We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

I imagine it's like my unholy love for Scorpy

It's the twisted anti-hero thing, though CSM has more of the fallen hero angst than Scorpy does.

You know what it is with Scorpy -- it's the fact that he and John are so closely linked, their obsession with the wormholes. Just one wrong turn into an unrealized reality, and each of them could be the other. It's a Javert/Jean Valjean thing.

I mean, OK. There's the leather, the intelligence and that killer voice. But did ya see that episode where Scorpy had sex with the Eyeball Lady? Duuude.

Gack. No, my appreciation of Scorpy is not not NOT sexual. My Farscape oost is reserved for Chiana and John.

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

Have you read Shrift's Expectations?

Thrive to spite them

Okay, I'm reading the Krychek Water Baby story...and my god....this is...almost so bad it's funny but not quite. It's---this should be a parody, or the writer's idea of a joke, but it's written with such sincerity.

Fayjay, I can't find your email. But I'm an old XF hand, and big with the canon-obeisance. Also with the angsty hatesex appreciation. Send it my way, if you like. vehemently@yahoo.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Oh, ya'll were talking Farscape. I was like, Scorpy? Whassa?

Anyone happen to know when the reruns come on? Berea has the SciFi channel.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

I'm working on that Harvey-in-Scorpy's-head fic right now, so that should relieve the Harvey missage if it doesn't suck.

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

I don't think Farscape comes back until the new episodes run in January. Could be wrong, though.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Springer is a real baby whale, an orphan discovered in Puget Sound. She was ill and becoming accustomed to humans.

Ohmigod. Someone wrote Springerfic? Oh dear Lord. That's just bizarre.

(There was awhile there this summer where you couldn't turn on the local news or NPR station without another Springer the Baby Orphaned Orca story.)
