Brief Nip/Tuck thought

[rivkat]

While I struggle with the last 500 words of my Yuletide story ...

I am told that the executive producer of this show is a gay man. I wonder, then, why the average gay man on the show is a murderous queen? I hate to buy in to crude "images of" analysis, and as geekturnedvamp pointed out to me, everyone's fucked-upness on this show is connected to their sexuality, but it still feels icky to me to have all the gay characters (except Liz) be vile along with all the straight ones (except Kimber).

It wasn't crazy murder, it was premeditated! (Premeditation can happen really quickly, as it obviously did here.) She didn't need to do it and she lett Matt talk her into it (he's a murderer too, like his mom).

Ava killed her son! And left him to rot! I can understand affection for her, though, especially for the way she fucked with Julia's head.

Technically, he stabbed himself, but Ava certainly drove him to it by molesting and abusing him all those years.

I think LJ is messing up with sending comments again, so I'm reposting from my LJ to make sure you see it. - I still haven't received your story at either address. Maybe you could try sending it from another of your addresses and see if that helps at all? I'm sorry about all this trouble! If you need to find someone else to beta whose email is more compatible, that's fine. I know you're on a time crunch. I'm happy to do it if you want to try again though.

She also did nothing to help him when she might have tried to save him -- but why should that day be any different from the rest of his life?

I got the story in, so don't worry about it. Thanks for your willingness -- I really don't know what happened.

Totally!

Sorry I wasn't able to help with the story. I'm glad you got it finished in time. :)
