From
amberlynne, who chose seven of my icons for me to explain. I seriously have nothing to do at work right now, so we'll see how much time I can kill with this meme:

Keyword: close your eyes and think of turtles
Comment: Sex in a crevasse, Ray?
Detective Ray Kowalski of
Due South, stuck in a crevasse, crotch-to-crotch with Benton Fraser (not pictured here). It's a play on "Close your eyes and think of England." Only with turtles, because Fraser canonically distracts Ray with turtles. Bless you for being weird, Due South!
by me
Keyword: gay pants
Comment: Really, I left my homosexual agenda in my other pants.
Oh, the gay pants icon festival of yore! Who started the gay pants icons? Was it
tzikeh?
Possibly yes! These pants might have a homosexual agenda. These pants invite you to search its pockets for it.

Keyword: not buddies
Comment: oh, world, how you get on my tits
"That's not buddies," is a quote from the movie
Hard Core Logo and possibly other Callum Keith Rennie roles. It is a protestation! For when things suck! It is a phrase that is probably Canadian in origin. You crazy Canadians.

Keyword: don't love me
Comment: Worst spy ever. Good thing he's pretty.
Oh, Tom Quinn from
British spy show Spooks (aired on BBC America as MI:5). He's the worst spy ever. Very pretty. Very tragic. Bad things happen to people who get close to him. Poor Tom.

Keyword: tony leung
Comment: in conclusion, my sekrit boyfriend
This is a crop from
a picture of Tony Leung in the film
2046. I didn't like the film, but oh man, Tony Leung! ♥♥♥ I also just really loved the artiness and the framing of his reflection.

This is an icon created by
ciderpress from
lim's illustration of the
Organization for Transformative Works' role as a non-profit umbrella org which fosters projects such as the Archive of Our Own, a wiki, a legal defense fund, and an academic journal.
It is the icon I should be using whenever I speak as a member of the OTW's Community Relations committee over at
otw_news.
by me
Keyword: card sharp
This is
Gambit from the X-Men comics, aka Remy LeBeau, aka a longtime major hardcore fictional crush of mine. He is a professional thief. He can blow things up. He is kind of bitchy and has a tragical past. Man, I have a type.
I'm no longer over the moon about him as teenage me was, but I have a fond place in my heart for his fine Cajun ass.
Any other icons y'all want me to explain?
