jmtorres: Animated icon showing Iz and Max from Roswell serious and grinning like fools. Text: alien love/shiny alien love. (roswell)
Hey, if I wrote Roswell fic, would there be any audience for it? I'm trying to figure out what power Kyle eventually gets, and that story would probably be concurrent with how the puppy pile that is the (surviving) Roswell 6 in the VW microbus becomes functional poly. I also have this theory, based on I keep watching episodes in which Liz and Max are desperately making out to achieve moar visions, and Michael offers Max his apartment complete with seduction tunes preloaded on the stereo, for MOAR VISIONS, and I can't help wondering if it wasn't just healing that made Liz eventually get powers. And that therefore Kyle will be flailing about his imminent powers that don't actually show up until he starts doing sex with aliens.

I have in my head two different versions of members of the Roswell 6 attempting to explain puppy pile. Max just runs down the list of who all sleeps with who, Kyle starts talking about primaries and non-mutual primaries.

And yet, for all of that, Ruby still owns my head. Ruby wants to talk the Winchester boys into a threesome, which is something that's unlikely to happen in Rubyverse for a number of reasons, though, well, mostly Hell. If I felt like I could write sex I would dash off a PWP or five. I found a Ruby/Winchesters threesome on AO3 the other day, it was, *laugh* probably less fucked up than I would have written them. Anyone know of other threesome fic that might be wandering about the internet? Or Dean/Ruby? I heart me some Dean/Ruby.

Took the evening off from the end of semester madness to see niq, catch up on dw (I skimmed a lot), and watch some Roswell.

Roswell: I ship puppy pile. I noted that I wished I'd had that much poly terminology at the time, because instead I just shipped fourteen pairings. When we paused to examine whether that was an exaggeration, I got up to twelve I could name. See, I ship all the conventional pairs, plus I have a firm belief that of the in-the-know group I believe the only one who wouldn't do Max is Maria, plus I like various flavors of femslash and Kyle/Alex and Michael/Iz.

Really I think that the finale can be read as: wedding of lead heterosexual couple stands in for puppy pile commitment ceremony, cemented by them hopping in the VW microbus and driving off into the sunset. My biggest disappointment about the finale is that they didn't all pile out of the van to hug Sheriff Valenti goodbye, because he mommed all of them. Seriously. Missing class is excusable to save a planet. Yours, mine, anybody else's. It is NOT excusable when done in the name of underage gambling! How much did he love those kids? So much.

Mind, this does not stop me from shipping Max/Valenti along with everything else. PS: KYLE'S FACE.

Need to catch up on this the next time I have a break: http://shirozora.dreamwidth.org/99666.html

So I did hear that right, the themesong of the trashy teen show I'm watching for constructed vid source includes the line Your stars align in threesomes.

I. I.

To be fair, when I read the synopsis on the show I figured I probably would be solving the obvious love triangle with a threesome in my head? But then the show didn't so much build a love triangle as a skeevy, sexually coercive environment where two teenage boys fight over the right to a girl who has turned them both down repeatedly, both verbally and physically. I had figured if I was going to invest this much time watching a few dozen episodes of this, I'd probably acquire it as a yuletide fandom or something, especially since it has two actresses I like, but right now I am at no, no, and hell no. Five episodes in and she's beat up three different guys for three different sexual assault situations and there's been at least four five, knew I was forgetting one, other problematic situations that didn't escalate to violence and a marriage proposal attached to a shitload of money.

At this point I don't want any of the women on this show to hook up with any of the men who have shown interest in them, let alone align in threesomes. They should discover lesbianism or someone can have the sweet, funny Gramps character (one of the seventeen-year-olds flirting with the respectful old dude would be ten times less creepy than where the show's already gone), someone can call dibs on twelve-year-old boy for a couple of years down the line, and someone can discover that the ranch hand is ethical, devoted, and awesome, and seriously should not be ignored just because he's Latino. Yes, all of the sexually available men on the show are creepfaces, and the men who are treated as sexually off-limits are the old dude, the tiny dude, and the dude who's not white. So much wrong.

And this doesn't even cover the part where half the female characters are conniving and awful, too.

(I don't even want to say what it is, I feel like I shouldn't be remotely giving it press, but someone will ask and Wildfire, okay? It's Wildfire. It is not worth your time unless you're making a constructed reality vid about Ruby's host body or how Major Kira retired to raise horses on Earth after DS9.)

You know, I had the unholy suspicion that the vividcon deadline was going to be great for my word count. 1879 words. Spoilers through K&R, I suppose (not the finale, hadn't seen it yet, watching it... now); inspired by this bunny of [livejournal.com profile] niqaeli's *cries*, Matt and Jordan. Also on AO3.

That only cost me about four and a half hours!
