Round 113, Hour 19
Feb. 20th, 2021 06:02 pmThis hour appears to be all about research, what esoteric subject have you had to look up for a fic lately? Have you ever found anything you researched for a fic that came in handy at work or elsewhere and did you have a good excuse ready for why you knew it?

Though to be fair I did my own in sound design, so there’s any amazing multitude of radio/microphone/sound related oddness - from heist comms to spyware to audio based ‘enchanted interrogation techniques’ - that can be swept under that if need be!
