You know what I miss? Those little individual kudos notifications, that would sometimes pop up when you were doing something else and add a little yay! to an otherwise blah day.

I mean, I get that there are reasons, and the digest is nice too. I just... miss them.

I've spend the last week, because I discovered that two episodes back-to-back made for fantastic bedtime telly, watching The Legend of Korra.

I spent the first half of the series thinking: Well, this is fun, but it's not as good as Avatar. Then again, A:tLA is a weird show in that you can be sitting watching an episode of Avatar, especially some of the early ones, while thinking, yeah, this is nice but it's not as good as Avatar.

But round about the halfway mark it really picked up, and I had a hard time restricted myself to two episodes before bed. Anyway, non-spoilery reactions:

-I am now a fully paid up member of the Lin Bei Fong is awesome fanclub.

-I am presuming that somewhere on the internet, Korra/Asami is a thing that exists?

-Bolin is the bestest.

Fic rec: Crossing the River (ASOIAF, Catelyn Stark) by [archiveofourown.org profile] smirnoffmule You may be tempted to skip this because the pairing is tagged Catelyn Stark/Walder Frey, which is, yes, repulsive on a cellular level. But it's not a ship fic. What it is, is a remarkably clever and well thought out AU where Walder Frey demands a different price for letting Robb's army pass, Cat reunites with her daughters and is generally awesome, and Walder Frey gets what he deserves. 'tis brilliant.
