You know what I hate love hate about writing Fred?

The fact that I always seem to end up at Wikipedia researching number theory or something. I mean, really: "School of Lost Souls," "Incompleteness Theorem," etc.; all my Fred fic practically requires footnotes.

As someone who is all about words rather than numbers, I concur. "MATH IS HARD!"

Math is hard, but my problem more than anything else is that I actually find philosophy of math interesting, if unintelligible. So while other people would just focus on other facets of Fred's characterization, I always end up at Wikipedia when I write her, because I need to make the fic about the math.

I can dig it. Probably because like my mom, you're a philosophy geek?

Oh here, random pic of Summer I just came across that immediately waylaid my brain and forced me to send it to you:

isn't "at wikipedia researching" kind of an oxymoron?

I don't see how. It's an encyclopedia.
