Touch him and you're dead.

I came back from the uni in time to see that today's TS episode was Second Chance- which means that we got to hear one of the best lines in TS - nd maybe one of the best lines ever [/drama queen] - from Jim himself:
Jim: *talking to someone who's threatening to hurt Blair* Touch him and you're dead.
*blink*
"Touch him and you're dead" - I'm not making that up, it's canon, it's protective!CanonJim. Isn't it just a beautiful line? Someone is threatening his man, and he's going all alpha *glassy eyes*
It's just too good to be true *purrs*
Oh, on another unrelated note. A new show is airing atm, The Guardian. I watched some episodes, and even though I know I'm not going to obsess over it, I like it well enough, and today's episode, "The Men from the Boys", was particular good.
I love how shows aren't afraid to deal with what used to be complete taboo: here we had a young boy living in the street after he fled from different foster homes where he got raped on a regular basis, and whoring himself to survive. His only hope is to be fostered by a gay couple, but of course, prejudice being so strong, no judge (even a gay one btw) wants to accept it. In the end, it's only because Nick decides to fuck the law that Ethan can live decently and can hope for a happy future with the - very loving - couple.
Ethan's mom was particular disgusting. Her husband kicked their son out of the house when he learnt he was gay, and she never tried to have him back. Oh well, yes, she said Ethan still had a home if he forgot his bad habit. And when she finally decided to interfere in his life, it was to ask that Ethan would NOT be fostered by the gay couple because she didn't want him to live with *that* kind of people. The worse is that she claimed to love her son - and to be a good Christian as well. Really sad person.
Speaking of Nick. He seems like an interesting bloke, but he just looks so sad all the time.
Anyway, I will have to see where the other episodes lead me *g*

I see what you mean for QaF- never really felt the craving to look for fics, but then, slash is usually here to fill a lack in m/m hotnestt, and uh- it's sorta the whole purpose of QaF, right? lol But then, I have to admit I got into the Oz fandom, so I'm contradicting myself a bit. Let's say I'm a contradictory person, and everyone will be all right lol
