Flerkens can have little a glasses, as a treat  😽

As a treat for myself I commissioned this post-Shang Chi-post credits scene scene of Carol checking in on her flerken-sitter Bruce, from @sreppub who perfectly captured my vision!! 

Bruce you’re doing amazing sweetie and probably don’t even need those glasses anyway.

Today on the Christmas Checklist, my mom and i decorated the house (inside) and I made hard fudge for the first time!

Things I learned:

There is a LOT of waiting, but Attentive waiting. It took over two hours I think (estimating from the playlist I had on :P) and a lot of that was standing there waiting while the temperature went up or down the required amount. I'm guessing if I do it a few more times I'll get a better idea of how long it takes and maybe be able to sit down and do something else in-between.

You really do need a deep pot--it triples or quadruples in volume while it's boiling.

For a lot of the middle stages it is Very Gluey. This appears to be normal, judging by results.

I still have no idea how soft ball stage actually works. Thank you, candy thermometer, for making sure I don't have to.

When they say to transfer it from pot to pan quick at the essential stage, they aren't kidding. 0_0

Related: when they say it will take a while to cool properly, they apparently are kidding.

So yeah... the one downside was that it hardened while I was scooping it out, and I ended up with some big lumps + the scrapings from the pot all thrown in my pan together. HOWEVER, taste and texture came out great. It's a little crumbly, a little chewy, and more crystallized than the soft kind you find more often on stores.

Hot fudge sauce may still be the Optimal Chocolate Form--it's definitely easier, in every way--but now I can add this to my arsenal of Chocolate Products I can make at home!!

Since he seemed quite popular, enjoy some more long-haired Strickler from the Love and Music AU. We're gonna call this one a crop from a group shot of him, Otto, and a third person who in my mind is Andrei from Cultic Epithets but obviously can't be so [Insert name here] in their former band.

Blizzard To Announce Discovery Of Fourth Character Archetype

For many years, Blizzard has been leading the way in discovering every possible variation of the only three known character archetypes in fiction: Sexy Woman, Edgy Badass, and Fat Guy With Hook. Now the studio, which was the first to recognise that sometimes a Sexy Woman can be a mother, is once again at the forefront of innovation.
