tales from the avengers cubicle, mobile edition: part 324
Michael Fassbender keeps doing things that are making me like him as opposed to being indifferent towards him. (Like him, guys. Be interested in him. Not like... anything even remotely CLOSE to my James McAvoy Problem.)
brilligspoons: I saw some behind the scenes pictures on Tumblr [from that bed photoshoot in THR] and I wasn't really impressed. It was kind of washed out and boring.
pocky_slash: There have been two photoshoots in the past week that have him in bed! I mean, I know it's his big break and he's playing a sex addict and is actually naked in the movie, but can we please do something more interesting? I actually liked the cracky trainyard thing because it was different.
brilligspoons: I know, right? Can't we change it up? Put him in a clown suit or something--at least it will be new.
pocky_slash: McAvoy's like, "Oh my god, why can't I do an interview in a clown suit? I'd be up for that! Please? I have my own clown suit I can bring!"
brilligspoons: He uses it to put Brendan to sleep every night!
pocky_slash: Anne-Marie is like, "Honey. We need to talk."
brilligspoons: In a couple of year's that kid's gonna grow up and be like, "Mom? What are the syrup faries? And why is Daddy so scared of them?"
pocky_slash: Are you kidding? In a couple years that kid's gonna be like, "Mom, what's wrong with Daddy? Why is he crazy? Other people aren't like that!"
brilligspoons: Anne-Marie's like, "Daddy's just special."
pocky_slash: She's like, "Fucking Cumberbatch! Jesus Christ, now our kid's fucked up too!" Cumberbatch is like, "It's not my fault your husband is so dumb! And if you'd let me raise him like my own like I wanted--" "You can't just take other people's kids, Cumberbatch! I know about Martin's kids, okay? We talk. There are only twenty British actors, you think we don't know each other?"
brilligspoons: In a couple years Brendan's gonna be like, "I think I want to go live with Uncle Benedict now."
pocky_slash: Cumberbatch is like, "::fist pump:: FINALLY."
pocky_slash: And, I have to admit, another thing I really like is how every time someone asks either Fassbender or McAvoy about the X-Men sequel in interviews their first comment is always, "Well, I want to sit down and talk to James about some things" or "I need to talk to Michael so we can work through what's going on." I'm really glad that they're both so invested in the characters in the silly superhero movie they did, even now that they're all big stars and stuff.
brilligspoons: Me too. I hope they call each other to talk about it.
pocky_slash: Oh my god, like, every night. And because McAvoy is twelve in my head I'm sure it's like, "Honey, you need to get off the phone now." "Oh, sorry, Michael. Anne-Marie needs the phone. It's almost bedtime. I'll call you tomorrow!"
brilligspoons: Fassbender's like, "Sure thing. Can you give Anne-Marie the phone please? I need to talk to her."
pocky_slash: I'm glad that, in my head, McAvoy is twelve and everyone else is an adult. Including his kid.
