Of course what matters is the blame...
This is all havocthecat's fault. She can play innocent all she likes, but she's to blame.
Somehow last night I acquired more bunnies. They were obscure bunnies. One was screaming "there can be only one" and trying to destroy the others. The other one was doing a bad imitation of Betty's "Salome on Wry" with fewer veils. The other I think is trying to pick my pocket. Why did it have to be bunnies?
She was discussing an obscure crossover she had for one of Torri's characters and I was reminded yet again of how much I liked Torri's Claudia Hoffman character in "The Raven". Now Claudia was pretty messily dead, but it's science fiction. Even when they're supposed to be dead, they're not always. Or they are dead and they still haunt you in other ways.
1. HL's Amanda bumps into possibly a younger Elizabeth Weir and freaks out over the striking resemblance to the very dead Claudia. She's used to the idea of people returning from the dead, but they usually bring their own alarm clocks.
2. An AU Claudia lives. In some ways, she had the more to lose if she was the Immortal. She had the family and life that she couldn't have anymore. How does someone simply turn their back on that? Especially when the answer is "Because the Game says so." The kids could have been adopted, couldn't they? Although people would argue the whole pre-Immies stay loners before changing idea... if so, why didn't she?
3. I can even blame a McKay/Cadman bunny on her and she doesn't even ship them. But she did dangle the idea of Cadman studying bellydance in one of her "Five Things" stories and suddenly I've been tempted to use it, if only to see Rodney's reaction. Not in a talent show environment either. But I know nothing about the subject.
