Dude. DUDE. FINALLY saw the ep. Trickster for the motherlovin' WIN!! Whee!!

(Also? That actor is local to my nabe, and was in a film set here. Sweet!)

Ahem. snorgles Trickster, who would like me, because I have a big-ass tattoo of one of his facets. Yes.

What, you expected intelligent commentary? Pshaw.

I saw the Trickster on a season 1 episode of Jericho last night, where he plays a small-town cop. Very amusing.

Trickster is ftw. I love that guy. I am really curious to see what his motivation really is--if he has a definite stake in what is going on. Tricksters, in mythology, are not evil--just mischievous and wise right? I am no expert on trickster folklore but I seem to remember something to that effect in the Coyote stories my uncle told me as a kid. Of course I doubt he was an expert either. =)

I'm watching the Trickster right now on a repeat of CSI Miami.

Always feel the need to tag AIFG at the end of a sentence like that.

NSM evil-intentioned, at least. Definitely not always looking out for the betterment of humanity (though their antics often further humanity's interest). Sometimes petty and mean, sometimes wise, often possessing of a twisted-ass sense of humor. Trickster's role, usually, is to step outside of the god- or human-created boundaries and show what happens next.

the Trickster is actually a semi-regular on Jericho. he was in the season two premiere too.

Yeah, and don't forget that he was in Band of Brothers.

My guess is that he doesn't want demons to take over the Earth because that would be no fun for him.

Ah, the happy meals on legs defense. Works for me.

Wasn't everyone?

Does that make it less important?
