Nevanna's Forest of Stories

My cartoon-watching group has started watching X-Men: Evolution, and... if you've been following along, you're well aware of how I feel about that show. You know how some cartoons make us go "OMG my childhood?" This one is completely "OMG my awkward high school years!"

Between schoolwork and my rotating schedule at the bookstore, I cannot guarantee that I'll be able to watch every week. Still, I was glad to be able to catch the first few episodes, because they include "The X-Impulse," which was not the first episode I saw, but definitely the one that got me interested in the show when it was first airing. Because... because Lance and Kitty, you guys. Despite being much more critical of Lance's behavior in their introductory adventure than I was when I was a starry-eyed sixteen-year-old shipper, I remember why I was so invested in them as a couple, and I remember really liking the course that their relationship took, and his redemption arc in general.

I could say more about those two - in fact, I have - but it is time to wash some dishes and get ready for work.
