Episode 6: Taiju diving into the pile of Medusas. π€£
I love when Gen gets that sneaky expression on his face.
I also love when Chrome comes out with something that solves a problem, makes me proud. :') Because of Senkuu, Chrome gets to learn more of what he loves.
The non-science users have created diamonds! <3

Episode 7: Kohaku got another badass speech!
It's down to the wire and they're still trying to figure out how to make the diamonds work with the Medusa, but they got a new lead.
Episode 8: It just hit me that Charlotte looked exactly like a sex doll or cartoon balloon when she was poisoned by the spider...she was all butt and boobs. π
Xeno, even if Stanley wasn't a military man he would rescue you even if it wasn't by murdering teenagers...
Usui getting excited is so cute.
Even knowing Tsukasa and Hyouga will be okay it's hard to see them gunned down like that. π And Tsukasa's last thoughts being proud of them and of Senkuu.
"What I once sought to destroy has become a glimmer of hope."
Episode 9: Chelsea crying, Gen losing it at Taiju dying, then Ryuusui, daamn.
I can't remember if we get to see Joel and Kaseki meet but I need to see it!
Joel climbing out from under the corpses, hand getting shut in the vault but pressing the watch on time...the tension!! I'm glad I get to experience it twice through the manga and now the anime, because I definitely forgot some things.
Patience
Tuesday, 2 December 2025 20:00viridian5Three times in the last month I had to give a kind-of brief presentation on my health issues to trainees at a doctor's appointment, twice at pain management and once at dermatology. It was especially weird at pain management since I'm talking about Chiari I malformation, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, and my brain surgery and aftereffects in detail while my doctor sits there silently. Somehow, it always goes from the doctor asking if the trainee can sit in to me giving a mini dissertation.
I automatically slipped into my work voice every time.
Aside from forgetting the words "vertebra" or "vertebrae" in the first time I had to do it--though I think "you know, the small pieces that come off the spine" got the point across--I sounded very professional and knowledgeable! Me, the professional patient.
Other moments from my pain management presentations to trainees:
One trainee saying Chiari only manifests obviously in childhood if it ever does, which was so wrong, especially since I manifested in my 30s, which is actually the clichΓ© for Chiarians who don't show it in childhood, so I politely set her straight.
Explaining my horrific adventures in trying traction and why it led to me absolutely refusing to try a Halo or get my neck fused.
Remembering not just the name of the hospital that did my surgery 19 years ago--and that it's different now--but also my neurosurgeon. (I mean, considering that I couldn't recall the words "vertebra" or "vertebrae" for the life of me in one visit.)
I had no idea walking into these appointments that I needed to study first.

Yesterday, my neurologist prescribed a migraine-related painkiller. When I talked to my pharmacy today, they said my insurance doesn't cover it, and paying out of pocket for 40 tablets would be... $6,000. My reaction was literally "PFFFFFFT!"

New hairstyle for Nathalie. She didn't hug Adrien back. π’
"I could never replace Adrien's mother" he doesn't want you to! You're doing him a disservice!! Just hug him back or pat his head! Say a kind word! Not whatever the heck you're doing now.
Never thought we'd see Adrien's grandparents... Damn where were Gabrielle's parents all Adrien's life?! And Emilie's poor mother who probably didn't protect Emilie due to the controlling father.
I think...I missed an episode from last season, the one where Gabriel dies apparently??
I'm very curious about that food, it must have something to do with cheese if Plagg wants it.
She finally hugged him back!! Aw Gorilla teared up.
6x06: Climatiqueen
Rose is so ugly now. π Someone tried to say 'it's just them showing she's sickly in her design now' but she doesn't look necessarily sickly to me, it's multiple things going on I don't like.
...Why did Adrien only make them one small pancake each? I eat 4 at the minimum;;
Gorilla spraying the paparazzi with the hose. X'D
Marinette kissing all over Adrien's face. π
Aw, poor Aglae... Aurore gets akumatized...again.
I can't be very mad at Marinette this time for trying to help Adrien find his passion, she saw how it upset him and thought she could help. It is true though that sometimes it takes time to find it and sometimes you don't have some big ~passion~. I mean, I guess I could say my big passion is reading but I'm not a booktuber or some big spender on it.
Marinette's excuse to slip away is her stuff left behind possibly getting destroyed but Ladybug always fixes stuff like that.
Too bad Adrien's passion is being a superhero, he can't exactly talk to anyone about it, plus he can't do that in his civilian life... Plus, someday there will be no akuma if they take care of Lila.
Seems like Max could've easily gotten Aurore a signed copy of his mom's book.
