Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yeah, I'll help out, too. Amazing what unemployment does for one's schedule....

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I'd offer to help, but I am too busy being baked goods. And I do not mean baked.

I'm always sad when we work things over, but with Dana, DX and amych, I think the faq is in good hands.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Random question, just so I don't fuck up:

From the Angel thread, it sounds like there was a promo tonight with the main cast addition character. I honestly am confuzzled by the spoiler policy at this point -- I know that the amendment that recently passed meant we would talk about that character in the Angel thread, but now that a promo featuring that character has aired, can we talk about that character addition in *any* NAFDA thread?

Like I said, it's not a crusade on my part; just a desire to not mention something in a place I shouldn't mention it.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

That actually brings up a bigger question. Which threads do we currently have listed as NAFDA that shouldn't be anymore? As far as I can see, only the Angel threads and Smallville would be NAFDA at this point, no?

We always considered Bitches and Bitchy Fic to be NAFDA, didn't we? And, Jesus God, it's hard to talk about this, when even THIS thread is a spoiler-free zone, so WHITEFONT AHEAD: Bitches kind of HAS to be NAFDA for the Shiny New Character, only it's impossible to actually say that in this thread without giving it away for the people who still don't know.

Does that make sense?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Angel, Smallville, and Bitches/Bitchy Fic seem to be the only NAFDA threads left. Yipes, we need more shows!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

SPOILERS IS NADFA!!

Ahem. Sorry. *g*

Yeah, umm. Promo means fair game in ALL NAFDA, right?

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

Yeah, umm. Promo means fair game in ALL NAFDA, right?

That is the definition as I recall it.

'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"

Minearverse needs to be NAFDA. I'm not sure what the plans are to run the show overseas, but it will probably be needed.


Jesse - Sep 04, 2003 6:56:23 am PDT #5043 of 10005
Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, what ever happened with combining those couple of threads?
