Paul Maki, self-proclaimed Idjit, makes episode-by-episode reviews of television shows. An eclectic mix of short run shows, animated, and older television is reviewed along with biographic tidbits, cultural artifacts, and general weird stuff.
Paul returns with a surprise, unexpected additional fragment ahead of the holiday one. This follows on from the preceding fragment, just as was always intended. Jeremy found himself cold and alone after Steve unexpectedly manifested teleportation powers. He is taken in by a mysterious woman, who appears to have powers of her own.

This may be the last non-festive fragment you’ll get during Dog Days of Advent, planning and life and writing and such all got the best of me. This follows on not too much longer after the previous fragment, though there is sneaking out to a pub, a doppelganger discovery, and an encounter with an evil mage that we have skipped past to get to this point. I’m hoping you’ve enjoyed these peeks at the story I’ve been meaning to tell, well for quite some time now, let’s say.

Next up as part of Dog Days of Advent, Paul jumps forward a bit in that first story, skipping past a dying grandfather, the tedium of getting back to school, an inherited box with medallions and a spectacular transport between worlds that really hasn’t been visualized just yet. Trust me it is trope-y and yet still pretty cool, or may be cool one day.

Here, Paul is falling behind on Dog Days of Advent. He’s not giving up entirely, but the number of written segments is a bit low, considering the date. So another fragment, this one firmly placed before the events of Really Big Things, in fact, it is intended to be the very first part of the story, ever, telling the story in Paul’s designated order.

Paul now attempts to share a set of fragments that have drifted about in his head like Duluth’s nonexistent snowflakes (this year). This is the first, a gift if not actually Christmasy. A dark bit of a peek at a not-very-nice person. This fragment is set in the Really Big Things Multiverse, at an indeterminate time relative to the original serial. This is fragment one of an undetermined number, ideally twelve, but who can say?
