GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I'm going to be seeing it with a couple people who haven't seen it on Friday (as well as a ton of people who have) and I'm actually feeling kind of guilty in a bizarre way because I know what a severe gut punch Wash's death was to me (and it still makes me sad to think about) and for whatever reason I feel like I'm inflicting that same pain on my friends and that it might be kinder to leave them in the TV-verse where Wash (and Book) still lives.

Which I realize is totally silly, especially since the rest of the movie still rocks like a grandma on crystalmeth. But it's there.

If I only had a brain...

Dammit. He killed Wash. The bastard.

Frell, yes.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

TOTALLY. And you added to the fakeout, because I was sure that Book's death was what you were referring to.
I thought that it might throw you. Which really just makes it that much more of a sucker punch in the gut to me when he killed Wash. The bastard.

Fridays on SciFi are very emotional now. The dino scene, in particular, brought on the pain for me.

The bits that get me are all the plans he liked to make with Zoe, about having a holiday, or buying a dress. Also the bit in HoG where Zoe's trying to talk him into trying for a baby. Argh, kills me.

Ooof! I haven't rewatched HoG since I saw the movie in May. That is going to hurt. I want them to have babies...

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter.

Yea!

"I want to meet that child one day."

Definitely gut punch.

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

Maybe he has sperm on ice somewhere, and .. and ...

Don't look at me like that.


Jars - Sep 23, 2005 9:36:35 am PDT #1244 of 1424

Maybe she's already pregnant, is my theory. Because I too really, really want to meet that child some day.

Art Crawl!!!

That's got to be SOP, right? right?
