Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

I'm looking forward to the series. I read the books but they were always a skim and forget series for me - because I never believed Harry. I think I'll have a much easier time believing a Harry played by Paul Blackthorne than the voice in which the series was written.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Huh. Harry pretty much had me from the end of chapter 1 with his "Paranoid? Maybe. But just because you're paranoid doesn't mean there isn't an invisible demon about to eat your face."

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

Barrowman and his architect didn't look like brothers to me. They just looked gorgeous and happy. Rock on, OK magazine. You get a redeeming point.

Supernatural was really enjoyable this week. but the drunk!Sam thing felt very out of place--I too thought he was possessed for awhile there. But his comments to Dean whilst (badly portraying) drunk were very, very funny. And Dean's face... Sam might be a lightweight, but at least he remembers things in the morning. For pure PRETTY, that motion where Sam turns over in the bed and there's just that strip of skin and his long, lean back....gah. Had to watch that a couple times.

The dolls? Super creepy. And mostly I was appalled at the end, where Rose had agreed to stay with her sister, but only because she had no choice.. it was just that little bit of the grey area, which I like, especially when it does set me back a little. Anyway, good show.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

But just because you're paranoid doesn't mean there isn't an invisible demon about to eat your face.

Well, I won't be sleeping for a while.

SA, I'm coming around to the theory that Sam was less drunk than he was claiming/pretending to be. As far as possible fanwanks go, it's one that a: explains away the acting; b: makes a lot of sense for the character; and c: I don't think I have a c, but it still makes a lot of sense.

Means he was manipulating Dean to get what he wanted. Which on principle I have an issue with, given what he knows Dean's been going through. OTOH, knowing your dad told your brother he might have to kill you is grounds for some heavy distress as well.

Yep. I mean, it's still an assish little brother thing to do (not, you know, that I have ANY experience with little brothers being drunken asses in part to extract promises from their older siblings, no, none at all), but Sam's got at least some justification behind the assishness.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Aw, man, I just a pretty spoilery BSG promo. "One will X, one will X, and one will X." I didn't need to know that, dammit! I mean, none of it is totally surprising, but I hate having the prospect of such things happening confirmed.

What is even happening?

Was it broadcast? I ask because you can say what X is here, for those of us who are promo-less, due to extreme football. sigh.

And now I'm thinking the promo was C-F-M. I think I need a nap.
