If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Wow, that's a nice thing to say. Jeez.

Chrismq, "Kansas" the Farscape story is by M. If you go here, you should find it. And as good as Kernezelda is, she'd be honored and flabbergasted to be mistaken for M. As would I, really.

Um. Speaking of that story of mine, I appear to have committed sequel, of sorts: [link]

Huh.

"...and then Legolas and the Hulk destroy the entire Greek army." - Penny Arcade

Suela, first of all Brenda's post made me realize I might have sounded disparaging - "Oh, I thought it was THIS GREAT STORY by this OTHER PERSON" - and that's not what I meant at all. Your fic is always fantastic, and I'm really sorry if it sounded like I thought otherwise.

(And if I needed reminding, I just followed that link and saw the John-and-Little-D story. Augh(In the good way).)

That having been said - thank you! I remembered someone had written "Seven Ways SG-1 destroyed the world, with bonus slash and Buffy crossover" but I hadn't realized that was M! Oooh, and there's a Year That Never Was story with Sally Sparrow!

--and "Kansas" itself, of course. It feels different now, like another version slipped in from an unrealized reality. But the flavor is still sweet and painful, and the voices so clear I can hear Ben Browder and Wayne Pygram saying the lines. Sigh.

Fay - Well, see Suela's comment above. The only thing I wonder is - do you know Farscape at all? It's a future-fic, so all you really need is the setup for the later seasons. And the sheer story-ness of it all would carry through.

I think this was a pretty good day.

Oh, no worries. And I'm happy to share M.'s work: she's awesome and I think everyone should read her stuff.

Always Anti-fascist!

I seriously hated Congresswoman Andie for saying that, especially *after* he gives her twins. Thinking there's a future after you knock someone up isn't exactly a mixed signal, right? (/overidentifying) Because I have no fear of ever hearing that. But...my friend the slightly depressive political junkie? She gets concerned. Especially since she doesn't exactly have looks she can coast on,though I think she has a certain exotic appeal.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Thanks for all the recs!! I am thrilled, Joe is not so much.

Really? Doesn't share your obsession, does he? I'm not surprised I like CJ/ Toby. They are like Munchenkay, sort of.

Sadly, no.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Laga, I'm now convinced I'm being told to finish my Anya of the latest Buffy issue and give Daniel Craig the line from your dream. Do you mind? I mean, I don't want to defy the mysterious oracular powers of the world, but I want to defy the Buffistas even less.

Sorry I didn't see this sooner. I don't mind at all, in fact I'd say I'm honored except I often feel like the lines the characters in my dreams say don't belong to me.

a Year That Never Was story with Sally Sparrow!

Sally Sparrow!? Like from "Blink"?! Ooh can I have a link, please?
