[livejournal.com profile] serialkarma and I are trying to explain the lure of Alias, a show *I've* only seen a good dozen episodes between us, to [livejournal.com profile] issaro. And she, brilliant girl she is, had the presence of mind to ask the best question ever: What’s a Sark?.

Dude. I need that on an icon.

Not who or how, but *what* is a Sark? Yes, much laughter ensued. She then asked another great question: “What kind of name is Sark anyhow? It sounds like a new video game or some kind of file hacking program. Definitely could be a noun turned verb a la Buffy (off to Sark some bad guys). What kind of parents did this guy have? Or is it his last name? Or better yet, is he pulling an Indiana Jones and his real name is Rufus or something and he just wants to be cool?

*adores [livejournal.com profile] issaro*

Funny, yes, but also perfectly legitimate questions. I mean, who would Seth be if we only called him Cohen, or Sid? What about Lex if he was just “Luthor.". You see what I’m saying? A name is important, even if you lift it from the dog. Otherwise Sark is not just a name but a multipurpose word. Like Fuck.

In other news, it’s Ryan’s birthday. Did you know that? Celebrate, damnit!

It’s also the most magnificent, talented, slightly insane[livejournal.com profile] impudent_rabbit’s birthday. Celebrate, damnit!

The Coldplay video for ‘Moses’ has boy kissing. Yes, really. You can celebrate that, too.

quick qualification: I've been watching Alias since the beginning. I just figured out that Sark is not just sexy but Uber Sexy this season. I can catch you up on back story if you need it. But why bother? It'll just confuse you more.

Okay, so you are in the know, this is good, in case I decide to write Sark. Which I'm not. But if I do, I will come to you.

ah-ha!

notice how quickly she defended her alias know-how? *this* is what i meant about the dinner parties and the alias conspiracy theories and standing in the corner looking like a dunce.

i so don't need another fandom. lex is possessive of his fan girls i hear.

Wait. wait. Are you saying I make you feel like a dunce? Because no! Never, sweetie! I mean intentionally.

do you hear that? that laughter in the background is from the future, after you've become obsessed with Sark. in addition to the 1947943 other UberSexy, UberMorallyAmbiguous guys you are in a permanent relationship with.

I'm beginning to suspect that in order to be in a relationship of any kind with me you have to be morally ambiguous. And of course, pretty sexy. And devious. And clever. And intelligent. Yet loyal. No wonder the men I know can't quite measure up!
