no_takebacksHello Pilots Shippers, and welcome to another week of me being in charge of your DPPs. The good news is that I've finished my marking and am no longer quite so obsessed with Pilots Histories.
In honour of the fact that it is Monday, and Mondays often bring out the grumpy in people I'm inviting you to share your grumpy.
This is your opportunity to bring your rants about the show, RDM, Pilots, the Plot - anything so long as it's related to the show. Just get it off your chest. But while you're sharing also feel free to leave the things that help you deal with your rage the most - fic recs, meta or just words of wisdom.
I'll leave you for now with the matra that helps me when I find RDM's extra statements about and meddling with pilots particularly frustrating. "None of what he says as extra information is canon because if it doesn't exist on film then it doesn't exist."
In today's picture, Kara is especially annoyed. Nice to see she's entering into the spirit of the thing.

Re: Rant On!
Date: 2011-08-15 11:21 pm (UTC)Someone should have sentenced Rondy and all the writers to copying that line out 1000 times, like schoolkids do. And then tacked it in foot-high letters on the writers' room whiteboard when they were working on Maelstrom.

The text of the *poof* scene may say "it feels good", but Katee's body language and expression do seem to be saying "this feels completely rubbish".
Yeah, that or "I'm trying really hard to hold it together so the last memory he has of me isn't of me sobbing, and that is why I can't so much as let him touch me because if he does, I'll fall apart."
And YES, it should be part of every pilotshipper's personal canon. It's small comfort, but at least it's some small evidence that, despite what Ron etc wanted to believe, pilots weren't just two frakked-up people who were only drawn to each other because of frakked-up wrongness.
