- I bought new comics today, including #2 of Milo V's Rest, and I swear, the art still terrifies me. It's kind of making it difficult for me to assess whether it's actually any good.
- There's going to be a live-action TV show based on the comic Powers! This really excites me, even though I'm concerned they won't do it justice. Powers was the series that got me into comics, and I always wondered if they'd adapt it. If they did it right, it could be an awesome dark Justice League/Heroes fusion. Unh, I'm going to be all over this when it comes out.
- This. (The first set of pictures in the post.) This is just the best Heroes photoshoot ever. I just. *flails* By the way, this one is my favourite. What I'd do for a hi res, non-watermarked set.
- I really want to get volume one of the Middleman graphic novels, but look how much it's selling for. D:
- I have updated my profile, replete with me a picture of me sitting upside down in a chair reading a book on the Nazis. Yeah, I don't know.
- I have lots more reading to do for my history lesson tomorrow, and I don't wanna. :(

Marry-
Michael Bluth

I reckon Michael would be a pretty devoted husband, and you know, my craziness would seem like nothing compared to his family. Also? He's adorable! ♥
Shag-
Nathan Petrelli

I love love love Nathan, but fuck, I would not marry him. That would be a bad marriage. I would, however, shag him. A lot. :D
Throw off a cliff-
Topher Brink

By virtue of not being Michael and Nathan, I'd have to be throwing Topher off a cliff. Sorry, Topher.

ANYWAY. Give me three choices!

This. :D But what I really want is hi res shots so that we can get an explosion of icons and the like. And my God, how skinny is Adrian?
Okay: Nathan Petrelli, Declan Dunn and Ned. :D

People: Logan, Cameron and Nathan. You have to kill one of them - MAKE YOUR CHOICE.
(no subject)
*slaps finger away* Your poking will be more effective after the next episode airs. Hopefully, I'll be in OMGILOVETHISSHOW mode.
YOU. ARE. AN. EVIL. BASTARD.
Why are you so cruel to me? That's just cold to make me have to kill one of them. I think I'm going to have to reconsider this friendship.
(no subject)
But you'd rather make me do it. It's 4.30am your time.
And more importantly, why are you putting our squeefest on hold?
Heroes airs at approximately four/five in the morning my time (the daylight saving hours are confusing me, so I'm not sure), so plus the hour that it airs, and however long it takes for someone to upload it, I'm looking at watching it at about six thirty in the morning. I've got a history lesson at ten thirty.
Why are you so cruel to me? That's just cold to make me have to kill one of them.
Well, look at it this way, push Nathan off a cliff and he'll fly away and push Cameron off and she'd probably get up and walk away. Logan would pretty much die, though.
(no subject)
GASP! You have mind reading abilities.
I've got a history lesson at ten thirty.
Damn you, history! Well, I guess at least you'll have seen it by the time I wake up.
Well, look at it this way, push Nathan off a cliff and he'll fly away and push Cameron off and she'd probably get up and walk away.
YOU'RE A KEEPER NOW. I was thinking more along the lines of marry, boff, kill so my brain connected throwing off a cliff as instantly dying. But playing with the wording is so much better. And makes me less angsty over fictional characters. I'm sad. But at least I have my decisions now.
(no subject)
We can flail heartily tomorrow, be it for good or ill. IT BETTER BE FOR GOOD, THOUGH.
But at least I have my decisions now.
Which are? I feel slightly dubious as to whether you'll repost it to your journal or not.
(no subject)
IT BETTER BE FOR GOOD, THOUGH.
Yes! I am only thinking hopeful, optimistic thoughts. It may be foolish but I've never been smart when it comes to potential Nathan/Claire.
I feel slightly dubious as to whether you'll repost it to your journal or not.
Heh. You are a wise then. Let's see, I would marry Logan, shag Nathan silly, and shove my beloved Cameron off a cliff. Though, I'm paranoid. Would you allow me to keep her chip in my pocket as safe keeping?
(no subject)
KIND OF LIKE THIS? I don't know, I felt compelled to find the animal manifestation of your happy place. In searching for this, I found pretty much in equal measure: cute bunnies, Playboy bunnies, and TERRIFYING bunny costumes.
I am only thinking hopeful, optimistic thoughts.
I'm right there with you, but if they fake us out, me and the show are going to be having words.
Would you allow me to keep her chip in my pocket as safe keeping?
It might be fun watching you try to get it out, so yes, sure.
(no subject)
ALL IT IS MISSING IS THE SPOT OVER HIS EYE. BUT YES. Damn. Now I want that bunny. And I applaud your bravery for using the word bunny as a search term. Scary shit is out there.
but if they fake us out, me and the show are going to be having words.
I'm going past words and straight to planning to blow a building up.
It might be fun watching you try to get it out, so yes, sure.
'Tis easy. I will have in my arsenal a Super Soaker, taser, knife and pliers. And maybe that car I don't know how to drive as a means to help me roll her body off.
(no subject)
THERE'S A LITTLE BIT OF GREY AROUND HIS EYE, DOES THAT COUNT?
Scary shit is out there.
There is. I get the whole bunny/porn thing (has anything ever sounded more wrong than that, I ask you) but what on earth drive a person to dress in a full bunny suit, ala this rather special individual (click at your own risk, for sure). YOU ARE SCARRING CHILDREN THE WORLD OVER. Still, at least there's Daily Bunny to balance out the horror.
How is a Super Soaker going to help matters?
(no subject)
YES. BUT ONLY BECAUSE IT'S YOU. AND FOR SOME REASON I LIKE YOU.

*eye twitch*
I debated on clicking on the link. Curiosity naturally won out. But what the fuck? That bunny looks warped and is either high or possessed and possibly terrified. Maybe it looked in a mirror.
And, great, another site to suck hours out of my life. Looking at cute fuzzy things tends to make me lose track of time. I was with my friend the other day and we spent a good portion of our time youtubing videos of Scottish Folds.
How is a Super Soaker going to help matters?
Because I plan on soaking her before shocking her with a taser. That will then give me 120 seconds. If I'm going on a suicide mission then I'm giving myself the best odds possible.
(no subject)
IS IT BECAUSE I'M PRETTY? IT'S 'CAUSE I'M PRETTY.
That bunny looks warped and is either high or possessed and possibly terrified.
I wonder if that person dresses as a bunny for holiday purposes or for pleasure, because seriously, that has to be the quickest and best way of turning Easter into Halloween.

Goddamn you, I had to go find out what Scottish Folds were. I will resist the temptation of watching the vids though, because bed is calling me.

You appear to have already thought this out quite far. Are you considering pursuing a career in subduing killer robots?
(no subject)
*nods* It's cause you're pretty.

Absolutely. It gave me a weird Donnie Darko feel. But that bunny is even more twisted. This one is like his cousin.
Goddamn you, I had to go find out what Scottish Folds were.
Hee. I find them freakishly cute with their folded little ears and big ass eyes. Caty and I are totally on planning on finding an apartment and getting two of them. This of course will require me to get off my ass and find a job.
You appear to have already thought this out quite far. Are you considering pursuing a career in subduing killer robots?
Sadly, this didn't require much thought. I'm just that obsessed. And hell no to that career opportunity. On principle I will run in the opposite direction far, far away from killer robots. Cameron is the one exception. And that's a stupid exception because she's one of the more advanced models. She would easily have quicker ways to kill me than the triple-eights.
(no subject)
They are totally adorable, but then I'm always a sucker for floppy ears - my dog's ear were folded down until she was about seven months old. And she was a little bit cross-eyed.
And getting a job so as to be able to support your cats seems like a good motivator to me.
Also? FUCKING FAKED OUT. GODDAMN.
(no subject)
I like floppy ears as well. My dog is currently the only animal we have with floppy ears and I love fiddling with them. They're all nice and soft. And I didn't realize until just lately that the Scottish Fold breed plays into my obsession of all things Scottish. I guess even when I was younger I had a thing for it. Huh.
Also? FUCKING FAKED OUT. GODDAMN.
I know right? It was a good episode so I'm not going to blow up a building but DAMN YOU! YOU CAN'T LEAVE ME WITH THAT AWESOME CLOSING SHOT OF NATHAN AND CLAIRE AND THEN GIVE ME NOTHING AFTER TWO FUCKING WEEKS. SONOFABITCH
(no subject)
I kind of thought they would, since they always seem to skip an episode for the really interesting cliffhangers, but DAMMIT, after two weeks? I think me and the show need to have that talk now. And if it hadn't been for DAPHNEWTF, then this episode would have been pretty much perfect, even with the lack of Nathan and Claire.
(no subject)
COULDN'T YOU HAVE WARNED ME THEN? Damn. Be a friend.
Stupid goddamn Heroes. We have a love/hate relationship at this point. Two weeks is too fucking long. And if they had actually aired this weeks episode last week like they should have then we would be basking in Nathan/Claire interaction. SO DAMN YOU, NBC! You and your fucking scheduling.
And if it hadn't been for DAPHNEWTF, then this episode would have been pretty much perfect
Damn. Why did Daphne have to die? I hope Tracey isn't dead. I'm not attached to her character but I don't want two female characters to die in the same episode. If Tracey bites it then that pretty much leaves Claire and Angela with the occasional appearance from Sandra.
(no subject)
I DIDN'T WANT TO BRING YOU DOWN.
It really really sucks how the show treat their female characters - pretty much only Daphne and Monica were the only ones who weren't one extreme or the other and were actually relatable (I love Claire, but goddamn woman, stop whining) , and if they bring Monica back just to kill her, I will fucking cry. I'm pretty sure Tracy isn't dead though - they said one of the deaths was a fake out, and Larter's said she's definitely staying in the show. They could just bring in Barbara instead, but I'm really hoping they won't, that would kind of suck.
(no subject)
Fine. It's not like you could have won anyways. I would have found a way to bitch. If you would have said something, I would call you cruel for taking me away from my sweet, sweet denial land.
They could just bring in Barbara instead, but I'm really hoping they won't, that would kind of suck.
If they give Ali another character then it's going to turn into a running joke. Because seriously how many characters can one actor play on a show? Or does Niki's mom have the biggest womb ever and popped out a dozen blonde babies?
And I don't usually get into feminist issues because they usually fly right over my head but damn if Heroes doesn't suck ass. I love Claire more for what she use to be then what she is now. And Angela is Angela. 'Nuff said but she isn't exactly someone you can connect to. And I either never really connected to the other female characters or they are currently deader than dead. Surely, humans of the XX variety are not that alien. We're people too.
(no subject)
This is what I was trying to avoid.
I used to mostly ignore feminist issues in fandom too, but recently it's becoming really obvious in Heroes. All the women seem to be weak and unstable or a bitch with or without a heart of gold. Or, you know, they're just poorly developed bit characters. I love all the men, obviously, but I wish it wasn't always so male-driven. It's a problem with a lot of shows though, people can't seem to write female characters and stick with tired clichés.
Uh, how do I get down from this soapbox?
