isaac, infodumping at length to me about asoiaf: and further north is the wall, and behind the wall are the others, and they can turn corpses into mindless soldiers and they want to kill everyone–

me, interrupting: i want to know absolutely everything about them. i want the books to be about them. what is their deal i am obsessed

isaac: ah. well. so that's basically all we know,

me: incredibly rude of grrm but okay. tell me more about the targaryens then i guess

me, later, infodumping about the witcher: okay so the way magic works is weird because no one but the dwarves and gnomes are native to this dimension & humans have only been here a millenia and a half & they have to kinda cheat to use magic–

isaac, interrupting: wait they're not native to this dimension?

me: yeah they're possibly from earth, which is somewhere else. the continent has these weird big spire things that are in some way connected to other dimensions. elves arrived in ships tho

isaac: what. what. i need so much more information holy shit what do you mean the humans killed almost all the elves if they basically only just got there

me: well. see. yknow how asoiaf wont answer my others questions?

isaac: dammit. rude. tell me about the mages then, i guess

#yelling at clouds #i did have to yell about the mages after learning about the. oh i do not remember how it's spelled. the maesters? asoiaf's one university #anyway. we don't actually have the exact same tastes in media but it's v funny to me how we do both zero in on the most esoteric shit
