I suppose this is at least 8 hours too soon to refresh...
Probably. On the other hand, one does need to properly warm up one's refreshing fingers. |

Spousal Unit finished the e-books last night and expressed his dismay at being nearly caught up because that would mean, as he put it, having to wait for moar story nao. My replying 'welcome to my world' did not cheer him up at all.
He thinks he's gotten a couple of folks at the hospital interested in SU. On a hurry up and wait late night of working on an MRI they got to talking about what they were reading. Recruiting is, after all, a Delta tradition and it's nice to see him doing his part.
Now to go back to my regularly scheduled too early refreshing fidgets.

Midnight central is our current goal. The Web Ghoul had an evening shift.

Wow. I wish I could say I had seen that coming. That is so... yes, cool!
And so "uh-oh."
Without Daphne...
PTB, you are amazing. Thank you.

For some reason, I can has no ECR right now. Just fond remembrance of old friends. Also somewhat unusually for me, I played Ghost Brigade's new album, Until Fear No Longer Defines Us (which is wonderfully Septembery/Octobery music, makes me wish it was grey and at least half-gloomy and raining when I listen to it) without hearing a note until I finished the episode.
In short: wonderfully written, very lovely it was indeed.
In other news: Yesterday in Tampere, the new Naga eating world champion Petri Ojanperä (FIN) ate 181,57 grams - 25 whole pods - of Naga Morich chilies (aka ghost peppers) in about ten minutes. Why yes, we Finns are insane. Turns out that this year there were no international participants in the Naga contest, but an American did pretty well in Saturday's Chilimix contest.

This chapter had equal amounts of ECR and adorable. I don't know how the PTB managed to measure them to be so exactingly equal.

Soooo ... did Hafidha get herself arrested in the middle of the woods near a technologically disadvantaged middle school on purpose? Because that definitely made it possible for them to take her back alive. Any place that even had traffic lights would have been way too risky.

Zaiyia definitely looks like a character Hafidha would create. And I notice that Zaiyia's latest "recent activity" is dated August 2. Somebody was playing her only a couple of weeks ago - and Hafs was at last word still locked away in Idlewood. And, if "Donation" is to be believed, she didn't get any WoW time when Chaz asked her to look up the recipients of Daphne's organs. Veddy interestink ... |
