My Cult Santa managed to sort through the rambling, mostly idiotic info I posted to "help" and zoned in on my two most favorite characters of all time. I got an Ellen Ripley Funko and the Ahsoka Tano novel "Ahsoka," by EK Johnston (not pictured, I already took it home). I read the book this weekend and it was just as amazing as I had hoped it would be, and Ripley gets a place of honor on my desk, right next to Ahsoka. They're the focal point of my desk so anytime I need a little boost I just look down from my monitors and there they are.

It's like a babbled to my Santa - these are the two most important women in sci-fi, and if you disagree I will physically fight you. OK not really. But 11 year old me saw the badassery in Ripley, and 41 year old me frickin' loves Ahsoka. Santa, you did awesome and I love your gifts!! Thank you! <3
