Say Hello to My Little Friends

[maychorian]

Soooo, I know I haven't been posting much lately. Been feeling pretty icky, what with everything and all. I was going to post another 4.17 reaction post, you know, more actual thoughts on the episode instead of a brief squeefest about Dean's eyelashes, but I just didn't have the heart. Maybe I'll do one later, but basically what it boils down to is that I loved the episode right up until the big reveal. I loved it when it was Sam bringing his brother back to the light, so earnest and puppy-eyed and excited about hunting people and saving things, and I completely adored their utter cuteness, but the end felt like a cheap trick. Whatever.

I have happy news of happiness! What with Wallace being gone, my Sebastian rattie was all alone, and I can definitely tell that he was feeling the loneliness. He's usually very standoffish, for one, but lately he's been coming to me for skritchies. Awww, poor old man. Here he is sniffing my sneakers:



But yeah, that's not enough. So I went and got the most adorable little dumbo rat there ever, ever was. His name is Bartleby, and I adore him:



Aw, isn't he just made of ♥? He's very small, still pretty much a puppy. His fur is very soft and he's very, very cuddly and clingy. He's easily startled and frightened, and whenever that happens it's a race for my neck so he can cling to my shirt and cuddle under my chin. I do not object to this.

The introduction to Sebastian is not going as well as I'd hoped, so far, but I have a few more tricks up my sleeve.
