I got the impression from the panelists -- from the short time we were there -- that Stargate was their first slash fandom. And while that's all well and good for a Stargate slash panel, it's not remotely representative.

I don't like crashing panels, so we ran screaming rather than ask the room if they were tired of listening to the panelists' threesome fantasies and would they like to speak with people who actually possess tact and have some small amout of fannish cred.

Please tell me none of the on-camera guests actually showed up to hear their characters discussed? (OK, I suspect Lani Tupu has heard far more scarring things from Kemper and O'Bannon while actually working on the show, but as for the rest...)

No. Thank god. Though their karmic reward (such as it was) was to be presented with My Little Ponies decorated as Stargate characters at the next panel.

I have a few problems with the Stargate track moderator.

I'm not entirely sure, were I an actor, that I wouldn't prefer being at the slash panel.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

I just need to share with y'all that my former roomate texted me from DragonCon yesterday, just to let me know she'd just seen Lani Tupu browsing porn in the dealer's room.

Between that and the slash panel, I can't decide if I desperately need to attend DragonCon next year or run screaming in the opposite direction.

HA. The Farscape actors are more or less awesome.

Claudia Black is seven or eight months pregnant, by the way.

I see my earlier confidence in his un-mortifyability was warranted.

This is now my official favorite DragonCon story.

It's kind of impossible not to browse for porn in the dealer's room. It's mixed right in there with the comics and DVDs and action figures and corsets and swords. Ball gags, Batman, and belly scarves, oh my!
