seriousfic: (Barda is not the world's best cook)
On Scans_Daily, I recently opined that the best part of DC's 90s "look! look! we have girl characters!" mini-crossover was that Scott Free was turned into a parrot, both because it fits into his innate love of freedom (even though it was probably just a parrot because it went with his costume's color scheme) and because it paved the way for Barda the Pirate.

DID I LIE, F-LIST? NO, I DID NOT.

A kind soul by the name of [livejournal.com profile] gargoylekitty illustrated this scene. The results were both classical and provocative, I think you will find.



By plank, she means Mega-Rod.

And now, as inventor of the concept of Barda the Pirate (BlackBarda?), I feel the need to invent for her a backstory.

Lady Barda: Oh Scott, beloved husband, I have washed my hair and accidentally, yet strategically, ripped my nightgown during fencing duels with the ladies. Are you prepared for marital bliss?

Lord Scott: A witch doctor turned me into a parrot.

Lady Barda: NOT. ON.

Since she didn't trust the British Navy to rescue her beloved from parrotness (they're no Spanish Armada, after all), Barda turned pirate to find a cure for Scott and because it's fun. Truly, no woman before in the annals of history has gone through so much to get laid FOR LOVE.

ETA: Speaking of S_D, it's not a party until Gail Simone shows up. So glad I didn't say anything bad about her...
