out_therethese are just random SN notes I took the last time we watched S1. I found them in the back of my book and figured I might as well type them up.
Random SN notes:
General:
- According to Jeremy, the first show of Sports Night was screen 2 months, 2 years and a week before the The Pilot.
- When doing a 15 second promo ten minutes before the show, both Dan and Casey are at the desk to record it, and then sit there for until the show starts.
- Ad breaks are either two or two and half minutes back
- Casey and Dan have a bar fridge in their office, between the couch and the glass wall.
- SN crew are on the 49th floor, and Rebecca works on the 37th floor.
Dan:
- Likes dry martinis at the Oak Bar
- Calls Casey "Case" twice over the two seasons
- Calls Natalie "Nat" during Mary Pat Shelby and the following episode. (Nicknames seem to be used only when very concerned about the person.)
- Stayed up 72 hours straight for a biochem exam which he aced.
Casey:
- On air voice is slightly higher than off-air
- Has a Wyoming University sweatshirt (Probably his alma mater)
- Climbs at his local gym, which has a Class 3 Mountain (Dana refers to it as the "Big Apple Health and Racket Club" but I don't know if that's mockery, or supposed to be the actual name.)
Natalie:
- Has a Journalism degree from Northwestern
Jeremy:
- Mentions back home in Boston
- Is a "research analyst with a degree in Applied Mathematics"
- Has a deaf sister, Louise, who's a sophomore at University of Massachusetts - Amherst.
Dana:
- Wears glasses, and has been seen with two different pairs (one with black rims, one with brown-red rims)
- Smokes cigars
- Fears fish
Gordon:
- Worked for four and a half years on the Sammy Galino case (which fell through)

Re: Cupcakes Part 2
Date: 2004-05-29 05:45 pm (UTC)"Shouldn't you have your hand under cold water right now then?"
Aw, concerned-Danny! (And, um, awkward phrasing. Try moving the then to the start.)
"I would have understood," Dan insisted untruthfully as he ran the water until it felt cold enough to suit him.
*snerk* I like that. That Casey and Danny both know how annoyed Dan would be. It's just... sweet that they know that and accept that stuff.
"And to think you called me mom!"
"If the apron fits."
*giggles* Too cute!
"Cute?" Casey's voice really had a remarkable range. It was amazing how high it could get. Maybe it was the cold water affecting him.
*chuckles*
If you'd said it looked cheesy I would have understood that it was just you being distracted and substituting cheese for the right word."
"You're never going to let me live that one down, are you?"
Bwahahahahaa! Oh, I love the cheese jokes.
Dan could see Casey's mind whirring. It was actually visible in his eyes.
*snerk* The amusing thing is that sometimes it is visible.
And he needed Casey to call him on it someday, so he wasn't going to make the reasons too good or too convincing.
Aw! Have I mentioned how sweet and happy this fic is? Have I? Because it's so delightful, Signe.
And it was, not for the bricks and mortar, or whatever was under the plaster and paint, but for Casey.
Now I've got Danny in my head. Saying that he would tear down Rebecca's "wall of pain", that it was made of bricks and mortar and the third thing.
Dan wondered if it was time to say that. He almost thought it was.
After all, Casey had made him cupcakes, and that had to mean something.
Just adorable! *swoons*

I just re-read that phrase and cringed. See, that's why I don't write dialogue!
*snerk* I like that. That Casey and Danny both know how annoyed Dan would be. It's just... sweet that they know that and accept that stuff.
I'm glad you liked that, as it's the way I see them. I think Dan would mean well, but that he just wouldn't deal well with being kept waiting. But they've the kind of friendship that just accepts things like that.
Bwahahahahaa! Oh, I love the cheese jokes.
Not too obvious then? I imagine Casey bringing it up whenever it even vaguely fits the conversation....
*snerk* The amusing thing is that sometimes it is visible.
I think it is with both of them. And they both show their emotions a lot in their eyes. Which is one of the things I love about them.
Now I've got Danny in my head. Saying that he would tear down Rebecca's "wall of pain", that it was made of bricks and mortar and the third thing.
I thought I'd be a tiny bit subtle and not mention the non-existent third thing! *g*
I just can't believe you made me write something so totally, irredeemably schmoopy! About cupcakes! *is embarrassed*
