On one hand, I want to watch
Cairo Time because of...let's face it, Alexander Siddig. On the other hand, I'm really worried that I would cringe at all the romantic elements in that movie. I would like to squash any and all Mary Sue tendencies before they start (might be too late already, though).
It's odd, I suppose--I seriously want to Mary Sue Garak, but not Andrew Robinson (who, in
dissociate's words, is like a genial old man living down the street.) On the other hand, while I am not captivated by Julian in a romantic sense, I am clearly drawn to Siddig's other roles on screenboth from Cairo Time and Kingdom of Heaven. Perhaps it's the in-your-face exoticism in terms of the setting.
Speaking of Julian, though, I want to record a certain conversation which took place. You know, for posterity and all.
A: You know those Bajoran earrings?
B: Yeah?
A: Julian needs to get one. For his cock.
B: Oooh, what for?
A: So Garak can tug on it.
I do so love the simple elegance of fangirl logic.
