Screw it. Y'all win.
That's so funny!
Giles! I accidentally killed Spike. That's okay, right?

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

Groundhog Day scenario. Unrealized realities. Magical and alien resurrection. Opportunities to kill off characters you dislike.

Do people have to actually *survive* the Worst-Case Scenario?
I don't think they even have to be the primary participants/victims of it. The email I got from slodwick just said, " The scenario you're assigned should play at least some role in the story you write, either directly or indirectly. Be as creative as you can!" Dr. House and Dr. Wilson could treat the guy who didn't run from the killer bees, Spike could see someone in the car teetering on the edge of a cliff and give it a little push, Krycek could try to mug someone who decided his wallet was worth dying for . . .

Poor CJ: fandom stomped her but good. But really, she deserved it.

If I only had a brain...
Do not piss into the Sea of Stories. Thank you.

You know, this could be satisfying but short.
Grayza is attacked by a raging hippopotamus. She dies.
Kennedy is caught up in a riot. She dies.
Aquaman is caught in a tsunami. He dies.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Ha! I am totally on board for this.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Oh, come on. You totally have to reply. How often do you really get the chance to say, "Thanks for playing, but..."
Yes. This.

cousinjean has now LEFT LIVEJOURNAL OMG YOU EVIL CAPITALISTS.
Or something along those lines. Also, people supported her in e-mail, and she totally has mysterious disabilities we know nothing about, and don't be afraid to follow your dreams, people, peace out!

Some day I want to form a band called The Lurkers Support Me in Email.
I was vaguely appalled that someone reported her to LJ for TOS violations. Because she wasn't really doing anything illegal on LJ.
People totally should follow their dreams. I just don't see why they should ask the rest of us to pay for them to do so. That's what the NEA is for. *g*
