kvknowsherfun: 12minds totally spotted Lacey and I in the Chinatown Metro station. Thanks for saying hi! It was totally random, only a little awkward at first “Er, hi…are you on tumblr? I love your stuff and you’re so awesome and I’m restraining myself from hugging you! Also, I’m 12minds….and Hi.” Either way, it was random and really cool bumping into...
