It's freaking big.*

In the hopes of enticing folk in the madness and the awesome of T: TSCC, I give you a quote:

aliasagent: I've shipped Derek/Cameron ever since the first "Don't let her touch me" line ever went out of Derek's mouth. Oh ship, I love how prejudiced and angry and scared you are.

How can a fandom with that type of noncanon ship not appeal?

And did I mention the massive amount of potential in the scene where Derek (manly-man from the future) is all bloodied and hallucinating and calling out to present!John thinking it's future!John, asking what he did to his brother (Kyle Reese, John's dad, from the films), and present!John's all torn up at seeing what he's done / will do to this man and his brother.

Summer Glau's scene, non-spoilery, gets to be embedded, because she is that freaking good. Seriously. Liek, omg.

I've been an emotional porcupine all day - including the rolling-up-into-a-ball - and don't quite know what to do with myself anymore.

Ma called and whined about dad, asked about my housing plans, telling me things I already knew and in fact had just told her and then kept correcting me and going on about US politics. I just couldn't be arsed and really didn't want to be talking about that. So she hangs up. Were I my brother she'd be all suffer-in-silence and quietly-supportive.

I'm a freakin' nervous wreck. My usual coping strategies are full of fail because I can't be arsed. Edit: Pimping T: TSCC helped somewhat, but hardly enough.

And what the flying with all the British-English slang?

Also, if I fail to pick up on social cues or am in general an arse ass, for the love of Peter Petrelli and all his hos, tell me. Smite me! Yell out, "Pumpernickle!" and leave it at that! Honestly, I've been feeling like such a social dolt at times, even though at the time it's all (maybe) a-okay. (Did I really offer the terms "box" and "carpet-muncher" to Laura's "eager beaver"? Why yes I did. Sure, they were meant as examples of female-related anatomy terms that Elisa wasn't aware of, but holy splintered cheese, batman.)

Aaaaand I'm going to stop now and apply lj-cutage, because I'm obviously not in an objective mindframe at the moment. I hardly know what I'm saying anymore.

Chiwetel Ejiofor won the 2008 Best Actor Laurence Olivier Award for his portrayal of Othello in the Donmar Warehouse production. Competition included Ian McKellen (King Lear), Mark Rylance (Boeing Boeing) and John Simm (Elling). I'm conflicted: Ejiofor is awesome, but so's Simm. They ought to tape theatre, damnit! I would've loved to watch Elling.

But were you enticed? I mean, beyond the utter hotness of cute boys with guns (and cute girls with guns, and naked men in showers, and...oh, I could go on).

Oh, I already watch TSCC.

It has Summer Glau. No more enticement required.

:D

[bending-sickle.livejournal.com]

We must discuss this, y/y? (Perferrably when I'm not all fuzzy-headed with sleep.) So, raincheck?

\o/ Aye aye!
