well this sucks... And B5, which doesn't

[lizardbeth]

I was bidding on the tunic which JR Bourne was wearing when Martouf was killed that was up on ebay. I was winning the past two days, having -- I thought -- been crazier than outbid everyone else with what I was willing to pay for a torn shirt.

And then?

In the last two minutes of the auction? When I was off dealing with my tantrum-throwing child, no less? Someone swooped in and TOOK IT AWAY!

Well, I guess I won't be stalking JR to sign it after all. Bummer.

In other news, I spent much of my day watching B5. I realized I hadn't actually seen any of it for years and it might be nice to watch a few eps, since I'm writing the crossover crack!fic that has TAKEN OVER MY BRAIN.

Man, I still love this show. True, there are rough spots, and the effects are a bit primitive, but ... still. Sinclair PWNS. OMG.

I've figured out exactly how B5 and BSG 'verses work together. And I know how the Cylons fit into the Shadow War. And, and, it's all very exciting.

I'm just trying to decide how much AU for B5 I should go. I've always wanted to do, and have done bit of, Sinclair-stays-on-B5 in S.2 AU. But I don't know... too far?

As much as is needed. Yes.

I... should watch more B5. Like, y'know, the last four episodes I'm missing. Hrm...

hm. it can go either way -- either Sinclair stays (even more wacky AU) or he goes (follows in the footsteps of B5 canon, with a BSG twist).

Replicating B5 canon strikes me as kinda boring. I just don't know how far people are willing to follow, y'know?
