Book: Afraid I might be needing a preacher. Mal: That's good. You lie there and be ironical.

'Safe'


Boxed Set, Vol. III: "That Can't Be Good..."  

A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Didn't we see both of them in the woods, after the attempt on DL's life? There was a puddle or somesuch on the ground, but I seem to remember both of them standing there.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

You may need more exposure to the facade for the radioactive superstrength woobie rays to properly penetrate.

I think Plei's right. If you don't know Dean up to that point (Home), you can't tell that that right there is Dean cracking. And yeah, that's totally the point where half the fandom went, "Oh Dean."

Going in order worked really well for me, but if you're going all the way to DMB, you might as well do the finale sequence and IMTOD. Frankly, I'm pretty vague on the distinction between between DMB, Salvation, and DT--they all blur together for me. But I do know how DT ended. Ahem.

Skin's pretty good, although possibly better in retrospect; it's got some strong character moments, plus it's valuable backstory for later, even though it seems like a one-off. But really, there's no reason to subject Dana to all of Route 666--you could just skip everything but the nekkid!Dean.

BSG will be back for at least 13 episodes in season 4, Sci-Fi officially announces Here

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That makes three announcements, doesn't it?

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Niki slumps down with her back to the mirror in the bedroom and starts talking to Jessica, who is sitting next to her.

wasn't that the folded closet door?

Ain't it cool news announced the BSG renewal early, making all but an official announcement posted at the official seem slightly squirrelly to me. Apologies for posting the same info again!

That's what I thought, too. I didn't realize it was the mirrored door until she stood up to leave.

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

Dresden Files: We don't know that Raskin didn't take her boyfriend's ears and teeth after he died. If that was all that remained to free her, his death would have been a waste if she didn't. I can imagine that she did, and that was the thing that sent her to the loonybin.

(Okay, basically it's sloppy writing, but I can handwave it to my satifaction.)

Is it wrong that my mind is writing not only a fanfic which takes care of this "missing scene", but also supplies the pr0n behind Harry and Heather's sudden lurve? ... Yes.

but didn't she become human after he died? there was a flash of light and she said that it worked. She didn't take his ears after the fact.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

wasn't that the folded closet door?

I rewatched the scene. The closet doors were both closed, so it was one flat surface. Both Niki and Jessica are sitting on the floor with the mirrored doors behind them.
