jennaria: Siamese cat, sprawled on her back (Kitty)

The quote is from a very very abridged summary of reactions to The Untamed, which is a series I am experiencing strictly second-hand. It looks super pretty! And the sort of thing that me from ten-fifteen years ago would have eaten up with a spoon and written All The Fix-It Fic for! But at the moment, I am Not Up For New Stories. Like, at all.

Part of it is just...2020. And all the multitude of minor stressors that have become major stressors (whee! anxiety for everyone!).

Part of it is that a couple weeks ago, we went from a two-cat household to a one-cat household. I won't talk about it, (a) because this isn't behind a cut and I try not to be That Asshole, and (b) because Wife is sorta back on her emotional feet (her cat, so she was hit harder), and I thought I was doing okay! until therapy last night, which ripped off the band-aid and now I'm crying at the drop of a hat. Any hat. Anywhere. Hats are littering the floor, apparently.

I feel like there should be a third part, but I can't think of one. Just, no new stories for me.

...Netflix better not take down The Old Guard before my brain stops being stupid, though.

That about sums up where I am with The Untamed too. I can see the appeal and would have been all over it in the past, but I seem to lack the receptors for it right now. Maybe someday.

I did, however, make it through The Old Guard and loved every minute. Highly recommend once you're up to it. Probably not going to follow up with the comics or the fic, but I want a sequel movie like yesterday.

I am sorry that you are now a one cat household.
