I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

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

Lost...

The monster may be the peaceful thing, but the theme of the comic may relate to what is happening to the survivors in terms of what is weird or scary is not malevolent. However, the French woman's pleas for help are still in the back of my mind.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Lost

I think what happened to the pilot also points to the monster being evil, unless you assume his death was some kind of wish fulfillment, along the lines of Jack, Charlie or Kate thinking "I wish he hadn't be alive to tell us we were so off course."

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

When le nubian says this:

However, the French woman's pleas for help are still in the back of my mind.

I can't help but think that the people still haven't a power source for a transmittion that has been playing for 16 years. That either got to be one big battery or the previous inhabitants mangaed to set up some kind of water operated generator OR the power is coming from the island/monster itself .

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

What if it is solar?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Am I right in remembering that the whitefont policy for this thread was tbd? Because I'd really strongly prefer no whitefont for spoilers -- I realize that this may just be my issue, but my very strong tendency is to skip over whitefonted anything when I'm reading. It looks just like Natter in here, and one of the reasons I got into spoilers in the first place was to have a place where I didn't have to fret about what I might let slip outside the whitefont. Ptui.

"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

Count me amongst those that would rather have the spoiler thread be all out in the open, with no whitefont at all.

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

The thread is interesting for me, but not if it's going to be all out in the open. I only like being spoiled for some shows.

All is well that ends in pizza.

The problem is, that a general spoiler thread must searve severla masters. If we want to be unspoiled for some shows and unspoiled for others, than basically you can't come in at all.

For instance, If I wanted to read Lost spoilers, but not Alias spoilers, I"m SOL if we eliminate whitefont in this thread.

This would not be an issue in a single topic thread, but here? A bit more complicated.

ETA: Xpost with ita... heh

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

There's white font elsewhere. A major feature of previous spoiler boards was No Freakin' Whitefont. I'd rather this was Non-Sluts Beware forewarned zone, rather than a pick and choose whitefont-everywhere zone.
