I am totally willing to be the position of listener for certain historical fandoms that have a high overlap with my fandoms :P :D

And you are great, and as I said, my partner thanks you almost as much as I do!

I do have this one friend, though, who's willing to be a listener for ANYTHING I say, as well as having no food preferences that conflict with mine, and being a good driver and willing to go pretty much anywhere I'm interested in. (His official job title was going to be "chauffeur", but since driving was going to be an occasional thing, his real job description was going to be "listener".) I need more money so I can hire him stat. :P
