Being deeply into the X-Men skews what you consider a minor character. Like normal people will ask me who my favorite character is and I’ll have the minimum amount of self-awareness to be like “I can’t say Tarot, the student from Emma Frost’s evil team in the 80s who died” but then I look for a better answer and I say “Blink”
College friendship is sending one of your friends who's graduating soon a giant list of monster theory and gothic horror academic reading recs so they can download as many PDFs as possible before they lose their university database access
I wish there were different words for the different types of forgetting because when I say I forgot something, I don’t mean “I forgot we had plans on Friday.” I almost always mean “I forgot today was Friday.” I know my friend’s birthday is on March 20th, but I won’t wish her happy birthday on time because I won’t know it’s March 20th on March 20th. My forgetfulness has nothing to do with not caring about/remembering events and everything to do with my inability to keep up with the passage of time.
