Is it tacky for me to comment here? Oh, dear, probably so. I apologize in advance. It's just, I wanted to say that not having an LJ yet isn't some kind of imaginary Principled Stance or something. It's that I have to finish my doctorate first, or I'll sink into a morass of LJ and never get it done. I know myself far too well, and it's one big step over my line of multitasking ability. All of you multitaskers with LJs, you have my sincere admiration!

Dorinda, late to the party. And shutting up now. *g*

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

"Shut. Up." Kelly pulled fiercely, his eyes blurring with adrenaline and effort. "I've. Got you. You ain't. Going anywhere."

"Hey," Scotty said again, his lips to Kelly's ear. "I've got you. You ain't going anywhere."

God, I could hear them there. You are so good at these boys.

Hi there! I'm so glad you dug it! And as you know, you are no slouch your ownself. *g*

And...*splutter* YOUR ICON! Grar. That scene slays me. Otherwise known as, "Uncle Scotty and Uncle Kelly are going into their room for some (naked) Alone Time now, Stefan. Nighty night."

Oh god, yes. :D I also have to cap "Red Sash of Courage" soon, because of that whole scene with them sitting practically in one anothers' laps on the bed, and Scotty giving Kel that GORGEOUS affectionate grin when the girl explains the "English lessons" Kel gave her, and them waltzing the two guys down the hallway. I was almost asleep when I watched that last scened and I swore I'd hallucinated it. :D

I swore I'd hallucinated it.

"I Spy: the show so slashy, you'll think you made it up!"

God. I don't know this show from Adam, but I want to!

lamardeuse September 25 2006, 09:37:59 UTC

You have browsed my I Spy galleries, right? Because it will convert you, precious. :D

20thcenturyvole September 25 2006, 09:39:51 UTC

Oh, yeah. Trust me, I'm already converted - I just want to see if these two honestly do spend that much time touching each other. And wearing such gay pants!

20thcenturyvole September 25 2006, 15:08:43 UTC

Hee! Yes. And you know what they say: like wearer, like pants.

Well, you know I love this. How you can capture the exact flavor of the show, in just 499 words, just amazes me. I love Kelly's fierce focus on saving Scotty, and the consequences for that, and I love Scotty's...practical way of handling said consequences. ;-) It's wonderful.

Now, you know you want to do some more challenges, right? Go on, you know you want to....

msmoat September 25 2006, 15:12:24 UTC

in just 499 words

*looks shifty* Oh, but you forgot about the asterisk break! (...which Microsoft Word certainly didn't. Alas.)

And thanks for saying so! You are partly to blame. Troublemaker.

Go on, you know you want to....

I would look around for the angel on my other shoulder, see what it has to say, but somehow I think that one's long gone.

The mind-control rays must be working because I was just re-reading "Wheat From Chaff" last night.

::adjusts tin hat::

So them. So matter-of-fact and full of love and determination and banter.

I am incoherent. My appreciation cannot be rendered textually.

;a;ljdaljfla;jdfjajsf!!!!!!

::adjusts tin hat::

You are getting sleeeeepier... er, no, wait. You are getting slaaaaaashier...

And thanks very much for the incoherence! It's the best tribute!

I was just re-reading "Wheat From Chaff" last night.

And that's wonderful to hear as well! I also have a brand new one up, you might have seen, "He Travels Fastest":

...there's no eggbeater in it, though. *thinks* Nope. Eggs, but no eggbeater.

Hmmm, suddenly I feel slashier.

And like taking a nap.
