I've read The Hobbit, and I liked it. (I think) it's less depressing than Babylon 5. I don't think I like [Babylon 5], but I would need to watch more of it to really know.

*"atemporal", used to refer to aspects of a work of fiction among other things. I don't think there's a real abbreviation for this.

Talia sat down on the mushroom, but it ate her. Her cat became very sad. Then the dog ate the mushroom, and everything was fine again.
