AAAAAAHHHH I SEE YOU THAR OPENING SCENE, WITH CLASSY LITTLE SHOT-FREEZES SO THEY COULD THROW US THE CHARACTER NAMES
(yeah, clearly I really really love that stupid fucking movie too XD)
OH SHITBALLS IS THERE GONNA BE AN UNFORTUNATE ENCOUNTER WITH THAT FLAGPOLE?

ooh, and is Chekov gonna be Casey now? or isit still Scotty's gig? I BURN TO KNOW.

aaaaand as to that first question - um. I've never beta'd (betaed?) before, and idk if I could be properly ruthless given my propensity to squee and melt at everything you write, but I give good spelling and grammar. so, ya know, if you're desperate :D?

[betweenthebliss]

heeeeeeeeee i'm glad it's recognizeable! i did actually sit down with the movie last night and figure out how i was gonig to do that scene.... and yes, chekov is going to be casey now, he just fits better wtih the spastic nerd thing. XD

and re: beta, i will totally let you know when it's done. XD

[betweenthebliss]

also, no there is not going to be an unfortunate encounter with a flagpole; that makes ME cringe, i couldn't do that to chekov. XD

okay, my scotty/uhura fic is not totally done, but i am leaving for vacation in less than 24 hours and would love for you to look over what i have done and give me your thoughts! :D what is your email? or if you want to IM me it's rosesfromshells. <3333

OMG THE FACULTY! OMG! OMG!

Kirk is Stan! Spock is Stokely! "Walk much?"

*hyperventilates*

Ok! I LOVELOVELOVE this movie! Casey and Delilah and Zeke...

(Uhura with poms poms!)

*happy sigh*

I love everything about it but especially the stunning challenge line: Then answer me something, Mary Beth; why are you naked? This, of course, is a pivotal point in the film and I'm interested to see how it will be, ah, resolved in your adaptation.

Speaking of adaptations and The Faculty. Have you read Wax Jism's (in)famous 'Void?" If you have, you'll know what I mean when I say that this idea is rife with sordid possibility.

omg i just had this whole long comment typed out to you and then stupid internet explorer ate it. D:

to sum up : i'm so glad this is recognizeable, i'm so glad there are other fans of the movie paying attention to this challenge, remixredux09 had a faculty fic that you should definitely go check out, yes i have read void, and there will most likely be some outtake / sequel drabbles to the actual fic exploring the more, ah, sordid side of things, lol. XD

*kicks IE* thanks for the comment-- seriously, i'm so SO glad there are a couple of people who might possibly appreciate what cracktastic fun this AU is, lmao. <33333333

*feels your pain* I've given up on IE. Google Chrome is much nicer although not compatible with fun things like Delicious toolbars. Yet.

As to the challenge: it's *definitely* recogniseable so no worries there. Also, I love the fact that you're ALREADY anticipating the outtakes.
Of course, *I'm* already anticipating the outtakes too...

Enjoy your holiday! *heads off to trawl remixredux09*

omg i hate IE too, it's on my work comp and i don't have admin privileges to DL firefox -.-

yeah, i figure regular movies all have deleted scenes, a fic based on a movie should too. ;D and thanks for the well wishes; i plan to enjoy the hell out of it. XD might post another snippet while i'm away, too, 'cus i'm a tease like that. xDDDD
