“But I must be paid also,” said the witch, “and it is not a trifle that I ask. You have the sweetest voice of any who dwell here in the depths of the sea, and you believe that you will be able to charm the prince with it also, but this voice you must give to me; the best thing you possess will I have for the price of…

If you ever watch this series in a sitting or two, I think you'll find Sayaka's plot moves along at just the right pace. But we'll….get to that. :)

So you wanted something familiar and safe, I get it. =P

Still need to finish reading the little mermaid so I can actually comment on this episode…

Haha, apparently, but I think that works out in this case.

Ah, I had read that but didn't see that name there. I'm sure you went searching yourself, though. How dare you not rely solely on what others tell you? You'd be bad at religion.

I know, but part of the reason I wanted to do these was so that I could learn to write on a consistent basis. Plus I just feel bad, which is weird again because I don't care when you post yours late at all. Again, the Sayaka complex.

I don't think I've heard of that…but that sounds tempting!

I think you'd be less inclined to know that if you did enjoy that song.

I'm sorry, I'll probably answer tomorrow again. I've been working overtime at work. Today it's gonna be 4 hours overtime, so with commuting, it's a 14 and a half hour day, which leaves me little time. I feel bad, but I also don't have much I can do about it. =/

You're right. I never thought about it as her making excuses for herself, but it makes so much sense. It's the kind of shit I'd pull mentally since I do that a lot. Let things fester until something prevents me from pursuing what I want and then I just blame that because it's easier. It's probably why I never noticed…

Kyubey:

"Just when I was thinking she was someone with brains and beauty, it turns out she's a crazy New Age weirdo!"

See, I feel like I never have time for movies, even though I can consistently sit down and watch an infinite amount of television episodes. Without structured breaks telling me it's okay to stop paying attention, I don't. So just thinking about watching a film is overwhelming. And yet when I do sit down to watch one…

Will respond more in a bit or tomorrow, but for now:

Pokemon Alpha Sapphire for me..

Please do!

I'm currently drinking because I'm stressed from my mafia game and work so if you respond tonight, I'll either incoherently respond or wait until tomorrow.

It ripped off Disney while being it's own mess of a story, since it's technically a sequel. But yeah, that sounds like a good pairing.
