Three ships: Joe/Nicky (The Old Guard), Jyn/Cassian (Rogue One, also Andor even though she’s not even in it but that has resurfaced feelings), Bucky/Natasha (after all this time? always)

First ever ship: I’d have to say Alanna of Trebond/Liam Ironarm from Lioness Rampant. I did come around to Alanna/George, though, but Alanna/Jon was not meant to be!

Last song: "Mr. Brightside” on iTunes, constant refrain of “Baby Shark” out loud except that Bébé has usually has replace “baby” with various names...also sometimes “shark” becomes “goat,” because she met a baby goat in December.

Last movie: Matilda the Musical

Currently reading: Bébé keeps having me start She Persisted but then nopes out around Helen Keller. Perhaps it’s a commentary on Keller’s complicated but indelible legacy?

Currently watching: Leverage: Redemption. I’m really enjoying it—there’s a little more Hardison in the new season, Breanna is a gem, Harry’s actually pretty fun most of the time (and knows his place, narratively and otherwise), and the rest of the original cast remains magnificent. Also...look, it’s not prestige TV, and it’s not the original run. But it’s still a lot of fun, and the show knows you’re there to, like, watch Sophie do a million accents at the flip of a switch, Eliot serve appetizers while beating down henchmen, and Parker flipping through lasers while bad people get their comeuppance. And it delivers. (I still don’t miss Nate, still like how the show’s employed him in-universe as character motivation for Sophie and the others.)

Currently consuming: A lot more Blue Apron than usual while Boyfriend is quarantining at an Airbnb and declined to plan on cooking himself anything while convalescing with XBB. So I’ve been sharing things with Bébé for dinner and then eating the rest for lunch the next day. It’s been a long couple of weeks. 

Currently craving: The end of the aforementioned quarantine; he got COVID at a conference and basically got home, tested, and left so Bébé and I wouldn’t get sick. This has worked (four negative rapids and two negative PCRs over here! Also vaccines!) but we pretty much haven’t seen him in a week and a half and that’s sucked.

❤️ What is your favorite line that you’ve written in a fic?

There's a lot of poetical Buckynat bits, and I will always love Sarah's telling Savannah that she saved her life in she's gotta be strong to fight them, but the real answer is Jake Peralta declaring himself Rosa the Vampire Slayer's assistant, "Codename: the Fancy Garlic. No, wait—” in Hello, Flying Fatality.

👻 What is your wildest headcanon?

I mean, canon never contradicted Rosa as a Vampire Slayer, sooo...it's either that or my Unified Catherine Weaver theory of the Terminator multiverse, which popped up briefly in now i scream 'til the end of the day.

Basically, I think all the shapeshifter machines we meet in various Terminator timelines are all the same one, surfing timelines and trying to kill John (or whoever else, as the case may be) until it gets to the main T:SCC timeline and figures out that that mission is futile—but there may be a more nuanced solution, which is what the imposter Catherine Weaver is trying to achieve in the series.
