Scarab, your first post here is to criticize a contributing member of Dark Angel Reflections. That is not a good way to introduce yourself.
We are discussing fan fiction. This is not real life. Please do not turn this into an argument about whether Logan should stay in the chair or walk. That is a personal preference.

Well this thread is certainly getting interesting. Keeping in mind that I've only watched Dark Angel up to Art Attack and never actually saw the exoskeleton (I plan on watching more episodes, it's just that I have to borrow my friend's DVDs. I saw the first few episodes on Space Network then was unable to catch the rest of them) but in my opinion the character of Logan should have remained in the chair. In fact, I think everybody should be in a wheelchair, dammit! Oh, wait, who could I ask to get things off the high shelves, then? Come to think of it, if everybody were in wheelchairs, there wouldn't be high shelves. Okay, now I'm getting silly. Sorry.

Well, not really silly. It was um - um more like, um okay, it was silly. It made me laugh anyway. Why aren't I sleeping.

I do remember that Logan wasn't originally supposed to be in a wheelchair and that Max and Logan were just supposed to be friends, but, that changed after the producers saw Michael and Jessica's chemistry. It's been a long time and we've discussed so many things over the years that I cannot remember how that rumor got started. (I wouldn't be surprised if I started it. If you go to this site www.hundland.com/scripts/DarkAngel.txtand read the script written in 1999, before Michael and Jessica met at the audition, you will see that Logan was in the chair. TWO MONTHS LATER
INT. LOGAN'S APARTMENT - DAY
Logan in a wheelchair at his computer console, as he finishes pixelating his next computer hack to obscure his identity.
LOGAN (V.O.) This has been a Video Free America bulletin via the Eyes Only Informant Net... Peace.
He senses something and turns his wheelchair to see Max.
MAX See you're back and still rocking the boat.
LOGAN Somebody's got to.
He just looks at her, then after a beat--
MAX I would've come sooner, but...I didn't... How're you doin'?Some major changes from this script to the working script they finally used. It was so very cool how Max was in that scene. She was so accepting of Logan's disabiity from the beginning. I remember the end of the pilot, seeing it for the first time. I had been watching with about 24 others, we all just stared at each other and didn't start talking right away. It was so satisfying. (Well, all except one and he was soon out the door.) Sighhhhhh. OMG, I can hear everyone now, saying, "Is she going to start all that again.

Even if it's just a really short version? Or maybe PM me if nobody else wants to hear it again. If you don't want to, no problem. You just piqued my curiosity.

I don't mean to interrupt any conversations, but I was wondering if anyone knew the exact locations of the different sectors and what is in them. For some reason that stuff never sticks in my head, and I can't remember which episodes mention a lot about the sectors. I know either Meow or AJBAC mentioned where Logan lived, but for the life of me I can't remember anything else. Can anyone help me? Please?

Hi Be Boring, you are not interrupting. It is Dark Angel after all. This is a sector map that L-SQUARED made back in the day. edited to include Max's sector pass.

Let's not forget Logan's medical file for 1.14 "Female Trouble" showing his birthdate. I'm sure this will assist fan fic writers and beta readers.

hi im new here and have been working on a couple of fics and could really use a beta.thank's Welcome! What sort of beta-ing do you need? Just for a general overview, or specific things? (like spelling/grammar, or for staying true to the TV show, if that's needed...) How long are your fics? (some of us have time constraints that we are ignoring to play here anyway... ) ...or am I overthinking this?? ;D At any rate, it's always good to seek a second opinion!! Anyway, welcome and happy writing! ~ ~

hi im new here and have been working on a couple of fics and could really use a beta.thank's Welcome. I am sure you will get plenty of offers from people wanting a look at new fics. Feel free to try a couple and see who is a good fit. Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. I myself have access to several versions of Word and am pretty handy with "Track Changes" ;D I am pretty sure I would catch continuity slips (I have a huge list from Season Two) but some grammar may slip past. I am still working on it myself, apparently I have 'comma issues' Whatever that means.) Bottom line: Feel free to send copies to several people. You may not going to get much more than "Cool! More!!" back from some of them. I can accept .doc .txt. and .rtf files. What sort of beta-ing do you need? Just for a general overview, or specific things? (like spelling/grammar, or for staying true to the TV show, if that's needed...) How long are your fics? (some of us have time constraints that we are ignoring to play here anyway... ) ...or am I overthinking this?? ;D At any rate, it's always good to seek a second opinion!! Anyway, welcome and happy writing! ~ ~ You overthinking?! Plus you forgot to ask about file format.
