Those fainting goats are awesome. I mean, the poor little guys are so gangly to begin with, and then you add in a disorder liable to send them ass over teakettle at any given time? The universe totally has a sense of humor. *g*
My arthropod rules: crustaceans yay, six legs fine, eight legs NO.
This gave me Animal Farm flashbacks. I wonder what the casting would have been, had Orwell been into insects and the like, instead... *g*
Sorry about the spider trauma. A much larger portion of the world than I'd figured is really freaked out by them, it seems. I'm actually okay with them, which probably explains my underestimation, but snakes are my kryptonite. Even on TV they freak me out... which of course means that everyone I know believes that I have to meet their snake. I really wish that were a bad euphemism, but no. How did I get to know this many reptilephiles?
And... and sweet, all young wubs amidst the spiders.
Hee. Thanks. Substitute "marauding bandits," "mysterious plagues," and "the occasional sorcerous murderer" for "spiders" and you pretty much have the show itself, in a nutshell. Also, there is a morally-questionable dragon who spends most of his time cackling merrily about how much these two are meant for each other. The fact that I am not even slightly exaggerating here - no, seriously, there's this whole thing about how they're the other sides to the same coin, and Merlin's the half to Arthur's whole - keeps the fandom in no end of glee, too. *tempts slyly*
