All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

They might not work in an environment where that's possible, assuming they're the sorts of actors that really grok their characters. Not all do. And not all writers will let the actors push back.

True. And I'm not in a position to know what the atmosphere is on that set, but one would think that if they're letting Boreanaz direct that the cast isn't completely voiceless.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

OH MY JESUS, Raylan shirtless in low slung jeans with no underwear. Lord, I love the iliac crest.

Testify! I had to rewind to catch the dialog.

MFNLaw was at my place last night, and I showed it to her. We enjoyed the pretty. She looked at it and said "well, you do love the iliac crest" HAR! It's nice when your friends know you.

You should get a t-shirt that says "I heart the Iliac Crest" and count how many people ask if you ski.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I swear, I don't know anyone outside of here who knows the term "iliac crest." And I've had more than a few people go "ick!" when I explained it.

Ick? Ick? It's beautiful! It's one of the best sculpted portions of the male (and female, on occasion) body.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

If that portion of the body were "icky" I don't think underwear and jeans manufacturers would feature it so prominently in their advertising.

Um, hate to be the thread nanny (and I'm surprised ita hasn't said anything, what with her bright lines and all) but Justified is Cable Drama.

Oh, yeah. Kinda distracted by iliac crests. I missed what started it all.

Noted: ita's Stompy powers are befuxzeled by iliac crests. They are the Color Yellow to her Green Lantern ring thingy.
