XD; The X-Files season 6 has too many "shipper" things. Suddenly everyone seems to be thinking that Mulder and Sully are a couple. When something starts being shoved down my throat repeatedly, that's usually when I really start disliking it. I love the pairing, as long as it's like it is on the show, with the emphasis on their deep and meaningful friendship. I do not like it after things really start going downhill. I don't like the idea that they eventually did end up in bed together, as most fans believe that they did, nor do I especially like the idea of Scully's ensuing pregnancy. (I also do not like the changes to CSM around season 7, nor do I like that he seems to have really died in the show's finale. And I also do not like killing off the Lone Gunmen. Come on, they were great!) I do, however, like the idea of Mulder eventually being abducted by aliens and finally being returned in a death-like state. I remember one person was starting a role-play from around the end of season four. That's about when things started basically jumping the shark. Maybe I'll try to find that RP and observe what's happening in it, if it's still going on.
For the last several days, Prisms has been on hold because I've been working on a Bowery Boys one-shot. The idea would not leave me alone, and it finally came to a head after I watched Spy Chasers. It's kinda dark, involving Sach accidentally shooting Duke, and I'm not sure I'll post it at The Bowery. XD; I have, however, showed it to a couple of the friends I've met there, and they've enjoyed it and made suggestions. I still need to determine if I want an epilogue type scene and if Slip and Duke should converse before Sach talks to Duke near the end. But it never fails. No matter how lighthearted a series may be, I can't go for long without coming up with dark and serious ideas. Of course, the Boys' earlier movies were more in the dramedy style that I love so much, and I don't think I've strayed into something terribly unbelieveable for them.
I've ended up writing with all of the gang there. Slip and Duke both seem to try being the leader at once, because they're both too stubborn to back down. LOL. Writing for Slip is an adventure. I have to learn things about the English language in order for him to "moider" it the way he does. I love his malaprops. XD And I have Whitey and Butch there as well. They were the original background Boys, along with Chuck, and I love them too. Basically, I want to capture the flavor of the older movies while including the later characters Duke and Myron, and Mike Clancy (as played by Percy Helton, not Dick Elliot).
I'm going to post my Bowery review of Fighting Trouble, because it's interesting to me due to characters behaving differently than usual and I don't want to rewrite my thoughts for the entry:
( Fighting Trouble )
I took 136 pictures from Crashing Las Vegas. XD; Oy. But Jimmy was in almost every scene, so there were a lot of pictures to take.
