So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

It's not Buffyverse. It's Sorority Boys.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

It's Sorority Boys.

I really should have guessed.

Hey, guys, by the way? I'm looking for standard-disclaimer-type "all Harry Potter stuff belongs to Rowling and these other people, and not me" lines for both Harry Potter and Star Wars. Who *does* own these things; and if you've seen standard-disclaimer formats/lines on other fan sites for these fandoms, could you pass me the link?

... I hope that paragraph made sense. I'm having trouble with complete sentences this morning.

Afternoon.

Whatever.

I just got UP!

Argh. Author of the article persists in getting things wrong -- although I think I'll have to give him a pass, considering members of fandom sometimes get the same things wrong.

At least the tone of the article wasn't condescending.

Of course, when you're interviewing Tham, it might be a bit hard to condescend to her without getting spanked.

Hmm.

I haven't read much HP, but I imagine that disclaiming to J.K. Rowling is enough- she still owns the rights, even if they've made a film. For Star wars, all disclaimers need to mention George Lucas, at least.

Intresting article- I was a bit disconcerted by 'fanfiction.net have banned slash' until I realised he meant NC-17, not m/m.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Although, realistically speaking, isn't a broad disclaimer better -- well, as far as the legality of a disclaimer is worth anything -- rather than a narrow one?

"No hedgehogs were harmed in the making of this production" means that they might have been slaughtering badgers wholesale, but "no animals..." is nice and complete.

Then again, my disclaimers tend to run to "If I owned the intellectual property herein, I would have millions of dollars and not be uploading from a 56K connection."

All about the contrary-to-fact, yo.

Broad is probably better, yes- but for Tolkien, you tend to disclaim to him, and not worry about, say, Peter Jackson. That's what I based it on.
