That this fandom has taken its toll on your brain when you think it's perfectly normal to sit in Bertucci's, eating lobster ravioli and chatting about RPS Post Apocalyptic fic plotlines.

Go team us.

Can I just say that we got some really "special" looks from people? Yeah. Somehow, "so it has a three day incubation and kills in 8 hours?" and "Yeah, Japan is totally fucked. All those people, so close together? They'll be picking up bloated bodies out of the streets for years" seems to make people look at you oddly.

Ah, well, too bad, so sad for them. *grin*

If you want fuel for nightmares, read "The Great Influenza" by John M. Barry. It's about the worldwide flu pandemic of 1918 and it's scary as hell; the descriptions of how the victims died will chill you.

Your comment about Japan picking up bloated bodies for years is entirely possible. *shivers*



I just recently started reading your work and am extremely admiring. I'll be commenting more on specific fics later as I absorb the impact. Right now, I'm pretty speechless but for the occasional "gah!".
