For people who don't know, the fundraiser works like this: people donate to Worldbuilders and they're automatically entered to win geeky swag in the lottery. We're just starting week two and we're already giving away more than $40,000 of books and games.

If you can find someone like that, someone who you can hold and close your eyes to the world with, then you're lucky.

My shrug was so nonchalant it would make a cat jealous
