I am stuck at work today. Send me asks about whatever or there’s questions in the post below.

Boooored

Also if you call me for tech support because you can’t log into your school on Christmas Eve or Christmas I’m silently wondering WHY. Especially with school not in session.

Certainly not all future writers and creators who grew up in this era went on to write fanfiction. Some put those toys away for good. Some of them (albeit a distinct minority) grew up to be Joss Whedon. Much like Rex Stout speculating on the parentage of Lord Peter Wimsey, Whedon has spent some time considering the lineage of his own characters with relation to the culture of our youth: “If you are going to tell me Han Solo isn’t the father of Malcom Reynolds, then I am going to laugh and laugh and laugh…Kirk was also, I would say, Malcom’s weird uncle.”
Could I get a fic for that?

I think Smaug and the Balrog would be good pals. They’d sit around discussing how many Dwarves they’ve killed, go for a fly around the misty mountains and burn down villages, argue over whether Erebor or Moria is the better hang out. Firey bros for life.
