watch together...)

We're currently in the season 1 warehouse Extreme Filing sections.
Heee, yes, I have been calling it the world's worst Amazon warehouse but I like your version. It just gets weirder and weirder and I love that.

I hope you do sign up for fandomtrees, I would love for many Guardian people to sign up! And Sundial is the big event for me this year.
