Questions Post #13
Do you think Wesley looks like Ed Exley, as played by Guy Pearce, in L.A. Confidential?
What's the thing in lj called, where a post looks like a white page with text, with just a few buttons at the top, and can you always get to that in anyone's journals, or is it only some journals?
Where did the term whinging come from?
How bout the term pressies?
Does DB's acting (in say, Bones) still bother people sometimes?
Does anyone wished DB shaved his face closer these days (on Bones)?
Does anyone not think they fucked with Cordy's character in AtS S3? Besides TKDad, I mean?
Do you guys like Andy Hallett?
Do you guys like Stephanie Romanov?
Has anyone written Cordy/loofah? Anyone?
Do you rewatch eps of BtVS/AtS? How do you do it? Do you just pick out one you liked? Pick out a couple you liked? Watch an arc you liked? Fastforward to the good parts? Rewatch a whole season? Rewatch certain parts for fanfic writing purposes?
How do you make katsu don?
Why can't I get a job?
What ep of anything Whedonverse did you not like much at first, but gained respect for later?
Is there one you liked at first but not so much now?
Are there characters you like better in fanfic than on the actual screen?
Why is Kara Thrace such a badass?
How could that AoQ guy finally give a "SUPERLATIVE" (yeah, all caps) rating to my least favorite ep in all 7 seasons of BtVS?
Is there really any episode worse than "Provider"?
Does anyone just think "ARCHIE KENNEDY!!!!" every time they see Lee Adama?
Why does everyone hate Waiting In The Wings?
Am I the only one who doesn't think Angel making goofy faces at baby!Connor was out of character and stupid?
Am I the only one who actually kinda likes Justine (as a character)?
Okay, I'm done.

[Unfamiilar with.]
What's the thing in lj called, where a post looks like a white page with text, with just a few buttons at the top, and can you always get to that in anyone's journals, or is it only some journals?
[Meep.]
Where did the term whinging come from?
[Is it British? Don't know the etymology.]
How bout the term pressies?
[Don't even know what it means.]
Does DB's acting (in say, Bones) still bother people sometimes?
[Yes.]
Does anyone wished DB shaved his face closer these days (on Bones)?
[Yes.]
Does anyone not think they fucked with Cordy's character in AtS S3? Besides TKDad, I mean?
[Show me the person...]
Do you guys like Andy Hallett?
[Yes.]
Do you guys like Stephanie Romanov?
[Yes.]
Has anyone written Cordy/loofah? Anyone?
[Not sure.]
Do you rewatch eps of BtVS/AtS? How do you do it? Do you just pick out one you liked? Pick out a couple you liked? Watch an arc you liked? Fastforward to the good parts? Rewatch a whole season? Rewatch certain parts for fanfic writing purposes?
[Rewatch things straight through, unless I am in need of comfort viewing, in which case, Angelus. I know, I know. When I do watch selected episodes or scenes, it is because of vidding or a paper.]
How do you make katsu don?
[Meep?]
Why can't I get a job?
[Meep?]
What ep of anything Whedonverse did you not like much at first, but gained respect for later?
["Are You Now or Have You Ever Been."]
Is there one you liked at first but not so much now?
["Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered"--I thought it was hilarious the first three times, then it started making me nauseated.]
Are there characters you like better in fanfic than on the actual screen?
[Yes. Fred, for instance.]
Why is Kara Thrace such a badass?
[Why not?]
How could that AoQ guy finally give a "SUPERLATIVE" (yeah, all caps) rating to my least favorite ep in all 7 seasons of BtVS?
[Meep?]
Is there really any episode worse than "Provider"?
[I don't believe so, no.]
Does anyone just think "ARCHIE KENNEDY!!!!" every time they see Lee Adama?
[Not here...]
Why does everyone hate Waiting In The Wings?
[The ballet plot was too damn obvious if you knew anything about Giselle. Also, I hate Angel/Cordelia.]
Am I the only one who doesn't think Angel making goofy faces at baby!Connor was out of character and stupid?
[Nah, it was perfectly in character. Angel can be such a dork. It's kind of adorable.]
Am I the only one who actually kinda likes Justine (as a character)?
[I liked her a lot! I'm sorry she never appeared again after "Deep Down." She would have made a great sleeper character to reappear in S5.]

Presents. In possibly the twisted language of infantile freaks. Or British people?
[Show me the person...]
[Rewatch things straight through, unless I am in need of comfort viewing, in which case, Angelus. I know, I know. When I do watch selected episodes or scenes, it is because of vidding or a paper.]
That's disturbing. And yet, I find myself more comfortable in at least *writing* Angelus than I do any other character. He gets to say whatever he thinks, and barring that, whatever will hurt. Usually both. Guess those things come naturally to me. That's disturbing, too.
["Are You Now or Have You Ever Been."]
I love how this ep is not only a great one shot but fits in so perfectly into the arc and theme of S2.
[Yes. Fred, for instance.]
I like the concept of Fred better than Fred. I do quite like her on-screen, but in fic there's the ways she parallels Drusilla and Faith and Cordelia, and the other ways she parallels Connor, and weirdly Buffy. And then there's Wesley. She's more fun to me as a place in people's lives than a character in her own right.
[The ballet plot was too damn obvious if you knew anything about Giselle. Also, I hate Angel/Cordelia.]
I don't know Giselle. I don't hate the idea of A/C so much as how they handled it in the series. The way they handled A/C reminded me of role-playing, and WitW is all about free will. Thematically I think it's rather cool. Though yes, simplistic.
It's kind of adorable.]
It totally is.
[I liked her a lot! I'm sorry she never appeared again after "Deep Down." She would have made a great sleeper character to reappear in S5.]
I always want her to reappear, too. Then again, I have a thing with those little characters who just disappear. Like Justine and David Nabbit and Kate and Anne and Gwen.
Thanks for taking the time with these!
