I’d be making shocked noises that you never watched except I’m not sure I ever saw the whole thing either.
I didn’t have cable until high school (by which point I think Korra was airing) so I didn’t grow up with it and it hasn’t been on Netflix since I’ve had it until now. It’s just been my big children’s media blindspot for ages.
I've been looking through the October Daye tag, and from posts you've definitely read up to/past where I am. I'm in the middle of Red Rose Chain and Toby keeps mentioning not drinking coffee anymore and I have no memory of why??? I figured I'd ask someone who's read the books before frantically flipping through Winter Long. Thanks!
Here be spoilers, obviously, thus the cut.
So, caffeine doesn’t affect full-blooded Dochas Sidhe, which gets addressed in Chimes at Midnight--when Toby shifts the balance of her blood as far as she can toward the human end of the spectrum under the influence of the goblin fruit, she mentions that she could, in theory, get the benefit of coffee again. But, restored to her usual more-fae-than-human balance, she’s too Dochas Sidhe to get the benefit of mortal stimulants and/or alcohol, because her body recognizes them as a contaminant and processes them out of her system too fast to feel it. Think Steve Rogers, or Wolverine.
Toby gets pushed even farther along the fae/human spectrum at some point in there, which obviously makes her even more resistant to caffeine, but I’m not sure when that happens because I shoved the entire series into my brain in like eight days and have no concept of where one book ends and the next one starts.
Ashley Clements posted a picture to twitter from a table read she did of a certain script she wrote, whose title was clear from the picture. You were in the picture. 1. What information can you give about whether or not this project will come to fruition? 2. If it does happen, will you be in it? Or were you just there to be a reader for the night? I'm very excited and hopeful about this.
I can not confirm or deny anything about the reading, but I will tell you that it was amazing to be invited to crash their family reunion, and the script was wonderful.

Did you never listen to the soundtrack and notice that it kept going?
No, I never listened to the soundtrack period. I knew I would see it eventually so I never listened to the soundtrack and everything I knew about it I knew through cultural osmosis. Once the second act started, we were basically at the limit of my knowledge except that I vaguely knew that a song called For Good existed.
