Because I'm bored . . . Shippy thoughts.

Apr 16, 2010 16:01

You people are so boring. What? Do you actually have lives outside the Buffy fandom  or something?! My f-list has kinda died down after last week's flailing and LOLz at the comics, and so I'm left with nothing to do but paint my nails and play Farmville on Facebook - not a good thing. You've left me no choice but to express thinky-thoughts that may ( Read more... )

Interesting insight.

I do think there are some fundamental differences in the way the Spuffies and Bangel's view the characters and the series. I suspect that there is indeed a preference divide over the whole free will/partnership vs destiny/soul mate tropes.

Re: Space fucking... I have lots of geeky questions. Such as, what does one do for traction in zero gravity? What happens when they're hit by radiation without an atmosphere to protect them. Do superTwuffy sunburn? Not even under unfiltered UV rays, gamma rays, and a host of other radiation? Does the lack of any pressure give them headaches? I mean, usually it would cause someone's eyes to pop out of their heads so at the very least SuperTwuffy should get a headache. ;) And then there's the whole it's absolute zero! I mean, come on, even SuperTwuffy has to feel a chill at -273 degrees. If they can't feel the cold in that, can they not feel the cold in anything? If they can't feel anything, then how good is the sex...?

Geekbrain: it doesn't just turn off for Twuffy sex.

I think Geekbrain should be consulted often and regularly for science continuity issues. Just because this is a fantasy show doesn't mean some level of plausibility isn't helpful!

ITA. Somewhere deep within the land of MYSOULISNOTFUCKINGBURNTUP!, Fred is pointing at the Twuffy space sex and laughing her ass off.

I like to imagine Cordy and Anya being with her, eating popcorn making rude comments. I think I may have a minific coming along those lines . . . Fred scientifically explaining why space fucking won't work, Anya discussing how the sex positions are really uncomfortable, and Cordelia wondering why she can't just higher power herself over to Twilight and give Angel a smack on the head.

*SQUEEEEEE!* I would treasure such a fic. I would love it and stroke it and feed it and rub its fur backwards and call it "George." :D

There should be a ficathon.

Just posted my proposal to do a ficathon. Even though I've never done a ficathon before in my life.
