You are also sick.
Damn you, Bridget! Damn you to Hades! You broke my heart in a million pieces! You made me love you, and then you-- I SHAVED MY BEARD FOR YOU, DEVIL WOMAN!

Boxed Set, Vol. 1: Smallville, Due South, Farscape
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much anything else that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

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

Heh, heh. Choking on grapes here.
OK ... need a little terminology help. Gen?

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

No sex. Especially no creepy alien sex.
Shame on you, Katie.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
General fiction. Usually means fiction where romance is not an important part, though depending on the fandom it might just mean there's no explicit sex.

Hey, I didn't say I was interested in it as porn, which I am not. I'm just sayin', the idea that Thor's crushing on Jack is pretty easy to support canonically. Much easier than Jacob/Bra'tac.

Gotcha. Thanks.
Tales from the pew: We're reading something aloud in church this morning, and I mispronounce Earth as Ert. Which makes me think of Aeryn calling it Erp in the pilot. Which makes me smile, because I've linked to Farscape from the pew. And then, naturally, Farscape makes me think of Boxed Set. Which, most recently, makes me think of fanfic and J/D slash. So I get a reserved set of the giggles, 'cuz, you know, not really where I expect J/D to pop into my head (ETA: and because I am 12). And then I'm thinking, "Hey! I have that story to read when I get home." And finally, I'm like, "Right. Church. Focus."

I, on the other hand, am curious about Jacob/Bra'tac.
I'm all about the Daniel/Bra'tac.
Mostly for the challenge of it, I think. I mean, have they ever interacted at all, aside from just being present in the same scene?

Well, I saw the Season 2 premiere last night (In the Serpent's Hand?), and yeah, the Jack/Daniel subtext is flying freely all over the place.
Again, I am boggled by the emotional reserve of these characters. They left Daniel behind to die, saw the ship explode, had no reason ever to expect to see him again. He. Was. Dead.
I'm sorry, if I were to see someone pop up who I was convinced was dead, I -- and let me note here, I'm fairly reserved myself -- I would squee and launch myself at them. Hugs! Affirmation of aliveness! Much yelling! (Hell, I do that for close friends I haven't seen in a long time.)
Slow smiles and sequential hugging? I don't buy it. (Although the "Spacemonkey!" thing was absurd and cute and totally fed the slashy subtext, if you chose to read it that way.)
I won't get into the reasons Jack left Daniel behind: they made no sense, and I expect there was a lot of discussion about that in the fandom when the episode first aired (6 years ago! heh). Jack doesn't leave people behind, even if he thinks it's a suicide mission. They go together.
