Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I'm going to lobby for: Brian Bloom in the role! :-)

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Oooh - but I liked the summary of his character! Sounding like they might be going the Gaiman route, which would be awesome.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

Dude, they are going

to have us fall in love with the devil? (vunerable, soft-spoken)

Wonder if he and Misha will get along. Oh the slash possibilities that are ahead.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Okay. I may be revising those first impressions.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Yes! (Unsurprisingly, my first thought was pretty much a slashgasm.)

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

I think Kripke's approach to angels as a whole is heavily influenced by The Prophecy. Too bad Viggo is out of the CW's salary range.

I think I'd go another route, and hire some beatific adolescent who looks like he stepped out of a Botticelli painting. In fact, it occurs to me that recasting Colin Ford for that role would be uniquely appropriate given the part Sam played in the last episode. (And the kid is one of the few child actors that age with the chops to pull it off.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I want Patrick Fabian in the role. Just because I love it when he's bad, and he's pretty. But he's way predictable.

I do hear that Ray Wise is available...

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

too old for the casting requirement.

Compassionately intolerant

At ita's suggestion, I said outloud, "GOD, I love that guy." And then followed with, 'no pun intended.'
