um I think I am working too hard

Okay, so finals started last week and I have been CRUNCHING trying to juggle final portfolios, essay writing, Italian verbs, enormously time-gobbling long shifts at my annoying retail job, and all the slides I need to cram down my throat. In short, I have not been sleeping much. But I'm thinking that maybe it's become a problem, because during the

...I see it too. D:

Anyway, it's all over soon, right? THEN YOU CAN SLEEP UNTIL YOU AREN'T TIRED ANYMORE. Also I just listened to AsCast 15 and LOLOLOL LARM YOU ARE HILARIOUS. I especially liked your rant on Liliandil.

Sleeeeeeeep omg. What is that again?

LOLOLZ I was cracked out during that episode! So tired from work and all the workkkk. Also I recorded that episode hiding in the bathtub with my laptop because my apartmentmates were being super loud everywhere else. Totally contributed to the silliness. <3333

Re: Liliandidallinidilani is *such* a pain omg. I know you were on board for her being the wise woman guide, but Pandoran Barbie is anything but. DULCEA OMG.

You pass out and hallucinate for eight hours! IT IS LOVELY.

How can you be against her when she turns Caspian down and has power and, okay, the blue glowing thing is a little weird, but IF LUCY WISHES ON A STAR IT'S GONNA BE HER AND THAT MEANS MORE FEMSLASH.

(What are your feelings on Caspian/Edmund?)

When I was like 9, my friend bit into one of those crack-and-glow plastic necklaces you get at roller disco. Her mouth glowed for a day and she had a bitter chemical taste in her mouth for like a week after. (They also had to call poison control.) LILIANDILLADILALA IS THAT GLOWING BITTER TASTE IN MY MOUTH. When I see her onscreen I forget that I like Ramandu's daughter in the book -- now *she* has cool mysticism and sort-of wisdom. Ladilladinala does like nothing besides stand there and phosphoresce pointlessly.

D: No she also helps save the world!!!! DD:

Also I can totally get on board with Edmund/Caspian in the book, though of course I am primarily a Lucian endorser. But Edmund Caspian could absolutely work (also it is WAY more reasonable than Caspian/Peter). As they say in niche fandom, aka my head, Edmund is Caspian's brother, but Peter is his role model.

In the film they ruined both because reversing the Caspian-Pevensie condescension invalidates all the reason I like my beloved VDT pairings anyway. The film's awkward attempt at a Caspian/Edmund bromance was so so fail too.

Edmund/Caspian in the book is so old school and bittersweet and kind of all the things I love about Lucian but with a slightly different twist. This time around Caspian is less "Pevensies! ****___****" and more of an equal with them--he's older, for one, so they are of an age, and he's started to get his kingship on.

Lolol the film's ~longing looks~ are amazing. Also Caspian's "EDMUND!" every time Ed is in trouble. I kinda was okay with it? Idk. HATEHATEHATE the assassination of Ed's character and Caspian's sudden nobility though.
