Since I've discussed the current situation elsewhere, I'll just jump straight in and comment on your thoughts about the snippets, if that's all right. First off, though? You have no idea how grateful and happy I am that you have given these so much thought. :)
131: Haha! The original context did lead to some serious drama, but I love how silly it seems on its own, and I like the more lighthearted ideas you had. x'D
132: *blinks* Uh... I... did I miss something? xD; Is there a reason that random prompt got such a strong reaction out of you? For the record, I can't even find the story this line came from, so I don't know whether it's canon compliant or AU. I'm thinking AU, but given the lack of context, it could be either!
133: Originally, this one is from an AU piece. Botta is -- well, you can't really say he's "being paranoid" if it really is likely that the shadows are out to kill him, I guess. XD; He's unsettled, for very good reasons.
134: I'm honored and pleased that this excerpt had such an impact. I hadn't put it into words, but now that you say it, I recognize I was trying to create a stark contrast between the present and the past. Glad it seems to have worked. On another note, it's funny that you should mention Martel, because I too keep thinking the "she" in that excerpt is her. She's not the character I had in mind when I wrote this passage, but you know what they say: if the shoe fits...
136: ...Starting a conversation like that would probably be awkward anyway, no matter who they were talking about. XD Anyway, originally this piece comes from Osmosis, so I'll let you think about what that means and who they might be talking about. x)
137: Hahaha. The original context was far more innocent than what I can come up with now, but I'm glad your mind isn't as entrenched in the gutter as mine!
139: That's the question, isn't it? But I think that assuming he's trying to master his self-control makes sense. I think that's what I had in mind originally.
140: Haha. You know me and my love for hurting characters. It's true this is from an AU, but I'm curious -- what made you think it's AU? The mention of drugs or something else?
141: Hey, you never know, it might make sense he's not accepting whatever the other party is accepting. Like... I dunno. I think he'd have plenty of reason and the right to not accept it if someone decided to accept and embrace racism or homophobia or pangalactic war or whatever. XD
142: I'd say he had plenty of reason, but it might be interesting to explore the possibility that there was no real reason for such wanton destruction. Hmm. Plotbunnies!
