Some general questions. I’ve seen Sulu refer to ‘Pasha’ a couple of times. Who is he talking about?
Does anyone have any links to videos of male ballet dancers? I mean yeah, I shall have a look on youtube but if there’s anything/anyone I should check out let me know. Even if it’s ‘so and so is a great famous dancer search for him’ that would be super-helpful.
What do they call male ballet dancers anyway?
Part IV of Syndicate has been completed by the way. If you did not read up to the ‘Stay Dangerous, Baby,’ line you might want to go finish it.
Here it is. Any comments or concrit would be welcome. I'm going for a suspense type feel here so would be grateful of any pointers on how to build up the tension properly and whether you felt that the pay-off worked and if it was too contrived.
Also did you think this was too dark? (Because if you did then hoo boy, best stop reading now.)
There seems to be some residual confusion about the Aus so I’m going to try and clear that up. Abysmal Bodies is not an AU of The Misadventures of the Prime Directive. It is an AU of Star Trek XI. Although you could call it an Alternative Parallel to Syndicate because the two share some superficial elements such as Hikaru’s shuriken and his scar. At least this is how they fit in my head.
But the two universes of Syndicate and Abysmal Bodies will not at any point overlap.
Songs for Hikaru-Sama
For Hikaru-Sama of Abysmal Bodies. Mainly focussing on the Comrade. And hey you even get songs, this time!
Song to Say Goodbye - Placebo
Before our innocence was lost
You were always one of those
Blessed with lucky sevens
And a voice that made me cry
Because even crazy homicidal Mafia-bosses were young and innocent once. (I’m working out some back-story fics for these two. This might make more sense then.)
Poison - Alice Cooper
I hear you calling and it’s needles and pins
I want to hurt you just to hear you screaming my name
Everyone and their mother has used this song but it’s the second line that I’m interested in.
Pretty When You Cry - VAST
I didn’t want to hurt you, but you’re pretty when you cry...
If you knew how much I loved you, you would run away
But when I treat you badly it just makes you want to stay.
‘ ... Like you too, you poor twisted little -‘ (from Four Minutes)
Get Stoned - Hinder
Without a doubt; All the break up is worth the makeup sex you're giving me
Lets hash it out; Cause your bitching and your yelling don't mean anything
Don't count me out; I can handle all the baggage that you're carrying
You wear me out; But it's all right now
Let's go home and get stoned
We could end up making love instead of misery
Go home and get stoned
Cause the sex is so much better when you're mad at me
Well it is.
One more just for fun -
My Life Would Suck Without You - Kelly Clarkson
I know that I've got issues, but you're pretty messed up too
Either way, I found out I'm nothing without you
'Cause we belong together now, yeah
Forever united here somehow, yeah
You got a piece of me
And honestly,
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you
Being with you is so dysfunctional
I really shouldn't miss you but I can’t let you go
Don’t tell Hikaru-Sama. He’d kill me if he knew that I knew. And that I’d used Kelly Clarkson.
I was going to put in some songs for Syndicate!Hikaru but they involve major spoilers that spoil so I won’t.
One more song for Sydicate!Pavel for Part IV posted last night (but applicable to most of the Syndicate)
Paparazzi - Lady Gaga
I’m your biggest fan, I’ll follow you until you love me
Papa- paparazzi
Baby, there’s no other superstar you know that I’ll be
Your papa-paparazzi
Promise I’ll be kind
But I won’t stop until the boy the boy is mine
Baby, you’ll be famous, chase you down until you love me
Papa-paparazzi
I should probably just tell you to download The Fame and call it Pavel’s personal soundtrack.
Let me know if there’s any problem with the download links!!
