We need a new category for Locke. Maybe a W for Worship or a T for Torture? What say you?
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't think he'd be any fun to torture.
Jin would be fun, with the breaking, and stuff. And Boone, probably.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
MAN, I'd like someone to torture Boone.
Wow, where DOES my Boone hate-on come from? It's just all free-floating.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I vote W for Locke, for watch from a safe distance.
I don't think he'd be any fun to torture.
Jin would be fun, with the breaking, and stuff. And Boone, probably.
I like ita's mind. It's scary, but I like it.

MAN, I'd like someone to torture Boone.
If you had to watch it? Probably would be just as boring.

Not if you have a good torturer.
Locke would just resist then die.
Boone, he would need to fight it. And you could totally play with his mind, make him think he is being a hero, he is giving you a hard time, and then crush him body and soul with a flick of your wrist.
You had a better plan for how to spend the next twenty minutes?
Jin, on the other hand, would be a challenge.

OMG, Boone is the new Riley, isn't he?
If, say, Riley had a squicky vibe with a sister, I mean.
No, never mind. Boon is Ben - who DID have a squicky vibe with his "sister".
Jack is Riley.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Boone: "Owwww! I'll tell you what you want to know! Just stop it! Stop it! Stop it! Aaagh!"
Torturer: "I haven't even touched you, yet!"

ita, you are sick, disturbed person.
I like that in a person.

Oh, and Shannon singing in as it was put "flawless french"?
I can sing Alouette like a Voyageur, but I can't speak more than a few words of french, and only then if I'm reading it or faking it.
Singing "Le Mer" flawlessly isn't linguistics, it's musical memory. If you are musically inclined and hear a song over and over, it would be easy to pick it up.
For instance, many a person has sung The Beatles' "Michelle" accurately, knowing not a whit of french.
Not to mention "Lady Marmalade." hee.
