…And then, he turned it on. I was speechless. All the burn marks, all the scars, all the mis-shapen tan lines and freckles, they were all completely gone. “Wow, you really weren’t kidding!” I said. “I’m a genius,” Rod agreed.
So I recently learned that Nintendo is gonna make a Zelda movie, just like they did with the Mario movie. I’m pretty sure we all kinda knew that was gonna happen eventually. And I’m impressed with the choice to make it live-action. That suits the series much better than animation, I think, just like the…
Jacita gazed out at the sunset as a medium-sized airship thundered by. Its massive engines blew her hair all over her face. She didn’t even blink.
