It would! I will stand with you in your fussy petty corner.
Inara: So, explain to me again why Zoe wasn't in the dress? Mal: Tactics, woman. Needed her in the back. 'Sides, those soft cotton dresses feel kinda nice. It's the whole... air-flow.

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

So I didn't stop entirely, but still.
I think I've been reading too much of Domenika Marzione's stuff--she knows from military. It spoils me for the fluffier/more romantic writers.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I am getting petty. I stopped reading a story because the writer gave Sheppard an email address that ended in .gov, not .mil.
... but really? It would be .mil.Of course it would be... There's room for me in the pedantic corner, yes?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I found a nicely creepy Doctor Who/Life on Mars crossover here.

You're a Buffista, Cass--there's always room in the pedantic corner. *g*

Thrive to spite them
I seem to have gone from thinking about Eureka and the timeline issues to starting to write a story about Henry and the month that we didn't see and more insight into what his plans are/what he experienced.
So far it's all just ideas and I need to watch the first season (which I'm buying today) but I'm starting to get down my ideas and the points I want to hit on the story.
Would anyone be willing to act as my sounding board while I'm trying to work out how the time lines would work and plausible simliarites/differences between them?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Allie, I can beta on characterization/tone, but I haven't seen season one so I'd be of little help with the logistics of the the plot.

Thanks! Right now I've got to get my handwritten notes typed up, I don't have much actually writing done (hard to do when I'm supposed to be writing) but I can email you the outline of what I have.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I posted this a while back in my LJ, but got no help. Looking for a fic, set early in Faith, after the "I'm gonna die, and you can't stop it." "Watch me." scene, and before Dean shows up at Sam's motel room. It's of the day and a half Dean was in the hospital before he checked out AMA and bolted. I don't recall either title or author, but I think it's not more than two or three months old, definitely posted before the summer_gen flurry. Any help? Anybody?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
LJ is doing the most impressive job of digging themselves into a hole that I've seen since...the last time they dug themselves into a hole.
Edit: I haven't read the whole thread, but someone has brought up the possibility that some asshole might comment to the whole thing with HP7 spoilers. Tread carefully.
