I dunno, sometimes it feels much better to have a neutral word to describe a neutral reality rather than being defaulted to "gay" at best and "frigid bitch" at worst

the real reason why d gray man is the best is because you reach a certain point in the story where you go "okay, there's no way that things can get any worse for allen than they already are" and then you watch in real time as allen's life falls into further disrepair at a level you'd thought impossible to achieve. and then you repeat this process another 3 times until you arrive at the last chapter hoshino-sensei released, published a year ago

May 3rd, Jonathan Harker’s journal
(Mem., get recipe for Mina.) I asked the waiter, and he said it was called “paprika hendl,” and that, as it was a national dish, I should be able to get it anywhere along the Carpathians.
I had for breakfast more paprika, and a sort of porridge of maize flour which they said was “mamaliga,” and egg-plant stuffed with forcemeat, a very excellent dish, which they call “impletata.” (Mem., get recipe for this also.)
Recipe blog casually interrupted by nightmares and the howling of wild dogs. I’m sure it’s nothing.

Travels with Jonathan Harker, in pictures
If our good friend Jonathan Harker had sent us some photos along with his lovely email, here's what he might have included. All photos are as close to contemporary as I could find.
Left Munich at 8:35 P. M.:
arriving at Vienna early next morning:
Buda-Pesth seems a wonderful place, from the glimpse which I got of it from the train and the little I could walk through the streets:
We left in pretty good time, and came after nightfall to Klausenburgh:
All day long we seemed to dawdle through a country which was full of beauty of every kind. Sometimes we saw little towns or castles on the top of steep hills such as we see in old missals:
sometimes we ran by rivers and streams which seemed from the wide stony margin on each side of them to be subject to great floods:
The women looked pretty, except when you got near them, but they were very clumsy about the waist. They had all full white sleeves of some kind or other, and most of them had big belts with a lot of strips of something fluttering from them like the dresses in a ballet, but of course there were petticoats under them:
(on the left: the Romanian royal family in peasant cosplay in the early 1900s; on the right, a photoshoot of Romanian national dress in 1868)
It was on the dark side of twilight when we got to Bistritz, which is a very interesting old place:
Bonus: a postcard Jonathan might have picked up for Mina.
