And, one is down... dunno how many to go...

Posted the Cally/Avon piece to ff'net. I feel somewhat accomplished, and somewhat not. It works, scarily. And doesn't work, scarily. Eh. I will live.

At least it's one more piece DONE and finished, and I can move the fuck on.

Finally watched 'Pretense'. The Tollan? So deserved to die. Thank you, Apophis, for Anubis.

And Tanith.

Because the superior bastards SO needed an ass-kicking.

Re-watched 'Urgo'. I SO needed the amusement factor. SO needed it.

The whole spending half the day with porn in my brain? Yeah. Fried it. Although I' have notes, like, "Morning--half-awake nipple stimulation." "More porn."

And, the dialogue that began it...

"I can't believe I'm buyin' you."

"Zoe likes me. And," I fluttered my lashes at him, "Mal, you're so sweet! And, no, I *don't* charge by the hour."

He smirked. "Damn."

I also have this really freaky theory about why Nyssa and Tegan were so dumb in Mawdryn Undead.

A. Nyssa? Still recovering from the whole Adric is dead thing. Plus, she and Adric were about to finally have sex, and she's still pissed about it.
B. Tegan? Still recovering from being posessed by a Goa'uld. Er. Snake. Mara. Thing.

So, yeah. Skaara, Tegan, Sam... They could have some nice happy chats about what it's like to be used by a parasitical creature.

I also have the immortal line of, "Why, Carter, you intergalactic space hussy!" at the top of my page. With nothing indicating where it *goes*.

I mean, I know some of the random bits are for the post-Death Knell piece. But. Eh.

Hrm. I should sleep. There's this... work thing I have to do tomorrow.

THANK APOPHIS FUCKING SOKAR THAT IT IS FRIDAY.

And thank Heru'ur, too. And Hathor. And Anubis... (Hathor fucking Anubis? Nah, doesn't have the same ring to it...)

That post read a little strange to me since I thought the Mara were the giant crabs. Turns out that's the Macra.

*blinks* Someone should add a zip across the mouth of Anubis' mask.

Anubis the S&M gimp?

Hrm. When done well, I like Cally/Avon, I so do. I liked that. I'll have to read it again. (Thank god you switched 'em back, though, cuz one of my pet peeve stories was one that didn't, and I was worried I'd have to be pissed off at you for reminding me of it.) :)

Yeah. Some people go all sentimental on those two, and it's crap. But then, sentimentality and B7 in general, not a good combo.

See, that so doesn't work. Cally and Avon are SO not sentimental. That would be, like, Hitler. Buying cute chocolates and teddy bears for, uh, a Jewish black man, and declaring his undying love.

Um. I wouldn't go quite so far as that analogy... but, er, yeah, sorta. I mean, Avon can't even tell the woman he actually loved that he loved her. And Cally's really not that much better, when you look at her. It's just not a show that encourages sentimentality, and they're not sentimental characters.

I read one fic where they came close to being functional lovers, and it worked only because it was clearly delineated as a purely physical convenience thing, and the 'l' word would have put a screeching halt to the whole thing, and the whole arrangement was a little awkward, despite the good sex.
