Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Thrive to spite them

I didn't think it was a real word either, but I mispelled coquette and cocotee came up as one of the options.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Wait, I just checked dictionary.com it means prostitute.

And here I just thought it was Freedom for an egg dish. I am so sheltered.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

From the dictionary.com page:

[French, chicken, prostitute, feminine diminutive of coq, cock, from Old French. See cock1.]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

French, chicken, prostitute

I like reading that.

If I only had a brain...

Hee. Rydra Wong comments on the slashability of various SG characters in the comments on this post: [link]

"Somehow, I don't think 'aliens made us do it' will look so hot on the official report."

Given how often it seems to happen in fic, I'm sure the SGC has a special form for it now. Or possibly just a ticky-box at the end of standard mission reports.

("During the course of this mission, did any alien lifeforms force you to engage in any form of sexual activity? - Yes/No. If 'Yes', was this to a) appease the gods for a trivial infraction of religious law, b) carry out a fertility ritual, c) satisfy their curiosity about humanoid reproductive behaviour, or d) as the result of an amusing cross-cultural misunderstanding involving psychoactive drugs? {If d), please send a sample of the drugs to Area 51}. If none of the above reasons apply, fill out a copy of form J8764 and attach securely to the mission report.")

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Bwah!

I just read a hilarious . . . thing (not sure what you call it) where the LotR was done via The Princess Bride lines. [link]

A consortium of ex-Farscape writers collaborated on a Teal'c/Cameron piece which is smoking in its hotness.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

Is it wrong of me to be sad that the community was not named "zombie_jamboree"?
