So a comment I wrote sorta turned into a ficlet and somebody suggested I bring it out here for easier access. I'm not a writer, so be nice, ok? It's just a ridiculous little thing.
No really, it's deeply silly.
Oh, and I think this can be considered mildly spoilery for Wilby Wonderful. And BSG. But, like, the mini.
(
But really, if you don't know a lot of CKR characters, this won't be any fun, so you can safely skip it. )

Oh, and "Mr. Lorne Greene" makes it art.
Am I the only one finds that Lorne Greene reminds me of Johnny Cash? And I love Johnny Cash, so that is meant as a compliment.

But ok, here's my little thing...remember when we started this conversation, in the CKR Dinner entry? I imagined a bunch of characters at the dinner, and then Zero comes and sneers and leaves immediately, but Newbie follows him. It struck me that Newbie would sniff him out as a TV character right away. That's what he knows --- that's sort of his special power.
So my premise was that Newbie, alone, has the meta. Newbie is the only one who knows that they're all characters and exactly who they are and their whole filmography and shit.
I might have thought about this a little too hard, considering how silly it is.

No, I can see it. Craggy face, deep voice, awesome 70s hair and manly sideburns...

You write good fic, my dear. Just accept it.
