*updates* SFF, femslash_land randomness, ficlet

SFF (mostly non-spoilery: Nikita, Warehouse 13, Lost Girl, Covert Affairs, The Walking Dead)
Nikita! Like, seriously, you know what the problem with being all caught up is? THE JONESING FOR MORE. GOD-DAMN. (it snuck up on me, lemme tell you) I'm still amused that no one's caught Alex, I MISS JADEN, and I'm still grain of salting it. BUT DAMN. Having to wait for more suuucks.

Warehouse 13, season one and the first episode of two. OMG MYKA IS HOT. ahem. I don't have many thoughts on it? It's kinda like popcorn. Mostly: bad guy boring, less Artie please, less Pete saving the day, more Myka and Claudia and Leena (we will Not Talk About That Thing That Happened Lest I Rage), and MORE MRS. FREDERICK WTF, why isn't she the lead?

Lost Girl. Awwwwwwww. EVERYONE LOVES KENZI. She is like their mortal pet rabbit. *runs* (ok, it's more than that). (also, DYSON, HONESTY IS NOT A SIN, JESUS) and more Lauren, yays. <3

Covert Affairs. Did I mention I watched the last two episodes? I did. I loled a lot. ANNIE'S LOVE MADE BEN QUIT THE CIA. Lol, show, lol. (I think I did, never mind)

The Walking Dead. Andrew Lincoln has a horrific accent (he's good at it, but I miss his real one), and he's, well, not very bright (seriously, dude, SHOES, PANTS, SHIRT, these are not hard things to find--also, going outside without knowing the situation is a bit dumb). There are walking dead people. His BFF/Partner needs to diaf. And no it's not just because he's Kat's eeevil ex from Eastwick. (although the mental image of Roxie punching him would make things better). (ok, no lie, Roxie punching people would be awesome)

[livejournal.com profile] femslash_land needs more people. Also, Team Sweeps has just gained the lead. *SO PROUD OMG*

[livejournal.com profile] sparktober is over for another year.

I may've gotten inspired to write a ficlet... Someone on the post had a Leia icon and then a Parker one.

"You want me to steal the Death Star?" Parker looked doubtful.

Leia Organa shook her head, trying not to reveal the headache she was already developing, "I want you to steal the plans for it."

"Oh! Right. The plans." Frowning, Parker leaned closer, elbow nudging her drink on the bar. "But... shouldn't that be done by the Bothans?"

"They're... busy." Leia cast a suspicious glance towards Sophie Deveraux, who was sleepily conning the bartender into selling her the place (for practice, Sophie would assure her later).

"But it's dangerous, right?"

"Yes." The situation was more desperate than Leia would like to let on, though she didn't want Parker killed.

"And my reward?"

Leia rolled her eyes, but kept her smile in place, "You'll be rewarded commensurate with your performance."

Parker frowned, "Which means lots of cash, right?"

"Yes."

With a beaming smile, Parker clapped Leia's shoulder, "We've got a deal, then. Sophie! I'm going to go steal the Death Star!"

"Plans, dear," was Sophie's calm reply as she rejoined them. She smiled. "You see, I told you she'd be perfect for this."

Leia was seriously doubting that, but this was her last chance to stop the Empire in its tracks, and she wasn't above using liars and thieves as her tools. She picked up her drink and managed a smile, "To a successful venture."

There was this article on TWOP about Nikita titled "Nikita: Ridiculous or Ridiculously Awesome?" And I was like, um, both? Because parts of it are so ridiculous. But it's so much fun, and it has Nikita and Alex and Amanda and Jayden, and they are all spunky/sassy/funny/kickass/awesome. And Michael is adorable, and Birkhoff is...well, OK, half the time I want to punch him in the face, but the other half of the time he amuses me somewhat, and it helps that during the half of the time that I want to punch him someone else usually does it for me and then Michael smirks and enjoys his pain.

Birkhoff is the computer dude, yes? Because yeah. He doesn't get punched enough. (tv writers, I am so over the Geek Stereotype Computer Guy who's really just a sleazeball, can we find something new?)

Michael just makes me laugh when he's being Mr. Intense.

I have this suspicion that I'd mock Division if I were inside of it. I mean, they are very srs bsns about themselves, and that hits me in the sarcasm button. *snickers*

That ficlet makes me so damn happy. :D Sophie and Parker go with every fandom ever.

=D

Yes. Yes, they do.

Yes! I saw that we are in the lead. Uhm...I should do the pimp thing.

You should! I sort of loathe pimping things, so, I try not to do them. Also, we could lose the lead easily, but it's still something that makes me gleeful.

*high fives for lead-gaining*

Chiana! Jool! Jool/Chiana! ♥

I still need to catch up with Nikita so I skipped that part but ITA with your thoughts on Lost Girl & The Walking Dead. I'm hoping Rick's lack of sense had to due with being in a coma for a while and that his intelligence will return soon.

Rick. Oh, that's his name. =D I HOPE SO.

I am so gleeful about the lead, because we've been steadily gaining. I have no idea if we'll hold it, but it makes me happy.

[identity profile] mfirefly10.livejournal.com 2010-11-02 03:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I think his name is Rick Grimes? Maybe? IDK...it sounds right :)

I'm pretty sure it's going to come down to the Big Bangs. 100 points is a big deal so if one team has more participation than the others, they'll slide into first place quite easily.

(also, DYSON, HONESTY IS NOT A SIN, JESUS)

True in our world. Not necessarily, traditionally, in Faerie-logic. I think one of my favorite things about the show at this point is how they translate Fae cultural norms into the modern world.

And, of course, how very very little patience Bo has for it all. ("Why, yes, I am putting a human's safety before a Fae's whim. The fact that you have a problem with this is WHY I REFUSE TO PLAY IN YOUR LAMEASS FEUD.")
