nice choice of closing song.

>"In this case, madam, it is indeed within acceptable parameters and should be non-injurious to your health.."
does that mean "don't worry, it won't decapitate you"? or does she register as a normal human?
(high tech is always a wild-card in regards to immortality - up to the writer)

though now I'm thinking of Iron Man vs Davy Jones.

[ithildyn]

I'd used the song in Tequila Sunrise, so wanted to touch back on it.

[rodlox]

makes sense.

ps: you're familiar with gargoyles, right?
(every time I watch the Iron Man movie, I think of the New York clan)

[ithildyn]

Yeah, gargoyles are those monster sculpture critters on buildings and churches. I saw some awesome ones in the UK. I haven't been to NY, so haven't seen any there.

Yay! I liked this very much! (It's a bit after my bed time, though, so I'll go for the long comment tomorrow...)

[ithildyn]

Glad you liked it!

[catyuy]

Yippee.
That was perfect.
Now that you finished that part, will you move on to the Methos meets Tony at dinner or continue the QOS fic?

[ithildyn]

Glad you liked it :)

Actually, I'm thinking of getting back to this one, which was where I was before Tony walked in and took over!

[catyuy]

Lets see how long it takes for Tony before he attempts a seductive takeover and makes you work on another fic about him.

[ithildyn]

Heh, that's standard operating procedure for him!

[sharpiesgal]

A nice conclusion.

It still rocks.

[ithildyn]

Thank you :)

I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
