The Little Girl Cousin Is A Fangirl!

Aug 21, 2010 22:10

So, first, let me explain my family dynamics a little. I have double-cousins. Two brothers married two sisters (as in, my dad's older brother married my mom's younger sister). Mom and Dad had four kids - aunt and uncle had four kids. And we were practically raised together. There was a lot of "you take the girls tonight and I'll take the boys ( Read more... )

the nephew, fan-kids, movie blahblahblahing, family circus, little girl cousin, avatar not the one with blue people, tv show blahblahblahing, real life, boy cousin

How is she six already? I feel like I haven't seen her in forever! She and the Nephew are both growing up so fast!

Also, she's totally right and Sokka is awesome. But Toph is awesomer. I can't wait till you get to season 2 and meet Toph. I seriously have to buy those dvds.

It's so awesome that you and your sister are so good at indoctrinating the younger generation. I can only hope to follow your example once my own brothers start to procreate. All shall watch The Neverending Story and despair!!!!

Your brothers need to get on that! You have great wisdom to pass onto the next generation. Hopefully by the time she hits high school, her mother will be less insane about, well, everything and we will be able to have her over enough to watch The X-Files. (Hey maybe we can do that with B once she gets her driver's license.)

The Nephew is so tall, he comes up to my chest almost, it's getting ridiculous. Who told him he could grow, especially when I am just getting shorter!

I love Sokka, but I'm really feeling for Zuko and I've been told to "wait for it, he's awesome". (<--can you tell whether I got that from the adult or from the kid in that family?)

Man, I can't wait to introduce a new generation to The X-Files. Did you know that my youngest brother thinks it's a boring show! And he's the one I thought I could rely on!

Zuko's story is good, and he does get more and more awesome (and I bet it was the adult in that family who told you that;-). And I totally would've been a Katara/Zuko shipper if I'd ever been in the fandom. But, for my money, Uncle Iroh is the bomb. I want to drink tea with him forever.

BTW, what am I still doing up? It's, like, almost 11PM! I'm practically a vampire, or something!

First couple episodes I was all "oh well the thing with Aangh (and no, I'm not going to look up how to spell these ridiculous names, you know who I mean) and Katara is cute" but as soon as they left on their quest and Sokka was all grouchygrouchypants about Aangh, I was like, "Ha! I found slash in a children's cartoon!" (and was oddly proud of myself.) But since then, I just want to write Zuko and his Uncle on their ship (like, hmmm, I wonder if there are stories about the two years they have previously spent looking for The Avatar on that ship together - but not in a incestuous way, just to be clear.) Also, there is a scene where they both comfort Aangh where I was like "Poor dogboy's blind dead girlfriend." It made total sense, except Sokka wouldn't get as huggy as Alec is willing to ( ... )
