Jossverse 1: Emotional Resonance & Rocket Launchers  

TV, movies, web media--this thread is the home for any Joss projects that don't already have their own threads, such as Dr. Horrible.

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

My god, what did and didn't happen between Paul and Echo and Priya and Victor and Adele and Topher. So much room.

But that's what fic's for, huh.

I had a reaver flash when the bus pulled up, and my heart fell. Victor was hawt.

I knew one of the guys would die, and this way is the less sad. So, gentle for Joss. They'll still be together--it will just always be masturbation.

Oh, Poor Topher. Poor, poor Topher. Never thought I'd think that. And poor Adele. What happened to Dominic?

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

If the mainframe was destroyed then Dominic probably is dead.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

And Paul just got shot down like a dog? Holy SHIT!!! Jossing us good, ain't he.

Someone's been watching The Sarah Connor Chronicles.

I got to say, whatever Eliza's other shortcomings thespian-wise, she's got an incredible gift for acting violent rage leading into grief and/or self-loathing.

Yeah, that scene actually made me buy the Echo/Paul thing.

They'll still be together--it will just always be masturbation.

Ha, yeah, that's what I was thinking as well.

Oh, Poor Topher. Poor, poor Topher. Never thought I'd think that.

I really didn't want him to die, but if he was going to, that was the best way to do it.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I think Topher could have designd a remote trigger if he'd wanted to.

Oh, totally. But I feel like Topher had been wanting to kill himself for years for what he'd done, but he kept himself alive and powered through insanity just so he could undo it.

Because Joss never casually killed anyone before?

I'm not sure about these guys and remote triggers. I figured they could have used one and kept wiped Boyd alive too. Hmm. But then they would have had Rossum back now.

My current takeaway from this is sweetly haunting, which is not really a place I expect Joss to leave me. Definitely worth rewatching back to back with Epitaph 1 soon.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

That's what we did last night, and I'm glad. So much to take in.

I guess we were supposed to think that Paul-in-Echo was poignant? I thought it was creepy!

Art Crawl!!!

I thought it was creepy too. And the Grr Argh came up so abruptly.

But - when Echo had her tantrum? I started crying and I think I kept on crying 'til the end.

Yeah, this, like the Peacekeeper Wars in Farscape-verse, is just chockful of what might have been.

Yeah, I wondered if that was a transmission error. Did that happen to West Coast people as well?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

My DVR cut out before Grr Argh. Did he do anything different?
