"All those darned Shippercon participants: Frell y'all! Dammit, dammit, dammit, I wanna go to Scapercon." -Al
"That would be Young MC's "Bust A Move," circa 1991. That is, while Al was in HS. "Very old 90’s song"????? *sighs* Just send me to the "Yes, I hit my teenage years in the (late) 80's" home. I'll be quite content watching Jedi, Ferris, Back to the
Future, Roger Rabbit, and Ghostbusters. All of which I remember seeing in the theatre. Shut up. Stop laughing anytime." -Al
Shaye: "Aren't diplomats supposed to be...ya know...DIPLOMATIC?? As in, not crazy and hell-bent on universal domination??"
Kathe: "< crosses off 'diplomat' off possible career options >"
"It's not fair! I wanna go!!! It sounds like soo much fun!! I wanna go! < pout > "But aileen, it's over. It's been over for days! Get over it. Besides, you're going to ScaperCon." says her alter (sane) ego
< whacks Aileen with a trout >
Hey, you can't whack me with a trout! You are me! And I don't care! I still wanna go to ShipperCon! < stomps her foot like her kids did at 2 years old >" -Aileen on ShipperCon
"You Know You're In Alaska When: The neighbor's dog is carried off by a Bald Eagle. (Ha! The lil bugger will never wake me up at 5am again! Yo quiro that, bird bait! < insert manical laughter >)" -Jessi
"In my twisted little Gilina-liking universe, she is the Ulimate Shipper. She stayed on the base for the sake of J/A. So when she gave up her life, it was not only for the sake of John but also for the sake of his relationship with Aeryn. She died for the cause. Now that's a shipper. Gilina has told me that as long as she can't have him, and she died for them, they damn well better be together. If she starts giving me J/G ideas I'll resort to muse-icide." -Shaye
"Why do I always think, "Oh, I can just read today and not reply." Smmmmmaaaaarrrrrrt. "I’m a victim of coicumstance!! Nyuck nyuck nyuck!"" -Al
"Scapercon 2001: A Space Oddity. Like something along that line's not going to be used by cons/websites/pick a sellable object to death next year." -Al
"It's all fun and games till somebody gets accidentally shot with a pulse rifle. Then it gets icky, and you have to come up with alibis." -Al
"Have a shippy night, and remember when you start slashing mice, you've gone TOO far." -Tinka
"I'm so far behind on this list that I don't think I'll ever catch up. Does anyone care? Show of hands? Didn't think so." -Corde
"Okay, first the question pending on everyone's minds: If we evolve like that, do we get to have fun southern accents too??" -Cristin on MTC
"The moral of the story? The more hair you've got, the better you are. Damn, I'm glad I've got long hair. I must be a nice ssensitiveperson. But I'm not to bright. ^_^ Learn something new everyday." -Cristin
"Gonna position myself on the "Yea" side of the 'did they or didn't they post-OoTM' mini-fence (cause the frelling AHR fence...no pun intended...still refuses to completely go away, poor deluded shippers...)" -Shaye
"I firmly declare myself severely deluded on AHR, but I will agree that OoTM did end in copulation! Yes! I agree! Copulation did occur! (My god, am I really using the word copulation???)" -Cristin
Natalie: "JOHN TRAVOLTA! THAT'S who FutureJohn reminds me of!!!! Look at the eyes and the forehead and listen to the way he talks. It's totally John Travolta! Where's the white polyester leisure suit, dammit!!!!"
Cristin: "And thank you very much for *that* image... *suddenly sees Evil-Vulcan
dude in his white suit, on the funky light floor, doing the disco dance.* Oh god, if I have extremely screwed up dreams tonight, I know who I'm going to blame... *glares at Natalie*"
"You know, usually an ep with not one, but *three* Crichtons would make me happy beyond belief and give me quite a few concussions...but one was hairy and one was a jerk with a large visible brain and not much else *cough* So I only thudded like one (the regular Crichton jumping over something with his leather pants < thud >)" -Felicity
"Ooh, do you think Scorpy recorded John's memories much in the same way we do every episode of Farscape? Kicking back with his buddies (who aren't really his buddies, but, ya know, hang with him anyway or else he'll kill them; not everyone uses money to bribe themselves some friends) Uh...where was I? Oh yeah. Dadoo's kicking back with his buddies watching 'John Crichton's Greatest Hits' on video tape while downing a few containers of ras'lak and the UT equivalent of Beer Nuts." -Shaye
Shaye: "Notice how I go straight for the leather and ignore the symbolism?"
Becca: "LOL!"
Shaye: "Yeah, laugh it up, Anti-Hormone."
"Butt shots! Oh yeah baby...there was one real nice one when he was walking toward
the Green Ball of Terror that reminded me of one of those sparkly kitty toys
that has the bell inside...and a better one when he was walking out of Command at the end...mmmmm....move those muscles..." -Shaye
"So, no heart attacks after part 1, okay? Keep repeating the mantra: "It will be okay. I trust the writers of FS. It will be okay. I trust the writers of FS."" -Hutch
"That had to be fun - Ben had to figure out how Aeryn would pretend to be John using John's body, not just how Aeryn would act in John's body. I think I'll shut up now before this line of rambling becomes even worse fodder for sexual innuendo than it
already is." -Sarah
"You had to pry my mind off the leather and the butt shots, didn't you?" -Shaye
"< sigh > It'd really help the philosophical aspects of the show if BB wasn't so darn sexy... But then I wouldn't like it nearly as much. Where else can you really
give your brain a workout while still drooling and satisfying those deeply-ingrained Shipper Tendencies™?" -Shaye
"I had a feeling Chi was gonna save HJ. She seems to have a soft spot for big fuzzy creatures. Hmmm, wonder if that's why she's attracted to D'Argo..." -Sarah
"I really liked Chia and Fur Boy though, and was hoping for some weird perverted one-sided shippiness from Fish Boy but that was a no go. Guess big ol' cranial things don't have the need for nookie. Yet another reason that's a bad evolutionary possibility. We like our nookie thank you." -Kathe
"Who knew we could wax so well on the subject of leather subtext? " -Kathe
"Sounds good to me, though John is wearing the black leather pants and PK red leather vest in the ep. I noticed the pants a lot. Frell me, they really are butt enhancing! " -Kathe
"Zhaan's business card: P'au Zotah Zhaan Professional Anarchist Call 1-800-BADDASS UT Only" -Kathe
"You shoulda seen some of the stuff I was coming up with today. I was at Sarah's site reading her author spotlights and came across her question about being in the room with all the villains and only one bullet...yeah, well, my fried brain comes up with a *parody of her interview question*:
"You're stuck in a room with Scorpius, Cigarette-Smoking Man, The Master (from Buffy, who could seriously be Dadoo's brother), Emperor Palpatine, and only one jar of wrinkle cream. Who do you give it to?"" -Shaye
Kathe: "Should I even bother doing my ShipperCon experience now? =)"
Shaye: "Yeah! You've gotta tell everyone about Mother Crichton! If you don't, I
will, and I'm casting Dixie Carter."
"What's even scarier is that the hotel room survived, as did Iowa. I was expecting it to be destroyed in one huge sonic blast. Especially when we were watching the ep." -Shaye
"You know, I'm leaving this space here. this was to be my spoiler space for M3C. But now it's almost midnight, and it won't go out for most of you until the morning, which is Monday! So frell the spoiler space! Take a stand! Be a rebel! ....Get me off this medication!" -Shaye
"Mmmmmmmmmm.... I actually rewound to get all the butt shots... It's the leather pants, I tell you what." -Shaye
"During The Scene in AHR I had to lean foreward to see if there was any possible way I could bend space-time to see under the sheet that was covering John. I made Sarah rewind it so I could thud over his back too." -Kathe
"Now to Crichton's Mom. We were talking about drama productions and such and I said that the only role I think I could ever play was Mrs. Burnside from Auntie Mame [maybe Vera too]. Since no one had really see the movie I launched into Mother Burnside's famous speech from the movie, culmanating in, "Mother of Jefferson Davis, she's passin' the fox!" Somehow, somehow this all got twisted around to be Crichton's mother. She's just this old cranky woman, wanting her feet rubbed, in the state mental hospital at Chatahoochee, blah blah blah DixieCartercakes. Then while lying on the floor [the margarita having caught up with me] I launched into Crichton's mom as Mrs. Robinson trying to seduce DK. Hell, I *need* to get that on video." -Kathe
"I finally got to the Tallahassee Airport at 11:45 pm. I ignored the page from my mother, trekked out to my car and quickly took of my bra and drove home. I was Woman, Hear me Roar. We don't need no stinking underwire!" -Kathe
"playing fast and loose with catchup
'Course, I'd rather be playing fast and loose with Aeryn, but that's not important right now." -Al
"you mean there really is an island called "Scorpius"?!?!?!? Oh frell, I can just see it, everyone is dressed in black leather with that ugly mask thingy with red or blue cylinder thingys in their heads and they are all mad scientists. The island is shaped like the comfy chair. Yuck. No con there, ever!" -Aileen
Becca: "This Anti-Hormone business is so great."
Shaye: "I used to be there! I used to be you! And now...I'm hormonal, dammit! The
only upside...if you could call it that...is that more embarrassing QL fodder passes your lips when you're hormonal."
Becca: "Went to see X-Men today. Parents dragged me. It was one half exposition (most of which I needed, since I've never read the comics) and another half one big fight, but other than that it could've been much worse. But can we say "sequel coming soon!"?" Natalie: "Well, at least you didn't rule it out completely. Score on for the Mutant Outgrowth. Oh, Mutant! Ha! Get it?"
Sarah: "And count me in for the (Oh, this is going to sound BAD...) - ScaperCon Lei!"
Natalie: "Oh... ScaperCon weekend's already fast sliding into bad taste..."
"Oh, hi btw Becci. And any other newbies I've missed while being cranky and tired. I'm Shaye, I'm a sci-fi geek (well duh), I'm just as insane as everyone else, weird stuff comes out of my mouth (including but not limited to vomit at ShipperCon) and I snort when I laugh." -Shaye
"I got my non-Scaper friend to watch ABL yesterday - the reason? She asked me, in the middle of watching "Ed TV", 'after this can we see that show where the woman with the black hair wears leather?' ROFLMEO! *That* is the reputation of this show among my friends - the show where people wear leather... and Larraq says 'Decca'.... " -Lin
Jodie: "Oh geez thanx for THAT mental image!! Now I'm seeing Crais in a wedding dress and Dadoo in a black leather body suit with a whip and Pilot as the priest!!!! *snicker*"
Lin: "There are probably therapists for images like that."
Becca: "Can someone's muse come over and slap the hell out of mine?"
Sarah: She's on her way. Just remember, you asked for it....
Oh, and look! There's my little S:AaB Muse, running down the street after her! Isn't that cute.
Looks like you'll have *lots* of company, Becca."
"New rule: Can't drink while reading Shaye *or* Kathe's posts. Unless you want to short out your computer, or become friends with the Windex." -kathe
"It's really about the way she works it. I think she could be in a nun's habit and guys would still look at her. Especially if she had one of those flying nun things, imagine the head ticks with that thing!" -Kathe on Chiana's clothing
"Personally I feel and act [I think, at least] sexiest when I'm doing my 'tough chick of the universe' thing. Makes me comfortable, therefore increases the amount of mojo I'm workin'. Aka, the Whacked Ass Pheromones." -Kathe
"I'm hoping one day they turn on each other and I get to sit back and watch the mother of all Muse-Battles..." -Sarah, on her Muses
"Why do I find it slightly ominous that loading page #666 on the boards has crashed my browser twice?" -Sarah
"I came home from work tonight and my mom had Wolverine hair. I know she said he was her favorite, but I think that's taking it too far." -Shaye
"Yes, I want a sex scene, dammit! Know what, I'm not getting any, so I have to live vicariously through fictional characters. So go, Aeryn!!!" -Natalie
"I heard (well - figuratively) a lot of you mumbling about the lack of those damn
ickle muse thingies that seem to be more elusive than the holygrail on top of the crock of gold at the end of the mountain, sprinkled in pixie dust and moving through a tear in the time-space continuum through our reality every eight hundred years. Oh. Got ahead of myself." -Mayterra
Aileen: "Stay, please? Pretty please, with Aeryn clones on top?"
Jeff: "um...I think...I had a bad experience too...yeah that's the ticket..I
definitely need an Aeryn clone < cetm >"
"Jeff

"I think MediaPlay now owns my soul. Eeek." -Becca
Kathe: "And I've already mentally packed for it. Frell."
Shaye: "Tell me you don't have a cowboy hat. Please?"
Becca: "If anyone comes here bringing a cowboy hat, cowboy boots, or anything made out of an animal skin, they get shot on site. Either that or locked into one of the country karaoke bars downtown, which is probably worse. < G >"
"Not saying that the Anti-Hormone won't stay the Anti-Hormone, but damn, it's funny to think back to the days when I was the only girl on the Brain Bowl team and was nicknamed Mary Magdalene. In fact, I miss the days of being ignored by guys. I
didn't have to ask, "Are they on straight?" nearly as much." -Kathe
"If you're in an area with a Good Guys electronics store (their current motto is "It doesn't get any gooder... yeeech) check out their lastest circular. In the Direct TV ad one of the things they're promoting is that you can get the Sci-Fi channel, and one of the shows they're plugging (and have a very tiny cast picture of- obviously early first season- because of Aeryn's hair and the lack of Pip) is, um,
oh, what was it's name? Which made me do one of those Curly from the Three Stooges kind of starts- you know, he's saying what he'll do if he ever gets his hands on
Moe, then he turns around and there's Moe, and he jumps." -Al
"I went to the "Elvis is Alive" Museum in Missouri, somewhere between Springfield and St. Loo. Very wacky. Be a good daytrip if you got bored at Scapercon. And you definitely won't miss it if you’re driving along I-70. (among it's features is a pink '59 Caddy "similar to the kind Elvis drove." That's like me having a tuxedo and showing it off because it’s "similar to the kind they wear in James Bond
movies.")" -Al
"And no, I have no idea what the Five Seasons are.
Fertilize, Mow, Rake, Shovel, and Flood, maybe..." -Sarah
"Don't worry about us not wanting you here. For Pete's sake, you thud for Aeryn, and you're proud of it. That's all you need. So stand with me proudly as an
Aerynthudder! Let us observe a picture of her as proud Aerynthudders! *Crash!* Okay, maybe that wasn't such a good idea." -Al

"NOOOOOO!!!! NOT GOODBYE! I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!
< kicks John and Aeryn >
I am dragging them both out of the TV, I'm locking them in the linen closet and they aren't frelling going *anywhere* until they work this whole damn situation out!!!!!!!" -Natalie
Lin: " Okay, I have to ask. If commerical breaks mean sex, end credits mean
orgy... what the *hezmana* does a between >season hiatus mean?!?!"
Shan: "Oh my... you know, we just keep on digging down that sewage hole we're stuck
in..."
"Never fails. Farscape is the only show I know that will put me through a sequence of "awwwww," putting my head under the covers because of prudishness, retching violently, absolutely heartstopping terror, morbid fascination, and finally leave me in tears. Gotta get good seatbelts for this emotional rollercoaster..." -Becca
"Well now Shaye... I have to say you are somewhat off the hook... you said there'd be a J/A sex scene, but I'll give you half credit since the other two were going at it like wild rabbits... You get a pebble thrown at you. < g >" -Shan
"Note to self: Do *not* leave windows open while watching Farscape. It scares the neighbors." -Sarah
"Awww, it's a lover's spat. (You have no idea how hard that scribble was to decipher. I couldn't figure out why I had written 'door' - Persian symbol for the number two - and 'at'...)" -Sarah

(you know what, I LOVE new swear words! this is my new favorite word. and I can use it around my little sisters and no one will care if they pick it up! Shaye, can you just see Merlyn walking around going "Frell! Frell!" rofl...)" -Felicity
""Greetings. You have 970-thousand new digests, all of them about LaTP, part one. Please snip and combine and see if the reply message is less than 874 pages."

I can tell you right now this torturing device you've got now ain't gonna work a lick, not for you, m-mm that's for right sure. I'll tell you what I’m gonna do. You seem like such nice folks, I'm gonna give you a special. Now take a look right here in the catalogue, page 157, right there. That's an Aurora Chair, folks. Best torture chair in the Uncharted Territories. That'll handle all your torturing for years and years to come. Look at that- that's real Corinthian leather there, folks- what's that, son? That's right, that's the comfy chair. That's a bright kid you got there, mister."" -Al
"Arrgh, every song on the radio right now is rolling around in the Farscape Playground in my brain. Least Staanz is out cold clutching my hose beast bag in my
closet...not like I write fic in the first place ;). My Muse just goes to get others drunk on the tequila." -Kathe
Natalie: "Kathe, I'm starting to channel you, I think. Which may account for the wackiness at work. Or maybe that's the massive amounts of chemicals I'm exposed to."
Kathe: "Oh thanks! So that explains my behaviour, it wasn't that fall out of my
sister's window when I was year old, it was some mysterious chemicals that were
released when I had to sit next to that kid eating paste in kindergarten. Frelling beautiful. *g*"
"J & K get hitched [I would really love that if "K" equaled Kathe. What? Can't I be happy in my delusions? Fine, no John. I'm snagging DK, or Larraq's twin brother.]" -Kathe

"Woo-hoo! I've done it! I finally bought myself a handheld minicassette recorder!
I will now carry it with me wherever I go on the off chance that I get spun off into some uncharted region of Washington state, and have to survive on pinecones and the companionship of strange people who've never seen human civilization. Maybe Mr. Ed, an evolved tree frog, and an Indian prince from a lost Native American civilization. Oh, and some sort of really smart fungus. And I can then record homesick messages to my mother, whenever something goes wrong between me and the prince, because it's a magic tape recorder and the batteries will never run out." -Shaye

Lin: "OFLMEO!! Oh Monj... I read that as "Personal indulgences can fracture a small *cow*...""
Natalie: "Maybe a dumb question- please tell me the cow's dead before the fracture?"
Shaye: "Well, it could just be a small *part* of the cow...like the leg, or a rib.
So either the cow gets to walk around without being milked for a few days, or he gets a little cow-cast and has to use a cow-wheelchair until itheals...

"Maybe your local TV-Guide is a very rabid shipper, or at the very least, is highly
hormonal. I was going to say 'porn shipper' but then thought better of it. Can't you see someone saying, "Awww, look, isn't that sweet?" while bending their head to odd angles like one does while watching porn." -Kathe
"Okay, this is bad. I have been spazzing all day, because it's friday, and Farscape is coming on. At 9 am... "oooo, farscape's on today... *small spazz*" At 1 pm, after caffine had majorly kicked in.... "Yeah!! Farscape's on today!! *Spaz*" And now, at 5:30 pm, I'm sitting here, typing, and I'm going, "Farscape! Farscape!

"The Scarran dude looks like he got his face stuck in the grille of a Mack truck and never quite recovered. Yowzah." -Beth
"My conclusion: don't drop acid while watching Empire Strikes Back. Apparently, you wind up with some freaking funky storyline derivatives. Not to say that I didn't agonizingly enjoy every moment of the episode (except John's space acrobatics....I don't think so, Tim), I just want it on record that if John makes no Han Solo reference in the finale, this chickadee is going to have a melt-down. Of course, that might not be preventable at this point." -Beth
"Okay, I should be studying. Studying. Yeah, that's what I'm doing. In five minutes. Sure. Okay. I'll study in five minutes. Or so. < sigh > " -Hutch
"That is SO cool that Lucy posted that...thing...you know, on how you wouldn’t necessarily die. See, I just figured that the pressure difference is so painful to me just when I go into a frelling airplane, that it’d just be too much and your head would explode. Then I thought, wait! Not good! He’s got all sorts of bodily fluids! He’s 97% water! NO! Something bad’s gonna happen. My reaction was not calm. I was looking at my mom shouting, “He’s gonna implode! Why is he not imploding! How can he NOT implode??” Anyway. Didn’t realize this was at all possible, now I do, so cool. That makes two things I’ve seen recently that I don’t have to freak out about. (LatP: ID, IT and Titan: AE. Yes, I know it was a cartoon. But I wanted my cartoon to be scientifically accurate, dammit!)" -Shaye
"Soo...anyone think I’m crazy? Well, more crazy. The fact that I’m insane

"< shakes head > It starts with the hair, Becca. It all starts with the hair. Then it's, 'that person is not ugly.' Or, 'I can see there is something aesthetically pleasing about that person.' You know, my hormones didn't really kick in until I turned 20. Now I'm watching Ready, Set, Cook and going, "Ooh, he's cute.

Aileen: "Maybe they should just learn to knock or develop some sort of code to warn each other. Like a sign on the door or something."
Shaye: "I say go with the classic: a necktie. ;} What? They don't have neckties

"Assuming of course that the writers never get *really* evil and bring John's frolic in the water back to haunt him, I'm gonna say nope, John's self control, his inner Jiminy Cricket, kicked back in, and he stopped himself before anything more than the kisses we saw happened. Hey, if people can still believe J&A *DIDN'T* in AHR, why can't we turn denial to our advantage too?" -John
":::Suddenly hears a strange staticy buzzing noise::: Wait, just a moment...I'll be right back, everyone... :::Steps away from the computer:::
:::Returns several minutes later with a bemused grin::: Now *that* was
interesting. Don't ask me how (cause then I would have to kill ya) but I just received a transmission from my alter ego the Uncharted Territories. Yup, John Crichton himself. He said that although the recordings we've been receiving of the adventures of Moya and her crew have been, up til now, extremely accurate, part of that last transmission was intercepted by the Peacekeepers. Evidentally they've resorted to politician tactics, and began inserting fabricated footage in an attempt to tarnish John's reputation. The skinny dimping with Jenavia, the kisses, never even happened! Thankfully, Aeryn knows him better than that (so its only the PK spin-doctor who needs to be looking for a very good hiding place just now), and he trusts that we shippers do as well. And of course we do, right guys?" -John

Felicity: " Plus, how do you make a marriage legal when John's from another part of the galaxy? It's not like they have to do their taxes together...I think John could still marry Aeryn with a clear conscience."
Shaye: "Good point. "John, do you know where I put UT form 1140-A?""
"I seriously wants Mama Crichton fic now. Or at least something where Aeryn kinda reiterates her story about her mom, and then John feels compelled to tell Aeryn about how his mom would get snookered each time his dad left to go on a space flight, and he'd wake up at 3 AM to the sound of her shouting the words to "I Feel Pretty" up and down the hall." -Shaye
"While I'm at it, I'll offer further proof that I'm completely out of my tree.

"Good lord! You should warn a person if you're going to drop a mental bomb like that. Specially when she's at work trying to look busy and sip on a soda. Now my keyboard is sticky and my boss is giving me the what-issues-is-she-dealing-with-today look. Plus, I can't get the image of Scorpy in his Hawaiian shirt driving a convertible down Ocean Drive sipping a Margarita blasting the Beasties in the background. That will teach me to frelling play with you guys during work hours!" -Denise
"Hello, this is my first official attempt to STOP lurking. I've gone a guaranteed 12-step program. The first step is to admit you have a problem.
Yes, I, Tinka Rohlman, am a lurker. I admit it freely and without denial.
::thinks about running and hiding in the shadows::" -Tinka
"You know, as soon as we noticed that Bongo had been left behind, I busted out with "Can't Corde hang on to her monkey for more than five seconds?" and Natalie was promptly seen scribbling away in her notebook. Damn. I should've thought, "Hey, Stop
that blonde girl! She stole my Mardi Gras Beads!" Now if only Corde and Tinka could sorta trade kelpto and butterfinger powers everything would be diamond." -Kathe
Cristin: "I think we scared the bartenders. ^_^"
Kathe: "Which is really funny 'cuz after that they gave me *stronger* margaritas."
"Sarah can identify Morgan Weisser's butt flying out of a van. I can identify Wayne's leather clad legs. We each have our talents. *g* And he's damn sexy. Uh
oh, Uber Hormone is rearing her coifed head." -Kathe
"But I've got the picture [one of my faves in fact] of Bongo, face down on the table drunk off his little simian ass with four *visible* leis around him. I think that qualifies :)" -Kathe
"Dadoo is not bad, he just needs a nice vacation spot with climate control...." -Shan
"Hint: don't fall victim to one of those mail-order muse scams....I did and now every time she puts and idea in my head...she sadistically yanks in back again before I can do any thing with it...dang it dang it dang it." -Court
"Oh, lord, I need my own place. And probably some Ritalin at this point." -Shaye
"And JOHN! < Sarah hugs John to death > So glad you're here!!!! You're a vital link in my plot to take over the world, one Phil Collins song at a time! Wahahahahaha!" -Sarah
Laura: "The "shippiest" moment of the whole con...? When the ENTIRE bar erupted into a chant of "Shipper Shipper Shipper" following the kiss."
Sarah: "That was the *best*. Heather says we looked like a little sorority party.
But she said it with love."
"I recently talked with the girl who is going to be my roomie this year. Her responce to my asking about sci fi was "that's, like, space and stuff, right?"....her boyfriend had to show her how to use e-mail.....oh, good god, one of us is going to end the year traumatized....
"Why is your roommate lying in the middle of the floor spazzing and screaming about a scorpion?"
"Oh, don't mind her....she does that every Friday. Just walk around."" -Jessi
"And bugs. Coming out of Rygel's face. *That* made me go eww. I have to say it again now. Eww." -Cristin
"Back on a lighter note, lots of great Crichtonisms in this one. Loved 'Riddle me this'. I suddenly saw John as Jim Carrey in that damn green outfit, and couldn't
stop laughing." -Cristin
"Kemper was right on not making this a technical show.
"Ka-tow. Ka-tow. Ka-tow. Little bolts of light. Ouch."" -Rachel
"Well, now we sorta know where Crichton got his tendency to go a little loopy. It's from his mama!" -Kathe
"Hutch
who, after an entire summer of studying for qualifying exams, may start having 'flashes' of Scopry herself."
"I'm feeling quite twinny today. ITA to Shaye too. XANDER needs to be on this show damnit! He's not doing anything constructive on Buffy now is he? Hmmm? So bring
him on over for an ep or two, make him Chia's long lost cousin that *isn't* frostbitten and let the games begin!" -Kathe
"How cool is it that my spellcheck recognizes "frelling"?" -Kathe
"When we weren't seeing the Vork and the... thing it turned into together, I'm thinking "It's like Michael and LaToya! You don't see them together, they must be

"Ooooohhhh! Pip can say "Farscape Continues" any time! That's the first time I thudded for Pip." -Al
Sarah: "We're not obsessed. We're just... extremely focused. (Isn't that how it goes???)"
Shaye: "Dude, I have no focus. I'm obsessed, dammit."
"LOL...I'd settle for getting him on Angel, acutally, seeing as how it's one big snarkfest whenever those two are in the room together. What I WANT to see is Xander and John get into a pop-culture-referencing frenzy while the rest of Moya's crew explodes out of frustration. (Not literally, because ICK and < sniff >, but you know what I mean.)" -Shaye on Xander
"Random thought: How much do you suppose the SciFi Tramp spends on Armor-All in an average week? She looks like a freaking slip 'n slide." -Bethmy mom's today and noticed in her kitchen she had *three* huge boxes of "Salted Crackers" at which point I flung one hand over my mouth to keep from screaming, pointed at the boxes with the other hand while jumping up and down. Sufficed to say, she is now convinced that I am, in the words of Rygel/Aeryn in CDM, "mentally damaged." I tried to explain, but that ofcourse did nothing to help my case so I just started calling her Rygel for the rest of the day. < sigh >" -Denise
"Generally, homicide is not a good way to continue a relationship." -Meowzer
Kathe: "Is that Dadoo's ball? Sure as hell looks like it. But how did John get it? UT Toys R Us? Was he playing in Dadoo's toy chest again? Okay, going to soak my
brain in bleach now."
"The Fashion Gods on the Royal Planet need to explore different fabric colors and textures besides white and that funky red stuff. Was that fabric left over from Jeremiah Creighton?" -Cynthia
"May you live your life full of love, happiness, and insanity. I'd have it no other way." -Tinka
"Get fish! They're cheap, and no one's allergic to them. :) I've had fish named after Farscape characters before. But my fish tend to die often, so I have to come up with interesting names a lot. Right now they're named Franjean and Rool. A brownie to anyone who gets that reference.
Oh, but trout don't make good pets. Try a goldfish. Or a guppie." -Eloy
"On the topic of naming animals after farscape characters, I've started to debate that. I have this cute little guinea pig and as of right now her new name is Chiana. after all, this little critter is nosy, kinda annoying, and the horniest guinea pig i've ever known. i'll see if that sticks." -Natalia
"And I still have my last one. It's going in the ShipperCon Memory Box...along with that frelling bottle of French's Mustard that Corde and Tinka presented to me in the lobby of the hotel." -Kathe on the MarkMints
"D'Argo's got a nice butt." -Natalie
Denise: "I am sooo worried about our boy, and who gets billed for the therapy (his
as well as ours)?"
Natalie: David Kemper."
"I swear, I almost never cried until a year ago. Then I started watching Farscape. Now I'm going on the same emotional roller coaster Aeryn is. Only my significant other is a TV show. Damn, I need to find myself a man..." -Natalie
""See, there's this sci-fi show on tv that I really really love, and they've got these little mechanical things that run around the ship helping the pilot - well that's actually his name, Pilot - and they're really cute and fun and we all want one so I figured hey, these would... no, no, don't send me foam padding for my walls instead - our walls at the Institute are already padded. No, I don't really *live* at the institute, I just spend a lot of time there on-line, 'cause you see there's this bunch of us who wanna see these two characters... wait, who are you calling? No, I don't need a jacket! I already have one of those, too! We even have people at the Institute who *make* them with their Wands of - Aaaaaaaah!!!"" -Sarah
"(Okay, so if you really wanna know, this all came out of a conversation I was having with Aeryn in my head. Don't laugh! I know you do it!)" -Shaye
"(And sorry, I think someone was offering a bulk rate on exclamation points recently...)" -John
"OH, and the quick-wittedness? It's pretty much just thinly-veiled insanity.. Once you get your own padded cell, you'll feel much more at home. ;}" -Shaye
"No, no. < sigh > Hitler Burger is its own restaurant, right across the street from Stalin Burger. When the employees of Hitler Burger invade Stalin Burger trying to eliminate the competition, a sudden blizzard springs up and the HB employees are trapped. They've soon burnt all the furniture for firewood, and start dying of hypothermia and starvation as the Stalin Burger employees stand in the back munching pickles and warming their hands over the fryers.

"kay, it sounds quite bad to say that Sloe Comfortable Screw is my drink < g > But I don't mind - now I want to taste one myself." -Lin
"pffffff! OMM, I seriously almost spit my tea all over my laptop, which would officially be a Bad Thing. Then I spent five minutes laughing into my napkin trying not to inhale my tea and send it shooting out my nose. (Yes, Shippers, not only do I snort, I have a propensity for sending liquids out my nostrils. Told ya there was something wrong with my nasal cavity.)" -Shaye
"just plain white, (that way if I stand really still, you can't see me against this padded wall)" -Jeff, on his straightjacket color
Toni: "OK, I mostly just lurk around here -- but, um, when I read that last line, I had horrible visions of a dead *rodent* painted yellow with little antennae stuck on his head. But after a moment's thought, it became clear what you meant. I *hope* that's what you meant, or you people are all nuttier than I thought!"
Denise: "Well, it's not just you! First thing I had were very protective thoughts of my hamster (King Louis XVI), and how best to keep this shipper list away from him. Then I pictured him died yellow with little antennas and started thinking about non-toxic dies and glues."
"I wonder if Peacekeepers have any comparable terminology. Okay boys and girls, what's the Peacekeeper version of FUBAR? (And no points for "irreversibly contaminated".)" -Meowzer
Lin: "You're a Mommy now? Congrats Mom < g >"
Sarah: "< Sarah has a slight heart attack as she reads that, then realizes what Lin is referring to >
I thought we were going to have another "Koren's pregnant???" thread going... ;)"
"You know, all you guys have this strange reaction to mustard now. While the one who made the comment has absolutely no problem. Heh, so there is an upside to having a wicked tongue; I get wallpapers made out of me. Sweet." -Kathe
"One comment, and I think it sums it up the best. FrooniumRicky writes Cordefic, too. who knew?" -Jen
"I hearby declare an utter *need* for a T-shirt of Scorpy playing the drums. He is my new mascot. I am in Scorpy heaven." -Cristin
"Mom? Is that Mommy? Damn, where's her margarita?? Where's the straitjacket?" -Cristin
"It comes to $29.40 ?? Oh, good, if I commit attempted murder will it cost me $30??
*runs off* I'm going to go attempt some murders now, okay?" -Cristin
"John is listening to Scorpy? Getting advice from my baby?? Even *I* wouldn't take advice from Scorpy on anything but how to take care of my leather whips. And he's my baby!" -Cristin
"Okay, I DID *NOT* NEED TO SEE RYGEL DOING BONDAGE!!!!! < raids cleaning cabinet, decides that regular Lysol isn't strong enough, and heads out to get industrial strength >" -Becca

"Wow, a flaming Scarran! (To which Nick replies. "Well, we had a flaming Luxan before." Groan and smack Nick.)" -Natalie
"STARK! They showed STARK!!!! WOO HOO! And the return of Stark means IT'S MONJO WRITTEN!!!!!!!!!!!! HAIL MONJO!!!!!
Yes, they were having a sale on exclamation marks at Target" -Natalie
"Okay, now Zhaan is an alien shrink. With a green card no less. Of course. I mean, we wouldn't want a blue shrink *without* a green card, now would we?" -Rachel
""Twins. Pity your mother." Please don't bring out the whole 'issuses with father' thing. I do not need to see Scorpy curled up on Zhaan's couch sobbing out his problems." -Rachel
"Oh Monj, not another Jessica. Take a number, Chi." -Rachel
"Frell!! You can't forget the chip. You have to get it out of your head. Frell. Cristin, I'm sorry but I'm going to have to kill Scorpy." -Rachel
"Things I thought I'd never see on Farscape yet featured in this episode:
Rygel smokes a cigar. Aeryn makes out with D'Argo. Aeryn makes out with Chiana (or might as well have, anyway). Scorpy grooves on the drums. The gang speeds down the highway in a red convertible. D'Argo um...swings both ways. D'Argo wearing WHITE SHOES. Aeryn in a nurse's uniform...bet she'd loooooove that. RYGEL in Scorpy's outfit < shudder >. Aeryn, D'Argo and Chia DISCO DANCE? Aeryn says "Boogie oogie woogie." Aeryn in curlers? Oh, frell, Crais is wearing red high heels. OH, and carrying a lapdog. Yep, this is one crazy ep." -Shaye
"Note to John for future reference: do NOT, I repeat do NOT, taunt your enemies with ways to defeat them when they reside in your brain. Noooot a good idea, with all those neural clusters just waiting to be frelled with." -Shaye
"John, honey, on the off-chance that that's *really* your dad, don't kill him." -Theresa
"Hello, Dr. Skanky Aeryn Whoever you are. If it's not too much trouble, could you peel yourself off D'Argo and check on your choking, seizing, previously psychotic patient?" -Theresa
"Does anyone have any mental disinfectant? 'Cause I need some *badly* after seeing Rygel is his S&M outfit." -Theresa
"Okay, so now about the whole chip thing...pretty ingenious on Scorpy's part. If having a chip makes you see Scorpy all the time, I'm betting Cristin wants one. " -Theresa
"Harvey. Dadoo's a giant bunny rabbit. Oh god, bad mental image: Dadoo, Easter Bunny costume prancing around with a basket full of eggs." -Kathe
Sarah: ""Surreal" does not even *begin* to describe this."
Hutch: "Nor does 'whacked out', 'insane', 'psychotic', or 'frelled'."
"Rygel gets some more action! That little slug gets kissed so much... I'm surprised he hasn't turned into a prince yet." -Hutch
"Oh my God! They killed Crichton! Those bastards!" -Hutch
"If you haven't seen a picture of Dave Elsey, TOO BAD. You're way past getting dibs! Bwahaha!" -Natalie
"I'm moving to Utah, I'm taking Paul and Dave Elsey with me, and I'm getting in on this polygamy thing." -Natalie
Natalie: ""Bypass gutter straight to cess pool."
What if we were already in the cess pool?"
Kathe: "Satan's hot tub?"
Natalie: "Is Satan cute?"
Shaye: "Depends on what movie you're watching."
"Y'know, I had to violate Cardinal Rule #4 of College Towns yesterday and go to the grocery store the weekend before classes start. Funny, the Ramen display had been moved front and center... < snerk >" -Sarah
Eloy: "I'm wondering what the others were doing while John was in this mind-probing thing. Fic, anyone?"
Sarah: "Hopefully looking for him! < calmly slams door in Muse's face > "Too slow,
sweetie. Take your stick and go.""
"*choke* ROTFL We need to get Murray to a Con. Can you imagine the damage we could do to the poor man's psyche??? I can just see a long line of us, reminiscent of the Aeryn Squad, all saluting with "Commader Sexy Sideburns! Reporting for duty, SIR!" and swooning into a pile. They'd call the cops." -Sarah
Kathe: "This is sad, Natalie's corrupted me so I'm looking for butt shots when John attacks Jack while wearing the gown."
Sarah: "You mean we weren't supposed to be??"
"Oh, good. We need more stuffed animals around here. They're one of the few Institute possessions that aren't a choking hazard." -Shaye
"Okay, totally got an image of Pilot attacking Bongo the monkey for a moment there." -Lin, talking about Pilot on the bongos
"As if driving Corde to a far away place and leaving her there wasn't traumatic enough, we had to go and watch this ep." -Tinka
"I LITERALLY fell of the bed at EVERY commercial break. So not only were people in the hotel bombarded with screaming, shrieking, uncontrollable laughter, and other unreasonably loud verbal reactions, they got the ACTUAL < thud >s." -Tinka
"Just to let everyone know where the damn monkey and his Master are... did I just call Corde Bongo's master? Ha!" -Tinka
"We were going to try to get to the aquarium, too, but I didn't think I could trust myself to be anywhere near a trout and not be carted out by security." -Natalie
"Was I the only person who *didn't* notice this? *sigh* Guess I better watch AHR a few more times. Such sacrifice." -Cristin
"Sorry. If Gilina doesn't get any, she refuses to act as even a semi-SmutMuse. In fact, I doubt Gilina EVER got any. *eg* Actually, I think I actually am going to write the pre-LatP fic. And for some reason, she's been babbling about this fairly naughty idea that's actually post-HotR, if you can believe it. < shakes head > The tech is *whacked*. Dead, and WHACKED." -Shaye
"k I know that most of you probably already consider me wacked. Well, here is another one for ya! While I am full blown shipper, I am also just as much a Crais fan, I am also the Fearless leader of the MMOC. So, when I saw the poll post on the best way to kill crais, of course I flinched. So please excuse me if I don't share your enthusiasm as to how to kill Crais best:) I told ya I was wacked, I need my own SPECIAL padded cell complete with a variety of meds, pics of John and Aeryn on
one side and pics of Crais on the other:)" -Miranda
Tinka: "Ok, general question here, was I the only one who didn't attend the meeting where they handed out UNBELIEVABLE talent?"
Shaye: "Maybe you were in line a second time for that snottiness."
""So, Mr. Bartlett, I was just wondering if maybe you could sign my bottle of Prozac..."" -Shaye
"WGFA: All I can say is that my mouth was hanging open for the entire ep and I was in shock for a half hour afterwards. Then the Manningkin and SACCer in me started fighting about whether or not it was good ep then the IDGET squad member kept < thud >ing all over the frelling place getting in their way and occasionally saying something about pummelling Froon with the trout and getting punched out by the Manningkin. I had to wait 2 frelling days before I could watch the ep again. Surreal don't even begin to describe it!" -Aileen
"Larraq is not dead. Kathe just proved it!" -Aileen on Kathe's fic
"Hey Shan and Dani, I am with ya on the Hurricane thing. I live on the coast of SC. I don't know if it will hit here or not but all I have to say is, if it frelling screws up my Friday night, then I am gonna have some words with God." -Miranda
"I'm not gonna thud, I'm not gonna thud, I'm not gonna thud.... < THUD >" -Lin
"We're being invaded be newbies recently < g > Not that I'm complaining, I like newbies... I couldn't eat a whole one though." -Lin
"I ate a large lunch today, yet my stomach insists on imitating Kathe's symphonic stomach rumbling. It's quite odd." -Shaye
Leo: "Okay, one last question: What's the biscuit version? Does it involve anything guttery? Tell me? I'll give you cookies..."
Shaye: "Not guttery, though after ScaperCon that apparently may change."
"I didn't say I don't enjoy seeing Crais onscreen. However, judging from my reaction to THM, I'd prolly laugh real hard if he died." -Shaye
"It could hit me too, if it decides to go Gulf side. Looks like I'll have to wear my fisherman sandals if it does. The things have survived six years and three hurricanes. They need to be in the Smithsonian [along with Ricky Martin's shiny pants]." -Kathe
"Although to be completely honest, I don't think I could be trusted in the same room with Paul Leyden. Trust me, no one under 17 should be allowed at that gathering..." -Natalie
Tinka: "OK, be honest with me, raise your hand if you tried to do the "tongue thing" after the ep???"
Natalie: "< raises hand > I'm not shy. I sat in front of the mirror and tried it till my tongue was sore. Still can't do it. But the next guy I kiss won't be disappointed..."
"Shaye, after getting my minor in vagueness, I majored in "Little Snot" 101. I thought it was just the obvious follow up." -Tinka
Kathe: "Hurricane Debbie: First time I heard about the 'cane I read it as Dabee and wondered if she was going to bring the IDGET with her :)."
Aileen: "Fish have been known to be sucked up into hurricanes and rain down on
people...."
"If you watch her closely, all she is doing is leaving her mouth open and licking the inside of her bottom lip with the tip of her tongue. just doing that creates the whole undulating effect. But it's got to be just the tip of your tongue going up and down the inside of your bottom lip, not too far up or down either. Practice in a mirror." -Aileen instructing us on how to do Claudia's tongue thing
"I'm still sitting here at the computer making my tongue undulate. Considering my jaw's currently unhinged (just like my mind), this is not a smart thing to do." -Natalie
"I love that this is what I'm getting a rep for... the girl obsessed with Sloe Comfortable Screws" -Lin
"Anyway, that's my short little note to y'all! (note to self: Must move out of the south, my speech is getting weird ;))" -Amber
"There's this really old grave there that's a tourist attraction, It has the inscription: ...she was a mother without knowing and a wife without letting her husband know except in her acts of kindness towards him and Jodie's had too much sugar today and so her mind's going bad places with that acts of kindness thing...*lol*" -Jodie
Lin: "Of course my cousin is special... he looks a bit like David Duchovny. Pity he's my cousin < g >"
Jodie: "Hey he's not MY cousin!!! Can I meet/maul him?!?!? *G*"
"Now, if he pulled the same stunt *after* the sweet!kiss, I'd chain John down for Aeryn while she beat him with a whip." -Jennifer
Rachel: "Ptbp. Admit it, you need me."
Becca: "No, I don't. I don't need you. Fic monsters are totally unnecessary but for their entertainment value."
"i'm off to collapse into bed....as soon as i move enough stuff off it to fit on it!" -Jessi
Kathe: "Larraq becomes the Larraq we know, love and want to deck out in frosting."
Natalie: "Whipped cream, dammit. Frosting's too sweet."
Kathe: "But with frosting, it's thicker which means more, ahem, licks to clean it off. You can have whipped cream, I can have frosting and we'll give Sarah or somebody a cherry. One way or another we're gonna make the man one giant sticky mess. Oh hell, < thud >."
"But thanks for the instructions. I can *almost* do it. But my mouth's kinda little so there's not enough room to do that without getting a little swirl in there. Which might actually work better. Now I need to find a kissable date. I need to practice this." -Natalie
Aileen: "hey, there's enough of him to cover him in a little bit of everything we want. I vote for a portion in chocolate frosting. < THUD >"
Natalie: "Yeah, try to get him away from me. < dangles handcuffs > Oh, Larraq..."
"< Wriggles into her asbestos underwear > " -Samantha
"Oh. Oh, man, now I have the most...=interesting= mental image. Which, in addition to the above, involves leather pants and handcuffs...
< shaking self > Whoa. BABY.
I don't suppose anybody's written a Larraq-in-chains fic...?" -Dori
"First an announcement, I actually overheard my wife singing "tomorrow's farscape day" softly to herself last night. She's hooked < eg >" -Jeff
"She's < thud >worthy, well without the rouge from hell anyway. Just because we like her doesn't make her less Tralky < g >" -Jeff on Jenavia
"Just to let you know someone at dinner picked up the mustard and said "That's orr-gaaaaaaaasmic" I couldn't help but think of you." -Tinka
"I'm deleting everything in my "Farscape-shippers" box from before WGFA to today. I decided I was never going to catch up, and seeing all the unread mail just made me feel guilty. I don't need guilt. I'm a college student. I have no fear, guilt, dignity, or shame in asking for money. It's a wonderful thing." -Corde
"You Know You Are Deranged When...
...you start picturing your archeology prof in Kathe's muse Staanz's fairy princess costume, complete with wand, and wondering when he'll bonk you on the head with it. (My roommate had NO idea what to do when I started snickering and drawing stick people with tutus and wands in my notebook. I'm so misunderstood.)" -Corde
"So I had to cut my trip to a music store a little short today in order to keep from totally embarrassing myself. Why? Because when I walked in, they were playing "Bed of Lies." I figured bursting into tears in the middle of 'CD Singles' would freak out a few too many people, so I got out of there as quickly as I could... Thanks, Shaye. ;)" -Sarah
"Ooh...that case...I'll have the cherry. Yes, I know. So much double entendre in that it's sick. I don't care, dammit!" -Shaye
"Anyway...I'm done for...a tile place around my house is Oregon Tile and Marble... abbreviate, naturally...OTM. Dammit! EVERY TIME I look at it, it becomes OOTM. &#%&@$**^%@!" -Shaye
"Shaye, come on! It's fweakin SHAYE, how can that not be cool? It's part of the TinkaLaw 10 or more Commandments. Commandment 1: Shaye is the party.
Commandment 1a: Shaye has a drad name." -Tinka
"And the babblings. They make no sense, are at times 'sexually explicit materials,' and are very, very... random." -Cristin
"- Naked Zhaan.
- Stark is watching naked Zhaan.
- Bad Stark. *g*
- Stark and Zhaan are going to join?
- Well sure, the man just has to be in charge
- Okay, this is some weird sexual innuendos....
- It's almost... orgasmic. *g*
- Wow, that one really rocked the boat. Literally." -Cristin
"I WANT MY TEDDY BEAR!!" -Cristin
"Why do these people have to be so good that they make me cry, dammit?" -Becca
"Of course, John and Aeryn's heads in the same frame, in the tag, after a very shippy episode, and NOT KISSING was just cruel, Monj. Withholding one cookie from the bag coming his way for this ep." -Becca
"Favorite 'Scape Moment of the Week: When Aeryn called John "beautiful." Turned me into a puddle of girly mush." -Jennifer
"Nick keeps talking about Stark's "blissful right eye." Don't ask me how he came up with that. But that leads me to figure out why Zhaan could seriously be digging on Stark. He's got a face even a Delvian could love." -Natalie
"Notes time!: Don't ask me, these were just thoughts that started to pop out of my head when I wasn't reaching for the tissue box." -Natalia
"Stark! Hell yes! Does anyone else notice the "sparks" flying, here? He must be a vegitarian." -Natalia
"Hi, I'm Kristen, make my straight-jacket *tight* - I'm gonna start doing some serious damage to myself if they don't start resolving the sexual tension in this series soon!" -Kristen
"And here's John down on the planet chasing down Aeryn. OK, Now, I need a brand new black PK Jacket too. *And a chance to interview the costume designers for Farscape,* my mind thoughfully provides. Yep, Adding that to my list of demands now, inner self. Just let me get my pencil..." -Kristen
"And THEN. < sob > NO! She's not DEAD! That's only in FIC, dammit!" -Shaye
"Raise your hand if you cried.
< Sarah watches dozens of hands start to wave >
Now raise your hand if you were reduced to a sobbing, shrieking mass of tears, incapable of uttering anything even remotely coherent for an entire commercial break.
< Sarah's hand shoots into the air, filled with soggy Kleenex >" -Sarah
"ShinyStark! I love Stark! I want one!" -Sarah
"And he's a Cranky Old Southern Man! I can just see him sitting on his porch at home, yelling at the kids to get the hell off his lawn. < snicker > (Becca! ROTFL!!!) I thought of you, Kathe, and wondered if Johnny was perhaps modeling himself after his Cranky Southern Institutionalized Mom." -Sarah
"OHMIGOD, she died on the way. The second those doors opened, that's what I yelled. Scared the dog. Then it immediately became, "It's not real it's not real it's not real they'll fix it they'll fix it they'll fix it - WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!"" Sarah
""It's time to tell D'Argo why I'm here." At that point I started screaming "JOTHEE!!! He knows where Jothee is! Aaaaaaah! Stark!!! Jothee!!! Aaah!!!" Those were happy-screams, but I scared the dog again. During that commercial break, I decided I was probably going to need a Valium after this ep." -Sarah
"Okay, after calming down and snuggling with David, the Stripping Teddy Bear (don't ask) all night, I think I'm going to try and make some more coherent comments." -Cristin?
"I *hate* math. Numbers should die." -Becca
"Ok, when Stark does his little Happy Place thing, different from Zhaan's Happy Place thing thank Monjo, to Aeryn when she's lying down all I could think of was Gilina. Then the implications that some part of my brain was comparing Aeryn and Gilina caught up with me. I threatened my brain once again with a good Q-tip stabbing, but it just raspberried me and went right on back to the Evil Comparison. Frell. "I am *not* Gilina!"" -Kathe
"Ohhhh, this is interesting. When John steps onto the Unfavored Planet, with his coat swinging around...Dude, he's a Jedi! That would be cool, Have John talking with Alec Obi-Wan and hanging out with Ewan Obi-Wan. Bending of space/time and some other
things, but wouldn't that be cool?" -Kathe
"Well, that's the end of D/C shippiness. It was great, and sexually satisfying while it lasted." -Kathe
"Okay, I had a major funny moment at a major dramatic moment. What's new? Anyway, when Z & S made time exist only for John or whatever hocus pocus they did, I yelled at the teevee, "Sarah! Stop playing with the vid controls." See, cuz in my world,
Sarah's vid talents makes things canon." -Kathe
"And it looks like Crais didn't take the Volvo like he was supposed to." -Kathe
"Don't worry, we are happy little Shippers now < g >--no wait, I take that back, now we are crying little Shippers... oh, where's the Kleenex???" -Shan
Sarah: "Awwww, Zhaan gave her a plant... How very domestic of her!"
Shan: "maybe it was one of Zhaan's relatives... Oh < slaps fingers for typing that > That was terrible!"
"I usually prepare for death!fic and Sad!fic with a great big box of Kleenex and a comfy blanket, and I felt myself missing them severely during this episode. (Hey, what can I say? I have a coping mechanism!)" -Kristen
"Think we can get them to add a disclaimer at the begining? ...You know, something like: "This episode contains material of an adult and sensitive nature and is intended for our more mature teen and adult audiences. All shippers with a tendancy to cry at emotional scenes should press pause now and go get their tissues and shoulders-to-cry-on before resuming."" -Kristen
Natalie: "Okay, how many of you caught Stark sneaking peeks at NakedZhaan? I saw his eye move..."
Kathe: "< sigh > Sad to admit, but I was tracking the roving eye as well. But couldn't you see the classic defense? "But she was there...and she was all....*blue*!""
Sarah: "Awww, it's a pretty nebula-thing. Fog! It's fog! They're in Iowa!"
Kathe: "< picturing Moya doing aerobatics over the corn fields of Iowa > < snerk > Then John yells out, "Hey, there's a Taco Johns!""
"Dude, if you ever come down here, I'll show you guys Chatahoochie [funny, drove past it for the first time in Dec.] and then this house in Quincy or Chatachoochie that I can so see John sitting out on. And ironically, the house that I could see Dadoo living in next door." -Kathe
"DANGER WILL ROBINSON! DANGER! THERE BE WACKY KATHE NONSENSE AHEAD. PUT DOWN ALL BEVRAGES AND BUCKLE YOUR SEAT BELTS...AND HAVE THAT MENTAL CLOROX HANDY, TOO." -Kathe
Cristin: "I'm sure that John-boy learned an awful lot about Scorpy's past, and his motivations, etc., from talking to chip-boy all those years. If John did remember, do you think he'd be able to, well, 'make friends' with Scorpy because of all this knowledge (not really friends, but you know what I mean.)"
Kathe: "What? Like some sort of blackmail from Scorpy in Jr. High. "Yeah, Scorpy...so Anla Patah slapped your vinayl ass when you were at the drinking fountain? And those guys in your gym glass ran your cowl up the flag pole? < snerk > And you farted in Domination of Lesser Species? Oh man....was it helium?"
I'm sorry for the mental bombs that I've just thrown, but damn, I couldn't be the only one pestered with that image now could I?"
"Life is good around here and I'm quite content. Well, I guess that's why I call it "home". < g > There are a couple of places, though, I'd love to live in for a while.
E.G. on the Moya together with Aeryns still has to be discovered twin sister ;-) (/me sighs and leans the head against one of the padded walls)" -Ralf
Natalie: "Please tell me that was supposed to be The Flax! Because The Flex just puts images in my head..."
Ralf: "Good thing I wasn't drinking or eating while I read your mail, otherwise I'd had clean my monitor. ROTFL!!! For a brief moment I tried to figure out what those images might have been, but no, I'm not gonna go there < EG >"
"There's no Viagra in the UT. 'Nough said. The reality of sexual dysfunction is sometimes the only thing that keeps me sane." -Shaye
"< shakes head > At least our Muses aren't surgically implanted in our brains. Thank Monj for that, right?" -Shaye
"Ian Watson did this one and CDM, right? < groans and turns green > Horrible things involving motion sickness pills must be done to him. Then he needs to continue directing after we buy him a StediCam (or however that's spelled)." -Becca
"< strangles Muse and whaps her with trout > No. You. Aren't. Writing. Any. Locket. Fic." -Becca
"oh yes... okay... fair warning here, do not drink or eat anything while reading mail from the shipper list... I *have* had to clean off my monitor a few times.... You'd think I'd learn after a couple time of spewing water over the screen." -Shan
"Tip: Don't undulate your tongue at work. It scares coworkers." -Natalie
"Dude, I don't think I exist anymore. I think I'm this odd little Kathe/Shaye/Sarah hybrid that just switches off between saying everything they would/do say." -Natalie
"We type with our noses here." -Lin
Lin: "So last night I was out at this bar in town and they have a cocktail menu, so I looked and they *don't do* a Sloe Comfortable Screw!!"
Natalie: "Oh, bad phrasing, Lin!"
Lin: "Frell! I need a beta reader for my posts!"
"Damn, must go back towork now and get mind off muse. muse bad . .. very bad . . . very very very bad." -Gigi
"Wow, I've actually got to time to post this week. Cool. (Hey! Wait a minute! Don't run away.)" -Gray
"Oh, hell. < Sarah valiantly tries to shove her VidMuse into the shredder > Dammit dammit dammit..." -Sarah
"Evil question - Now, technically - shouldn't the JourneyLogs at scifi read something like "we met up with Stark, then debated whether or not to go into this
