Consuela, that was fabulous! I loved the fifth vignette muchly--I'd love to see more of that particular AU.
Book ,'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
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.
t blushes Thanks so much, Anne. It was very fun to write, and to come up with twists that hadn't been done to death in the fandom. And yeah, I ended up liking Lantash a lot. I think it would be a kick if they ever went that way. Not that they would, now, because of what happened to Jack. But then? They might have.
I watched Prometheus Unbound last night. Didn't have the chance to post because I had many unput-offable Christmas things to do. So -
I really quite enjoyed the fight. I was giggling through most of it. Especially the hairpulling. I liked that Michael Shanks and Claudia Black seemed to be quite enjoying the silliness. My favourite part however, was as Daniel was letting Whatsername (Vala? Vara?) out of the brig, and Claudia Black had a ginormously adorable cheeky grin on her face. I think I'm in love.
In Stargate: Aquarium news, The Eye is a huge improvement on previous episodes. Especially character-wise.
Oh, God, the hair-pulling! That was the moment I went from "um, not a great fight scene" to "oh! Oh, I get it. Ha!"
I should point out that I think the Invisible Fight Scene in "Gone" is hysterically funny, though. YFSMV.
Hmmm. Prom-Un:
Well. I think I fall somewhere inbetween ita and Katie on the disliked/liked continuum. I sure enjoyed seeing Claudia. I enjoyed Hammond taking Daniel and the chair. I enjoyed Daniel zatting her before the, "Daniel, I just want you to know..." speech. And, I mean, they sure seemed to be setting her up for a return visit, no? It felt completely and utterly like a piece intened to introduce us to her. And bring back Hammond for a show. Sigh, I miss the team. I miss them so much.
All in all, though, I've enjoyed Atlantis' return from hiatus more than SG-1's. Wow, that makes me sad. No offense, Aquarium.
ETA: Oh, and on a shallow note:
Loved the rusty red streak in her hair.
She looked totally hot on stage, Jen. You've seen the pics?
I've seen one, linked from your LJ, I think. With the picture of MS next to her where Ben had been sitting. She's just... I mean, really.
She's just... I mean, really.
Pretty much, yeah. I'm not gonna let myself watch until I finish packing. Which means I shoudl do that.
I think I'm a wee bit more articulate now. The reason I can't reach the position that PU was a parody is that I don't know what it was a parody of. Wormhole Xtreme? Parody. Jack -- often parody, and not always embarassing. I need a target. And then I needed anyone to be acting like themselves. That wasn't an episode of Stargate, really. Could have been Andromeda or many others. I had no point of reference.
Agree that it felt very un-Stargate. Prometheus (the ship) kind of feels that way to me in general. It's the team interaction that feels Stargate to me, and that, again, was lacking. And actual gate travel and such. Maybe I'm just change-resistant. It's... they're usually the ones hi-jacking the alien ship, not trying to rescue an earthship (because, earthship?) from an alien. Or somthing like that. I don't know. It was weird .
She's very pretty, though. And, for that matter, so is he.
But, and here rests my fondest hope, I like to think that bringing Ben Browder in next year will mean a return to a team. That travels through the stargate. Together. And fights crime. Ya' know??
I really don't think I ask for much.
ETA: Not all of that needed whitefont.
