Ellen, in Natter:
Gus - so sorry about the rabies! And now I feel bad because I COMM'd your pain.
Inara: So, explain to me again why Zoe wasn't in the dress? Mal: Tactics, woman. Needed her in the back. 'Sides, those soft cotton dresses feel kinda nice. It's the whole... air-flow.

ZeusGirl talking about season ranking in Buffy (I think pretty non-spoilery):
My ranking:
6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, and six.
Then 3, 2, 4, 1, and 5.
Someone said something about a 7th season. What happened in that one?

Caroma talking about a pairing in Buffy (spoiler-blocked for your protection):
Kennedy's persistent state of living still bugs me, but in their last scenes I started to buy W/K, the least hot lesbians on TV. The secret is for them not to talk. Or touch each other. And be at least 20 feet away from each other at all times. Those have been their best scenes.

Robert H, in Firefly, spoilery for UnAmericans:
You know, with the kernel of Book-Jayne friendship, and Mal looking for reasons to trust Jayne after "Ariel", wouldn't it just be beautiful if Jayne reformed through religion?
MAL: "Yeah, he's not selling my crew to the Feds any longer, but . . . but . . . two Bible-thumpers on my ship?!"
WASH: "I could start hating God with you, Mal. I mean, if it would help balance things out. Plus, making fun of Jayne? Gravy."

In Buffy, spoilery for 7.21 and 7.22.
Jacqueline Zahas: It just occurred to me that we never did find out what was in the note she left him after the best night of his life.
Teppy:
Dear Spike,
Look, the fate of the world could be in my hands (*again*, which, I don't mind telling you, is getting really old), and I just needed one. good. night's. sleep. But --
YOU SNORE!!!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
In Natter:
billytea: Apropos of nothing, the philosopher Moritz Schlick, famed as one of the founders of logical positivism, was shot and killed by one of his students in 1936 after giving said student a failing grade. In Ethics.
Typo Boy: pretty much proving that the grade was, in fact, correct.
eta: Nilly, duly noted, and thanks!

JZ, the unknown Buffista who reads like billytea is, indeed, billytea.

Shawn in Natter:
Typical sci-fi authors imagine people in the future having excessively large brains inside of huge heads mounted on spindly little bodies. However, judging by current trends in the USA (the world's most technologically sophisticated country), a far likelier scenario is one in which people sit in massive jet-propelled thrones that carry their bloated bodies and tiny, withered-from-disuse heads all around the world, where they can eat everything unfortunate enough to cross their paths.

JZ enters Natter, smiling sunnily; looks around at all the surly funky swollen and inchoately disconsolate Natterers surrounding her; falters, stares fixedly at her shoes (black, open toed, pink toenail polish for those keeping track); digs into her purse and begins distributing pacifiers, blankets, Spanish almonds, sex toys, single malt Scotch, and Zoloft.
Does any of this help?
Ummm, how about a shiny nickel?
JZ, that's twice I've commed you today, even if you were setup to Teppy before.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
even if you were setup to Teppy before.
That's a VERY worthy spot, I'll have you know!
