2011 - I don't remember much of this year. It's the last year at the Evol Empire, first year at the lab... so a lot of change.

Thor - Do I have issues with the myth breaking? Yes. But as a superhero movie goes, it was a fun romp. (Personal opinion, the Thor franchise is a bit weaker overall than some of the others).
Captain America: The First Avenger - I loved this one. It's the only one of the CA movies I unilaterally love.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes - OH HELL YEAH. Even having a bunch of actors that I don't usually care for in it could not kill my love of this! And yes, I did watch the originals, but still love this modern take on it.
War Horse - Still uncertain why I chose to watch this, but wound up enjoying the wandering tale greatly.

Green Lantern - On the list because, much as I love Hal, I despised this movie so much in the first 15 minutes I stopped watching it.
Transformers: Dark of the Moon - The novelization was better, and it spawned epic AUs from me and my co-writer at the time.

Janette, reflecting over lessons

Lessons in Living and Death

There had been a time when Janette had been certain she knew just what life, and death, were all about. She could have all of the pretty things she wished, craft games to entertain her, and enjoy Nick's company.

Then he arrived in her city after a long absence, and things began falling apart. From his near-killing of their creator to his wanton embroilment in human policies and lives, Nick was upending every rule of her existence. His partner and his love interest alike added to the chaos.

Meeting Robert changed everything.

Losing him was a bitter lesson of loss.

Summary:

Sherman wanted Margaret's opinion

Opinions Shared

"Thank you, Mrs. Potter," Margaret said, accepting the hot mug of coffee.

"Dear, when will you call me 'Mildred'?"

Margaret shook her head. "The same day I call your husband something other than Colonel," she answered with a smile, and they laughed. That would be never, then.

"You could, you know," said husband opined, shifting in his rocking chair. "I do appreciate you swinging out here."

"I had friends at Lost in the Woods," Margaret said, making her old friend smile for the use of that particular nickname for the local army base. "Of course I was going to come here before heading to Ft. Bliss."

Mildred had settled in her own rocker, watching the vibrant woman that was like a daughter to Sherm.

"So what are your thoughts on the nursing schools from my last letter?" Sherman asked his friend and former head nurse.

"My biggest advice is to avoid any of the diploma schools," Margaret said seriously. "We're seeing a serious change in how nursing is handled, and the traction for degree programs is there." She looked vindicated and hopeful all in one. "Parker Memorial, up in Columbia has an excellent degree program. It's not the closest to you, but it's the one I think will do your granddaughter best in the long run."

"Told you," Mildred said with a nod.

"So you did," Sherman said. "From what me and the missus read up, it looks like they're taking the transition to full degrees seriously, and I know some of the staff up there."

Margaret had to smile at that. "I'd be surprised if you didn't know at least one doctor on staff at all the teaching hospitals by now. Between your children and grandchildren deciding to follow your later career."

"Better for them," Sherman avowed, nodding sagely.

Shmi doing the exasper-fond-sigh of “Anakin”... until she can't.

Exasperations

"Mom, I can make it work, give you someone to help you."

"Oh Anakin."

"Please?"

"Yes."

"What if he decides to sell you?"

"Anakin, he won't. You are too useful, and he doesn't know how to keep you healthy."

"Then… I'm never going to grow up."

"Ani!"

"Your new friends are very lost."

"I know, Mom."

"Are you being careful?"

"The Master Jedi made Watto mad, but I think it will turn out alright."

"Oh?"

"I mean, he's so wizard!"

"Of course, Ani."

"You have to hold on. I'm here. I can fix it all!"

"Ani…"

"Please, Mom."

"Anakin…"

"MOM!"
