Why, look at this entertaining story! About the captain of the Serendipity, who mentions his pal Booker! I wonder if, given the chance, the author would have called him Mel.
... at least there's no mention of a Rhielly or a watcher named Chiles.
Zoe: Is there any way I'm gonna get out of this with honor and dignity? Wash: You're pretty much down to ritual suicide, lambie-toes.

Thrive to spite them
Christ it's that short and some one can't figure out the basics of the show?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
How can you expect him/her/it to know the names of the characters or ship when he/she/it can't even come up with Joss's name?
summary: based upon something I once read that the creator of Firefly said.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
And notice -- s/he doesn't say she read Joss saying it. S/he read that Joss said it. Just a little detached from the show ... I'm quite impressed with it on that front.
Still think it reeks, though.

Meep! Snippet, spoilery for last night's Angel

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
Interesting "definition of fanfic" stuff along with a reaction to the Iliad movie that made me giggle. Nov. 14th entry (it looks like the permalinks are only per-date.)

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Damn them - how can they tell you who's scheduled for Achilles and not mention Patroclus? Wow. Man, I do hope this movie happens. BigGayLove-alicious. You could have some very nice Paris/Menalaus UST too. Oh, man. The number of slashable relationships/canonically gay relationships - oh, man. Wow. Sign me up now.
(Also? Yay Team Bloodshed! Bloom's so GOOD at getting all slaughtery. Fun fun fun!)
...I wonder if they'll include the Troilus/Creseyde thing?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I thought I was immune to being annoyed by the portmanteau words for pairings (Spuffy, Ganya, Spillow). But I just saw S/X referred to as "SPANDER"!
