The Flax in ten pictures.

I love this episode.

Staanz is my favorite one shot character of the season. I adore her. Someday I’ll write a story where she and Chiana meet and have a crazy adventure and drive D’Argo nuts.

I think John & Aeryn might kiss or something too? Yes, no, maybe? I have this in my head:



but I might be confused :p

Seriously though, I really enjoy them in this episode, particularly the discussion about the afterlife, and Aeryn's enthusiasm.

Great picspam, I like 1 and 3 Aeryn the most. Yes, please write that story ;)

Yes, picspam time again! I loved that episode too for lots of different reasons other than the more obvious ones ;-)

I actually always wondered whatever happened to poor Stanz, left hogtied on her own on the ship!!! Did anybody ever find her and rescue her?

Now you really have to write that story to reassure me that she is fine and doing well! :D

The pics are all lovely as usual but the first and third last I love the most!

Thank you!

It's good to see another Stanz fan - I figure she was resourceful enough to be able to free herself as soon as the others left - otherwise it makes me too sad! I will do my best with the story :)

Love your Sikozu icon!

I have to give credit where credit is due, the icon was a treat to me from Sayuri_X for Halloween on FSland...I could never produce something that good all on my own!!!!

Awesome, as always.

I never really warmed to Stanz, but I love her in this picspam. I never realised before that she was Starks long lost cousin.

Aeryn is gorgeous... again.

The first time I saw ep this what really stuck in my memory was the ship scrapyard. The OTHER shippy stuff only began to matter more to me on second or third watch, when I had become infected with the shippiness thing. At the time I just thought the "Somebody's DOCKING!?" scene etc was funny. I didnt realise where it would end up leading.

Thank you!

I actually didn't see this episode until my second time through the series. I hadn't bought the Starbursts yet and our terrible downloaded copy wouldn't play...I also missed JC the first time though but that wasn't so bad. This was such a delightful treat, knowing the characters and what would happen. I'm not sure what I would have thought about it if viewed in its proper place.

LOL! That joke has a life of its own now, doesn't it?

First off, you've captured the sheer loveliness of Aeryn's hair. I miss season 1 hair!

And that's a really great shot of Stanz (the last one). She looks different than I remember her.

And the lighting is really nice, too.

And, as usual, the coloring is all sorts of awesome.

I go back and forth on Aeryn's early hair. The color and texture and thickness are fab, but the way it sometimes stands up around her head bothers me, because mine used to do the same thing when I was younger and then I thought it looked weird and now it makes me sad that I'm older and it's thinner and doesn't do it anymore LOL

Anyway, thank you!

Ahhh, Stanz! What's not to love about the best garbologist in the UTs?

Lovely picspam: you captured several moments in... stop-motion, for want of a better word, and most of them seem to be centered on gazes, and the intensity of their meaning.

Oh, and I adore pic. nr. 6 - if I'm not mistaken, it's the moment when D'Argo and Staanz observe the Luxan ship: that is the segment where one of the most beautiful pieces of soundtrack plays, very sweet and poignant.
The picture reminds me of it a great deal...

Thank you, Nym!

I too love the soundtrack at that moment - one of my favorite S1 pieces of music :)

There is something else in this episode? ;)))

That Aeryn's smile to D'Argo while she's trying to cover awkwardness of the moment in 8 is such wonderful small thing:)))

Thank you! I love Aeryn's smile there so much...I had to include it :)

And thank you for the Halloween gift! It's too cute!

Trying to catch up again!

These are really lovely. Quite dark, but so is the episode (visually). It gives a nice dramatic feel to the pics, especially 4-8. 4 and 7 are my favorites of the picspam, 4 has interesting muted colors and the shot is incredible, and OMG how pretty is Aeryn in 7?! Love the expression. So much desperation! Gah, the pic almost makes me ship J/A ;D

Also love the Staanz shots, especially 9 with the vibrant colors and awesome contrast.

Wonderful job again! ^^ Also:

Staanz is my favorite one shot character of the season. I adore her. Someday I’ll write a story where she and Chiana meet and have a crazy adventure and drive D’Argo nuts.
Yes, do this!! :D I love Staanz too, definitely best season 1 'alien of the week'.

Trying to catch up again!

I am so far behind in my feedbacking...should follow your example and try and catch up this weekend.

Thank you so much for the kind comments! I'm pleased with this set; I found the lighting a bit tricky to work with and whenever I tried to lighten a cap it got grainy. So I gave in to the dark ;) Glad it worked!
