Podfic & commentary

[xparrot]

Thanks to urania_2006, there's now a podfic of my McShep flashfic "Speech Deprived," the one where Rodney loses his voice, and John's not as happy as might be expected - check it out here! And be sure to mention to urania_2006 that she is awesome.

And the lovely hils did a DVD commentary for my little Smallville dark-fic "Promises to Keep" - nifty, and terribly flattering, thank you! (Anyone else find it odd that we call them DVD commentaries, with no discs in sight? ...No? Carry on, then!)

On season 3 of Traders - the show's getting dark(er) - that's the problem with these kinds of dramas, they always have to keep pushing the envelope, do increasingly worse things to the chars, or have the chars do increasingly worse things, to keep the stories interesting. This is why I tend to fan more avidly on the status quo shows - no, there's not a lot of character development in SGA, but they started out pretty good guys, and they've stayed that way (give or take the occasional and soon-forgotten moral hiccup), and I like it like that. Though the unspooling dramas do have their train-wreck appeal. ...Also I am getting the urge to do a pic-spam of all the Grant hugs. Because there are a lot of them, and where else are you going to get a younger DH glomping people, and guys stroking his hair? (Stroking his hair! So jealous!)

Just to warn you, the darkness will continue in Traders (as you no doubt guessed). I really, really love that show, but as the seasons went by it got harder for me to deal with the changes all the characters went through.

Yeeeeah, I accidentally got spoiled for a later-season death that made me nervous about what is to come. I might be able to last with Traders - I'm not fanning on it, so I'm not as invested in the chars and won't care as much about their fates, but drama reaches a point that it stops being fun and becomes painful...
