Well, don't I feel dumb. I admit to not really focusing on much of Ta-152's screentime when they deign to give her any and I've barely read any of the manga (it's an absolute pig to find legally in the UK and I want to reward them with cash money), so I sort of conflated them unnecessarily. Mea culpa. =]

That and really genki characters are literally my kryptonite. There isn't a single one I've seen in anime or manga that I haven't wanted to calm down via a prolonged Happy Fun Time Interlude involving two sledgehammers. Why two? In case one breaks.

I am something of a grouch without my antidepressants.

FiMFiction.net: we might accept blatant porn involving the cast of My Little Pony but as God is my witness we have standards.

I miss being able to at least fake being able to function.
