The whole world can... frell itself. Yeah.
Not that I'm in a bad mood. Far from it. I'm in a good mood. There was Timeyfic in my (proverbial) In Box, I have accomplished ALL of my errands (including the library), and I now have more Farscape to watch.
I still hate with a blinding passion the end to Agatha Christie's 'Sittaford Mystery' (or the Murder at Hazelmoor as the book is called). Emily will be bloody bored in less than six months with that twat she's marrying.
Last night, I finished Timothy Zahn's duology, which are ten years after the original Star Wars trilogy he did. I was amused at quote a bit of it. It's predictable. Zahn was driving for Mara and Luke to boink from the first time they met in Heir to the Empire (dude. No one couldn't see the UST), but betwixt and between, various other authors slipped in their own Mary Sues to beguile Luke.
He also did a credible job weaving all those previous disparate plotlines into his narrative. Even if I don't think he liked them (dude, I think he read the books. This could explain his disdain).
All in all, fairly decent books, even if he can't really do romance to save his life (*I* could have written better Luke/Mara).
The thought occurred, though, and carried into my dreams... Mara and Aeryn and Dom are terribly alike. Mara and Aeryn especially. Although I don't think Aeryn's ever wanted to kill Crichton violently for destroying her life (which he kinda did, y'know).
Luke and Crichton and Cable are, too. In different ways.
And I've already mentioned the Thrawn/Scorpius/Sinny connections. I like Timey's theory, too. That Crais is Essex and Scorpius is Sinny. There's a sense to it.
Yes. I do rather have a lot of things on my brain.
