[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the show and ancillary materials such as web comics! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it. Chuffa, Chuffa!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I could be misremembering though.

No, it's what Jess said. They weren't going to be paid. Moore threw a fit. So they were paid, but they weren't credited. And Moore said, "Fine, you can't have the webisodes." And the production company basically went into their offices and took them (which Moore said was within their rights).

Ah. This is where I got the "Suck it creatives" from.

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

Ron Moore:

It was all very new stuff. And it was very eye opening, because the studio's position was 'Oh, we're not going to pay anybody to do this. You have to do this, because you work on the show. And we're not going to pay you to write it. We're not going to pay the director, and we're not going to pay the actors.' At which point we said 'No thanks, we won't do it.'"

"We got in this long, protracted thing and eventually they agreed to pay everybody involved

The Office writers/actors/directors got squat, though, according to this.

So now I'm suspicious of all "new media" and wondering just how much the studios are screwing over the people creating it.

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

Multiple personality disorder? Psychological illness? Doubt it.

I wasn't speaking about curing Niki in this way: Niki has a crazy virus. I wonder if Claire's blood can cure her of that.

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.

Oh. If blood of a regen cures, then you would think so. Unless the virus has been engineered to resist that somehow (maybe has its own Adam DNA incorporated. )

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

Adam mentions the company tried to kill him and it didn't stick...they must not have been trying very hard, since both Claire and Peter have been killed.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

So, they can shoot Noah, as long as he gets some of Claire's blood and heals before he dies. The eye shot makes that seem impractical, but it makes sense with what they seem to be lining up.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

Why couldn't Adam's blood heal Niki's disorder? Brain's part of the body, people. It's not like crazy elves crawled into her head or something; it's a medical condition.

Besides, if Peter can "heal" his memories, we have evidence that his power extends to the brain.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I feel that replicating other powers is something Peter "does" while healing is something Adam "is". Therefore, take the blood out of Peter and it's no longer part of his power whereas Adam's blood is part of him.
