Oh ita! That sounds amazing! Do you have a link?!
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.
River ,'Objects In Space'
Buffy and Angel 1: BUFFYNANGLE4EVA!!!!!1!
Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's sadly obsessive, is what it is, but if I can't share it here, where can I?
Yeah, I'm gonna wear it to work, though, since I'm funding it with project bonus money, not just normal salary.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

There's too much good stuff out there, that's the problem.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I was watching this incredibly marginal movie on Lifetime with one of the actresses from "That 70s show." She was a sculptor and when they showed her living room, it had these beautiful mounted bookcases. One side of the bookcases wasn't mounted properly (it was covering part of a window) and I could not look at anything else in the scene while it was in the living room.
I kept wondering: why didn't they mount those properly? those are nice bookcases.

However, I am now curious about anybody else's combo pack of Watched/Read.
Battlestar Galactica S1 and Casanova.
With Faction Paradox as an alternate in case of emergency.
There's lots of other stuff I love, but those 3 loved me back.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Strega! I just finished reading This Town Will Never Let Us Go. That was a fantastic read. I felt the end let it down a little, and possibly showed up the limits of its style of continental philosophising, but nonetheless I loved its rather deft readiness to weave those thoghts into it. Reminded me of some Kundera.

Because books.
My sweet spot would probably be Supernatural/the Harry Potter books.

billytea - Oh hooray! I think I love that one the most. (Although I still have a couple in my in-progress pile, to be fair.) And the narrative style is a big part of that. I can't find it at the moment but there was a nice interview with Miles talking about his desire to be more experimental.
The ending did seem unsatisfying on first read. Although I had almost no context going in... so it became much more sad after I'd read The Book of the War.
