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.

'Our Mrs. Reynolds'


Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon  

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Pretty sure that firing an employee from a government job* for a supposed drug addiction (or even a proven drug addiction) is grounds for a lawsuit.

Let's see if Laurel actually knows the law she purports to uphold.

Completely late, but I just watched the Sleepy Hollow finale tonight. I can't remember the last time I was so delighted by a cliffhangery season-ender. I was completely surprised, and I didnt find it too far-fetched (well, I mean within the framework of the show's world) to make sense. The twists I was expecting didn't happen, or at least not how I expected (Jeremy). Very cool.

I'm good with Sleepy Hollow just making shit up. Mythical stuff, plot stuff, wardrobe stuff - it's all good.
I am so in love with the fistbump. I keep thinking about it - isn't that what every fistbump essentially means? I am really me, and you are really you, and we are actually here together. Love.

It's been said before, but LOVE.

Also, I need to start watching Arrow.

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.

Caught up on lost girl; inspired this snippet of micro comment fiction. =============================================
Kenzie: "Hey Trickster, you know we both lurve Bo, but you keep kvelling about how smart she is"

Trick: "So?"

Kenzie: "Just thinking. When you say that, you maybe mean by Fae standards. I mean lets face it, you Fae are kind of walking pyschic tapeworms, and tapeworms are not famous for smarts. And seein the planning skill of your greatest heroes and villains well a girl can help thinkin..."

Trick "That is downright insulting."

Kenzie: "Now Trickster, no need to get mad. These days the Fae have all sort of sciency types working for them. Don't tell me some of your human eggheads have not given the 'compare IQ tests thing' a whirl."

Trick (indignantly) "IQ test are meaningless and lack scientific validity!"

Kenzie (smugly): "S'what I thought."

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Yeah, 'smart' isn't the first adjective choice for Bo. Maybe the 20th?

But also "smart" is not a word I'd use for most of the Fae. So maybe Bo is smart by Fae standards.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Arrow:

I hope that SWAT team got a thorough chewing out for shooting up the city archives simply because someone who might have been the vigilante was in there. Yeesh.

Okay, Arrow isn't even over yet and I just squealed loudly enough to scare the dog. FUCK. YES. Ollie and Roy. "We're just getting started."

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I have no idea. That's disconcerting.
