Sunny Sunday
So, I posted Chapter 6 of A Lot to Live Up To yesterday. You know, I kind of wish I could get this finished before Remix assignments went out. I don't know that my remixer would choose it, especially because it's so long, but I would LOVE to see Hoshi's side of this story.
Working on Chapter 7. First of all, I do NOT want to play "No Exit" here and do a backstory info dump. But also, Cottle of all people is driving me nuts. I think after I'm done with this, I'm going to go through and eliminate half the medical talk in it. The entire chapter takes place in sickbay, and Cottle's more a role than a character (which makes sense), but he's driving me bonkers. People don't want to read all the medical technobabble, dude. Go smoke a cigarette instead.
Ran four miles this morning, and am now sunburned and still guzzling water like it's going out of style. But it's been a good weekend- picnic and carnival yesterday, beautiful weather, nice night last night, and chocolate covered strawberries :)
We also watched Caprica on Friday. Okay, if this gets picked up, I'll watch it. But the minute we see a young ANYONE ELSE or any other family name we know- with the exception of Lampkin, because it's canon that Romo knew Joseph Adama- I'm going to freak. Young William Adama is fine, especially because Joseph was a bit of a character in the actual series. We'd better not see a young Laura Roslin or a young Saul Tigh (that one I doubt, although I hear the Final Five comic book is something else again, and I DON'T mean that in a good way) or a young Sherman Cottle or whatever. There'd better not be a Gaeta family or a Baltar family or a Cain family represented.
But I liked the grays, and I liked Daniel Graystone as a character- I think he's got a lot of potential to be interesting. But man, where is the Graystone/Adama slashfic after the field of wildflowers scene? I was laughing my ass off.
That said, can I just say I actually found one aspect about the V-club very annoying? There have been comments from the writers that we'll see more in the way of homosexual characters. But anyone else notice every time we saw the V-club, it was all girl on girl? (I can totally see Lacy being a lesbian, and as long as they kept her an interesting character, I'm fine with that. And Lacy/Zoe makes total sense to me, if they went that way.) But I didn't even see much guy-on-girl (although damn, Ron, can you use another sexual position besides woman on top?) in the V-club.)
But yeah, I'm interested enough to keep watching.
I'll have to write up a real review for MRFH.
Back to trying to get Cottle to stop jargoning. Yay :)
