I feel like it would be a lot easier to enjoy seeing my brother again after far too long if both of us weren't feeling especially hermit-y lately. So instead I am staying up waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too late and answering comments (mostly on Ao3) and reading yuletide fic.
We managed to go to the cinema to see Star Wars: The Force Awakens (IT WAS CERTAINLY A STAR WARS MOVIE -- it's basically very Star Wars, from plot to worldbuilding to scene composition even, in places. Also that one dude looks nothing like either of his parents /end Star Wars thoughts) and we saw some Leverage (re-re-re-re-re-re-(re?)-watch) and Shawshank Redemption (I always cry at either the "Brooks was here" scene or the opera scene -- this time it was the opera scene -- and man, that one last shot is fucking perfect, just the silence and the wide open sea as the camera pans out) so that was good. I just wish we could do more, because he's leaving tomorrow :(
Also he asked me if what I was watching was any good to which I replied "Nah. It's the latest BBC Sherlock, but at least I don't need to use my brain, which is good because I'm in no state to". I feel like this is maybe -- just maybe -- a flaw when talking about a show about Sherlock Holmes, but what do I know and it's not like it's exactly a new flaw. (Also Hooper was really hot, wowza.) So I recced him The Librarians, instead.

I enjoyed doing this challenge last year, it was tons of fun.
