virkatjol answered your question:I’m in the mood to watch some Farscape, but I...

I always go Meltdown, Green Eyed Monster, Crackers or Out Of Their Minds

Meltdown is one of my favorites for sure. For some reason I like to make myself cry and watch Icarus Abides.

Last night I was in a livestream with Claudia Black and 20 other people (only three or four of which were also actively participating with comments and questions), during which Claudia jumped up and down on a couch, instructed us to ask if she was wearing any underwear, chatted adorably with us while we flattered her, and then dramatically read gamer fanfic aloud with admirably minimal mocking for the slash genre. 

Then I tweeted about wanting her to narrate fanfic every night and she favorited it. 

Small fandom perks, kids. When they happen they are nice.

virkatjol answered your question “Can any fans of Farscape recommend a series to me that is similar? ...”

There isn't anything. :(

Unfortunately I've noticed. It was a really fantastic surprise that it was so great. With any luck it won't ruin me for any other scifi series.

Cam/Vala, Stargate SG-1

Because Jo gets sad that I never write them anymore, and just because I wanted to. 

"So, if there are multiple universe with multiple versions of ourselves..." Vala starts talking, smiling and twirling her hair around her finger. 

Oh no. 

Trouble. 

That means trouble. The hair twirling. It's one of her tells. 

Actually, talking is one of her tells, too. Vala, words. Trouble. They just go together. Words optional. 

"Yeah?" Cam grits his teeth. 

"That means that somewhere, there's some version of us... and we could be doing anything." Her face is bright and happy with whatever possibilities are flitting through her imagination. "We could be scuba diving-" 

"No." 

"-ruling benevolently over a small planet-" 

"No." 

"-at your mother's house, having pie-" 

"No." 

"-having sex-" 

The pencil in Cam's hand snaps. "What?" 

Vala gives him a wide-eyed, unconvincingly innocent smile. "I said t-rex. Riding a t-rex. You know, one of those prehistoric earth creatures? There's a planet of them, by the way. Now, how do you suppose they got here? Or there? Ooh, maybe, in an alternate universe, we brought them-" 

"Trying to work here." Cam glares. 

Vala sighs and pushes off of his desk. "You're just no fun, Cameron." 

Cam waits until she's gone to chucking. "T-rex," he mumbles to himself with a smile.

Birthday Cupcake Ben Browder/Claudia Black PG-13

For the bestest not-a-boss and friend ever, happy birthday virkatjol! 

Claudia's only barely drifting out of sleep when she hears the bedroom door open. A few seconds later that floor board that always gives little sneaky boys away squeaks loudly. But instead of her little guys she hears Ben hiss a little, "Shit." She laughs just a little but, sleepy and scratchy, and slits her eyes open. "Why are you- ooh." Ben is still in his pajama pants and no shirt. In his hand is a cupcake, one lone pink candle flickering on top. "Please tell me that is-" "Strawberry cream surprise from that all natural vegan organic gluten free sugar free charge you twice as much to make it taste free place you love so much." He sits down on the bed beside her and kisses the top of her head. "Happy birthday, honey." She murmurs a thanks while reaching for the cupcake. "So much better than the culinary offerings of a nine year old and a seven year old." She blows the candle out and then takes a bite, moaning. "You are the perfect husband." Ben slings an arm around her and tugs her against his chest while she eats it. "Remember that later on tonight," he says in a low husky voice that makes her shiver. She finishes the cupcake and raises her mouth to his. When the kiss breaks Ben licks his lips. "Hey, not so bad that way. You know I got a whole dozen of those in there..." "Well," Claudia smirks. "Be sure and save one for tonight." "Why wait?" Ben's hand travels down her side to her hip and he's just about to push his fingertips into her panties when there's a loud giggling from down the hallway... From the kitchen. "That's why," she sighs, crumbling up the cupcake wrapper and tossing it into the trash. "Tonight," she promises. He grins. "Tonight. Now go get that birthday breakfast before they burn the kitchen down."

I rented when I was 24, I think i had to get special insurance or something

There are a few car companies that will rent to under 25. I rented at 23 but had to pay an extra fee for under age.

Yah, that was my recollection, that it was allowed but just more costly.  25 was the distant horizon after which car rentals were more affordable :)

I remember the feeling. But now that I've met Rebecca I can't not like watching Grayza. But I still can't see her AS Grayza, she's so sweet and nice and lovely!

the dichotomy between actor and character is one of my absolute favorite things in the universe
