A Ripper of an idea

[lyore]

I return to LJ after my brief flirtation with Real Life - but alas, our time together might be short, for I fear RL shall soon raise its ugly head once again.

Or, in other words, I'll be around for the rest of this week, but may be internet-less for the week after that.

Once again, I have given up on my foolish fantasy of catching up on my flist - I think I caught the main points on my (very) quick skim through, but if I've missed anything let me know.

What I did find in my meanderings was confirmation from Joss himself that the Ripper spinoff is still on the cards, in a TV-movie format. This is brilliant news - of all the spinoffs I would have liked to have seen in the Buffyverse, this was always number one.

Also: anyone on my flist got any good links to either a) HP AU fics where Harry is raised by Sirius (yeah, I know, but I'm on a HP AU kick at the moment) or b) any good John H/C stuff (Farscape), light on the smarm? I know it's probably an odd combination to be craving at once, but I am.

The Ripper spinoff has me so excited I cannot even tell you. Badass!Giles should totally rock.

I know! I really, really want to see where they go with this - I'm hoping for a mixture of bookish!Giles and badass!Ripper, cause the dichotomy is just so cool.

I still cant believe that there is an IT nerd abbreviation for real life.

This is an Internet Geek abbreviation, not an IT Nerd one. An important difference.

And there is an Internet Geek abbreviation for everything. We have to reduce the amount of typing we do somehow!
