Moon Knight

Moon Knight 1.01 is pretty fun once you get past the opening which yeek.

1.02 pretty much lays out what's up, chooses a moral stance, and has an invisible monster fight.

1.03 is fighty and Khonshu is a bad debater.

Layla (ft. Moon Knight) 1.04 had some very varied portrayals of mythological beings.

1.05 and I want a Taweret plushie because (a) adorable and (b) I need something to hug.

The Princess Bride

"Every chance she has to be defiant, stand her ground, and get in a good insult, she takes."

A look at Buttercup's role in The Princess Bride.

Mage: The Ascension 2022 22: Gig!

And next, going to a gig. We are allowed an actual night off.

Of course it's interrupted by monsters. But only a bit.

And Simon brings a date!

Spring

It's the first day of spring, and looking out the window I'm quite glad Tony Bennett doesn't rule the world because we'd flood.

Mage: The Ascension 2022 21: Sword fight!

Didi's night is improved by getting to "distract" one of the fancy vampires bidding on the stolen enchanted sundial by batting her lashes and flaunting her neck.

Cara's night is definitely improved by the chance to fight a sword duel with the Unseelie Sidhe knight trying to steal it.

Used correctly it can alter the day and night cycle. Vampires and other things want it, and not just to mess with Daylight Savings.

Easter

Maltesers egg this year, as last year. (Not a complaint.)

Addendum: TWO. Mwahahaha

Two years

As of today I've basically been staying home for two years. Looking back at the early days, the surge of free books and games and music and videos really helped.

Mage: The Ascension 2022 20: Auction!

So now we have to sneak into an occult artefact auction.

"Do we get to dress up?"
"Would a 'no' working even be possible?"

We get to meet many interesting people and not-exactly-people.

Vampire Slayer Player

I'd like to play a proper Buffy game again. Our Mage game skewed that way, obviously, but not all the way.

Pancakes!

Happy Mardi Gras! And/or Pancake Day! And St. David's Day!

And Mardi Gras parade livestreamed! I want to go to there.
