A list of things that I find deeply fascinating today, in no particular order, by
jjtaylor, resident giant sleepy-head:
1. James Dewees - Having seen Leathermouth and Reggie and the Full Effect last night, I begin to understand why fandom has failed to integrate Dewees into fanon. I suspect he reads a little like Bert without the angsty Gerard backstory - dirty, both hilarious and lewd, a bit of a personal disaster, and very much part of an older hardcore scene to which we have no clear access through our bandom cast of characters. The thing that I find baffling, though, is that he's Frankie's old friend, and it's a wide open door that I can't believe we haven't walked through. It's instant access to the building blocks of a Dewees character backstory. Why doesn't he show up more often in more stories? I can't decide if that fascinates me more than Dewees himself.
2. Crumb cake - Specifically the crumb topping. See also: cold-brewed iced coffee.
3. Gerard Way's Victorian Vampire Detective Agency. You can bet Dewees is going to make an appearance. Maybe as a zombie-for-hire, because, you know, Frank is Gerard's valet and he just wants to help an old friend out! (Jesus Christ, like I don't have enough things to write. Victorian. Vampire. Detective. Agency.)
4. How I've managed to do anything at all today. I am so completely exhausted. Going to bed early, sleeping late. Maybe never leaving bed. Can research Victorian literature from there.
