(no subject)

[gothwalk]

I have an innate ability to find missing objects. This is usually referred to among family and friends as locate object, as per the D&D spell. I think it's a combination of very good peripheral vision (despite the glasses), excellent pattern matching, and a memory that will, sooner or later, dredge up everything it's ever encountered*. Sometimes, however, I have to shove it to make it work, and this tires me more than anything else I know of, up to and including channeling. It works, though.

* This sometimes leads to me saying "Never heard of it", and then being an authority on the subject ten minutes later, because my memory has had time to spin up.

Y'know, it's only due to dlscanlon that I get that at all.

*considers*

Could do worse, as nicknames go.

and here I thought Borderland stuff was required reading for TH :)

It's impossible to get here, y'see. I know every second hand bookshop in South Dublin, and a good few more in North and across the country, and I have never, ever seen a Borderland book here, except the ones I was sent from the US by the aforementioned dlscanlon. I have no idea why this is.

well, they're not that easy to find here either anymore. I got all of mine from online used book places like Powells and ABEbooks.

They're pretty darn hard to find in the US, too. Most of the anthologies are out of print, which makes finding them even harder.

I keep losing mine when I move. :-(
