There was a version of Little Prince with Gene Wilder as the Fox. I have to be in the mood for that much crying to deal with The Little Prince.
The first time JZ saw Gene Wilder I think.
You never know if a girl's gonna say 'yes', or if she's gonna laugh in your face and pull out your still-beating heart and crush it into the ground with her heel.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
There are a few companies who make stuffed Little Prince Foxes. I want one. Some of them are pretty bizzare, though. I want to find one that seems friendly, although bizzare.
I also want a stuffed Toothless, but I haven't found the right one yet. And maybe an Appa.
I have a problem, don't I?

"Oh no! Has falling sky liquid once again caused you the sadness?" -Starfire
Nope! I want a Toothless (I almost go the Build-A-Bear version), and I have an Appa.
I want to buy a bunch of balloons to tie to him so he can fly, while I run around yelling "Yip yip!"

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I have bought my children a Toothless and an Appa (back in the brief window when you could get Avatar characters).
But not a Little Prince Fox.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
My son has a Toothless. My wife really wants an Appa, but the only ones I could find when she mentioned it were the movie abomination version.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I have no need for a Toothless, my black cat is basically the same if you substitute leaping freakouts for wings and destroying stuff by knocking it over rather than shooting lightning bolts at it. (Though her most impressive feat was destroying a floor lamp, so there may have been an electrical explosion involved...)

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
I also have a Toothless like cat. She had not destroyed things as successfully as yours, Matt.
I'd still love a stuffed Toothless.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
If any of you find knit patterns for either/any of those, I can make those things happen.

We're watching The Internship, and of all the things so far that have irritated me about this horrible movie, right now, I'm most irritated that they're not playing Quidditch right.

People should go see Arrival because I need to talk about it!
I walked out of it kind of rolling my eyes, but about half an hour later I was sure it was amazing. So I need to (a) see it again and (b) talk about it with my favorite talky meat.
It's a slow burn all the way through the end - very similar in pacing to the beginning of Interstellar or 2001 or Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
And I want to talk about the way it treats gender and its place in science fiction history and how it asks big philosophical questions and then answers them in very specific ways that don't undermine the validity of the questions!
