three quick thoughts

[rose_griffes]

I'm just passing by for the moment... so:

1) Anyone feel like beta-reading a fic for me? My usual beta-readers are out of contact for a few days (or at least one of them is supposed to be--heh). It's under 3000 words, Hera Agathon POV from childhood on up. And there's a Two. Of course there's a Two. I don't think it needs much but I like the reassurance of having another pair of eyes look over a story before posting. It's pretty gen, though there's background Athena/Helo and Hera/original male character (not the Two). Done! Thanks, sabaceanbabe!

2) Er, how does Felix refer to Anastasia Dualla around the New Caprica time period? Ana? Dee? Lt. Dualla? And how about later, say after the revelation about Earth? Yes, I'm being completely lazy, but maybe one of you knows the answer and I won't have to go look it up... or just decide on my own.

3) I felt like watching some TV last night, so I went to hulu.com and they had five episodes of Castle. I haven't watched any of it before, though enough people post about it on LJ that I knew the basic premise. I enjoyed the first one I saw--something about, um... a con artist who was pretending to explore the Arctic circle, and he got shot. So I then watched the episode with Trucco (TRUUUUUCCCOOOOO!) and *guh*. He got to smile! And wear nice suits! And spar! It was all very, very pretty.

As for Castle's "feelings" for Beckett, doesn't he love himself the most anyway? Ahahahahahah.

So Castle is pretty much the silliest, most predictable cop show ever. I'm pretty sure I'll watch it again. :)

No, he loves Alexis the most.

Oh wait, that's his daughter, right? Keep in mind that I've only seen the two episodes, and she didn't have a big part in either one... though I liked her a lot. And they really need some female presence anyway on this show.

Yeah, that's his daughter. The relationship between Castle and his daughter is the best damn thing about the show. He's a really good dad, and he isn't embarrassed to be overheard making worried/affectionate phone calls.

I can beta for you, if you'd like. sabaceanbabe at gmail dot com

Just sent it! Let me know if you don't get it soonish. Thanks!

Hrm. I think he called her Dee both times, not that they had any sort of conversations, except after Earth (and I'm pretty sure he called her Dee).

And yeah, Castle is ridiculously predictable (when I can figure things out...)

[rose-griffes.livejournal.com]

Hah, that's what I think as well--if even I know that Scott Cohen is the inside man, it's very obvious.

That is its undeniable charm. :-D

[rose-griffes.livejournal.com]

Heh, yup.

The Ana thing was so weird, because Felix had NEVER called her Ana before that. On duty, he'd refer to her as Lieutenant Dualla (or if he was sort of joking around), but otherwise, he called her Dee. Never heard her called Anastasia or Ana until SaGN.

[rose-griffes.livejournal.com]

The first person I can recall ever calling her Ana was Lee--in one of the deleted scenes around "Eye of Jupiter" or "Rapture." Everyone else used Dualla or Dee until then...

Thanks!
