Saw the preview for Farscape #24...

...and I realized I'm hoping Chiana dies.  Which would be sad, but not nearly as sad as her free will and dignity being stripped away, her having literally no choice in who she has sex with (isn't that called rape?), her being suddenly, slavishly devoted to Nebari ideals, and no one giving a shit or thinking this might be odd, or of some concern.  

Alive she will continue to be used and abused and alternately ignored and maligned.  Dead she will be a free spirit, with Zhaan, D'Argo, Jool, and Sikozu for company.

Huh.  Maybe her death at this point wouldn't be sad at all.

I need a free weekend where I can morph into an amoeba in front of the tv and catch up :-)

Fingers crossed it's soon! I'm very pleased with the season so far although it's a different, less intense experience, watching it week to week instead of mainlining it.

all characters are totally *wrong* (maybe, just maybe Rygel is the only one close to his "true" self). I understand that the comics medium does not allow for depth and psychological introspection, but in this case they have taken each character's most superficial details and exaggerated them into a caricature of the people we loved to watch on screen.

That's a very succinct way to put it (you have such a way with words!) and exactly my problem with it. Everything else is just details.

If the comics story-arc must be considered a continuation of the Farscape time-line, I don't like what that particular universe has been turned into. I bought the comics partly because I wanted to show support to a continuation of Farscape in some form, but they turned out to be something else for me as a fanfic writer: they represent the kind of stories, the kind of characters, I *don't* want to write.
Hey, that's something positive after all, isn't it? *VEG*

That it is =D And hopefully we will be enjoying your stories, and their universe, for many years to come.

I had more typed out here, but it wasn't making any sense - I think it's time for me to log off tonight :)

Indeed. It's one of the reasons, besides lack of time and other shows that I follow, for my... hoarding-but-not-watching until now :-)


And thank you, very much, for your kind and generous words on my stories.
I thrive on feedback such as this... :-)
