really liked this movie. not quite my favorite of del Toro's movies that I have seen, but I think maybe the best-done of them.

they're not even fortunes! the first time there were ads in the fortune cookies it was something else and like, they were still fortunes iirc... possibly themed fortunes, but... not just, jokes or calls to action.

@aescling alas. :<

writing about sex
@Lady that is indeed very much the opposite of my problem. i am writing in a close, intimate perspective, and i'm thinking that perhaps, although the protagonist is somewhat repressed when it comes to the targets of her sexuality (at this point), that might not also be the case about the bare fact of her being a sexual being.
