That sounds so fun! I'm glad you got to finally meet and geek out with them! I don't think I've ever gotten around to commenting on it when you've mentioned it before, but I LOVE that you have that license plate, and I would probably resort to honking, high-speed chases, and/or leaving my number on the windshield if I ever unexpectedly saw a qt plate.
About 4 years ago, in the college spirit of late-night socializing with people you slightly know, I left a rather boring party with some acquaintances and went to the campus cafe. It has an upstairs area where you can look down at the tables below and up at some lovely rafters (https://apps.carleton.edu/reason_package/reason_4.0/www/images/735422.jpg), and something about it always made me think of that atrium in KoA - the one Gen takes a shortcut through after the rooftop scene - even if the details and rafter placement don't quite match up.
So, when I mumbled something about the ceiling reminding me of a bit from a book, one of the acquaintances asked which one .... and then she turned out to be a huge fan as well! It was so exciting and unexpected. We had a great conversation that night, and I emailed her when we learned about Thick as Thieves last year, but sadly we never became proper friends. I'm pretty sure she isn't/wasn't on Sounis, but, who knows, maybe we'll reconnect someday.
