#hanfic

Oh my god. This week, Emily and V discovered the existence of the single most galaxy-brain brilliant fanfiction of all time. No spoilers, but you WILL NOT predict ANY facet of this story. Also, we delve into the extremely long and impressive (and sometimes hilarious, because the '90s) history of Hanson fanfiction, AKA Hanfic. The Wayback Machine really earned its $2 donation this week, folks, because it turned up some pure gold.

It is the deadliest mainland hurricane since Hurricane Katrina, and an estimated $53 billion dollars will be needed for North Carolina to recover. Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games home is in Appalachia; additionally, The Hunger Games movie was filmed in Asheville.
