OK. Both I suck, and Time Warner Cable sucks for leaving me without internet for most of the day. Anyway.

For May 8, the challenge is to make an icon or banner for an XF fic. The fic doesn't need to be posted on Dreamwidth, but your icon or banner should. It doesn't have to be a fic of your own, or have to have been posted on Dreamwidth.

For May 9th, the challenge is to play in a game of XF Fight Club. (I have cribbed this game, in altered format, from the LJ community [livejournal.com profile] rememberlaura; all props go to [livejournal.com profile] icedteainthebag for inventing it, or at least putting it into my field of vision. Check it out as they play it here.)

Here's how to play:

1. Post a comment initiating a fight. Basically, you should propose two (or more) characters, episodes, scenarios, props, or other nouns-of-some-sort from the series that you want to have duke it out for victory, and also specify the category. Such as:

Freakiest Mutant: Flukeman vs. The Manbat
Liquid You Would Least Like To Encounter: Black Oil Vs. Scary Green Alien Blood Vs. Monkey Pee
Most Inappropriate-Yet-Hot Kiss: The Red And The Black Vs. The Truth

2. Comment on threads supporting your preferred position. As [livejournal.com profile] icedteainthebag says, "Propaganda, vote rigging, bitching, infighting, slurs, anger, mudslinging, macros, and polite discussion are welcome." (Let's try to have two basic principles: 1) Do not actually insult your fellow players, and 2) Assume that things being said are being said in good humor. Let's try not to create a wankstorm.)

3. In tomorrow's post, I will announce THE WINNERS based on number of comments on each side.

4. Points: you get 3 points for initiating a fight, 2 points per comment contributing to it, and, as always, you max out at 10 points.

The game will end...well, when I post the tallies tomorrow, so around 24 hours from now. Assuming the cable gods are with me. *shakes fist*

I would argue that Krycek kissing Mulder is the most inappropriate kiss. I remember thinking that it seemed to come out of left field (no slash glasses here, sorry). On the other hand, Mulder kissing Scully after being reunited seemed appropriate, even expected. If you think you are going to be executed at dawn, kissing the woman you love is what you do, because you might never have another chance.

As far as hotness, goes I think the Mulder/Krycek comes up short. It was a kiss on the cheek, it was entirely one-sided as far as I could tell. If Krycek had kissed him on the lips...

The kiss in The Truth was smoldering hot, objectively speaking. They looked like they were into it. They looked like they had their tongues shoved down each other's throats, frankly. Good acting, no doubt.

Hot as that kiss was, I thought the hand-kissing was even hotter. I LOVE hand-kissing. There should be more of it in fanfiction.

I don't even know if I could call The Red and The Black kiss hot, it was just so wtf. And I had slash goggles implanted in my eyeballs so I wouldn't have to waste time putting them on. But that kiss. wtf.

I vote for The Truth, mostly because poor Skinner is standing in the background with nothing to do.



I feel uncomfortable for Skinner, which in turn makes me feel uncomfortable for watching them myself.

I'm not sure if I get the concept on this one until I see it played out, but I'll give it a shot:

Funniest Song Moment: Scully (Joy to the World [Jeremiah Was a Bullfrog]) vs. Mulder (Theme from Shaft) vs. Reyes (Whalesong)

From: [personal profile] heartequals


ahahaha holy shit I was just about to ask this EXACT question. I'm gonna throw my weight behind Mulder because Scully's performance was more cute than anything and I'm not sure how intentionally Reyes' whalesong was supposed to be. If I could be sure that it was totally just CC dicking with us then yeah, Reyes all the way, but she's just so damn earnest!

Worst Mulder family death: Samantha vs William vs Teena vs Fox
wendelah1: (But he was dead Mulder!)

From: [personal profile] wendelah1


Well, worst in what sense? Worst written? Samantha's death wasn't proved, was it? Starlight? Disappearing from a locked room is totally bogus (how do you do that, by the way? Lock a room in a hospital from the outside? Improbable if not impossible.) so that's questionable to begin with. Teena Mulder committed suicide for no very good reason that I can see, but she did stay dead. Ditto for Bill. Of course, why was he killed? I mean, why then? Why not years earlier, say when he voted against the project? Still and all I vote for Fox because he died, was buried and and then came back from the dead! Which was the cheesiest do-over in tv history in my humble opinion. I hate fake deaths that put the viewers through a wringer for nothing.

Fox Mulder, because he didn't just die and come back from the dead once, he did it multiple times: "The Blessing Way," "Gethsemane" (okay, he faked his own death, but still), "Monday," and, well, the aptly titled "DeadAlive." It reminds me of something I read on Television Without Pity: "Do you remember that time Mulder died? Or that other time Mulder died? Or that other other time Mulder died?"
