gerbal and I went to Hometown Comic Book Store yesterday and loaded up on Buffy Season 8 and the Serenity Comic. I am not big on comic books - I'm just not that visual - but man I am glad I made the leap.

( Because of the vaguely spoilery things! )

( And here's where the spoilers get specific )

I have never been a comics nerd before! I am enjoying it.

Also, it's interesting how different a character and an actor can be, isn't it? I was never all that into Sarah Michelle Gellar, but the Season 8 vol I cover art makes my heterosexuality crumble a bit. Oh, Sunnydale people. I missed you.

ETA: Also, while I've seized control of an internet connection: vid rec! Set Fire to the Third Bar by sol_se. (Torchwood, Jack/Ianto). I am not particularly into either this song or this pairing right now, and I still love the pants off this video. Sol_se does some really cool things with timing, and makes connections that are surprising and interesting. I know the whole TW fandom has seen every frame of S1 Jack/Ianto footage a thousand times, but she still manages to do new things with it.

I made gerbal watch I am / Lamb and he conceded that my fandom is pretty awesome. ::takes bow:: Also, we're in this terrible loop right now where I tell him what's going to happen in my story, he argues that I should do the exact opposite, I try to twist his arm into writing a remix if he has such a big opinion, he supports extremely obscure plot points with Wikipedia entries, and it's like a two-person fandom forum of the worst kind. And then five minutes later I have a new idea and I'm all GERBAL LISTEN TO ME and he stops watching Buffy reruns on youtube studying and we're off again.

Usually I would put this kind of real-life chatter under friendslock but my little brother is never going to be on my friendslist, so I'm spamming everyone. Hello.

Also, I went to the gym.
