Key Canon for Ficathon Story
Saturday, March 29th, 2008 10:34 amI'm going over my femme_fic ("We Love Female Characters") ficathon story draft
one more time today, trying for as much polish as I can achieve before posting to the community this weekend. As part of that, I've just transcribed the key dialogue from those episodes on which the story most draws, including every word ever spoken by my favorite neck-of-the-week, the most canonically pertinent guest character we ever received (such that I am joking by lumping her into that category, naturally). The transcriptions below are exact; I did not omit even those lines that make me throw rolled-up socks at the screen, and you know these episodes have their share of those! But I love them anyway, as shown by the 14,000-word draft continuing them that I'm scrubbing right now, and striving to make evoke these very lines.
If I've written the story well, no one will need to rewatch any episodes in order to understand it. But reviewing FK canon is always a delight, right? ;-) I will get these quotations properly sorted into my FK Concordance after the ficathon story is on its way. (Gracious, but transcribing is so much easier with the DVDs than it was with tapes!)
Transcribed excerpts, in reverse chronological order:
( Crazy Love ) ( Fallen Idol ) ( Be My Valentine ) ( Near Death )
