Mmmm.
I think I'd need to see him in action with Lex and/or Clark to be sure.
Lots of action.

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

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Dark Knight is Bruce Wayne? In any case, was he shot/horribly injured so that's why he's in PT?

the buzz at work was suspecting/speculating we were seeing some early Dark Knight action under an assumed name here, and that would make me very, very happy.
That would be very, very cool. I don't remember the character's name, if we heard it. And Batman is supposed to show up this season, no?
I watched Charmed last night. Very very bad boots on Phoebe. Also, doesn't creating a man and a feast for Piper's birthday sort of violate the "no magic for personal gain" thing? or is it okay becase Piper herself didn't do the spell?

It's a remora, dimwit.
If the spell was done in order to help someone else, I think it'd be considered okay - well, the feast would - creating the man would be more of a gray area.

I thoought the someone else had to be an unCharmed One.

I think it'd depend more on the purpose of helping - just cheering someone up who's depressed, or healing one who's sick - fine. Arranging it so a sib wins the lottery, or all her enemies just fall over dead, that'd be in the iffy territory. I don't watch the show anymore, I'm just going by the typical magic "no personal gain" kind of rules.

Me too, ita. Otherwise, what would stop them from just trading spells to make each other happy? It's a letter-of-the-law-but-not-the-spirit thing.
But I haven't watched enough Charmed to really understand the canon.

Sorry, Xpost. I see what you mean, Madrigal. in this case, Paige and Phoebe made a "perfect man" as a birthday present for Piper because she was giving up on love, then Paige created a birthday feast because they hadn't cooked one and people had come over. I think it's personal gain-y because they weren't totally necessary steps like healing someone or removng someone from danger, but I can see why there'd be a gift loophole.

If the purpose of the spell is to essentially bring things back to normal - get someone healthy again, or out of some current emotional funk, then it's usually okay. If they were trying to change Piper in some fundamental way, then it'd be less okay. The creating the man might be a big thing, since there's the whole issue of sentience, and responsibility for all creations, etc.

Actually, the spell they used sidestepped those issues because he only existed for 24 hours, knew why he had been created, and was okay with disappearing when the time was up. It wasn't like he had to move in and be hunky nanny for eternity.
