Pandora Hearts 21:

AUGH, why do they insist on taking the Duchess out of everything?! I love the Duchess!

Aside from that, I felt the pacing was kind of awkward, and the impact was lessened. I did appreciate that Alice got a moment to protect Oz and be her awesome self, and I loved the music they played for the introduction of the Will.

...

In other news, I finally got around to watching a few episodes of Leverage! And... IT IS KIND OF AWESOME? I, uh, I sort of watched the first four episodes in a row.

What is this! I do not watch television! Television is boring! I don't even have a tag for television!

...Well, I am watching it on my computer, so I guess I can say it doesn't count.

The cast! They are all batshit fucking insane! (But especially Parker.) And they all have so much chemistry with each other! I almost expect any two characters to just start RANDOMLY MAKING OUT at ANY TIME. It's not even that it's sexual chemistry (...well, in some cases it is, but...), it's just that THERE'S SO MUCH OF IT. OOZING. AND STICKY. AND EVERYWHERE.

(But I swear, the slashy subtext in that one scene with Parker and Sophie and the harness had to be intentional. Either that or their actresses are banging.)
