Fever Dreams

Wow. Angel was very, very good tonight. But I am going to be very frustrated if they don't act upon what they figured out this week. Somehow I suspect they won't, I hate that part of Joss Wheadon's shows. When people act stupidly. I mean I don't always jump to it to get things done, but if I suspect something is wrong I get it checked out. That's why I went to the doctor when I felt bad rather than letting it slide. Nothing came of it and I intend to try some other courses of action. If they would at least put in a word about checking out what happened rather than appearing to ignore it.

Doctors and such

[(Anonymous)]

Don't get irked when fictional characters act like real people. You may hie yourself promptly to the doctor when something seems wrong, but that is not the way the whole world works. Far too many people put it off or ignore it for days ... weeks ... months ... thinking either whatever it is will get better on its own or that going in will just tell them something they *really* don't want to know and by not knowing it it will make it not be true. So (literarily and re: Angel) add in the "facts" that vames don't get sick and that there was the drug being injected by the critter so he wasn't operating at full capacity, and I don't think his inaction was all that egregious.
Interesting having Lindsay back. Dave and I were discussing what's up with him and Eve and we have several theories ... be fun to see what happens next! - Rose

What I mean is they seem to just forget. I could understand wanting to deny it, but they need to show the denial. How they explain it away or else that they are coming up short in verifying their fears. Something like that.
