Thank you, Bramble! 💕

I will say one series I read to completion thanks to my friend that has become a new favorite is the manga Are You Alice? by Ikumi Katagiri with Ai Ninomiya, the English print edition by YenPress.

I'll be honest, I've never been the biggest fan of AiW retellings and inspired media, and I'm not the biggest AiW fan in general. So when my friend Seris recommended this to me, I had some trepidation, but I was willing to give it a shot.

I'm really glad I did, because this is one hell of an intense and intriguing mystery series, it utilizes the elements of AiW and historical facts excellently, and it has some powerful and (dare I say it) beautiful discussions about identity, choice, and life and death and love. I went on a ramble last year after I finished reading all 12 volumes, because this was thought-provoking in a great way, and it has officially become a new favorite for me.

For the fandom meme! :3

E - Have you added anything cracky/hilarious to your fandom, if so, what

I did a fic where Ankh has awkward sexual tension with The Owner from Den-O because of a scene in the OOO, Den-O, All Riders movie. I also did a fic where Atropos has a tumblr.

F - What’s the longest you’ve ever been in a fandom

For sure Sailor Moon, which I've been into most of my life! Little over 20 years. (God, what is time.)

K -Say something nice about someone in any of your fandoms

💌Send this to the twelve nicest people you know or who seem to have a good heart and if you get five back you must be pretty awesome 💌

YOU MUST HAVE CAUGHT MY WAVELENGTH BECAUSE YOU WERE ACTUALLY ONE OF THE FIRST PEOPLE I THOUGHT TO SEND IT TO BUT YOU DON'T HAVE ASKS ENABLED SO I WALKED AWAY FROM YOUR BLOG LIKE SAD DEJECTED TIGGER.

I feel like James' laugh is the thing Hartley would love most about him, because James is so good at making others laugh and probably laughs easily himself, and Hartley can be prone to moodiness and would appreciate somebody full of joy. I doubt there was much laughter in the Rathaway household, and it must feel so good to be around someone who's often spontaneously joyous or has fun entertaining/amusing other people. The opposite of his parents :>
