aunt_zeldaSorry I've been so absent of late, guys. After the play ... well, school seemed to get instantaneously busier. I HATE dashing from one class to another and being so frenzied that what I WANT to do (i.e. watch and review TV episodes, type Shakespeare stories, write fanfic, reply to comments, etc.) gets crammed into impossibly short periods in which I am, more often than not, waylaid by tvtropes.org and distracted from my personal writings.
Anyhoodle, the Lost WAZTs are coming, I have two-thirds done already (though they aren't as in-depth as this one, see again 'pressed for time') and am making good headway on various personal writings of my own. However, due to the sheer ferocity and insanity that has become my schoolwork, expect my updates to be few and far-between until further notice. I mean, the WAZT will be prompt (ish) and there may be some sparse fanfic here and there, but I simply DO NOT HAVE TIME.
And I hate it. I'm sorry. I miss all of you. I wish I could be lazy again. But I can't. Even now, there are four different things pressing into my over-wrought brain. Not to mention that That-Guy seemed a tad too familiar with A-Girl over the weekend, and spurred such overwhelming feelings of jealousy that I had to leave the room for fear that I'd bash the poor woman over the head with ... something. I despise jealousy. 'Tis a feeling I've rarely felt. That outbreak over the weekend gave me a rather scary insight into Othello, however, which is fortunate, as I'm expected to write an essay on the play soon. (Gah, Iago is so EEEEEEEEVIL! It was so insanely fun to read his parts!)
Anyhoodle, this is the WAZT for 'Cold Snap:'
(aka: Bryan Fuller returns and wows us once again, shaming all the previous - if fantastic in their own right - episodes of this volume with his comeback episode.)
Previously on Heroes... there is no previously on the version I'm watching! NOOO!
First off, Governor Danko shaves ... dramatically. I liked this scene better in S1, when it was Sylar doing it. I do not feel comfortable with the camera this close to Zeljiko Ivanek's face. He is not a comfortable person. No offense meant to Mr. Ivanek (dude, I wikied your name to make sure I spelled it right, I don't even do that for Sendhil) but seriously, form a club with Evil Eric Roberts and scare the planet into your control or invent the segway or something.
Hearing his robotic security system announce that the front door is open, he wipes the shaving cream off of his face, grabs a gun (wow, is his house like the Punisher's or something?! Has he got guns and knives stashed all over the place in case a giant freaky semi-Russian assassin bashes in through the wall?!) closes the door, and finds ... Doyle, strung up like a marionette (not strung up as in ... just suspended in the air, ok, with rope and stuff. He's alive) with a big red bow tied across his chest. I admit it. I laughed for the rest of this scene. As creepy as that was, it was HI-LARIOUS and means that Sylar is going for more dangerous and foe-yay-licious boyfriends these days. I hope he still has room in his heart for his Momo, though, because if he doesn't, I might leave the SARMY.
Rain. Traffic-jam. NYC. (I might go there in a few weeks.) HRG races into a cab to meet with Angela, soaking wet, because Spy Daddy forgot an umbrella. Angela says this will be their last meeting, it's getting too dangerous, and is a tad uneasy with having all her hopes riding on a man too distracted to bring an umbrella on a day like this, or use a Creepy Close-Up Razor of DOOOM. She then laments (heh heh) that it's terrible to have to give up family for what they're doing. I dunno ... I'm sure some of you out there miss all the Petrelli Bad Touch shenanigans, but I for one welcome actual spy work, unhampered (kind of) by family intrigues. Blah blah, spy banter. Angela thinks that Nathan will forgive her, but that Peter has said his farewells. (Nice twist!) She tells HRG to get Danko to trust him, by giving him 'one of us.' HRG smiles at being included. Angela suggests REBEL, and hands over her umbrella. "Don't say I never did anything for you." Heh. Noah tells her not to go home. "Don't say I never did anything for you." Hee ...
At the He-Men-Mutant-Haters Headquarters, Danko leads Mohinder (uncuffed, I might add ... sorry, girls) into a room full of drugged heroes (and villains, I suppose.) We spot Matt and Daphne. Mohinder is bitter. Danko says it's 'gun control.' *kaSNORT* Mohinder finds Daphne, says she needs to go to an emergency room (WTF, show? NOW you decide to be semi-realistic with gunshot-wounds? CHOOSE A SIDE! It's Firefly vs. magical soap opera land, mmmmkay?) Danko says he didn't bring Mohinder to help Daphne ... he brought him here because it was easier than carrying him. Then a Mook tazers Mohinder and hooks him up to the drugs. OOOOOOooooooo! BURN! (And very, very scary. Danko is a bit of a sadist. *files that away for future ficcage*) Danko orders his Mooks to "make up a bed for Miss Strauss."
Cut to Tracey, in her Cell of EVIL
Heroesclipse!
Danko and HRG have dialogue that, in more casual circumstances, could be construed as flirtation. Danko claiming that he caught Doyle by being "smarter than the average bear" made me LOL and is not to be missed. Then HRG offers a plan to get REBEL ... and then I see Noah Gray-Cabey's name flutter across the screen and I SQUEAL. More banter. Swoosie Kurtz's name flickers across the screen as well, and I keel over in shock and awe.
In
Angela, still stuck in traffic, has a useful precog-dream. Seconds later, it happens, but the agents waste time manhandling her driver and give her a chance to escape. (It seems that her power would only be useful if one could take naps, and since I can't really take naps unless I'm sick, in a play, or on a long, long road trip, I can't say I fancy Angela's power.) Angela slowly walks away from the limo, finds a guy with an umbrella, and cutely and badassley gets a cover to walk away with him from the scene, looking from behind like a non-suspicious couple. HA HA HA! Angela makes flirting her way under an umbrella with soaking hair BADASS! The He-Man-Mutant-Hater's club will never ever catch her!
REBEL shuts down the HMMHC for a while, letting Tracey out and guiding her into the room where all the heroes (and villains) are being kept. She wakes up Mohinder, then Matt, dismisses Daphne as someone who will 'slow them down' and leaves without the gang. Guards burst into the hallway, but Matt (carrying Daphne in his arms, with Mohinder - superstrength man didn't offer to carry her? Oh, wait, he wouldn't carry the girl who stole his man from him, nevermind ...) Jedi-mind-tricks them away.
Danko tells HRG that an escape like this won't be allowed again and says that if Tracey leads them to REBEL: kill them both.
Later, Tracey shoplifts using her power to freeze those alarm strips. Heh. She gets silly stiletto heel boots for shoes though, stupid woman. You have nitrogen powers, not super-feet! HRG slips into the changing room, and the two of them have awesome, incredibly tense banter with almost claustrophobic camera work, waving off the attendant rather cutely, and Tracey agrees reluctantly to lead HRG to REBEL in exchange for a chance to run.
Matt storms a hospital with Daphne in his arms, spins a rather convincing lie, and gets the doctor to NOT report the gunshot wound to the police. Mohinder looks sexy and worried. Matt just looks worried. GAH, I usually hate hospital dramas, but if Dr. House is around the corner, I'm willing to suffer through this plotline ...
Hiro wants to take Oswald away. Ando thinks this is a little extreme, and what about the kid's mommy? Hiro says they'll leave a note, calling Oswald 'Baddo Baby' for making all the toys turn on and make loud noises. Hee. Oswald's toddler years are gonna be HELL for Janice, or whoever has custody of him at that point. It could be the ménage á trois joint effort of Monica, Doctor Who, and John Locke for all I know. Ando calls Hiro out on his childhood issues. *wibbles* (I don't think I would have SURVIVED if George Takei/Sulu/Kaito was my daddy. Just sayin' ... perhaps we should be a little more understanding of poor Hiro's numerous pitfalls on his Hiro's journey?) Oh my god. Hiro didn't tell Ando about meeting his mommy during the time-travel, and her dying in his arms. *wibbles majorly* They bicker about crying and not crying and don't you cry or I'll cry too and I sniffle in the background. Then Janice arrives! Hiro and Ando hide behind the stuffed animals in a clumsy, silly homage to E.T., my least favorite movie in the universe. (Ok, ok, not my least favorite, but it traumatized me as a child just the same.)
Micah (guys, it's totally Micah. I haven't even SEEN HIM and I know it's Micah) manipulates an ATM (HURRAY FOR CALLBACKS!) into giving Tracey money, and a message on her recipte. There is no other word for that other than: COOLIO.
Tracey gets a cab ... and then TallerGhostWalt ... I mean, MICAH with a broken voice and a haircut, calls a cab as well. Tsk, tsk, my dear. If you can MANIPULATE MACHINES, do so from BEHIND THE SCENES. Especially if you ARE NOT YET OLD ENOUGH TO SHAVE and ON THE GOVERNMENT'S MOST WANTED LIST.
Then Angela stops in for some lunch with Aunt Lily. Even though she's not wearing an eye-patch, has more eyeshadow on than a raccoon at a rave, and is unaware of Angela's hero-ness, it's Aunt Lily just the same. I watched the whole scene and did not stop to type until it was over. That is how much I love and respect Swoosie Kurtz. She is awesome. She has the potential to be even more badass than Angela herself. She gives Angela her money and lets Angela steal her umbrella. Heh heh YAY and SQUEE!
It was a dark day indeed when Pushing Daisies was cancelled ... but for we Heroes fans it was also a bittersweet day. We did indeed get Bryan Fuller back ... and now, it seems, we got Swoosie Kurtz too! Huzzah! *huggles the Pushing Daisies DVD sets I wish I had*
Janice gets things explained to her by Ando and Hiro. The only reason I am tolerating her being back on MY show is that she makes Hiro and Ando look ten times smarter, and ten times more responsible, and ten times more heroic. Janice tries to waylay the agents, then they search the house. With GUNS. For a BABY. I'm sorry, but ... the Applied Phlebotinum isn't working on this. Ando stuns a guy with his pink lighting. He grins, then gets knocked out with the butt of the gun. Hiro crouches down with Oswald in his arms ... and then TIME STOPS! Huzzah! Hiro cutely tries to get Oswald to do the 'Yatta!' pose (hee hee hee!) but then realizes that his power only worked because of the 'Toddler Touch and Go' powers of Oswald. He tries to get Oswald to use his power, but can't. He puts Oswald into one of those baby-halter things, dumps Ando in a wheelbarrel (still frozen in a fallen position) and trudges out of the house. HEE HEE HEE! That was worth every second of infuriating-Janice!
Even better: to get Daphne a better room, Matt convinced everyone that she is Gwen Stefani. HEE HEE HEE!
Then ... it all comes crashing down. Daphne realizes that the writers were taking some kind of drugs when they wrote her storyline with Matt, and wants out. She gets dressed, says she was sincerely happy to have met him, plans on running too fast to be caught by anyone ... even Matt ... and leaves. *wibbles* I'm sure Mohinder is waiting out in the hall doing a jig of triumph at this point, but even the mental image of that is not making me any happier.
Tracey finds a passport and a ticket in a locker, and Micah comes up behind her and says they're riding together, if that's ok. Tracey is horrified that REBEL is Micah. Micah says he knows she isn't his mom, but she - Tracey - doesn't have anyone else, and they can help people 'like them' together. [What the hell happened to the Monica/Molly/Hana parts of REBEL we envisioned?! Oh, wait, this is a good plot, I'm going to shut up and get on my knees and worship at the alter of Bryan Fuller ... 'never leave again, Mr. Fuller!'] She apologizes, saying she didn't know it was him. He, in turn, is horrified that she'd agree to be bait for someone. Anyways, he planned that she'd be followed, and uses a SPRINT PHONE BUY A SPRINT PHONE USEFUL TO TALLERGHOSTWALTS ACROSS THE NATION to active an emergency alarm in the station.
Angela gets trapped in an elevator car. She remains composed, but looks about a smidge as terrified as I feel. Her car is pulled back to the ground floor, but PETER RESCUES HER AND FLIES HER AWAY YAHOOOOOOOOOOO!
In a PARKING GARRAGE ARE THEY IDIOTS OR SOMETHING?! Micah proves that he is more of a hero than Tracey has ever been. He says that his mom was a real average American, and a hero to boot, and that Tracey is just a politician. Tracey retorts "Who are you, Che Guevara?" Micah fires back with "Che Guevara led a revolution. This is a rebellion. So whose side are you on?" Oooo, Tracey! You just got SERVED! He adds "And 'mine' isn't an answer." Hee hee hee. (Comic-book smart, smart-smart, and history-smart he may be, but clearly Micah didn't read the Evil Overlord List. I swear there's something about the dangers of parking garages and/or dealing with evil twins in there, and if there isn't there SHOULD BE!) Soldiers are coming. Tracey gets Micah to get the sprinklers going, tells him to flee, and continue his work, and states that she can't go with him. She warns him to stay ahead of the ice, and Micah flees.
Cue tragic, haunting music. In slo mo, Tracey is surrounded, she freezes everything (like, TOTALLY freezes. Even herself.) Micah escapes just in time, and then Danko arrives and SHOOTS TRACEY IN THE CHEST. We see him point his gun, and then see Micah whirl around in the hallway, then continue onward. She shatters. In real time, HRG says of Tracey "She said she had one hell of a cold snap." Danko asks of REBEL, hears that there was nothing, and leaves HRG to ponder the odd LotR music. Just as I'm thinking 'Two Ali Later characters down, one more to go ...' we see a shard of Tracey's frozen head WINK AT US. EEEEEEEEEEW! DO NO WANT! Please, Tim Kring, let Tracey die a hero, just like Micah's mother and father before her ...
Hiro, Ando, and Oswald reach a bus station. We pan across shots of extras who are very, very good at standing very, very still. Hiro gets over his child issues (or starts to, I hope) and then unfreezes time. Ando's reactions are hilarious. Apparently Hiro pushed Ando TWELVE MILES. Boy's gotten in SHAPE! I think Oswald's power means that he ok'd Hiro's time-stop ability, but not his teleporting or time-traveling. I think that's ... good. For now. I am content with that. Hiro and Ando resolve to find and save Matt Parkman more money on his car insurance.
We check in with Daphne, getting a sweet view of the
Daphne asks Matt to fly her to the moon. He does. And then, to the tinkly, romantic music ... Daphne flatlines. I yelp and start crying onto my cat. REAL TEARS, PEOPLE! Matt holds Daphne's dead, dead hand, and Mohinder has his hand resting on Matt's shoulder. I can't even summon up a happy thought of slashy goodness right now.
*sniffles* I needed a moment to compose myself ... ulp ... ok, here we go ...
Peter, Angela standing behind him, glowers into the distance with the dramatic music. "So what do you want to do next?" he grits, the camera zooming back to reveal that they are in the head of the Statue of Liberty. WOW. [Make an X-Men reference and I will skewer you.]
That is ... that was ...
When the promo-man said that this episode would prove Heroes was back to its former glory ... he wasn't lying.
Let me repeat that: the promo man DID NOT LIE. He TOLD THE TRUTH.
*checks out the window for flying pigs, hell freezing over, and Republicans and Democrats hugging in a pasture full of milk and honey*
NEXT WEEK: It's all about Sylar. Sylar stalking Danko, Sylar engaging in gunporn with Danko, shots of Mohinder and HRG trying to get in on the slash-fest, etc. Claire has another bad wig on, and Danko says to Sylar "You'd be the only one left" to which Sylar retorts "Funny how that works."
Dudes, I cannot WAIT!

Oh hells yeah! *punches the air* I almost did a little dance when he rescued her, and this is PETER we're talking about! (Peter is certainly growing on me ... I no longer hate him. That's ... good.)
And we can all pretend that they met Claude at the Statue.
akdlfajdlfajfldasjflasdfjal you clever person you! *hugs you*
Well, I for one am a little annoyed that Micah doesn't have any help. I wanted Molly, Monica, and even Hana or maybe Claude to be in on it. *sighs* Ah well, hopefully they'll all make fantastic returns as well!
*dances the dance of 'Heroes is back huzzah thank you gods!'*

Date: 2009-03-25 03:23 pm (UTC)I don't think that Matt knew that he had a child--Janice said it was the other guy's after all. OMGYAY HIRO HAS HIS POWERS BACK!! Well, minus teleporting but STILL. And the Tracy freezing thing was amazing, but I was like O_o at the winking, lol. Noooooooooo Daphne, not when I started to like youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu. Danko IS definitely a bit of a sadist, lol. *also files it away for future reference as he'll probably pop up whenever she does another Heroes fic, whether she means to or not*
And of COURSE Sylar still wants his Momo. Actually probably more so now, since Mohinder has that Super Strength and Sylar wouldn't have to worry about breaking him. ^_~
Actually X-Men never even crossed my mind when I saw the Statue of Liberty. Oh and the ROFLLMAO moment for me was when Ando was all "I'm warm mommy, you're cold daddy" to Hiro. Well I guess we know who tops who in Hando. xDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Oh! And after I finish Sympathy From The Devil, my multi-part Batman/Joker (which will probably end next chapter) the next multi-chaptered fic I think I'm going to work on is either a Harry/Marcone (I KNOW I am going to do a one-shot sequel to Mobster Tango, also.) or a Harry/Morgan. If I do the Harry/Morgan, maybe you'd like to collaborate and that could like be the first fic to post on the comm you want to make. If not, since you have a lot of stuff you're doing (as am I) then that's more than okay.
And yes--the Promo Man did not lie. Hell isn't frozen over though (that happened when Bret Hart got put into the WWE Hall of Fame--and there is a reason for that. XP) but I DO wonder if it's another sign of the apocalypse. Or another Seal broken *S4 Supernatural reference* XP

Date: 2009-03-25 11:20 pm (UTC)*joins you* I was hoping against hope that at least Monica and Molly were in on the REBEL thing ... but just Micah works for now. I've accepted weirder things with this show.
*also files it away for future reference as he'll probably pop up whenever she does another Heroes fic, whether she means to or not*
We plan ahead, us. *grins*
And of COURSE Sylar still wants his Momo. Actually probably more so now, since Mohinder has that Super Strength and Sylar wouldn't have to worry about breaking him. ^_~
Oh god ... get out of my head! I HAVE ACTUAL SCHOOLWORK TO DO THIS MONTH! I HAVE PROMISED HENRY V SHAKESPEARE SLASH TO SOMEONE! *is beckoned seductively by unfinished Harry/Marcone and Sylar/Mohinder fics*
Oh and the ROFLLMAO moment for me was when Ando was all "I'm warm mommy, you're cold daddy" to Hiro. Well I guess we know who tops who in Hando. xDDDDDDDDDDDDD
I had NO IDEA. I didn't want to think about that at all (I don't actively ship Hando, you see ... I see it, I accept it, but I don't participate much) but Tim Kring gets MAJOR brownie points for telling us!
Eeeee! Linkies to this fic series, please! *kicks self for not keeping up with the Knights vs. Anarchy challenge* And a sequel to Mobster tango is a must-have! *falls at your feet*
I have no idea when I'm going to have time to set up the Morgan com, but a fic collaboration would be great ... *thinks over more possible names for the com*
Oh god, not another step towards the Apocalypse! *flocks to Obama and prays for salvation*
no subject
Date: 2009-03-26 07:00 pm (UTC)Yeah me too. Micah by himself does work. And there is still a chance that Molly and Monica will show up. Yeah I think we've ALL: accepted the weirder things lol.
We plan ahead, us. *grins*)
Yup! XD
Oh god ... get out of my head! I HAVE ACTUAL SCHOOLWORK TO DO THIS MONTH! I HAVE PROMISED HENRY V SHAKESPEARE SLASH TO SOMEONE! *is beckoned seductively by unfinished Harry/Marcone and Sylar/Mohinder fics*)
Hee hee! Come to the dark side...we have sexy men! lol Wow Shakespeare slash? That sounds pretty ftw actually. XP
I had NO IDEA. I didn't want to think about that at all (I don't actively ship Hando, you see ... I see it, I accept it, but I don't participate much) but Tim Kring gets MAJOR brownie points for telling us!)
lmao. I'm the same way about Hando, exactly the same. I don't actively ship it or anything either, but that still made me lmao. But yes Kring DOES get points for that. ...unless it was maybe Fuller who did that. O_o
Eeeee! Linkies to this fic series, please! *kicks self for not keeping up with the Knights vs. Anarchy challenge* And a sequel to Mobster tango is a must-have! *falls at your feet*
lol! Well I'll send you the ff.net link to it instead of the batmanjoker links, cause it's easier: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4598791/1/Sympathy_From_the_Devil
And nawwww *picks you up* I can't believe the great response I got from it...I also posted it on mafiabanter a few days ago like you suggested and I got a really got a great response on there as well. ^^
I have no idea when I'm going to have time to set up the Morgan com, but a fic collaboration would be great ... *thinks over more possible names for the com*))
Awesome! You and I collaborate very well together, as I've seen with DW S5. Which I can't wait to work on as soon as you get the time to finish your part--but don't worry, and get everything you have to get done first. =) I mean, I myself am working on the next part for the batmanjoker Challenge (I was going to do last round but my comp HAD to screw up right before the deadline and I missed it. >_> Oh well, I'm using the laptop now. But anyway, the fic I'm doing now, has to do with Mr. Mxyzptlk; he's bored as hell in the fifth dimension and decides to travel to a dimension he hasn't been to yet and heads to the TDK!verse and gets a funny idea...some body swapping MIGHT ensue... XD
Oh god, not another step towards the Apocalypse! *flocks to Obama and prays for salvation*)
lol I knows! *flocks with you*
And as to more names for the Harry/Morgan comm (omg I read the first five chapters Jim Butcher has posted for the upcoming book. All the Harry/Morgan in the first two chapters...*__*) maybe something like GreyCloak or GreyCloaks, since they're Wardens. DusterCloak, wardenbanter, snarkywarden, snarkywardens...

Oh it is, it is. What makes it even better is that Serious Business academics speculate about it in their scholarly reports. You can't get much more 'FTW' than that.

(I bet Matt and Mohinder went in search of Molly ... unless they want to keep her safe and hidden.)
*smacks forehead* And I know this! X_x
Yes, you do!
Oh wow, really? That is AWESOME. *_*
I know! Even now, someone is probably compiling 'evidence' that Shakespeare was gay for their monthly debate with a 'Shakespeare Was So NOT Gay' acquaintance.
Yay, hugs! I'm so pleased that you love them! I'm on 'Dead Beat' now, which is great, but feels a bit like filler, kinda like 'Grave Peril' was. I mean, it's fantastic and all, and hilarious and scary and tense and everything, but ... it feels like filler. Of course, with Jim Butcher, 'filler' means 'wild ride where we revisit many characters from the past and Harry gets wonderfully introspective and aunt_zelda is lying in wait for Marcone to show up as usual' instead of 'useless placeholder.' And I'm not very far yet, so it could blow me away any day here.
rofllmao!!!! That's about my reaction to those chapters too. xDDDDD And yes, Jim Butcher is the motherfucking MAN. And hee hee!! You're more than welcome! XDDDDDD
Thankyouthankyouthankyou!
It's JUST LIKE the beginning of about twelve different fanfics I've read (and some I've WRITTEN!) but NINETY TIMES BETTER and CANON. And they haven't even saved each other's lives or collapsed laughing after a fight
or gotten nekkidyet!Jim Butcher IS the man. And he SO knows who's squeeing right now about the chapters he released. He probably thinks we're amusing.

Yay, hugs! I'm so pleased that you love them! I'm on 'Dead Beat' now, which is great, but feels a bit like filler, kinda like 'Grave Peril' was. I mean, it's fantastic and all, and hilarious and scary and tense and everything, but ... it feels like filler. ))
Oh I absoLUTELY love them. Oh, Dead Beat is a good one. I know what you mean though. It gets a bit more action-y later on in the book. And "Sue" is pretty awesome. XDD
Of course, with Jim Butcher, 'filler' means 'wild ride where we revisit many characters from the past and Harry gets wonderfully introspective and aunt_zelda is lying in wait for Marcone to show up as usual' instead of 'useless placeholder.' And I'm not very far yet, so it could blow me away any day here.))
lmao yup! He's good at making filler do that. And yes, more will come up that should make you happy, me is thinking...XP
Thankyouthankyouthankyou!
It's JUST LIKE the beginning of about twelve different fanfics I've read (and some I've WRITTEN!) but NINETY TIMES BETTER and CANON. And they haven't even saved each other's lives or collapsed laughing after a fight or gotten nekkid yet!))
lmao! I know, it totally is. *_* I can't wait to see what else happens to them. But if somehow Harry has to wash Morgan down or something, I think I'll implode lol.
Jim Butcher IS the man. And he SO knows who's squeeing right now about the chapters he released. He probably thinks we're amusing.))
Oh absolutely! We probably ARE amusing to him. XD And I bet he isn't complaining--us fangirls are probably a large amount of his fanbase. As there ARE differences between fans and fangirls(or fanboys, though they're a rarer breed than us lol)

Marcone? Please? You don't have to tell me what he does or why he's there, but does he show up in 'Dead Beat' at all? Or is it Morgan? You can tell me if he shows up too!
But if somehow Harry has to wash Morgan down or something, I think I'll implode lol.
Then we'll KNOW it's fanservice. Blatant, luverly fanservice. *daydreams at the very idea of such a scene* If there isn't one, you or I will just have to write one.

Well, there's us slashers, then your usual Urban Fantasy Fanboys (and some girls, but it's mostly D&D-type-guys who hang out in the Fantasy section) and average-ish Joes who like a good mystery, and pre-teens trying to rebel by reading adult books, and usual fanboys and fangirls who want something to do between re-watching Buffy and Angel.

Any muggles who go up against mutants are gonna look silly. Or very, very scary. But usually just plain silly. If you adhere to the 'superheroes are a metaphor for the gay rights movement,' then this makes me feel even better, because the He-Men-Mutant-Haters-Club are stand-ins for hardcore Conservatives who want to ban my father from getting married to a man he loves.
Phew, ranty rant ... sorry ...
OMG SUE WAS AMAZING! HARRY YOU ROCK MY MISMATCHED SOCKS
AND CAN MARRY ME IF YOU SO WISH!And Marcone AND Morgan showed up! SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! I'm sure that they heard me cheering and yelping in joy across the Atlantic, that's how excited I was. MARCONE SHOWED UP TO SAVE HARRY IT MUST BE LOVE! And Morgan KICKS ASS! *huggles him when he's not looking* If I could draw, I swear, I'd draw Grumpy Morgan being huggled by a squeeing me and looking utterly disgusted by this, and maybe Harry wisecracking that Morgan doesn't like ANY woman touching him and winking suggestively ... it would be a great piece of fanart.
But yeah, when Luccio told Harry to put on the Warden's cloak I nearly fell off of my chair laughing. Morgan, you angst-machine you. And Harry has UNDERSTANDING of Morgan now. *squees all night long*
Seriously, Jim Butcher CANNOT be ignorant of the goings on of slash fangirls. He's practically CATERING to us! No, scratch that, he IS catering to us!
mmmm *daydreams and drools a little* Yeah, we'll have to write it up probably. Speaking of which, I've had the damndest luck finding ANY Harry/Morgan fic--point some my way please? D=
We'll have to start it ourselves, I'm afraid. I've only been able to track down the ONE fic: http://www.theninemuses.net/archive/viewstory.php?sid=8 and it's SO SHORT! The two have such CHEMISTRY it's OBSCENE, and there's like, NO FANFIC for them! Harry/Marcone is better off by a little, but the fact remains that there's a ridiculously small amount of fic for such a slashy pairing! *chugs away at my fic* I'm writing from Harry's POV, but I'm not sure about switching off to Marcone's POV within the fic ... *pulls hair* I think it works better with Harry's POV, methinks ... and I write in first-person a lot lately. Good practice.
Yup we're definitely a motley crew lol. I also think it's cool that Jim Butcher likes roleplaying and larp's and stuff. Have you heard that a Dresden Files rping book is supposed to be being worked on right now? WIN. <3

No, feel free to rant to your heart's content! I too cannot stand Conservatives. I mean, we are all PEOPLE. We like who we like, whether a man likes another man, or a woman likes another woman, shouldn't be an issue. We are free to love who we will, and everybody should be entitled to marry the person they love, regardless of sexual orientation.
OMG SUE WAS AMAZING! HARRY YOU ROCK MY MISMATCHED SOCKS AND CAN MARRY ME IF YOU SO WISH!
And Marcone AND Morgan showed up!. )
lol yes, Sue is awesome. I told you she would be! XP And Harry is THE MAN. And yay for having Marcone and Morgan appear in the same book!
MARCONE SHOWED UP TO SAVE HARRY IT MUST BE LOVE!)
Definitely! XD
And Morgan KICKS ASS! *huggles him when he's not looking* If I could draw, I swear, I'd draw Grumpy Morgan being huggled by a squeeing me and looking utterly disgusted by this, and maybe Harry wisecracking that Morgan doesn't like ANY woman touching him and winking suggestively it would be a great piece of fanart.)

He HAS to know of fangirls. He DEFINITELY is catering to us!

Thanks for the linkie! We'll do a good job on starting it then! We'll have to point the comm out to everyone we can when we get it up and running. And yes, I don't understand how a pairing that has such chemistry doesn't have more fic for them! I mean, I noticed the tension the moment Morgan appeared in Storm Front!
I'm writing from Harry's POV, but I'm not sure about switching off to Marcone's POV within the fic I think it works better with Harry's POV, methinks and I write in first-person a lot lately. Good practice.)
I'd say stick with Harry's POV. And possibly save Marcone POV for another fic. And yes practice is always good. I've been keeping up with first person POV with the latest fic I did for the Challenge (not Mr. Mxyzptlk's Wild Ride, but the fic after that--so now you have two more to read! lol) It's called Steps Away From Madness, and it turned out quite...interesting to say the least! lol
I love it when authors are just as geeky as us fans.)
I know! It's like saying that we can do what they do, because they do what WE do.

Oh god ... you're right! *staggers under the weight of all these 'M's and then the added weight of all the 'M's in The Dresden Files* Sylar should change his name to 'Marvin' or something in an effort to get into the House of M setup.
I really just about DIED during the scene where Ms. Gard shows up and is all 'kaPOW I pwn ghouls with my Viking Badassery!' and then HAULS Harry into Marcone's CAR and Harry is all '*crosses arms not looking at you*' and Marcone is all 'heh heh, banter now!' and ... yeah. Died. I have this awful habit of peeking ahead a couple pages to see if Morgan or Marcone show up, and when I saw that scene I was all 'OMG YAAAAAAAAY!' and thus read it about three times.
Same with me, lol. And yay Harry finally gets Morgan!
Oh, Morgan. If you only knew the legions of fangirls that lie in wait to give you hugs ...
And yeah. First Harry 'UNDERSTANDS' Marcone, and now he 'UNDERSTANDS' Morgan. Surely canon slash is swiftly approaching?
Yeah, I'll stick with Harry's POV ... it's easier that way.

Oh god ... you're right! *staggers under the weight of all these 'M's and then the added weight of all the 'M's in The Dresden Files* Sylar should change his name to 'Marvin' or something in an effort to get into the House of M setup.)
hee hee! Yes Heroes and Dresden Files both have PLENTY of enough M's between them, and hey, maybe Sylar's middle name starts with an M...you never know! =P Like Gabriel Michael Grey. I mean, something like that would make sense, since he was named after an angel to begin with, it'd make sense that his middle name could start with an M.
I really just about DIED during the scene where Ms. Gard shows up and is all 'kaPOW I pwn ghouls with my Viking Badassery!' and then HAULS Harry into Marcone's CAR and Harry is all '*crosses arms not looking at you*' and Marcone is all 'heh heh, banter now!' and ... yeah. Died.)
Oh I KNOW! She's such a bamf. And the banter...*died too* It was just...GUH. (One of the one-shots that Jim Butcher did, has Gard and Harry teaming up and we learn more about her and who, and what, she really is. =O I have them all saved up, if you want to read them. I am buying all the main books, of course, but I haven't been able to find any of the books that hold the one-shots, especially since other authors have stories in them and stuff too. (And it took FOREVER to find all the one-shots! lol) )
I have this awful habit of peeking ahead a couple pages to see if Morgan or Marcone show up, and when I saw that scene I was all 'OMG YAAAAAAAAY!' and thus read it about three times.)
lol, so far I've been able to keep from doing that, but it's been pretty close a few times. XP Oh I know! That scene was like !!!!! <33333333 Scenes like that almost HAVE to be re-read, it's like...an obligation lol.
Oh, Morgan. If you only knew the legions of fangirls that lie in wait to give you hugs ...)
I know! I think he'd be like ?_? and Harry would be all like 'O_o...really?' at first. Hee. Then again, I don't think HARRY would realize just how many fangirls (and boys) want to do the same thing to him.
And yeah. First Harry 'UNDERSTANDS' Marcone, and now he 'UNDERSTANDS' Morgan. Surely canon slash is swiftly approaching?)
I knowwwww. It's like Mr. Butcher is just saying "Slash? Yes, you all love slash, I know. ...Here you go!" We can only HOPE that canon slash shall be upcoming! (I mean, Harry gets Morgan into his BED in Turn Coat and is taking care of him...we're SO close to canon slash, it's damn near breaking the Fourth Wall! lol)
Yeah, I'll stick with Harry's POV ... it's easier that way.)
Cool. And yeah it is. And it's fun too! Harry was lots of fun to work with. I need to get on the sequel to Mobster Tango soon...(*mumblerightnowI'mworkingonasecretficthatI'vetoldnooneaboutmumble*)
I keep meaning to check out your recent fics ... *headdesk* I'm a bad, bad person for neglecting your work.)
Aww, don't feel bad! *huggles* I've been really busy too, so I understand! Really! =3 Whenever you get the chance to look at them and let me know what you think, that'll be great!
It'll also be great when you get back the next part of S5 to me--I've actually been itching to get back working on it! lol. That's partly the shows fault--they were showing a marathon yesterday (Series 3, from "Smith and Jones" to "Blink". So I was getting the urge to work on S5, lol.)
Oh! Also, I don't know if you remember, but in "Gridlock" there is an old married lesbian couple. I myself forgot about it until I rewatched it. And in "Daleks in Manhattan", the girl talking to Martha asks if the reason Martha and the Doctor aren't together, is because he is into "musical theater" XDD

That scene was like !!!!! <33333333
I KNOW! Just ... MUH! It jacked up Harry/Marcone like five notches on the slashy-potential meter!
I know! I think he'd be like ?_? and Harry would be all like 'O_o...really?' at first. Hee. Then again, I don't think HARRY would realize just how many fangirls (and boys) want to do the same thing to him.
Heh heh ... it'd be worth the injuries afterwards just to see their faces as we jumped them ... they'd think we were assassins or something at first and be freaked, thinking we were incredibly powerful to be getting this close to them ... but we'd just keep huggling them and grinning ...
I knowwwww. It's like Mr. Butcher is just saying "Slash? Yes, you all love slash, I know. ...Here you go!" We can only HOPE that canon slash shall be upcoming! (I mean, Harry gets Morgan into his BED in Turn Coat and is taking care of him...we're SO close to canon slash, it's damn near breaking the Fourth Wall! lol)
*crosses fingers* It'll be a while yet until I can get my paws on a copy of Turn Coat. I think I'll have to slink back in shame to my local library, seeing as how I need money so bad that I'm going to spend my off-time doing yard-work for a woman who kinda scares me, whose daughter is EVIL.
But yes, Harry got Morgan INTO HIS BED within the first few pages and STITCHED HIM UP and ... GUH! It was like the start off to a really well-written slash fic! If they go out on a mission and get back to Harry's place all high on adrenaline and start making out, I think I'll DIE.

Yeah, I'm trying to save money for it. But hopefully I can find it online or something soon to read it (I'll buy it as soon as I get enough money!) Oh and that sucks! *sigh* Alas, we must do what we have to for money. Evil is never good!You could always try to repel her with a cross, or an anhk or a pentagram neckless like Harry has, lol.
But yes, Harry got Morgan INTO HIS BED within the first few pages and STITCHED HIM UP and GUH! It was like the start off to a really well-written slash fic! If they go out on a mission and get back to Harry's place all high on adrenaline and start making out, I think I'll DIE.)
I KNOW! *__* And yes, you and me both! I mean, hell, even if they do everything else but the making out, it'd probably be too much for us to take lol.
Now THAT sounds intriging a sekrit sekrit fic?)
*whistles* ...Well, I doubt anyone would guess what fandom it is I'm writing in; it's not one of my usual ones people think of when thinking of me, though it's one of my favorite anime/manga's. I have lots of stuff planned for it; I've been working on it here and there on my off time. I've actually mentioned the anime/manga one or two times but it's been awhile since I have.
Ack! S5! Um ... *looks over it* Aw, crap ... I haven't worked on it for what feels like YEARS ... Sunniva-Lynn, come back to me! *runs off into the hills of fanfiction, dodging the rabid plot bunnies as I go*)
lol, it's okay. Can't wait to get to the next part, for I shall work vigorously and write lots and lots! I miss Sunniva-Lynn too--she feels like a genuine character of the show almost, you know, not just an OC, and DEFINITELY not a Mary-Sue. She's very, VERY far from that, and that makes me happy. We're both striving to keep her from that, I know. The opinion of people need to change, as I think as soon as people hear the word 'OC' they immediately think Mary-Sue (or the occasional rare Gary-Sue)
Oh, yes, I remember! Tallulah's dance number and comment about the Doctor liking 'musical theater' are the only good things about 'Daleks in Manhatten.' And 'Gridlock' remains one of my favorite episodes of DW. *Squees about the old lesbian ladies*)
I know. It wasn't the best episode...but the Doctor was in it, and there were dance numbers and 'musical theater' references about the Doctor, so it can be forgiven--mostly. And yes, I LOVE Gridlock as well. It's really an amazing ep. I was glad to see it again (I managed to record a few DW ep's on my DVR, which includes Gridlock, so I can watch the Doctor for awhile, yay!) And yes, mentions of married lesbian/gay couples is WIN. Makes me remember what's good about RTD and not all the bashing people have done because of all teh Rose stuff and all.

Got the files! Thanks muchly! I'll read them once I'm through with Small Favor and Turn Coat.
Hells yes! lol yup they totally would. Then they wouldn't know what the hell to think or do as we kept huggling them. That's part of the reason why we fangirls are scarier than anything that has/will be thrown at them. XP
Yeppers! Then Bob would start sniggering ... and it'd all go to hell. (After the show, lots of people seem to ship Harry/Bob. It makes sense for the show, but not for the bookverse. I'm divided as it is.)

I'm actually seriously considering that. That kid is SCARY.
And yes, you and me both! I mean, hell, even if they do everything else but the making out, it'd probably be too much for us to take lol.
Like, Marcone and Harry barely touched in 'White Night' but we all half died of the SQUEE. I'm so excited about the possibilities for what'll happen with Harry and Morgan in Turn Coat.

Hee hee! Yeppers!
Wow ... just remembered, last night I had a dream about Michael and ... someone else ... and the swords ... it was really sad and scary ... the sword was just flickering for Michael and the other guy, because it needed to be handed off to a new person, but Michael and the other guy were wounded and fighting these ... giant spiders? Ugh, it was awful ...
I think I ship TV!Harry/TV!Bob, because ... well, if you watch the Pilot alone, you get slash vibes: the Skinwalker is torturing Harry and taunting Bob about not being able to do anything, and eventually Bob gives her the info she needs. I couldn't help it: I squeed when I saw that.
But Bookverse!Harry/Bookverse!Bob ... no. I feel no slashy vibes from those two.
The kid was ok ... it was scary, though, because I half expected her to jump me with a scythe or something.

Woah, wild dream. Was the other guy Sanya or just someone else? Poor Michael! We can't let anything happen to him, he's cool! (And I have to say, that Turn Coat totally knocked down a theory I had about who was going to get one of the swords... >_>)

I agree. Bookverse!Harry/Bookverse!Bob there is no slashy vibes, but TV wise yes. And there is nothing wrong with squeeing when it comes to Harry in slashy situations, TV or not. =P (though the tv version of Harry is not exactly how I pictured him...he's still cool though.)

I have lots of wild dreams. I tend not to remember them so much anymore, or just give up on writing them down. Too complex. Still, if I get a good tidbit, I write it down and use it in a story.
What about the swords? I still think that Thomas could be 'redeemed' or whatever via Amorcchius ...
(though the tv version of Harry is not exactly how I pictured him...he's still cool though.)
Yeah, I know what you mean ... he was good for the TV show, but in my head, Harry Dresden is very different from that guy.
I love the shows, both of them, but I'll be glad when they end, so I have more free time. It's tiring! lol)
Preaching to the choir, dear! *kerslumps* Just the LAST EVER EPISODE OF LOST, and then the Doctor Who specials, and I'll be all set! Huzzah!

Ah. Well I remember probably 90% or more of my dreams (not exaggerating on the percentage either!) Always have dreamt in color too, will full sound and everything and many times I will find myself in the position where I am in the sort of dream that feels the most 'real', you know what I mean? (Just last night, part of my dream involved me flirting with Sawyer *blush*...but he didn't seem to mind! XD He was looking for his blue cell phone of all things!)
What about the swords? I still think that Thomas could be 'redeemed' or whatever via Amorcchius ...)
Well I thought that Morgan would end up getting one of the swords, though I do think Thomas will get one too. I was hoping for that as well, but then he turned into, well you know, in Turn Coat so I was like *hangs head*. But yes, I think he can still be redeemed too! I still have hope for him yet! If anyone could help him and turn him around; it'd be Harry.

Same here. (Plus I imagined him with a BIT more hair lol. That, and be taller and lankier.)

I am finally free! Eee! I'm caught up with Lost, Heroes and Supernatural as well as the first two DW specials, so I can finally REST. *slumps over*

The power of family!

And handsomer. But sometimes on the show I'd see flickers of Book!Harry in TV!Harry. He was great for a TV!Harry, but it would take a miraculous situation to get a practically-perfect TV!Harry. Plus, everyone has a different idea of what characters in books 'should' look like, remember all those controversies and WARS over HP actors?
Ah, lucky, you can slump! *is THISCLOSE to being able to slump*

Date: 2009-05-23 06:54 pm (UTC)Oh it was! Last night, part of my dream involved Sylar wanting to be apart of the Anime D20 campaign I'm apart of! lol. The one me and my friends are actually doing. =P

Yup!

Me too! But yes, sometimes TV!Harry had a bit of Book!Harry's charm and stuff. But yeah, the odds of getting it how most everyone sees Harry would be small. And yes, I most definitely remember that too!

Aww, well you're getting there at least! *huggles*

Date: 2009-05-31 02:19 am (UTC)Oh, he was good, definately ... but he wasn't Book!Harry. However, he was good for what he was, and I think that it's better to try and deviate from the original material rather than attempt to stay true to every single little thing and FAIL. *cough* Most of the Harry Potter movies, except for the first two, those were pretty good, before they started modeling clothes for the GAP *cough*

Rather impossible, I'd say.

I ended up agreeing with pretty much all of their casting choices ... but Paul McGann should totally have played Remus Lupin. Says so right here: http://doomandnachos.livejournal.com/282809.html (Well, a long way down the list, but OMG hotness pictures!)
SO CLOSE to being able to slump! Luckily I got sick on Friday and have spent the past couple of days sleeping, procrastinating, crying about stress, and watching S&A and X-Men Evolution.

No kidding! (Ooh and I saw PoA at a drive-in when it came out! XD)

Very much so!

I agree! And lol acutally I've already read that! lol. That's funny cause I stumbled across that link awhile back when I was looking up pics and stuff of Eight. XDDD But yes, he'd DEFINITELY be a better Lupin. (wtf, why does Lupin have that pencil thin little mustache?!?! I want to shave it! lol)

That's cool! Not the sick thing, but the getting close to slumping thing! Ahh don't cry!! *huggles* But yes, X-Men Evolution was real good too. I want to find more Samurai 7 anime, it's reallllllllllllly good (and so many slashy things to ship!)

Date: 2009-06-07 07:35 pm (UTC)Cool! I went to the midnight showing, dressed as Prof. Trelawney! I looked more like Prof. Trelawney than they made her in the movie! I wore an old tablecloth as a shawl, a witch's hat, bottle glasses that made my eyes look HUGE, and a badjillion silver and gold Mardi Gras beads. THAT is how she should have looked in the movie, not like some crazy cat lady they pulled off of the street and cleaned her up a bit! *ahem* No offense to Emma Thompson, she rocks, but the character design was very off.
I did the midnight showing thing for the 4th one too, but we came late and hadn't reserved seats so I got stuck front row, dead center, and got a crick in my neck from having to stare UP at the screen. One of my friends got a chair in the aisle, and another got the end seat behind a tall person. Did I mention that I went dressed as Crookshanks, in a skirt and jacket made of neon orange fuzziness, and some cat ears ... and I was like, the only person dressed up there? One of my friends went as Ginny Weasley, but it's easy to blend into a crowd of rowdy college kids at midnight when you're wearing a sweater and a schoolgirl skirt ... and just happen to be wearing a dark cloak over that. Especially when you're standing next to the bright orange cat girl (re: me.) It was loads of fun, though.
I was SO MAD at Lupin's design in that movie! LUPIN DOES NOT LOOK LIKE THAT! I know it's pretty impossible to get characters looking like the fans think they do, but ... WHO THE HELL THOUGHT LUPIN LOOKED LIKE THAT?! Just ... NO! Nuh-uh! WRONG! (Though Sirius half-making-out with transforming-Lupin was pretty good ...)
I'm over the crying bit. The project is done! HURRAY! (But now I'm sick ... boo!) Thank you for the hugs, though!
I finished S1 of X-Men Evolution. It was quite good! (I heart Kurt!) I think I'll start S2 today ...
I want to find more Samurai 7 anime, it's reallllllllllllly good (and so many slashy things to ship!)
Ooooooo ... tell me more?

Date: 2009-04-04 10:34 pm (UTC)Although your comment IS very flattering. *blushes and beams* Thank you!
I HOPE that Tracey is dead, and the wink was just ... I dunno, the special-effects team messing with us. I want Barbara to have a backbone, some sanity, and hair a different shade than blond, goddamnit!
*wibbles* Daphne was the only good thing to come out of Volume 3: TRUFAX. *sniffles*
YAY MICAH! *dances*
Dear Mr. Fuller, please bring back Molly, Monica, Hana, and especially Claude ...
