Had dinner and watched Eat Me. It's always amazing at how much I forget I love this show and how much it relaxes me until I go back for another Farscape dose. This time last year, I was busy OD-ing on the entire series as well as bankrupting myself buying it since I got hooked just after the first two starburst editions came out. *pouts* So far, I have resisted buying any of the other new starbursts. Besides, I can always go visit mona and see if there is anything truly outstanding about the updated versions.


So, I think this is the first time I've actually rewatched Eat Me. My whole ambivalence to how the Two John's story line resolved is one reason for that. The other would be the fact that I'd yet to grow to love or like Jool at that point so I found her screaming a bit annoying. Not so much now.

The look they gave each other in the transport pod, it makes my heart hurt and want to take both to bed to comfort them. *grins* Hey, I'm ev0l personified here, just keeping up my rep. It's that look that made me so want to see the two interact again after the whole Damdaba thing beyond just the spiffy hologram. Logically, I understand the expense etc of doing the dual shots and all, but still. I wanted it. Heck, it's what caused the original Twin Regrets vignette that eventually became the intro for the crossover.

"Twins. Each equal and original."

Now I'm a little upset I didn't rewatch this earlier. I really should have worked that quote into the story somewhere. Maybe a place will come for it yet, but I'm thinking I'll have to wait until the sequel. It would fit nicely there.

I also so heart the Chiana&John (or "/" if you prefer). The beginning of them arguing is just such classic brother/sister behavior that it makes me ache for that relationship as much as I did when I was in college and had just lost it.


I suppose I should confess it now...Farscape has officially surpassed Firefly as my one true fandom. Firefly is still shiny, but Farscape is epic...and longer...and prettier. And gaaah. My muse is still protesting at the thought of writing aliens..which is well and fine, I have more than enough WIP thank you very much.

*sighs in contentment*

Off to go annoy the neighbors by vacuuming late at night.

:-) Anything to get you thinking about Twin Regrets is good by me. I love how wonderfully the tones of the two shows mix together in your fic.

Oh, and if you like John & Chiana and John/Chiana, an amazing writer of them is laytoncolt (aka nixa_jane). Oh, and her fic website is Grey Dawn (http://www.geocities.com/greydawnscape/).

Twin Regrets? *perks up* Is this a fic that I somehow missed? *looks hopeful that a link will be forthcoming*

Heh. I've still only seen Eat Me once, but it definitely made a big impression... ;)

Umm, yeah:) Though it would have been difficult to miss.

But there's actually two.

And then that got used to build the farscape/firefly crossover off of: http://frogs-fics.livejournal.com/8063.html

Oh, and I should say I was careful to write the crossover so that you could read it without knowledge of farscape or vice versa no knowledge of firefly. (not sure if you've seen firefly)

Okay. I will give you epic and longer, but prettier? Prettier? I protest. There isn't a single person on Serenity who's not drop dead gorgeous, but Farcape has Rygel and Scorpius and Zhaan etc. etc. etc.
