how did you get into your favourite series? (odd squad, dw, selfie etc)
Odd Squad (copied from my bio in the discord server haha): I was browsing around the PBS Kids website around Thanksgiving 2014 (before OS officially aired). I saw that PBS Kids was going to release a new show called Odd Squad and went on a rant about how PBS Kids was going downhill with these new shows. Then I watched the first two episodes that were already on the website. I discovered that the premise was actually pretty good and the acting was great. I started watching new episodes about every week. Became officially obsessed (i.e. stalking the OS Wikia and Odd News, reading fanfic and theories, etc) after Trials and Tubulations
Doctor Who: Back in high school, DW was one of the shows that I refused to watch bc everyone I knew was obsessed with it. Fastforward to a few years later before I got a tumblr account, I was following some people’s blogs for Captain canary (one of my ships), and they were also posting about tenrose. I started to read some fics (aka a lot of fics) and started watching some of S2 and got bored. Around that time, I also saw blogs posting about Whouffaldi and was curious. I found a blog that had some episode recs and started with Mummy on the Orient Express. Twelve’s run is the only one I’ve completely finished (besides Nine’s which I caught up on later)
Selfie: I’ve seen some gifs of the show before but about a month ago, I saw a gifset and was like “yes I want to watch this now” and proceeded to binge watch all 13 episodes that night haha, and I love it so much!! It shouldn’t have been cancelled *cries*
And while I’m still here are some other shows:
Little Lunch is one of my favorite shows that I discovered at the dentist. I was intrigued by the episode that I saw and tried my best to find it (it’s an Australian show). A few years later, Youtube recommended The InBESTigators to me, which was created by the same people who made Little Lunch (these shows are why I really wanted a mockumentary mmni show hahaha)
Elementary and Leverage - I have @incendiaglacies to thank for telling me to watch them :) (I am still confused how I managed to finished so many seasons in like 2 months but it happened somehow hahaha)
Thanks for the ask!

My Niece by hell-vira
My sister has two daughters. I try to be fairly active in their lives though we do not live in the same town. I took some time off over the summer to finish a creative project but also to help out with our aging father who's had some health problems.
Being back in our hometown, in the house where I grew up, has been pretty great. I haven't been back here since high school. After college, I moved away so it has been a while.
My two nieces are adorable. Stella is four years old and Pearl is six. Both are little blondes with ringlet curls and big blue eyes. Everyone says Stella is my twin. Our baby pictures are almost identical. I guess you could say she's my favorite though I try to be a fun Aunt to both girls.
I always thought Pearl was kind of an odd little girl. She's fairly quiet for a kid but I've not really spent a ton of time around her to be a good judge. I just know she strikes me as an unusual kid.
It all started about two months ago. A family friend decided to gift the girl's a puppy. My sister thought pet ownership would instill some responsibility in them. She created a schedule for the girls to help feed the puppy and allowed them to take it out back into the fenced yard for potty breaks. The puppy was cute. Pearl didn't seem too interested in the dog but Stella immediately took up with the puppy. It was her new best friend and I got a kick out of watching her march around the yard with this tiny dog clumsily following behind a few steps.
One evening, I was clearing up some dinner dishes at my dad's house when I got a phone call from my sister.
Leanne was frantic on the phone. Crying hysterically, she told me that she needed to see me. Her husband was out of town on business and she desperately needed me. She assured me everyone was okay but begged me to please hurry on over.
Leanne lives only a few blocks from my dad so I didn't even bother driving. It was a lovely summer evening so I chose to walk over. I could tell my sister was very upset. I kind of assumed maybe it was something like she caught her husband, Greg, cheating because of her level of panic.
I arrived at the house to find my sister weeping in the living room. She had been crying for a little while because her eyes were red and puffy.
I plopped down on her oversized sofa and asked casually, "Whats up?"
Leanne wiped her nose and said, "Oh my god. It's absolutely terrible. I don't know what to do."
"Did you check Greg's Facebook or something? Let me guess he's not out of town on a business trip at all but rather shacked up with some young intern at her college dorm room..."
My sister snapped at me, "No, psycho. Thats not it at all. It's Pearl."
"What's the matter with Pearl? Is she okay?" I asked feeling more concerned now.
Leanne sighed, "I don't know."
"Well, what happened? What's the problem?"
She blew her nose again, "Its just so awful. I can't believe my baby girl would do this."
My impatience was growing, "What did she do Leanne?"
"Well, I was getting Stella ready for bed. She usually goes to sleep by 8. I let Pearl stay up until 8:45 most nights. So I'm reading Stella a story and when I've finished up, I turn the lights off and start walking down the hall. I hear water running. The girls have already had a bath so naturally I'm curious. The door was closed but not locked. I knock first and ask, 'Pearl, are you okay honey?' and she doesn't respond so I open the door and you'll never believe what I saw."
"What? What happened?"
Leanne started sobbing again, "Pearl was leaning over the bathtub and she had the puppy, Joe. At first I thought she was giving him a bath but then I realized what she was doing. She was trying to drown the puppy. She was holding him under. I could see him struggling, fighting her as much as he could but he's so tiny."
"Are you sure thats what she was doing?"
Leanne nodded, "I snatched him up but it was too late. I tried saving him but he died. I wrapped him in a blanket and he's out in the garage."
"Well, what did she say? Did you punish her?"
Leanne wept, "She told me she didn't know he'd do that. She didn't know he would die. She was so eerily calm when she said it, too. I sent her to bed."
"Did you call Greg?" I asked.
She nodded, "I did. He was very upset. He said Pearl should have to be responsible for burying the puppy."
I agreed, "I'm not a parent but that seems reasonable. Maybe it'll have some impact on her."
I just couldn't believe what I'd heard. My niece had drown a puppy.
The next day, my sister made Pearl bury the dog in the backyard. She tried to keep the information from Stella but of course the poor kid discovered her dog had died and was very upset. Leanne did not explain what had happened to the dog.
A few weeks later, around the fourth, my sister's neighborhood had a block party. She invited dad and I to come over and enjoy some food and festivities.
My sister had specifically told Pearl she was not allowed to climb up in the neighbor boy's tree house so when one of the kids fell and the ambulance had to be called, my sister was pretty pissed that Pearl had been in the tree house.
"This kid is so defiant," She told me.
I had no grounds to believe Pearl was responsible for pushing the kid out of his tree house but this big part of me just knew that's what happened. I didn't say anything to my sister but I had this weird feeling.
I told my father that I thought there was something wrong with Pearl. He chuckled and assured me that kids are curious and do bad things sometimes but its just because they don't know any better.
After the fourth, I became increasingly aware of Pearl's every move. If we were hanging out or she was visiting my dad, I watched her like a hawk. She mostly played alone not engaging much with Stella. I didn't witness anymore peculiar behavior than that but I guess if I am telling the truth I didn't really care for her much.
Then a couple of days ago, something else happened.
My sister had sent the girls to Vacation Bible School at their church. It was a week long evening event that gave my sister some free time. She could go to yoga class and asked me to tag along.
On the first night, Leanne was informed that Pearl had gotten into trouble for wandering off from her class. She had asked to go to the bathroom but was found in the choir robe closet. Pearl says she got lost but my sister told her she knew very well that Pearl knew her way around the church. It turns out the robe closet wasn't really a closet at all but rather a room/office used for storing stuff like choir robes and flower arrangements.
On the fourth night of bible school, a terrible accident occurred. When we went to pick the kids up, there was a lot of activity and emergency services and police.
Tragedy had happened and no one seemed to have answers. One of the kid's from Stella's class, a little boy named Drew, had gone to the bathroom and disappeared. When he didn't come back, the teacher had gone to search for him.
The boy was found floating in the baptismal pool in the sanctuary.
"The only way to access the pool is from the robe closet," I overheard one of the parents say who was also there to pick up their child.
On the car ride home, Leanne simply told the kids an accident had happened but didn't go into further detail.
About two days later, my sister had a dentist appointment and asked me if she could bring the girls over for two hours. They could visit with my dad and maybe I could make them some lunch.
Stella and my dad were playing with some jewelry art kit at the dining room table. I wasn't sure where Pearl had gotten off to but did a sweep of the house looking for her.
My dad said, "Check the basement. Sometimes she goes down there to play with her dolls."
I forgot about the basement. My dad has a partially finished basement with a den area that he turned into a playroom for the grand kids. Pearl has a doll house down there.
I crept down the stairs. The light was on and dolls and other toys were strewn about the floor. I noticed the light on in the laundry room so I rounded the corner.
Pearl was on a step ladder leaning over the stainless steel laundry sink which was filled with water. She had a baby doll which she was plunging in the water. She'd take its head and shove it down hard into the water and hold it there then bring it up and do it again. I watched her for what felt like an eternity. I was stunned.
"Pearl," I snapped, "What the hell are you doing?"
She turned and looked at me with no expression, "Just playing, Auntie."
