Simon: I, uh... I never-never shot anyone before. Book: I was there, son. I'm fair sure you haven't shot anyone yet.

'War Stories'


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.

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

Russell, you bastard.

::sniff::

My sister's trying to get me to finish off watching Kings, and says that the final episode is no longer the series finale, but is just the season finale. Did it get picked up by someone?

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

I've been waiting for today for what feels like forever.

I felt almost cruel lurking while the unspoiled were still in their happy places.

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

not that I know of. No one is watching it except you and me, ita.

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

Austin, I agree. It has been like reliving the upsetting nature of the mini-series all over again.

The upside of being a writer-- I may want to kick his ass, but I understand why he did it and I might have done the same damned thing myself.

Still... Russell, you bastard.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I've been waiting for today for what feels like forever.

I felt almost cruel lurking while the unspoiled were still in their happy places.

Me, too!

(Unrelated to Barb: I met a writer at dinner tonight who knows you through RWA -- Liz Bemis. My world is too, too, TOO freaking small.)

Yeah, the name's definitely familiar. I know she was a Golden Heart (unpublished author) finalist this year. Wow. Seriously small world.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I want my Ianto back!!!!!! I would have much rather that he killed off Gwen, frankly. Mostly because of the hot gay sex aspect to be honest.

Yeah, the name's definitely familiar. I know she was a Golden Heart (unpublished author) finalist this year. Wow. Seriously small world.

She was talking about something something awards, something something romance, and she had previously said she was a writer, and so I butted in at an appropriate break and asked, "Were you at RWA?"

And she gave me the look of I-didn't-expect-you-to-ask-that-since-you're-in-a-whole-other-sphere-of-my-life, and said, "Yeah."

So I said I knew you, but identified you as Barb [lastname], and she gave me a blank look, so I said that you wrote Adios, and she said, "Oh! Caridad [lastname]! Oh yeah, I've met her!"

Freaky small world.

Anyway. Back to Torchwood and the Minear-ing of Ianto.
