I watch Big Bang, too, and I don't think it looks anything like Sheldon, honestly. It really does look exactly like the Teen Wolf character.

Because books.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm really trying to see the Sheldon in that, but maybe I'm not familiar enough with him. I'd never not know that was Stiles. Even without the other characters.

Well, Parsons does have ultra-short hair and tends to wear the same sorts of shirts as O'Brien when in character. I don't think of them as having similar facial features though.

I see a little bit in the facial expression, but not in the actual features.

I guess, if your picture had a lot of shirt in it, maybe. As far as Google told me, Sheldon has a receding hairline with a mini-fringe, but hey. My eyes aren't the sharpest these days.

New Star Wars novel by Martha Wells looks entirely awesomely badass. I approve.

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'd never not know that was Stiles.
No, it was very clearly Stiles. And really good overall. But so super startlingly Stiles that I had to wander off and figure out if Dylan O'Brian always looked like that (not so much) or if it just grabbed the character for me.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
In my insomniac need to find something to entertain me, I begain looking through my bookmarks. The Faro Fixer seems to have deleted everything! I know she had issues (social anxiety, agoraphobia, I'm not sure what) but I am devestated that she withdrew this far. I think she's got one Star Trek fic left on AO3, but the few SPN fics she'd imported there are completely gone. I think I need to make a habit of somehow downloading my fave fics, and even my not so faves, just in case.

I've been downloading fics to my computers for years. I've been burned by missing stories too many times.
ION, I've seen a tag called "Identity porn" in lots of Avengers fics. What does that mean?

Secret identity vs. superhero identity (Peter Parker/Spider Man) and how maintaining those two can cause hilarious hijinks and love triangles, etc.
