M7 Episode Discussions

[ithildin]

So looks like we're doing it :)

How about we start next Wednesday with the pilot?

And, since it might be fun, I've compiled a list of stats to go with each episode. There's lots of things that appear in fic that are mostly fanon, so I've included some of those so we can pick out the times those things actually occur [g]

What I have so far:

Number of times Chris laughs:
Colour of Ezra's coat:
Number of appearances by the 'Serape of Doom':
Times Ezra uses someone's first name:
Josiah 'son' & 'brother' count:
Times Chris isn't dressed all in black:
Times Vin eats:
Appearances of the 'magic sling':

Anything I should add?

Urg. I want to play, but I don't have the discs... :(

jinxed_wood may be able to help at least with the pilot according to her comment a bit farther down..

Supposedly TV Duck has them to view, but I've never heard of TV Duck, maybe it's like Hulu? Anyway, the site is here:

Kate did upload the pilot this afternoon: hxxp://www.megaupload.com/?d=672I7Q11

Oh hey, I thought I said "OH, PICK ME!" on the last thread, but alas I didn't. I'm game. I like the fanon -vs- canon thing. Neat.

[ithildyn.livejournal.com]

We received your mental transmission :)

Might be fun!

i just laughed out loud in my house, scaring my cats, when i read the list.

hilarious.

i don't know about anyone else, but i usually find continuity errors... and i just saw one in the pilot as i watched it again the other morning. maybe have an "ops" category for this type of thing?

it always interests me, but i'm odd like that. :D

[ithildyn.livejournal.com]

I love it when I cause cats to be scared [g]

Yes, I'll add an 'oops' category! Good idea!

[winks7985.livejournal.com]

woo hoo! i'm excited!

[jinxed-wood.livejournal.com]

I've got to ask - what the heck is the Serape of Dooom? Also, I have an MP4 of this episode on my hard drive and I was wondering if I should share so that people could refresh their memories? [Looks shifty]

[ithildyn.livejournal.com]

That horrible serape that Chris wears -- actually, I think he has two of them. Nin and I call it the 'serape of doom' [g]

Yes, a little refresher would be fabu!

[jinxed-wood.livejournal.com]

Ah, the poncho - all becomes clear!

And I'll upload the episode tomorrow for everyone's M7 enjoyment!

The Magic Sling of HP+10!

What every gunslinger needs.

Damn, now I want to play a wild west RPG...

[strangevisitor7.livejournal.com]

That makes the serape of Doom -5HP

[ninjababe.livejournal.com]

But, wouldn't the Serape of Doom be Strength +10?

Or, Accuracy +5?

:)

The real reason Ezra has a gold tooth! It's actually the fabled Gold Tooth of Luck+50!

Yes, I'm a DnD & RPG geek :)

[ithildyn.livejournal.com]

So what about JD's hat? Or Nathan's throwing knives?

[ninjababe.livejournal.com]

JD's Hat is the Bowler Hat of Cuteness +5

Nathan's Throwing Knives... Hmmm... The knives of Medical Knowledge +2 each? Since I don't remember him using them much?

Or, just normal magical knives of accuracy +2... never need sharpening, etc...

:)

[strangevisitor7.livejournal.com]

It would be but it is so ugly that it insights rage in his opponents.

SO is it time to recast the boys in the D&D AU

[ninjababe.livejournal.com]

But... That's why he has it, even if it is ugly!

And, no, I am not writing a story about Ezra's lucky tooth...

Oooo! The guys as DnD characters... Hmmmm...

Ezra would be a wizard... Ahhh! It just hit me! Ezra is a dark elf!

I can see Maude as a Drow matriarch.

Chris is a down-on-his-luck paladin. Who is questioning his faith.

Josiah is a cleric.

Nathan is a druid.

Vin is hmmm... a half-elf warrior type dude.

JD is a halfling who wants to be a warrior...

Who have I forgotten?

Oh! Buck!

Buck is a Conan the barbarian type guy... He gets all the girls...

Ooooo! Mary is an elf sorceress.

Judge Travis... he's a wizard on the wizard council.

Am I forgetting anyone?

[tygermama.livejournal.com]

Nettie is a priestess

Casey and Rain, but I got nothing there, sorry

I'm a DnD geek too!

[ninjababe.livejournal.com]

We need a barbarian woman... Just so we could have a Red Sonjia :)

Or, maybe a white mage, with a big ass hammer...

I can see Nettie as a priestess with a big honkin' flail or mace. She'd kick ass!

Casey as the barbarian woman?

Rain as a white mage?

[ithildyn.livejournal.com]

I know it incites rage in me [snicker]. It deserves many fashion citations! And I can't wait for one of us to have Charlotte burn them.

[ninjababe.livejournal.com]

But, wouldn't a Serape of Doom be Strength +10 be a rare item that shouldn't be burnt?

It's worth some money!

I'm very materialistic when it comes to video games. What is mine, is mine. What is yours, is mine, as soon as I steal it, or pry it from your dead, cold hands. :)

[strangevisitor7.livejournal.com]

I think we get Chris to sell it. because it puts the rest of his group at risk for additional attacks.

It is actually an evol serape that only gives the illusion of additional protection to the wearer

[ninjababe.livejournal.com]

Oooo! A cursed serape of personality -25!

Those are rare! Especially since you can't sell them to anyone who knows about the curse!!

They should make it a gambling winning for a rancher :)

[strangevisitor7.livejournal.com]

Exactly but you know Ezra will be able to unload it and turn a tidy profit. This is so silly and yet makes complete sense to me

[ninjababe.livejournal.com]

That's me in a nutshell... oh so silly, but making perfect sense... :)

I can see Ezra auctioning off the serape... and other things as well!

[strangevisitor7.livejournal.com]

Dude - that is a great idea - Charlotte forces Chris to get rid of them and buys him some brightly colored shirts. He accuses her of trying to turn him into Ezra and The rest of the boys tease him relentlessly about his fashion shift

[ithildyn.livejournal.com]

It's always been my goal for Charlotte to get rid of them. The srxy black duster, yeah, baby! Serape of doom and unfortunate colour choices? Not so much! I foresee Rufus the dog enjoying them as part of his bedding [weg]
