Yay, weekend!

+0: While I am not a slash-type, the general concept does amuse me; hell, I have ambitions of causing readers of my eventual books to start writing slash like crazy. Until then, I get to be amused by the slash potential of various fandoms I myself am in. Like Battlestar Galactica. And I just saw this over on bsg_women, quoted from Ron Moore's blog:

As far as I'm concerned, fan fiction (that is, fiction written for fun, or non-professionally) should feel free to go in whatever direction it feels like going. If you want to write a story about Starbuck being Adama's illegitimate daughter and how she's carrying on an illicit affair with Laura following an accident which flings them across time and space to the Ponderosa Ranch, be my guest. It's certainly no further out there than the K/S stories in Trekdom which detailed the sexual and romantic liasons between one James Kirk and one Mr. Spock.

If you're inspired by this series and these characters and you want to turn that inspiration into artistic expression, I've proud and hope you enjoy the process. (And it should go without saying that there is a very bright and bold line between writing for fun and writing for profit and only the foolish would care to mess with NBC-Universal's legal department.)

So go and slash to your heart's content!



-1: There is just no justice when my cat's meowing outside the bedroom door in the morning does not in fact get me up--but rather, makes me dream of getting up to go get her water and then almost falling down the stairs. I should have realized it was a dream because the stairs were all wrong for our house--but hey, it made sense at the time.



+2: And now, a list of things that the world should be glad that solarbird does not own:

1. An airhorn.
   
2. A tranquilizer gun.
   
3. A rocket launcher (the University of Washington in particular should be glad about this).
   
4. A tank.
   
5. Her very own pet Godzilla.
   
6. A fully stocked secret laboratory suitable for creating death rays (because those fools at the Academy rejected her research).
   
7. The Mons Meg from Castle Edinburgh in Scotland (see previous notation re: rocket launcher).
   
8. An orbiting space station with a gigantic laser pointed down to the Earth, populated by an elite league of superheroes.
   
9. A moat full of alligators, into which she may hurl her enemies.
   

What else should the world be glad Dara does not own? Submit your suggestions now!

Based on prior observations, I'm pretty sure her morning meows can be translated to "HEY! YOU! BIPEDS! GET UP SO I CAN TAKE OVER THE BED!" :)
