I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter.
I'm picturing the head ducking out to the living room watching football and one hand in the kitchen getting snacks.
(raising hand) Major ew factor.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If he's using one hand to get snacks, you need to move on to another dismembered man. That's just rude.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
It's the lack of hand, and not the lack of the head, with its looking and thinking and tongue that you think is rude?
Huh.

You don't need a tongue, much less a mouth to watch TV.
Eyes would be nice, but if he needs to navigate by feel, so be it. Just as long as all hands are on deck, or at least near it, at attention.

Huh. Just read a really fun Buffy/Stargate crossover. Lots of entertaining dialog, a fair number of explosions, and the writer did a halfway decent job (as decent as one can, anyway) handling the wackiness of a world in which both goa'uld and vampires exist. Plus, the characters pretty much worked, although Daniel didn't really have much to do besides marvel at Giles' library.
But it's fun seeing Xander and O'Neill snark at each other.
Find it here. Yay for Crack_Van!

Gosh, I'll have to read that. Though all I know of Stargate is what I catch as Hubby's watching it. And from the first movie.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi
I don't think that bodhisattvas become extinguished and then return, I think that they get to the point where they will be at Nirvana but are not extinguished yet and say, "wait, there is still more suffering in this world, I cannot leave yet" or something and don't do it.
That is my understanding as a sometime student but not adherent of Buddhism.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
The Scarab! I love that story. I think I'd recc'd it on BSO, too, several months ago. My favorite bit in the story was Buffy and Teal'c bonding as warriors, even though Buffy predictably had trouble pronouncing Teal'c's name.
Whoever did the SG rec this month on Crack Van did a great job, and not just because she recc'd Katie's "In the Wrong Story", which I adore.

Casapazzo, I think, who's one of the mods at CV. And yeah, there's some great stuff there. I read Katie's story for the nth time. Unfortunately, I keep thinking there's gonna be sex in it, because of the snippets she's posted to her LJ since then.
t blinks at Katie innocently Want my apocathreesome, already!
Speaking of which, I was toying with writing some apocasex for the This isn't Wartime series, but I don't think I can make it happen. Jack's just... resistant. He's too much in command at the moment to let it happen. Bastard.
