So, wait...if your co-worker, who likes sci-fi but doesn't call any particular fandom his own counts as "medium"...what's a small?
"I've heard of a phaser and didn't puke"?
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's not like crime stuff, where I assume I will like it all...
Okay, but you're a crime freak. Let's not understate that.
I just think the whole fandom thing counts for a whole lot.
I apologise to everyone--I'm the person with the stinky lunch at her desk. I'm also the idiot drinking OJ when she knows it will give her a stomach ache. But I miss it.

It's not that he doesn't call a fandom his own--it's that he isn't in fandom. He's just a fan, but has no community. But he likes sci fi as a genre, and seeks entertainment out on that basis. But he doesn't strike relationships up because of it.
Small? I'd say likes a little, incidentally.

You're tainted by fandom, lady, own it.

So, Gracie has started giggling aloud. It's a breathy little chortle. You can hear and see it here: [link] The first noise is her laughing and then she laughs again after she leaves P, the nurse, and has almost reached me.

Because books.
I never drink juice anymore because of the diabetes. Although I do eat, um, cake and stuff. But juice is such a pure shot of sugar! And it's no chocolate, that's for sure.

I have shows like that. I like "My Boys" but I wouldn't post about it, mostly.

Are these her first noises? That's so cool.

Orange juice is a pure shot of acid. And it's not even quality OJ. I should really be sacrificing for the good stuff. But twice a week I have a meeting with a guy who drinks OJ during it, and I'm a weak person with bad pain aversion conditioning.
I'm sure the spicy lunch isn't helping. My god, I ruin myself.
But juice is such a pure shot of sugar!
Normally my juice consumption is diluted half and half with water. But diluted OJ is teh nast.
