links for stories and such

Had a (brief) discussion on another LJ about my religion and politics, so I'll link to this recent article: A Female Episcopal Priest Visits a Mormon Temple. I thought it was an interesting (although brief) perspective on my religion from an outside perspective.

fic for Person of Interest: I'm still planning Carter/Reese post-season one plotty fic. I've managed to come up with some workable ideas about, uh, stuff (plot-related stuff! motivation and character stuff!), so now I'm worried that the finale is going to throw all of my plans into chaos with some sort of difficult-to-work-around cliffhanger.

I never posted a link on LJ (though I did on Tumblr) for a Zoe Morgan/John Reese fic that wasn't written by me (I know!): A kiss can be even deadlier, if you mean it. PG, no real spoilers. It's funny and there's the tango.

fic for Battlestar Galactica: I'll post the author reveals tomorrow afternoon for the BSG remix. In the meantime, in addition to the remix written for me, y'all should read Family Matters (The Things Inside Remix). It's a remix of Nicole's Give You All. (My summary for Nicole's story: it's like Joss Whedon decided to write Kara/Lee fanfic. Everything you wanted in the worst possible way.) The remix still has the same dark premise--Lee has been taken captive on New Caprica by a Six--but now we see not only the Six's POV, but also Dee's. And it's fascinating and heartbreaking and a wee bit hopeful at the end. It's also long--about 30,000 words--but totally worth it.

livejournal stuff: Ugh, apparently they're redoing the scrapbook feature. And reducing how much memory we get, which isn't really an issue at this point (I'm waaaaaaaaaay below their old and new limits), but uploading pictures is currently not so easy. How am I supposed to have more pictures of pulchritudinous Jim Caviezel in my LJ if I'm having trouble uploading more than one picture at a time?

*cracks up* Thank you? (And seconding your rec for the remix, of course.)

It seemed like an appropriate comparison! (I sorta miss Whedon's episode commentaries--I'm pretty sure that's where I first heard that line about everything you wanted. No other show has had quite the level of excellent commentaries as Whedon's shows.)

Interesting article. I find that even for a heathen like me, most churches (and temples) end up feeling like sacred spaces. But then again, so do forests. And beaches. And mountains.

Awwww. Thanks for reccing my tango fic! *HUGE GRIN*

You have more pulchritudinous pictures of Mr. C? *tries to avoid making grabby hands* I don't know who it is that has a new icon with "vampire" Caviezel with a cane, but I really want to track down a full size copy of that photo.

I was thinking about the latest episode and the many pics I took of various moments--and how most of those moments somehow featured Reese. Yeah, can't imagine how that happened...

You mean this one?


eta: okay, since it's not showing up for me, the link is here: http://pics.livejournal.com/rose_griffes/pic/000w2qt8/g46
Arg, LJ, why 'fix' things that weren't broken?!

I saw them on Tumblr, and they weren't very good quality, so this is the biggest/best version I've seen. (And it makes me want to giggle far more than it makes me want to stare in an admiring way, but each to his own...)

(I like this one: http://naturepound.tumblr.com/post/21837564376)

Yes, that picture! Such a cool shot. I wonder what the photo shoot was for? It's so atmospheric!

And the second one must be around the time he filmed Bobby Jones, because he's still got some blonde highlights going on there.
