I, for one, wasn't looking forward to starting my day with a slaughter. Which, really, just goes to show how much I've grown

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Ah. I see others have read the same SG1 mpreg fic I read the other day. One of the (many) things that bugged me about that fic was that the basic premise behind the fic (member of SG1 gets a sudden gender change due to [insert technobabble here]) could be hella interesting if the author took the time to think about the different ramifications of dealing with an unwanted gender change, or at least those ramifications that go beyond "insert tab A into slot B."

I didn't read all of the genderswitch mpreg...I got as far as the discovery of the pregnancy and stopped reading, but that might have been because it was really late.

I haven't been reading a lot of fanfic lately although I've gotten on a Sports Night kick. I have disc 1 at home from Netflix but haven't watched it yet.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Askye--Have you seen SN before?

I think I've seen at least two episodes when Comedy Central was rerunning it. I know who the characters are and some of the relationships. I've had SN on my Netflix queue forever, it's just finally gotten to the top.

There's a sequel to the immensely fun "Xander Has Kittens" that takes place during the Letterman Jacket fiasco. Xander interrupts Willow's "make him a girl" spell and it hits him instead. Xander and Spike are together, and Spike is finding the idea very intriguing, but Xander is having all sorts of problems with the weird hormones messing with his brain plus the suspicion that Spike might actually like him better this way. I'm probably describing it terribly, but I'm appreciating the attempt to address the repercussions of someone dealing with the totally different body chemistry and all.

Given the current state of television, I rather envy you seeing it for the first time.

I'm looking forward to it, the only thing I remember from when I watched it was there was they had 2 minutes to fill and were trying to figure out how to fill it. I think there was some kind of weird sport that had only taken a less than a minute but either Danny or Casey came in and spun it so that it filled the two minutes.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

that the basic premise behind the fic (member of SG1 gets a sudden gender change due to [insert technobabble here]) could be hella interesting if the author took the time to think about the different ramifications of dealing with an unwanted gender change, or at least those ramifications that go beyond "insert tab A into slot B."

Go read shalott's Master and Commander genderfuck.

Somebody link me to the godawful Stargate mpreg already.... I think I have to gaze in disbelieving wonder on it for myself.

Took me forever to track down, because I kept not recognizing the name. Here it is. (And, yes, it really could have used a good beta. But I think it's tongue-in-cheek, myself.)
