Allow me to get in touch with my feminine side for a moment... So I'm reading along through Vanguard: Harbinger (great book, by the way), and I come across a paragraph where Kirk beams down with two redshirts: Scott Danes and Luke Patterson. For those of you too cool for Gilmore Girls, see this for reference: Scott/Luke. Mr. Mack quickly proceeds to have one of these two characters violently dispatched. I showed this to my wife, a huge GG fan, and she was very intrigued. So the question is: Is the appearence of Danes and Patterson an admiring homage to Gilmore Girls, or a clever denouncement of the show/character?
