seven years after Revolutions, and "Hi," and smiling like an idiot still make me happy. the king of dorks (and the queen he belongs to) never gets old, apparently.

HI LIZZEN. hello, warm fuzzy feelings. hello, conquering warrioress and the boy you've tamed to have your back. hello, sneaky oracle and tortured, prophetic morpheus, and the domesticity of the ship where love manifests only in stolen comfort as if forever saving energy for the war is a non-negotiable. all my favorite matrix-y things, gift-wrapped into this beauty which, reading now, felt like you'd extended a little bit of christmas into january. i absolutely wouldn't mind if The Matrix had turned out this way. :D

LATE, but: you know how much I adore this, and have since the beginning. The perfect encapsulation of Trinity feelings, with a side of badass ladies forever. Everything I ever wanted when I was fourteen! You finally gave bb-me the story she was looking for all this time.
