My favorite part was when she said, "The fourth victim, Allyson Beatrice."
Wesley: We're going to bring Angelus in alive. Connor: No we're not. Gunn: I thought you said capturing him wasn't an option. Wesley: Changed my mind. Connor: Change it back.

The Minearverse 3: The Network Is a Harsh Mistress
[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm unsure how physically she could continue to hold the knife even in that state
That's my issue. I don't have a problem with the psychology of it, but that kind of precision's gonna be difficult for anyone not a surgeon even with all nerve endings intact. Plus, slippery.

Hey, that was one of my favorite parts too.

You do that stuff, they call you "The Oakland Riders" and put you on trial for human rights/criminal procedure violations.
What makes you think it'll be dropped?
I keep seeing stuff like that, and I wonder why folks think their questions won't be addressed.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
makes Total sense Consuela. Exactly what I couldn't put into coherent words last night when cutiehead Mal was maligned. issues.
Allyson, ok if I just call you #4 now?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Okay, it's Web, short for Webster, right? Not Webb? Cause seeing it both ways is already starting to bug. (cf. Lily, Leanne, Lynne)

IJS, I liked it but at the same time, it bothered me about the character.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Web made me laugh, but he didn't make me like him. Which is what happened when Mal shot that guy in The Train Job.
Yup. Web is supposed to represent the law. Instead, he murdered a suspect. There's no excuse for that. If he resists, then you can shoot him. Rebecca ought to turn him in to Internal Affairs, or whatever the FBI equivalent is.

I loved it. Totally hooked.
What I found really interesting about the final scene, after the "Damn I did that backward" bit (Webb is evil, in a way that should make for interesting watching), was the glimpse into the relationship between Web and uhhhhhh conscience guy (Paul?). Webb tells him 'take care of it' and Conscience guy says something like "I'm on it" - and the look on his face was...interesting.
It's just - he's conscience guy, but he's also "clean-up" guy. I'm thinking that'll be an interesting tension as well.
eta: I need to find more words for 'interesting'.

So far, the fact that I never liked Firefly is serving me well, it seems. I'm not seeing any of Mal in Web or Jayne in Danny, and that's just the way I like it.
