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

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
ita, you'll be pleased to know that yours is the essay that makes everyone say, "oh wow" when I describe the book.

Dude, it makes me go "oh, wow" myself. Because I still can't believe it.

I just read the guardian article. He can't have watched a single episode. Becky "striding with perfect posture"? When?

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore
i'll agree with liking Connor when he made his return in season five. his character did a complete 180 though.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
If baby connor had just disappeared into Quortoth, I would have been okay with it all. I hated VK Connor so much.
I still kind of wish that they'd done something along of the fic I wrote after Holtz and baby disappeared.
I swore that the entire Connor arc was Minear's way of scaring us all into double bagging.
And, snerk!

Season 4 after "Orpheus" I watched from the hall. Except "Home."

If I only had a brain...
The "Whatever you do, DON'T push this button to play the video" text reminds me of Victorian Latin texts. They didn't want the naughty bits of Catullus to offend schoolboys...
so they put them all in the back of the book in one section.

That's my favorite part. "Whatever you do, DONT LOOK BEHIND THE CURTAIN!"
