In my head it's kind of like a-mi-'cht, really fast, t almost silent.
T.L. MzLizard speaks for me.
[random] I have this sudden urge to read fic called
Rouge Demon Hunter,
although whether this would be about Wesley as a demon hunter who wears rouge or as a hunter of cosmetic demons I haven't quite decided. I'm easy. Anyone want to write some for me? [/random]
also? Just seen the last episode of
The X Files,
or at least most of it - missed the first half hour or so. It was, imho, in many respects a vertitable vortex of suckitude, and once again I'm
very
glad that this show was not the focus of my heartfelt fannish adoration whilst it was still running, because yes, the gradual disillusionment and sense of betrayal as one realised that CC & co
were
winging it madly would have been heartbreaking. But I am still very fond of the characters (excepting Monica, whom I've only seen twice). I do love Doggett to pieces (although I'm almost certainly mis-spelling his name) but I wish they hadn't recycled the Mulder lost child thing for him. It's cheap, and he's better than that, damn it.
But look, I have to ask - did Mulder and Scully get textually romantic at any point? Because this final ep seemed to read like they were textually involved, and I've only watched it patchily. Um. (And apparently I missed a bit of Krycek in it, although I was pleased that I saw the Gunmen.)
So you're saying I won't start writing just because I've started plotting? Okay, that's probably true.
Uh-huh. Good luck with that.
Cross-over with Moulin Rouge?
Burrell, I escaped writing the first fic I plotted (hey, Dana!), but not the next four.
Just so's you know.
omg! It's a wholly insane idea for a crossover, but it's such a
yummy
mental place that I might stay there. Hmm.
(I adored
Moulin Rouge
utterly and totally, with every iota of my sappy soul. Truth, beauty and love, in all their undignified, ridiculous, kitsch, embarrassing glory... don't get me started.)
the gradual disillusionment and sense of betrayal as one realised that CC & co were winging it madly would have been heartbreaking.
Yes, yes it was.
Signed,
bitter ex-fan who wouldn't piss on CC if he were on fire now
FayJay, we never conclusively saw them involved.
We were just told it was his baby.
There were some confusing points (well, why is she in his bathroom, then?) but really, CC was being a prick, and not at all the fun kind.
Many people lead rich, fulfilling lives without writing fan fic.
These words make no sense.
Edit: ita, IIRC, it was mentioned (that beds were involved) last season.
Fay, yes, they got textual, but it wasn't shown, just told. Because CC is the antichrist, and has his own layer of hell where he and GL can sit in black oil and carbonite until I forgive them, which ain't going to happen.

You speak so eloquently about the experience.
Sigh. See, I figured out how it would happen, or how it could happen, rather. Oh damn!
I didn't even bother watching the last season of X-Files. It would have felt like I was hanging out with a really infuriating ex.
