It's here; and it's hilarious. I hope they hire her.
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.

BTVS/Doctor Who (Eccleston season) crossover: Faith visits the TARDIS. Makes me laugh like a goon.

Oh dear Lord, I just unsuspectingly ran across Daniel Jackson/Bill Lee slashfic and got a clear mental image before I could click the close window button.

wonders who Bill Lee might be. Concludes that the answer is 'somebody not hot'.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Ther's a retired pitcher named Bill "Spaceman" Lee, but, his heyday was 1975, so I'm thinking it's not him. I mean, there are second careers after baseball, but interplanetary archaeology usually isn't on the list.

FBpnAG: "Aaaargh!"
Asgard: "Hey, I told you."
FBpnAG: "You never said they would be bleeding snake monsters that possessed people! Snake monsters bent on intergalactic domination! And apostrophe abuse!"
Asgard: (looking shifty) "...oh, didn't I? Sorry. Right. Whoops, is that the time? Must pop back home to feed the giants. Later!"

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Bill Lee is The Other Guy. In Evolution he's The Other Guy Who Gets Captured By Stereotypical Central American Terrorists; in most of the rest of his episodes, he's The Other Scientist Who Isn't Sam Carter. He's kind of short and balding and roundish, in my head at least. (I have a lousy visual memory.)

For the SGA readers: Your Cowboy Days Are Over, by M.
John Sheppard, post-Allies, in a place you'd never expect him. What do you give away and what do you keep, in order to protect your family?
Read it.
Bring tissues.
(And yes, I'm feeling a little ashamed that I didn't think the fandom would react as well as it has; this story is not anything like the stories that most people in the fandom seem to love. It's good to know that if it's good, it gets recognized.)
