Torchwood 208

This was the "Owen-episode", a nice - but creepy - insight into his character. Creepy! Though I really liked the suicide-attemptee...

You know, TW is really chilling. Not their cases or the special effects - I'm talking about the show's vision of afterlife. There is no hope, just more horror and darkness. Just thinking about it gives me the creeps.

And I was idly browsing Amazon UK and when I stumbled across this TW tie-in, "The House That Jack Built" by Guy Adams. I really like the synopsis: Jackson Leaves: an Edwardian house in Penylen, built in 1906, semi-detached, three storeys, spacious, beautifully presented, and left in good condition to Rob and Julia by Rob's late aunt. It's an ordinary sort of a house... except for the way the rooms don't stay in the same places. And the strange man that turns up in the airing cupboard. And the apparitions. And the temporal surges that attract the attentions of Torchwood. And the fact that the first owner of Jackson Leaves in 1906 was a Captain Jack Harkness...

SGA fic rec!

Something that made me totally crack up!

GEN/SLASH/HET --> "Able to Zoo" by punk. Summary: Twenty-six stories about five or six people. Words: 2.700+.

Basically 26 drabbles ranging from funny to sad but there were some hilarious quotes!
- Rodney jingled angrily up the tower stairs.
- Rodney's cat was sitting in the tub beneath the leaking faucet. It glared at him, the top of its head all wet and spiky.
- "We will get lights on without him and he will sulk and call us funny names."
- "Oh yes," spat Rodney, "those wacky Ancients and their rainbow parties. Does it shoot out unicorns and cotton candy too?"

Go and read it, there's something for everyone!
