So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I (and Frank) found something that made Plei say ewwwww. I feel oddly proud.

There are things that squick me! Angel/Cordelia, for example.

I am not unsquickable.

Take your fingers off it, don't you dare touch it, you know it don't belong to you, to you...

Yes! Lone Gunmen versus Geek Trio would be sweet! Ahem...without the nudity. But I'd rather have nudity than Jimmy Bond from TLG's spin-off.

How about Krycek (w/ Marita in his corner) vs. Lindsey (w/ Eve in his corner) in a One-Armed Hoyay duel?

Goddamn, you people got me going.

Oh I know (and sorry if I caused offense). It's just interesting to see what sets off your squick meter.

Snerk.

The weirdest things set it off...

Though there have been occasions where a former squick has gone away for some reason. That always makes me sad.

Tis better to have squicked and lost, than never to have squicked at all. Or something like that.

Scully/Giles is pretty easy to imagine for me. Buffy/Mulder ... I can see him lusting after her, but not much beyond that. (The fact he's biologically old enough to be her father does not help. Yeah, i know Angel is, like, five times Mulder's age, but ... is different.)

Neither squicks me as much as Buffy/Giles.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Buffy/Giles is a HUGE squick for me. Way way way more than Batman/Robin (whichever Robin you choose).

I like some Buffy/Giles

But I understand the squick. I keep my darker pleasures to myself.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Well, when you get right down to it I'd say it's a lot healthier to have an inappropriate relationship with an older mentor figure than with a clammy reanimated corpse that's going to turn evil and try to kill you. Yet, Buffy/Giles still seems ickier than the canon romance.

Let's face it, Buffy/Angel is not so squicky because he LOOKS like a reasonable age for Buffy (or did at the time). Appearance counts for a lot, unfortunately for some of us.
