Kinky Idol Mirrors

May 31, 2006 09:42

Mirror, MirrorReturning to Montreal, I looked into a mirror: I have churches for eyes, a cobbled tongue, St. Laurent hair. It was the first time I ever realized in a thousand-flashing-lightbulb way the extent that the city's inscribed on my bones...Or, truer yet, that my skeleton's made of Montreal ( Read more... )

You're alive! *glomps*

I didn't know you were a Quebecoise. Interessant.

Hee! Yes, very much alive at the moment, babe! And, yeppers, I'm a Quebecoise, although of the Anglo variety, a relatively rare breed.

I've been missing you! Ooh, nice icon. And what have you been up to??

Also, when are you joining my new shiny Canadian fandom?? How can I lure you??

It's always a pleasure to chat with you, Lobelia! You make LJ extra sparkly.

And what's your new fandom? I've been in Montreal for the last couple of weeks (and the 'rents only have dial-up) so I'm hors du loop.

Stargate Atlantis! I have been posting! It's the fandom that ended my 2-year drought of posting! It is a shlocky TV-based fandom but heh, whom am I telling this? You know all about that! But I've never been in a TV-based fandom with episodes and papier mache sets and fourth-rate actors, it is so exciting! There are *songvids* (does SV have songvids?). And astrophysicist geeks in space! And um, *points to icon*

Bwha! I knew about SGA, but for some reason it didn't register as "Canadian," despite being filmed locally. I quite like the show myself, though mostly to drool over Ronan and to shiver over the Wraith (who are surely the best tv villains in years).

Now I must get ready for my monthly department meeting. Pity me! Now there's a group of people I wouldn't mind serving as Wraith food... *g*

I had one run-in with people from my so-called department and it traumatised me for a week of my sabbatical so I sympathise! We need the wraith! We need them to feed feed feed on t'rabble of our existences.

I love the wraith. Lotrips did not have villains; evil does not really go with rps. It is lovely (yes, I choose that word with deliberation!) to have evil. I am currently writing wraith slash; it is very angsty, needless to sex but the feeding is just too deliciously like sex to be passed over. I am having wraith pov! And it's written all in capitals. And I'm giving them not a soul but an almost-soul. Because they're not evil from the inside; only their food finds them evil. And they are teh sexy, they really are, with their Goth leather coats and their Legolas hairdos and their little beards like something out of Marco Polo's travels ( ... )

P.S. So Canadians don't see this show as a home-grown show?

I can't speak for all Canadians, but it doesn't seem particularly Canadian to me for various reasons, first and foremost being that it's not set in Canada, unlike Da Vinci's Inquest or Cold Squad, etc.

lobelia321 June 8 2006, 22:21:15 UTC

Da Vinci's inquest? Cold squad? I have never heard of these things, ack. Well, SGA is not set in Canada but then it's not set in the USA, either! And it's filmed in Canada! Just like Lord of the Rings is totally New Zealand although it's set in Middle Earth. *g*
