    Fine advice, but unfortunately not human nature.


It's a quote from Avengers #58, origin of the Vision.

    I might see if I can squeeze that into something. I already have one story running late because work deadlines stomped all over it. I haven't been able to write anything for over a week now.


The pressures of work are mounting up, I admit. But today's distraction was trying to get Amazon's Audible to give me my free copy of my Gideon Cain audiobook. I've been trying to make sense of their system and "promo codes" for two hours and have now given up.


    Quote:
    Lara has a completely random sleep schedule due to her time as a superhero and then a semi-celebrity. That means her breakfast might be at weird times of the day, so whatever she eats is usually light and depends on how close she is to semi-normal meal times for the rest of the world. Sometimes that means no breakfast at all.



    Quote:
    Generally, though, she'd be eating fruit or a really unhealthy cereal like Cinnamon Toast Crunch.


Does she miss the cereal brands from home?


    Quote:
    Her music collection is equally random, containing everything from metal to rap to pop music to classical, sometimes in no particular order. She spent most of high school listening to music and developed multiple tastes. And then upon becoming semi-famous, she would have artists send cutting edge music to her as a gift.


I think we have to assume that with certain differences the music and movie industries are common to both her worlds.


    Quote:
    Of course, she'd remember everything. It's more like a conscious abandonment of the previous life and starting anew. Faite has the ability to change her appearance drastically, and Lara doesn't, but there's still a parallel there.


After a while, remembering five hundred funeral anniversaries each day of the year has got to be a downer.
