Define 'fecund'

Something along the lines of
fertile.

If I remembered about the money we were supposed to be playing with, that answer would be fecund.

Okay maybe it doesn't work that way but it does mean fertile, so you are correct!

Of note: if this goes to a cat's game I'm going to switch the order of play and have xofelf go first for a change.

I'm not sure if having me go first is really going to change much tbh. I get the impression this is going to just go until one of us misses a deadline. I feel like we're both pretty good with trivia and also purposefully setting up catsgames in Tic Tac Toe.

But anyways, give me
Netflix Presents

I also want to appreciate the symmetry of this board right now.

Since going first gives some advantage of being able to pick any square, since it was a coin toss to begin with I'm not sure I want to just say that because doctorwho won the coin toss. When one of you wins a board I wouldn't switch.

If I can't stump you with this board or the next board I will discuss options with both of you on how to proceed since if I cannot produce hard enough questions this won't end. As fun as it is pumping out trivia questions I'm sure one of you would like to win at some point ;)

As mentioned, I'll try once more and if we're still at square one we will figure a different way of settling this.

Oh man. You can't taunt me with a category that I can't help but resist.

xofelf,

In Greek Mythology, Thiea is a Titaness who gave birth to three gods and goddess, Helios, Selene, and Eos, of the sun, moon, and dawn respectively. The father of these three gods is which titan?

Oh, that was a center square. My apologies for being off my game as of late.

In order to obtain that center square, you'll have to answer another question, so here goes.

doctorwho,

Flowering plants are the most diverse form of land plants, and they take their scientific name from the Greek for vessel and seed to signify their seeds are encased in ovaries. What is this name?
