SFW: The one with the flirting in it...

[lyssie]

Bones: I could not love this show more. Possibly.

Sully. I like this guy. Can we keep him? He's off-beat, a little weird, and, well, that kind of fits right INTO the whole Bones crew. Not to mention. Sullivan. Does the FBI hire only men with odd first names? (Fox. Seeley. Sullivan. What next, Hortense?)

I like that we actually got a little backstory for him---in his intro episode (BSG writers, take note, that? Was far more effective than the Shocking Revelation of Kat's Backstory and Dad's Emo, not to mention, FAR BETTER than the Adama Marriage crap you plan on foisting upon us soon).

"I don't know." Oh, BOOTH. You're human. You can't control the whole world, though you want to.

Seriously. Therapy through building a barbecue pit = awesome.

So was the fact that he and Brennan TALK about shit, and she calls him and he calls her, and... they're partners, and it was jarring for them not to be working together, but they dealt.

--Speaking of Sully again, HOW AWESOME is he? "I've been hanging around a real woman all day. You should try it sometime." Srsly. Can we keep him?

"Got caught in a pornado." Hodgins, you are NOT getting laid tonight... Probably.

I love that Booth was so adamant about being straight. OH BOOTH, the boyslashers won't care! You could have been in a monogamous, het relationship for your entire run on Bones, and you'd still be boyslashed.

Also. As much as I love the idea of Booth and Brennan hooking up and doing Teh Sex, and trying for some sort of relationship, I don't think it would ever make it as more than a brief fling. He wants a commitment, and that's something I don't think she'll ever consciously give. Unconsciously? Now that's another story, entirely--please see her every call to Booth in the last episode. 'cause. She needs him, but she doesn't Need him. If that makes sense.

So, Sully? Sully is free and easy, and wouldn't have a problem with that, I don't think.

Oh, how much do I want to see him get in her pants? A LOT.

ALSO. "My brain adjusts quickly." Brennan! That was SO a pick-up line.

I liked the case, too, if anyone wondered. Bill S. Preston, Esquire as a titty boy was awesome. And I liked that Angela was stupid (OH ANGELA), and that the dad... snapped. omg. yes.

HOW MUCH DO I LOVE THIS SHOW.

Srsly.

I. Just. dUDE. I keep expecting to hate it, and I don't.

Okay, not the person to ask, but I don't know Bones fandom so I'll ask you anyway: who does Booth get slashed with? I cannot seem to get my slash goggles on for this show at all and only see het.

Hodgins and Zack, iirc. I've seen it and gone, "...." at it. (I also do that at most of the Bones fic I see, though)

I saw a Bones/Doctor Who/Torchwood crossover that was pretty good. It was at sixth_light's journal. There's the first few chapters of a sequel too.

Oh, I'm not saying it's bad. I'm just... cynical. And in some ways uninterested in reading the fic--I'm getting the kind of stuff I read fic for from canon. Which is kind of disturbing.

[wishfulaces.livejournal.com]

This is why I--we--rely on you to rec the good Bones fic you do find. :)

I loved Sully too! He was a riot. Plus he had cooler hair than Booth. We definitely need more of him. I think he could be good for Brennan.

I'm not sure I buy Booth being so stressed out and upset that he pulled out his gun and shot an ice cream truck clown. Though the look on Brennan's face was to die for.

I caught Bill, but I didn't realize until someone told me that French Stewart was the preacher.

I think it does kind of fit--but only if you add in everything else he hasn't been able to control, plus, well, he wanted Epps dead. I think Booth would have been fine: if he'd shot Epps himself. But the chance of maybe he did, maybe he didn't? That ate at him.

'pornado' made me nearly fall off my chair. Srsly!

(ps--You! Timey! Totally addicted to V. Teng now. kthnxbye)

I went, "Hodgins! I love you!" and the cat gave me a funny look.

(GOOD! HAHAHAH)

[scarfman]

I have read or heard that we do get to keep him.

I'm watching for a second time now cuz qtrhorserider didn't see it last night. I'm going to try again to spot French Stewart, as he is definitely in the credits.

[lyssie.livejournal.com]

whoot!

Good luck! (I kinda want to watch it again. hrm)

[scarfman]

I think French Stewart is the religious fanatic. Nice range on that guy.
