/report!: special guest, hoyden!

[rageprufrock]

Welcome back to yet another week of /reporter-y goodness with thehoyden as a special guest. This week we talk about how our tentative quality rating on NCIS this week, discuss keeping boys as pets (what else are you going to do with them anyway?), yammer on about Sherlock, and discuss our ongoing Why Are We Even Dating You Anymore relationship with Hawaii 5-0.

To tune in, click here!

Also! Don't forget that next week we will be recording our first ever Author Talk with thehoyden, so please send us questions you've always wanted to ask her -- about life, the universe, writing, what her hopes and dreams are, why she hangs out with us losers -- to our twitter account or email us at slashreport at gmail.com.

It's hard to do this fic challenge without giving away anything about what fic it is - uh, I once read one where it starts out with the main character saying, 'well, [love interest]'s pet's ugly, but HE'S cute'?

OH MY GOD, I never realized that Tony from NCIS was Logan from Dark Angel. I- what have I been doing with my life? Clearly, I should watch the first season of NCIS.

H50 gets more ridiculous by the episode, but everyone needs to see Steve's gratuitous MMA fight in this week's ep for shirtless Steve and hovering nanny Danny. How much makeup do they have to put on Alex O'Laughlin to get his tramp stamp to disappear, though?

I am totally going to watch Captain America this week and figure out how to make him Tuxedo Mask 8|

I freaking loved Dark Angel back in the day (I refused to watch Firefly for ages because my tween self was so bitter over the cancelling of DA), and was in so love with Michael Weatherly for the first season. However, I must admit Logan got too self righteous for me in the second season, so he got thrown over for Jensen Ackles (I am weak to the pretty). But then when NCIS came out, it rekindled my love for the actor, and I think he is awesome again.

You guys are making me want to watch the newest season, instead of the random episodes that are airing in NZ at the moment ;-;

How do you feel about the sort of fanon that becomes stuck in everyone's mind?

I was reading a BBC Sherlock fic and someone used a different than-normal first name for Lestrade and I was confused at first until Google kindly informed that no, they have never told us his name is Greg. Just seems that everyone THINKS it is.

Also, love the /report.

I want to thank you for /report! I just had a 6hr there-6hr back car trip to take, and I purposefully saved the last 9 reports just for this drive. Which was wonderful since I was exhausted on the way back and listening/laughing with you all kept me awake and entertained!

I've now promised myself I'll catch up on Fringe (so I don't have to keep turning down the volume during those parts) and watch The Good Wife (looked up the scene Pru talked about and DAMN) and find that awesome manga/J-drama!

Excited to look up that manga and those podcasts!

Also, would love to hear you all talk about AUs or common wonderful tropes like getting trapped in the closet or more gender swap!

Wonderful show again!

Hi, hi! I've listened to all slash reports within the past two weeks while doing a giant art project and I have thoroughly enjoyed them. Also, I have now watched Suits and am currently watching The Good Wife 'cause of y'all. So thanks for that. ;) Anyhoo.

Okay, so I totally understand mklutz's Kdrama rule and I generally follow it myself, seeing as I've only ever finished three Kdramas ever and started about fifteen. -__- Nevertheless, one of my favorite shows ever in the world is a Kdrama called Coffee Prince, which, if you have not heard of this show, then someone somewhere is seriously failing in recommending quality stuff to you guys. It is seriously one of the greatest things ever. It is about this tomboy (Eun-chan) who works a lot of jobs to help her family out, who meets this rich dude (Han-kyul) on one of her jobs, and he mistakes her for a boy. His mother and grandmother have been setting him up on dates which he hates, so in order to avoid them he pays Eun-chan to pretend to be his boyfriend. Amazingness ensues, stuff happens and then he eventually starts up a coffee shop and only hires attractive boys...including Eun-chan. XD She doesn't correct him because she really needs the money and kind of doesn't care anyway. Well, at first. Beause then they fall in love and Han-kyul still thinks she's a guy. It is magical. Like, I expected it to cop out and...well, I don't want to spoil it, but it totally doesn't cop out. It plays out pretty much exactly how I wanted it to, only it is probably a hundred times better than you are imagining. It's truly a thing of beauty.

Also, Kim Jae-wook from Antique is in it, and he makes waffles and is pretty much the lead girl's bff and it is beautiful. That alone is reason enough to watch it. And now I am going to stop rambling on about a show that you may have already seen. :3

I really really want to read that manga! I couldn't find it, though, how do you spell it?

Hey! I've been listening through your back catalog the past few days, and really enjoyed it. My internet access is sketchy, so I'm not up to date on a lot of the shows you're talking about, so I've been trying to wait to listen until I've seen all necessary episodes but I finally caved on Monday and just started listening. It's been fun. :)

I read the NHL fic you recced and loved it! I have no idea who these people are but they are ridic and in love! :D I can feel myself being drawn into a dark vortex and I really really want to fall into it.

Also, the talk of m.a.d. / bombing people with furry porn tagged "BABIES" and "PINING" and "SENTINEL AU," and also, "BABIES," reminds me of something Pru said in an earlier podcast (which one it was I don't recall), to the effect of "I haven't written a sequel (to (Un)Covered) because all it would be is them getting married and having babies and living happily ever after, and no one wants to read that." So anyway where I'm going with this is, if that is really the only reason, I would just like to raise my hand to say I would read the shit out of that. Like. If supposed lack of interest was your only reason. Just to let you know. I would read it and love it. I want Gibbs and girl!Dinozzo to have all the happiness and all the babies, forever and ever, plot-what-plot.

That's probably the easiest way to bomb me with furry porn, actually, just tag it "Gibbs/girl!Dinozzo," "domestic bliss," and "BABIES," and I would click it so hard. And that's in this fandom, where something labeled like that is depressingly likely to include surprise!Deep-Seated Authority Issues discipline and punishment play in the basement.
