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

You're welcome! I wonder whether he had any long-term plans for Klara or Hisako, for instance, and what he thinks of the characters presently. Does he bother conceiving a future for the characters beyond what he'll get to write? Because it's likely the next writer will have no idea what his thoughts were and take the character in a different direction.

And it's different from running a television series because even though different writers are writing your characters, you still get to supervise. Collaborative storytelling is stressful! If you're a control freak like me.

Be sure to come back and post a link to the interview!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I have no Joss questions. Only RIO!!!!! asscaps and exclamation points.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Rio!

I've missed you terribly.

I'll think up some questions.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Two questions:

1. As a fan of musicals and a director of action sequences, do you think an action sequence can serve the same function as a song in a musical? That is, can you choreograph the action to reveal character and advance the plot rather than just create the spectacle of somebody outrunning a fireball?

2. When you did the uncredited rewrite of "Lover's Walk" on Buffy you reportedly locked yourself in a hotel room with a stack of punk rock cassettes by Husker Du and The Replacements. What did you listen to when you wrote "Objects in Space" (Firefly) and "Epitaph" (Dollhouse)?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

RIO!!!!

Does Joss consider blueberry an appropriate flavor for a bagel, or should it be reserved for muffins?

Also, when is he going to move on from feminism 101 to a more advanced class? Where mature women have agency, too?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I have a question for Joss:

What does he think of Fox's decision to air a new series which is being billed as a western...in space!

I'm not sure if he has been asked that question yet. I certainly haven't seen his reaction.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

If Joss had his own TV network, how would he run it?

Are you ready to be strong?

Hey Le Nubian, what show are you talking about?

Are you ready to be strong?

P.S. Hi the rest of you guys. It is so, so nice to see you all again.
