Has this ever happened to you?
Aug. 28th, 2010 08:58 pmLately, I've been seeing Gen everywhere:
-In my brother's video game, Prince of Persia (the main character was a thief! And he had a little metal thing on one of his hands, even if it was the wrong one.)
-In the musical my school is putting on this year, West Side Story (actually, mostly this was just me being mad at Tony and Maria because their relationship wasn't identical to Gen and Attolia's in every way possible.)
-In that survival show on Discovery Channel (there were elephants!)
Does this happen to you? Or am I just crazy?

And yes, it happens to me ALL the time.

Date: 8/30/10 11:54 pm (UTC)I was reading KoA last night, and I dreamt of Eugenides ALL NIGHT. I dreamt of the scene going up the steps after he kidnapped Attolia in QoA, except Attolia was Katsa. And it was all very weird.

Date: 8/29/10 02:21 am (UTC)I see sheep, I think of Gen. I loose a glove, I think of Gen. I see an orange tree, I think of Gen and Irene. Even the expression poor such and such makes me think of... Well, you probably know that one.
So far, we think the condition is a result of a Megan Whalen Turner overdoes. The only cure is to stop thinking about Gen and QT altogether. You can see why we've had no successful recovers so far.

Date: 9/1/10 12:35 am (UTC)Yes, Gen would drive me mad in real life. I'm pretty sure I would end up disliking him actually, unless I got to know him real well. The funny thing is I prefer guys like Gen in books because I know they have a good heart on the inside, but if I actually met a guy as obnoxious as he his, I'd hate him.
