On vacation again. Man, have I ever needed it. Jen's husband's home so I've got two roommates again. Three if you count their dog Hagrid. it's been nice, if a little crowded. Jen's cousin Kyle is here almost every weekend, sleeps on the couch. It makes it a little weird to stay up, so I spend most evenings in my room after Mike and Jen have gone to bed.
I've spent most of my spare time playing The Witcher on Steam. there was a sale on and I got it and the sequel for just over $10. And really, playing a video game on my laptop hasn't been as much of a hardship as I was worrying it would be. However, I have discovered I'm less of a fan of World of Warcraft. I played a few free trial hours and I just can't see myself paying for it. I think I'll stick with games where I don't have to pay for a subscription. Mike keeps trying to get me onto Diablo and I'm considering it.
In fannish news, I just finished watching all of Hannibal because it's like that show vomited all over my Tumblr dash and there's just a point where a fangirl stops saying no to that. Despite the murder and cannibalism (or maybe because of it?) the show is beautiful. The sets and the lighting and Hannibal's clothes. The food, which is all kinds of crazy. The food it people, but it's prepared and plated beautifully. I got a little too much enjoyment out of Will's slow descent into madness and watching Hannibal's careful machinations. Through the whole thing I kept trying to decide which he was doing, grooming Will or courting him. Super excited for season two. I'm gonna see if mom'll PVR it as it airs so I don't have to download all the episodes.
Now I'm spending my day reading Hannibal/Will fic. There are some good ones, I promise. My favourites are the dark!Will ones where Will either joins Hannibal or he was always a killer himself. Serial killers in love, it's so romantic.
Yes, I am aware of how crazy I am. But my OTPs aren't all rainbows and sunshine. Sometimes I like them a little fucked up. Sometimes they're just more fun that way.
