Memage! And rambling!
From the thefridayfive:
1. What would you do if a random stranger gave you a bouquet of roses?
Probably think they were doing it for some sort of cause? We get people handing out flowers fairly often 'round my work during the year.
2. What is the most commonly used colour in your house?
Depends on the room! Kitchen: blue/yellow. Living Room: green/brown/black. Mum's room: Red/brown. My room: yellow/blue/purple. Sister's room: green/brown/grey. Brother's room: blue/black/white.
…and so on. Yes.
3. What colour is your favourite t-shirt?
*thinks* Orange, currently. Though I've got a blue one that's pretty awesomely comfy too.
4. If you could go back in time, what time would you live in and where would you live?
I don't want to go back in time! I'm pretty happy being a modern girl!
5. If you could have any ONE thing in the entire world (not including money) what would it be?
Since this says thing, I'll go with my materialistic response: a place that's all mine, will always be mine, and that I don't ever have to worry about figuring out how to keep it.

1) Post a list of up to 20 books/movies/anime/TV shows/video games/bands that you've had an obsessive fannish love or interest in at some time in your life.
2) Have your f-list guess your favourite character/member from each item.
3) When someone guesses correctly, strike through the item and put the name of your favourite character next to it.
…and this is mostly animanga based 'cause, um, me and live action television don't get along that well mostly.

Miracle Train episode eight came out on Sunday PAPA TOCHO and 2/3rds of the way through the series I'm still ridiculously in love with the absolutely demented show. I honestly don't know what it is about it that's so compelling 'cause, really, it's a pretty bad show all around.
But at the same time? It is totally awesome.
I really don't think I can explain why, 'cause it just sort of is. I mean, it's train stations. Who kidnap girls to solve their problems. Wut.
~Will you fall in love with a station?~
How can you not love a series that asks you that and seriously means it? And oh god, the crack, I still die at the random costume changes and the random train infomercial/lecture sort of tidbits that are all educational and shit (it's an existential crisis, the show seriously can't decide if it's pure crack, or educational crack and so sort of wavers between the two of them like a drunken see-saw) and the episodic plots are always entertaining.
Though I would like more of the plot from episode seven to come back, yes. PLEASE COME BACK, PLOT.
I totally wasn't planning to ramble like a fangirl over it. I was mostly just going to, um, question out loud.
Basically, I was thinking, and wound up at: What is Akari?
I mean. She's a guide for the train, and she's a ~cute~ girl who gets to wear a uniform and hang around with all the hot stations. But-what is she? Is she a normal girl who just got really damned lucky for her job? Is she some sort of potential station? (Unlikely, but.) Is she some sort of past station? (Though we haven't been shown any girl stations at all. Girls do not apparently get to be stations. Ah well.) Is she, was she, born around the same time as the stations opened up for that line? Or-what?
I don't know. Now that I thought about it, it's bothering me. Maaaan.
