introduction

Introduce yourself & your WIP Although I’ve alluded to this story for several years, I do not think I’ve ever really introduced it in any proper way, so I guess now is the best time to do it! Paradiso is if Outer Worlds/Fallout, Battlestar Galactica, Bubblegum Crisis, Akira, Mass Effect, and Game of Thrones got

It actually pains me to say this, but my ex-husband was actually the person to bring me into the Arrested Development fandom. He was as transfixed by the clever, self-referential writing as I would end up being, and after he had watched a few episodes on Netflix (the show had been cancelled well before then),

I think I have always been somewhat aware of The Lord of the Rings, partially because of my love of The Hobbit and partially because my dad reread it every couple of years, but it was always a little daunting: such a fucking big novel for such a, at the time, small person. And that

Ahhhh, this brings me back to my days as a sales associate at Sam Goody/Suncoast. When Jeff, my manager, asked me which side of the store I would rather work, I immediately told him that I wanted “to live with the movies,” an answer he found amusing. Music was fine, but it didn’t mesmerize me

I have Toonami to thank for so many things: The Big O, Tenchi Muyo, Reboot, Sailor Moon, Space Dandy, Gundam Wing, and … of course, Cowboy Bebop. To be completely honest, I didn’t particularly care for it at first. I mean, I didn’t hate it, but it’s not like I would stay up late to

I don’t ever remember Star Wars not being a part of my life. From as early as I can remember, my dad and I would curl up on the couch to watch the original trilogy when it came on TV – well before VHS tapes and DVDs were a thing – and I was transfixed

So I’m going for full transparency here. I was *thisclose* to postponing this challenge until the break between the summer and fall semesters. Microbio is certainly fun and all – and I’m not saying that sarcastically, either – but it’s a very involved course. God, I can’t imagine what it would have been like if

Unlike a lot of the media that I’ve done challenges on before, I can’t really pinpoint an exact time that Mass Effect came into my life. I kind of remember buying the second game without any information about it, either as a singular game or as a sequel, and after a few hours of play,

I was only 9 or 10 when Friends first came on the air, and honestly, I wasn’t really allowed to watch it. Well, I’m not 100% sure about that because I never asked, but based on the fact that everyone was having lots of premarital sex, starting with the very first episode, I’m fairly certain

I am one of those people who never really gets into anything right at the beginning, at least in terms of media. Like with Game of Thrones, I’ve watched Seasons 1 and 2, part of Season 3, and most of Season 7. Don’t judge me. I have been meaning to watch Ash vs. the Evil Dead, The Handmaid’s Tale, Maniac, and like thirty
