God. How painful and lovely and heartbreaking. Poor Rory. Is it bad that this made me think of 'that scene' in Little Children?

[etherati]

I haven't actually seen Little Children! I know, I know, I'm a terrible fan. D:

But yeah. Painful is the word, mostly. But a little hopeful too, in that he's starting to let himself be reshaped into something that can accept these things, as much as it hurts.

[aceles]

Do it. I cannot recommend it enough. I wasn't expecting much aside from JEH's performance, which I heard in advance was phenomenal (I wasn't wrong) but the whole film is great. Also from a shipper's standpoint I was like !!!! PATRICK WILSON. WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE. It's like some horrible AU.

That's what I love about it. It's not just AHHHH BAD WALTER--there's a note of redemption there.

[etherati]

I am a redemption whore. There is nothing that sucks me in like a character being able to find their way back up from horrible depths. I don't know why.

[aceles]

Oh god, same same same. I think everyone does. I am practically an addict for redemption, it fascinates me.

Aaaw, AAAW, I've been trying really hard never to associate that scene with Watchmen.

AAAAAW. D:

[etherati]

I still don't know what scene you all are talking about! D:

[lampsh4de]

I assume it's the one where JEH's character is jerking off in a car in front of some poor psychologically damaged woman.

B| I reeeeally don't want to associate that scene with Walter.

JEH is a good enough actor that there are no similarities between the characters, but still. Eeeerrrrrg.

[etherati]

Hey this is different, totally. He's just. Jerking off to pilfered underwear arghhhghghg god I feel so sleezy for having written this. DDD:

[lampsh4de]

Haha. DON'T FEEL SLEEZY! D:
God, that part of the movie is so disturbing (it's supposed to be), but this fic is like, "D'aww Rorschach is so fucked up he can't admit his feelings so he hides in Dan's laundry room and hnnng that bit where he's nuzzling the shirt is just so UNF."

Aaaah, my brain is fighting to NOT SEE JEH WACKING OFF IN A CAAAAR. STOP STOP STOP.

[etherati]

in this verse at least he's starting to come to terms with it all haha.

to get that out of your head, have you seen the illustration Liodain did for 'Laundry'? XD

[lampsh4de]

Yeah. C: Oooh, I'm gonna go look at it again. :D

Heeheehee.
