In Natter:
Billytea: Just as 'Eureka!!' (Oireka?) is Greek for "This bath is too hot!!"
Miracleman: I thought it meant "Give me a towel!"
ita: I thought it meant "Cold water shrinkage, I swear!"
Mmm. Wife soup. I must've done good.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Theodosia in Natter on the Pirate Cruise of Running Away:
"Hey! When I promised you 'rum, sodomy and the lash' it was meant to be like a garnish! Not 'rum, sodomy and the lash in equal proportions' and most especially not 'rum, sodomy, sodomy, sodomy, sodomy, sodomy, and oh yes the lash too.' Now furl the mainsails or topgallant the mizzenmast or whatever, just get this boat pointed in some direction. I'll be down in my cabin with the rum."

Frail my heart apart and play me a little Shady Grove
Madrigal in 'Buffy (parts spoilery, but still fun out of context):'
Spike hitting himself - it was just like when Jesse Ventura grabbed Tommy Thompson and started pounding him with his own fist and yelling, "Stop hitting yourself! Stop hitting yourself!" (Okay, that may not have happened, but I just absolutely love imagining it did. And that image kept me from switching off to Gay Austrian Musical Porn. )

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
I know how to say kill, dead, death, drunk, hurl, and spear. Yet I do not know how to say hello.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Madrigal in Angel thread:
Lilah & Angel - they could be just like the Farside wolf and sheep who are best friends until they clock in for work, then they spend 8 hours being all Nature Channely towards each other, then after 5 they go for beers. I could see them getting chummy that way - while they're being actively good or evil, they'll sort of fight, but when they aren't, they just have a good quality snark-fest.

Nutty in Buffy:
Conveniently, the Hellmouth is in Principal Wood's office, which gives a whole new meaning to the big 6-month review meeting.

Fayjay on published porn:
The stuff that gets published... Good grief. I mean, I realise (logically) that people with poor vocabularies and poorer powers of discrimination deserve books that can be read one-handedly just as much as the more pretentious & literary readers, but there's just no need for porn to suck so badly. To feature sucking, by all means, but not to suck.
Sigh.
Well written porn for the people, damn it all!

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket
Where was that?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Literary. There'sa bit of talk about porn about librarians, and Fay made the mistake (as did I) of reading some of this porn.

Nutty, in Buffy:
For the record, I'm just frighteningly clairvoyant and would never sully my pristine brain cells by reading spoilers.
I'm looking at your bank statement right now. And it's fucking great !
