"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

But I can't get past the fact that Duncan is the guy who, when he slept with her all roofied up, STILL BELIEVED SHE WAS HIS SISTER. Just....not enough ick in the world. I don't think I could get past that to get back together with someone.

Lone Star comment & spoiler:

You know, after Lone Star, I think I've just about got over the ick factor of sibling luv. I found that movie really disturbing and I didn't get over it for awhile. After I did get over it, I'm not nearly as creeped out. It's like a mortician seeing their 5th dead body.

OMG. I can't believe that's Steve Guttenberg.

What is even happening?

Benjamin inadvertantly deleted the S2 premiere. The one I didn't get to record until last night. The one I hadn't yet even had a chance to mark "keep until I delete", never mind watch or transfer to tape.

You rock, tiggy. Thank you. I'll put up a request in When Come Back.

But I think I'll wait 'til tomorrow. I was ridiculously sad that the episode was deleted. I made Ben feel pretty guilty, too (not intentionally--that was just the fallout).

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Just saw the premiere.

Veronica really needs to meet some new boys. Especially if she's going to be unable to stay single for very long. Because Watchword-boyfriend Duncan...I like to think she could do better.

As far as the mystery? Ok. Sure. Not sure I like that Lilly saved Veronica, but, whatever. I'm hoping that Veronica and Weevil will make up properly (Which, I suppose, basically means that she clears him for the bus-breaking), and the watchword changes. I don't like her with the 09ers

If I only had a brain...

I think all the '09er boys are poison.

His treatment of Veronica was really awkward, and very avoidy, and he should have just come clean about everything from the beginning, perhaps, but that wouldn't have been nice either - he knew Veronica loved Keith, and revealing that Keith might not be her Daddy would have been painful. So, that's a hard decision, and choosing as he did didn't make him un-nice.

I actually find Duncan pretty interesting, given his fucked-up family and the fact that he slept with a girl he thought was his sister, but I do think that although Duncan is "nice," he's a coward. Breaking up with Veronica because he found out she was his sister is fine. Even not telling her the truth because he doesn't want to hurt her is fine. But just ignoring her? And basically getting his sister to do the dirty work? Completely cowardly. Also, he ran as soon as things got tough at the end of the year. If he really had doubts about him being Lilly's killer, he should have confronted his parents right then - not fly off to Cuba.

I like Duncan, though. He needs to grow up and become a man, but Veronica always seems much happier around him than she does with Logan.

Strawberry disappointment.

Just re-watched the season premier. When Duncan and VM are getting on the bus, Logan is swaggering (actually he was standing still. Faith and him are the only two people I know who can swagger while standing still), aaaaanyway, he said to VM "I'll miss you." I thought that odd at the time, but on rewatch it obviously is meant to be hinty that he knew something was going to happen.

My money, however, is on it being a red herring.
