Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

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

Yep, end of day.

People know my weird pairing quirks too well, you see.

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

Is that the B/W fic list?

Nope. It was just my time call on when someone I knew would have pointed out the story and mentioned my name.

Although, hmmm...

I *am* looking for a name for the B/W unreleased section of my site.

Oh! Duh. Misread it as "End of Days". More apocalyptically-foreboding 'n' scary and shit.

t takes a second.

Hah. I know the adverbial form of "apocalypse". Beat that, Riley.

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

Oh, this made me laugh:

She rose up, holding herself up by the elbows. Her eyes were the color of television tuned to a dead channel. They had nearly as much feeling, too.

ME: Hey, she stole that from Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep! Except it doesn't work anymore, because as you've seen people say more than once that color's changed, because televisions tuned to dead channels nowadays are blue...

...oh. Right.

Though now I'm trying to remember if Buffy's eyes are blue, and I'm not sure.

I'm beginning to understand this now. It's all about the journey, isn't it?

I think Buffy's eyes are hazel.

Harumph. And it was such a lovely joke/reference, too! Oh well.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Mmmmm.... Calico wrote a lovely pre-chip Spike/Xander ficlet. Barely PG, but mmmm. I t heart Calico. (Even though she also single-handedly kicked me out of my RPF squick and into a world of guilty pleasure.)

And I loved re-reading Absent Mind too. Clark and Lex. Blessity bless bless bless.

...oh, ye Gods. Now she's popped my Blake's 7 cherry with Souls of Discretion .

t speechless

t random

...caught another random episode of Blake's 7 again tonight, and damn, I really, REALLY like this show, shoestring budget and all. The HoYay is practically Smallvillian and there are these wonderfully competent and sensible womenfolk in the crew (Jenna & Cally, as it was earlyish season tonight, whilst there was still a Blake on board) who seem to have some days when they dress kinda sexy and other days when they dress kinda functional, but who definitely don't run around being overtly girly or cypherish. And Servalan, who is pure fabulous camp fabulousness on a fabulous stick. Draped in fox fur and dripping with diamonds. My God. And men in shiny black PVC boots. So many things to make a girl go gah. So much moral ambiguity going on too. Love it.

Go Team Infant FayJay with the Blake's 7 fandom. Such good taste I had as a wean, back in the day. I remember very little about the show, but I was terribly distressed when they cancelled it. (And I think Avon & indeed Servalan & the rest probably had a fairly major impact on my infant psyche.)
