It's not an official anniversary. I couldn't tell you the date it started. But my parents first started noticing I just wasn't sleeping when I was 2. Some brains don't switch modes so easily. We walled off a bit of our lounge for an extra bedroom so I wouldn't keep my 12 y-o sister up.

You see because it was in emergency measures to cool me. Sweating doesn't happen cos my body thinks I'm cold. And of course the hotter it makes me, the colder it reads me, so it continues to stoke those fires. This is the first time it's triggered my lungs' emergency thermostat.

I'd never make it to being a billionaire cos I'd keep using the money my money would somehow continue to make to try & actually help people. Cos what's the fucking point of any of it otherwise. All the things I actually need/want for myself cost at best a few grand altogether.

*over And at a fresh, active accident scene too.
I just couldn't. The going to the bottom of the deep ocean in a glass bathysphere in season 1 was bad enough. It's fair enough that protagonists don't have to be directly likable but they shouldn't be actual irredeemable monsters.

And tbf to Departure "it's not as good once Christopher Plummer leaves" is practically a tautology but that's also not what went wrong with that show.
I don't know if they recaptured earlier heights of intrigue cos they lost me at their investigation taking precedence of life-saving efforts.

Like what even of value is there to contribute to these two strangers beyond they seem to make each other happy & I hope it works out for them?
She's a catch he landed? What's he gonna do? Lay her in ice til he gets back to port?
Some idioms really aren't worth keeping.

This business survived The Depression, a World War & everything that came after but Troy & Alasdair wanted it for their portfolios or some shit & thousands of people lose their livelihoods, not to mention the best Afternoon Tea on most highstreets.
