Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My sister just sent me an email telling me to buy a tablet for one of my cousins.

That's it--buy a tablet.

How can she possibly think I'm willing to take that decision upon myself?

Or some innocuous supplement that comes in tablets.

Seriously. They deserve the most literal interpretation of that.

Especially since I played with said cousin's iPad last time I was home--it's the only iPad I've ever used.

It has just dawned upon me that I don't think I've ever met (or seen in real life) a white albino. All the albinos I've seen in real life/met have been black. Which is weird, statisically, if the incidence of albinism is the same across races. And I've absolutely never even heard of an Asian albino. Given the numbers, and the web, you'd think...

That thought brought to you by this Russian model: [link] There are some shots where they amped it up with makeup and/or editing in post: [link] but that would be a damned hard look to achieve with normal colouration.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

He's not a supermodel, but Deena's Aidan is albino.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You never met Joey's roommate Brooke, back in olden days? She has albinism (is I think the way she would want you to put it).

I'm so sorry, Sean.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And as long as I'm the only one posting yet, I will take this opportunity to whine: I slept like crap, have wicked cramps, my feet hurt from last night, and I have to spend the bulk of the day being helpful to my mother and cheerful with strangers. I am in NO MOOD.

At least there is a massage in my future. If I can make it that long.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

skipped some:

It'll be fine, I just... I'm the neurotic hostess. I wish I were more like Kat.

You think I'm not neurotic? Kids will have fun, though, as long as there is stuff for them to do. Adults will have fun if there is alcohol.
