  • Pure delight

    I just started listening and I am gasping and giggling like a school girl. It’s so fun and delightful to listen to an in-depth dive into fanfic by such wonderful hosts.

    Also as soon as Amy mentioned vivisection in like episode 1 I knew she was a Danny phantom girly, which may say more about the amount of fic I’ve consumed that I immediately made that connection.
