I am now a little less than halfway through episode 104 of Vox Machina. And Vax's return in 103 made me tear up. Liam was as magnificent as he always is when he cranks the angst up, but it's Vex's reaction to getting her brother back, only to hear she won't get to keep him, that's truly heartbreaking.
Mom now worried about her widow's pension, because it hasn't been paid yet this month. It might just be the holiday, but we're not sure it's not supposed to be automatic. We've even wondered if the delay on the NDAA passing might be responsible, although I don't *think* it would be-but if it is, then I suppose we must be glad it passed. I can't say I'm surprised Bernie got overridden on this one. The year the National Defense Authorization Act doesn't get passed, we know DC truly has been turned upside down, and that may well happen in the future, but not this time around.
