ZAPPED! Prestadigitonium!
That must have been the spell @MerlinEmrys used to send these beauties to my mailbox:
This fabulous guy zapped me two beautiful Mulan pins that I wasn't sure I would get for myself. Backstory: not long after Merlin opened requests for the WiR2 boxes, which I eagerly requested, my mental health took a nose-dive. I knew I wouldn't be up for trading, so I asked Merlin to take me off the list. (Backstory backstory: this is not the first time I have done this. In addition to so generously doing pickups, Merlin is also extremely gracious about changes to requests. [Within limits, people. Let's not take advantage of the man's generosity.])
With changes to my meds and more frequent therapy, I'm doing better, but it's a long road (as so many of you know). To be handed a tangible reminder that someone out there cares and thinks I'm worthy to receive a kind gesture... well, in the words of Martha Stewart, it's a good thing.
