Spaced out (not me)
My flatmate 1 and her friend have really gotten into their new source of income. I just tripped on a can full of empty beer cans on my way to the toilet.
So I have been re-watching Spaced. Which led to me buying a flower-patterned blouse on discount price from a local second hand chain shop today(one garment=one euro), merely because it looked like something Daisy Steiner would wear (especially in the first series of Spaced) .
This particular round has also made me realise that:
- I love Mike. He is a really nice bloke, even though he did shoot his Mums cat. I am slightly devastated that I can never make him happy, though (of course there is the whole fictional/not-fictional thing too). And how cute it was that he was reading Oranges are not Only Fruit instead of some non-fictional book on the subject. Awww.
- I love the friendship Tim and Daisy build during the series. But I also ship them romantically, and usually it makes me feel either old and dirty or like a hormonal teenager. But it is so hard to resist when they are everything I feel welcoming in a couple. Or perhaps my new shippy fangirling of them is the only thing that prevents me from shipping TimAND/ORDaisy/Gragerty. However, I am happy they didn´t hook up during the series. Perhaps all the slash I have consumed has made me prefer the possibility of open interpretation.
- I wish I was kidding, but I have also begun to ship Mike and Brian. It makes so much sense to me I contemplate writing fic (still not kidding, sorry). I think Mike is sweet when he gets all assertive with Brian in the last episode. If there has ever been a "if you don´t find it, write it yourself"-situation, this must be one. Surely no-one else is as "creative" as I?
- Not to mention that Daisy/Tim/Mike somehow became a valid OT3 along the way. I just might have some kind of a friendship kink.
- Brian=my father if he would have been into painting instead of becoming a lawyer! Father is just as, eh, inventive in his thought patterns as Brian and he and Mark Heap even look similar. This is actually kind of creepy. Also Father, bless him, would consider Sounds of Despair a fine piece of entertainment.
I love Spaced and reasonably priced clothes. Clothes I have got, now I just need more Spaced icons.
