Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?

For a minute, I thought you said JaYne, and I realized the Firefly crossovers are probably there for a reason. I would totally watch/read that, and Wonderfalls, too.

God, Jaye's skepticism blow off the top of her head, despite her talking brass monkey.

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

Wonderfalls had, I felt, potential edge. The world wasn't on the line, or anything, but still.

The snark was fantastic. And Jaye had that cynicism going, too.

I still keep coming up with shows I would have loved to see on Changing Channels -- something animated, like The Simpsons, and even something like a PBS round table show. Which probably only I would have found funny, but I can just see Dean scowling at Charlie Rose.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

And Sam engaging in earnest discourse. Indeed.

I don't know anything about PBS, but I will never not think Dean+Oprah=comedy gold.

I am trying, in another window, to write down everything I ship. It's clear that if there is such a thing as a "shipper", I'm clearly one of them. Big ol' shipper ho. Someone asked who I shipped, and I'm so disappointed with the list of about 15 couples I tossed off, because it looks like I don't care about Captain Jack/Ianto, and that's clearly untrue...fuck--I didn't even remember Sam/Brady.

I'd have to think about who I ship. I only do it with some shows. Bobby/Sheriff Mills was a favorite sort of secondary one for SPN. But I also draw a line between who I think would have hot sex and who's in lurvvvve, in my head. (For example: Sam/Brady? Hot sex, maybe once or twice. Dean/Cas? Lurvvvve.) Meaning that I don't really consider it ship unless it's the latter. For me, anyway.

I was also going through criteria of what makes a non-canon ship interesting to me (I really don't know what sets a canon ship apart from the rest), and that's helping me file--like, I'd say I ship Sam/Brady, because there's a place I'd put it in my version of canon, not just in my wish fulfillment, if that makes sense. It's a dodgy line, and no one will draw exactly the same one I do across all the shows and movies, but, say-Stiles/Derek? Fun to think about, kinda sexy, but nothing to do with my head canon at all, so I wouldn't say I ship it. Same with White Collar's OT4, but OT3? Definitely.

There's an OT4?

With Mozzie.

Ah. Yeah, not my ship at all.

I think I fail at this game, because as far as I can tell (with the exception of, say, White Collar's OT3, or general slash), I tend to ship canon relationships. Buffy/Angel. Scully/Mulder. Parker/Hardison. Rachel/Ross. Fred/Wesley.

How weird.
