Got a WIP you're excited about? Want to rave about your fave? Or is your fandom absolutely in love with a character who detracts from every scene they bumble into, and you need somewhere to vent? You're in the right place!

And... why is that quoted? Like what else are you going to have lapsang souchong for? Did the author just want to let the reader know that a smoky tea existed? It's like, "He added to the water some ice cubes ('for the coolness')". idgi.

Excuse me, but no mathematical model of reality is superior to my model of 7 words: "If it can go wrong, it will".
