Oookay... Too many eps to go one by one. We just watched...Salvage. I think. Spoilers for season four following right here!!

I also wanted to do the Shakespeare meme. Seen everywhere. My favorite play has always been Romeo and Juliet - i read it dozens of times in seventh grade and dreamed up different endings whereby Mercutio lived and so did the young, dumb couple. Heh.
Mercutio was always my favorite, and despite the tragedy of it all, the humor of this play is my favorite part. So here follows a bit of snark between Romeo and Mercutio, and then Mercutio and the Nurse.

Act 2, Scene 4, Romeo and Mercutio )


Act 2, Scene 4 - Nurse and Mercutio )

Maybe it's seeing those scenes live, but it's wonderful, funny, and the slasy *!* energy between Romeo and Mercutio is lovely.


ETA: For those of you who'd love to read a twist on this tale, try Tanith Lee's 'Sung in Shadow'. A gorgeous re-telling with many twists and slashy overtones.
