Deb, Smallville has one.
BWAH! What are the odds? Is he a hottie?

They really are brilliant.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Smallville has one.
Those slackers! They skipped a principal. You're supposed to have the nice-but-ineffective principal who gets killed by a possessed student on a rampage, then the evil principal, and only then do you get the morally ambiguous principal.
You can't skip the evil principal. It's just wrong. Amateurs.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think the current SV principal is effectively evil. Not big-scale evil, but he's pissy to Lex, and what more do we need to judge him?

My fandom eats you starting with your bottom.
I am ridiculously attatched to the phrase 'it eats you starting with your bottom' to start with, but that's just... it's making me hysterical.

I love the "my fandom kills lesbians" one. TARA!!!
Aside from being pissy to Lex for making Clark late for school, and being mean to Clark for being late to school because he was blowing Lex in his car, I'm not sure the Smallville principal is morally ambiguous at all.
And he's not at all McHot.

Well, if he's not McHot, then Buffy wins. What's the point of being morally ambiguous, if you aren't lickable, too?

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
My Fandom Kills Lesbians is definitely my favorite. Hee!
Thanks for the rec, Vonnie. Felt a little... stilted? Overly talky?... for the first couple of chapters, then solidified. I like his Teal'c. In return: Sleepers, SG S6 but you really don't have to worry about spoilers so long as you know the outline of what happens in Abyss.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Oooh. Thanks, Katie. That's a long one. ::bookmarks the link:: Wonder whether I could hold off until I get the DVDs.....

Has everyone read Somewhere I've Never Traveled by Jenn? Smallville. So good. Really damn long.

Long fics. I love long, good fics. But I don't need another fandom, I don't don't don't.
We've been listening to all the Harry Potter books, and I keep hearing Draco being vicious and thinking "But he's not like that! He becomes a good guy and falls in love with Neville (or whomever you like in the fic pairing stakes)!"
I find myself afraid of what Rowling's going to do.
