You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

River ,'Objects In Space'

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

If I only had a brain...

Betsy, when does Captain Alatriste get released in the US?

There's a movie? Huh. I hadn't heard. Then again, the movie of The Fencing Master was pretty terrible.

Re: the Musketeers, I was always invested in Milady. Take that as you will.

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

Viggo.

According to IMDB, Alatriste's release date is December 22, 2006. It'll be interesting to see how an all-Spanish-language epic swashbuckler starring a rather prominent American actor is going to do at the box office.

I've found out that not as many people as I'd have thought know Viggo more than knowing who you meant when you pointed out he was Aragorn.

However, I think his fluent Spanish will work for him.

I think Freddy Quimby should walk out of here a free hotel

Kind of difficult to consider them particularly romantic though, although they deal with the subject of romance most of the time. Hmmm.

I think that's because while a romantic novel has to include a romance, a novel with a romance doesn't have to include romanticism.
