Question about my Lost Girl story Destiny?

I'd like to thank everyone who has taken the time to read my Lost Girl story Destiny. An even bigger thank you to everyone for your feedback and comments on the story, I really appreciate them all.

I thought I'd answer the most often asked question that you guys ask me - will there be a sequel?

The short answer is no, I don't have any plans to write a sequel - in the immediate future.

The long answer is, basically real life has been kicking my ass lately. While I have a whole bunch of ideas, my writing has taken a back seat.

Gladly though things are starting to settle down and I hope to be writing a whole lot more soon.

As I said I have a whole bunch of ideas, but none of them really fit as a sequel and I've decided to work on the ideas I have to see where they lead.

While I have no plans to write a sequel, I'll never say never because you never know what's going to pop into my head - the right idea might come along and hey presto....but don't hold your breath!!

Damned if they do, damned if they don't....

You know I don't envy the power's that be over at Lost Girl when it comes time to decide who will be with Bo at the end.

If they pair her with Dyson, people will say that they crumbled to the pressure and all those statements they made during the making of the show about acceptance and equality were just words.

But if they pair her with Lauren, some will say that they are pandering to the "gays".

Of course, they could not have her with either of them, in which case people will say they chickened out....

Nope, I don't envy them at all, good luck with that one guys....

Lost Girl - Destiny (NR-17)

Pairing: Bo Dennis/Lauren Lewis.
Summary: My take on the show. Bo and Lauren's destiny.
Lost Girl was created by Michelle Lovretta and is Copyright © Canwest Global and Prodigy Pictures.

* * * *

I'm meeting Dyson at the Dal to go over some information for my latest case. It's quiet tonight, with only a few of the regulars mingling.

As I make my way to the bar, I'm surprised to see Lauren sitting at one end engrossed in conversation with Trick.

Getting closer I can see a row of empty shot glasses sitting on the bar between them. I catch what Trick is saying as he pours another drink, “this is the last one Lauren, you need to go home”.

Picking up the shot glass, Lauren raises it into the air as if proposing a toast, “home sweet home.”

I catch Tricks eye as I sit on the bar stool next to the beautiful doctor, he gives me a pleading look as he moves away to serve another patron.

Since Nadia woke up, I haven't seen much of Lauren and I'm a bit taken back by what I see. Especially when she finally registers that someone is sitting next to her and she turns to face me, I almost don't recognise her. Her skin is pale, she has large bags under her eyes and her eyes, which are always so expressive, are empty.

At least she knows who I am, “well if it isn't my favourite succubus, hello Bo.”

"Hi Lauren.”

I indicate the collection of glasses in front of her, “so, you celebrating something?”

She looks down at the shot glasses and then back at me, “you could say that.”

Saluting me with the shot in her hand Lauren throws it back and then slams the glass down on the bar. The loud noise makes me jump.

Swivelling her chair around to face me, she grips the bar to hold herself up. “I thought I was just living my life, you know. Going along minding my own business.”

Leaning towards me she lowers her voice, “what a fucking joke that was huh.”

I've seen many sides to Lauren, but this is new and it's a little unsettling.

"What are you talking about?”

She continues on as though she didn't hear me, “I really am stupid, thinking it was all a big coincidence.”

Picking up one of the empty shot glasses, Lauren stares at it, “I should have known, should have figured it out. But I was too damn busy thinking I had something to save that I missed the big picture.”

She looks back at me, her eyes intense, “and then you came along and took my breath away.”

I reach out and take her hand, “Lauren, what's going on? I can help you, but you need to talk to me.”

She glances behind me and rolls her eyes. I turn around and see two of the Ash-holes goons heading our way.

Lauren suddenly stands and I grab her waist to steady her as she sways. Pressing herself against me, she talks low enough so only I can hear.

"I love you Bo, I always will.”

Her words make my heart swell and I can't help but smile.

"But you were right to choose Dyson. He can protect you, be everything that you need.”

Wait, what??

"Be careful though Bo, he knows more than he's telling you. And Trick, well he knows everything.”

She leans forward and brushes her lips against mine.

"Goodbye Bo.”

Lauren gets halfway to the two goons before turning around. Reaching up, she takes hold of her necklace and tugs at it, breaking the chain.

She walks back and hands it to me, “something to remember me by. You were right Bo, nobody owns me.”

As I look down to see the Ash's pendant in the palm of my hand, my confusion grows.

When I look up to say something to her, Lauren and the goons are gone.

Genius casting....James Bond

I think it was pure genius when they cast Judi Dench as M in the latest bunch of James Bond movies. I think having a female M makes a great contrast to Bond and Judi plays the role brilliantly.

Daniel Craig as Bond was also a genius piece of casting. He can play debonair, but I think he really excels as the rough and ready, action man Bond and I love it.

The Untitled Work of Paul Shepard

I recently watched the film "The Untitled Work of Paul Shepard" (TUWOPS) a movie by writer/director Jeremy Lalonde.

From the films IMDB page:
A documentary filmmaker turns the camera on himself to examine the modern day relationship using his own past relationships to guide him. As filming progresses his producer starts to question how much is fact and how much is fiction.
The film stars Kris Holden-Ried, Mary Krohnert, Christine Horne, Alex Poch-Goldin, Zoie Palmer, Tricia Braun and Pat Mastroianni.

I only knew the basics about this film before watching it, so I didn't really have any expectations. I found it well written and the whole cast were excellent. It's funny (Zoie Palmers character Haley's "job" had me laughing so much I had to pause the film) and well paced - definitely worth seeing.

Jeremy is currently working on his next film "Sex After Kids" which if TUWOPS is any indication, will be another great film.

TV: Continuum

So I have a new love in my life.

Yes, that's right I've fallen in love with yet another TV show - Continuum. It's a Canadian show starring Rachel Nichols, Victor Webster, Erik Knudsen and a whole heap of other talented folk.

From the shows official site:

Continuum is a one-hour police drama centered on Kiera Cameron, a regular cop from 65 years in the future who finds herself trapped in present day Vancouver. She is alone, a stranger in a strange land, and has eight of the most ruthless criminals from the future, known as Liber8, loose in the city.
Season 1 has a total of 10 episodes and lucky for all those that love the show, it's just been renewed for a second season.

The writing's good, the acting is awesome and the special effects are wiz bang brilliant.

LGBT flag waving: Kessler Velasquez Works movie makers

I'm all for showing support to the LGBT community, especially to talented types.

Piper Kessler and her partner are Kessler Velasquez Works. They are currently working on a feature film called Frequency - a Sci Fi film where lesbians are front and centre.

The story: In the world of "Frequency", individuals have the ability to “tune in” to a frequency, gaining them different skills. Most importantly, the girl gets the girl.
To help make the film they are running a funding campaign over at www.indiegogo.com.

I recommend heading over and checking it out and while you're there, open up your wallets and help them out to reach their target.

You can also find them here:

TV: Lip Service Season 2

I recently purchased Season 2 of Lip Service on DVD, in high definition Bluray in fact.

I LOVE this show - as with season 1 the writing is superb and the acting amazing.

Thanks to the interwebs I already knew what happens during the season, but even with the spoilers I loved it.

I wasn't disappointed with the departure of Cat, I didn't like the character once she turned out to be a cheating ho!!

Heather Peace was really given material to sink her teeth into and she was brilliant. Plus Lexy, played by Anna Skellern was a great addition to the show.

I haven't heard if there is going to be a season 3 but I hope there is because it's great to have such a well made show that features the lgbt community.

Oh, by the way, Heather Peace and the rest of the lovely ladies in high definition - OMFG....

Lost Girl: Season 3 airing

As you all know by now, season 3 of Lost Girl won't begin airing in Canada until January 2013 - yes I know, a whole 5 months away!!

Now having to wait so long to see the new season is going to be torture and personally I think it sucks. To me Showcase are taking it for granted that we all love the show so much that we'll put up with any crap they want to hurl our way.

If it wasn't for the loyal fans that have been spreading the love online, making Facebook and Twitter light up like Christmas trees I don't think the show would be as big as it is.

Lost Girl fans are a loyal, vocal lot who have given the show more free publicity and hype than any other show I can think of. So come on Showcase and The Powers That Be show us a little love in return.

Since season 2 finished in March (in Canada) there has hardly been anything coming from the makers of the show to keep the buzz and interest alive - no teasers (1 spoiler about Linda Hamilton guest starring doesn't count), no new cast interviews, no new cast photo's, not even a decent update of the official web page....

I mean there is 10 months without any new episodes - 10 MONTHS. The very least they could do is create some new promotional material to keep that warm and fuzzy feeling alive....

If it wasn't for the cast making passing comments on Twitter and Facebook about the show, you wouldn't even know they were filming.



Just why they're making us wait so long I have no idea, but Showcase have blathered on about how it will be worth the wait....yeah pal, it better be.
