Though it's rude to answer your own question, I've just discovered that it depends on the show in question, not the channel. Oh, right. That's something I've been annoyed about for years, apparently to no purpose!

Oh, well.

Sucking the bad breath out of someone = scary?

FAE = Farie + Fag + Gay

Almost worse than LICHEN (the evil moss creature, er ,werewolf)

I hate it when people take cool words and turn them into something else. As far as I know no one has done that with the word "Fae" yet, so hold your horses PN, they did it with Fairy but not fae yet.

Ep 2.04, Mirror, Mirror - that was a scary one! "When I found out about the Fae, I knew that had to mean Sasquatch, the Loch Ness Monster an' little Miss Piggy existed, but Baba Yaga, she can't, okay, she just can't!" But Kenzi proved once again just how brave and decent she is - first opting to go in Bo's place, belting Baba Yaga over the head with her own frying pan, then sending the three girls home when she and Bo could have just left them there...she rocks!

"You should see our Fae Sesame Street."
"Don't tease! That would be awesome!" - I agree!

2.05, BrotherFae Of The Wolves - so that's how Dyson first met the Norn!
I think Bo's going to be hurt all over again re Ciara, but I hope she'll be charitable about it.

Re last week's ep (2.06, It's Better To Burn Out Than Fae Away): well, how about that? Bo and Lauren have finally admitted they're crazy about each other and are back on, yay!

Except for the mysterious Nadia (and how the hell did the Morrigan know about her?) - here's my guess: terminally ill, on life support/in stasis, and Lauren's dependent on what we might broadly define as the Ash's charity re research to help/cure her. That's blackmail. He's a git. The last one was, too, though Lachlan's definitely worse. He's definitely heading for an epic vengeance beatdown delivered by Bo if he hurts either Kenzi or Lauren. Can't wait!

But I did like Lauren apparently developing a spine and talking back to the Ash. Go Lauren!

It seems they haven't had The Talk yet - they'll have to, though, now Bo knows about Nadia. Something else to look forward to...

I did like the revisit to the 'Bo's current squeeze stayed the night' scene - first Dyson, now Lauren!

And Kenzi & Hale were priceless as ever; Hale gives her a hangover cure, she asks, "Will you marry me?" and he immediately quips, "Nah, you drink too much." - it's moments like this that, for me, make shows like Lost Girl. "Would you like pancakes with your syrup?", indeed. Mind you, I once had a friend who liked coffee with her sugar. Go figure.

It was intriguing to find out a bit more about milady Morrigan, at last, but I have a query: according to Wikipedia her first name is Ebony, but when Bo found, and was nearly shot by, Jason, just before his meltdown, it didn't sound like that. I couldn't hear a 'b' sound, nor did their lips appear to form it - more like 'v' if anything. So what is her first name?

She is, however, as devious and callous as I've been writing her in my current fanfic (which, on my blood honour, I swear I wrote before I saw the ep!), which I found immensely satisfying. Go me!

The Morrigan's name is Evony, although I'm not sure if that is a first or last name.

BTW, I'm not going to spoil anything, but if you like Kenzi and Hale, you're gonna love Episode 9. And 17.

I was thinking there was another Lost Girl thread here somewhere, devoted to its airing now on Syfy, but I couldn't find it. In any case, Syfy has announced that they will continue with Lost Girl with no break. Season 2 episodes begin on April 16.

Good! Though it is getting a tad perplexing trying to juggle / decipher between the syfy & BBC shows.

'Evony'! Ah, thanks, I knew it sounded like that!

Hmm, I think I'll correct the Wikipedia entry.

And it's her first name; her full name is Evony Florette Marquis.

Just for fun, from my own fanfic Of Life & Death, Truth & Lies:

There came a sharp rap at the front door. Bo crouched defensively; Trick motioned her to be still and edged cautiously to the door. “Who comes without?”
"Without what?” asked a chirpy voice from…well, from without. Bo sagged in relief. “It’s Kenzi. Let her in, Trick.”

- this, to me, is pure Kenzi.

Well, I rather suspected foul, i.e. Fae, play re Nadia; how did she catch a Fae disease anyway? - answer, of course: she didn't. My first suspect for cursing Nadia: the Ash. What a devious, despicable way of recruiting someone; if he weren't lying in a coma, he'd be due for an epic vengeance beat-down! That's the sort of behaviour I'd expect of milady Morrigan!

And what the hell was with Bo in ep 2.08 (Death Didn't Become Him)? What was that?! (apart from cool, amazing and dowright scary!) Was there someone/thing else speaking through her? There have been hints as to her being special and unusually powerful, but nothing like that.

Oddly, I sort of predicted this in my fanfic, specifically Homeward Bound, And Back Again (fanfiction.net); the publication date proves I wrote this bit - the very last - before this ep was shown in the UK:

“Trick,” Lou Ann said quietly, “there’s something else. One of my talents as a midwife is to sense what abilities the newborn has. So I knew she was a succubus from the moment she opened her eyes,” she mused, “but...there was something more, something...different, strange. What is she, Trick?”
The same question had occurred to him more than once, of course. “To be honest,” he told her frankly, “I truly wish I knew.”

And Kenzi & Hale are keeping up the good work; I loved Kenzi's expression when she discovered how seriously ripped Hale is!

Things seem to be hotting up; if Lauren can break the curse and revive Nadia, where does that leave poor Bo? Sidelined by a beautiful woman, again? Not fair!

Unless they can share, of course...ooh!

As for me, my currently Lost Girl - obsessed muse will not leave me alone; I have Aftermath, Up, Up and A-Fae!, Vexed II: The Reckoning and Homeward Bound, And Back Again published on fanfiction.net; I've nearly finished Schooling A Succubus and have finished Of Life & Death, Truth & Lies. I even have two more (Fae-th, Hope & Charity and EmanciFaetion) in the works.

If it weren't for the fact that it's fun, I'd be pleading for some cure for writing fanfic!
