Love don't come so easily.

GUYS. I AM JAZZED. I had this taste-bud pampering smoothie for dinner (because smoothies=wonderful, and smoothies for dinner=EPIC) and, just. Pineapple and strawberries and mango juice in blended combination are apparently the BEST ENERGY DRINK EVER

I was going to say that I liked the "Emotionally Unavailable" shot the best, but -- feet! Bare feet, crossed! Bwee.

Yes, I'm very odd. I know. I own it.

[trascendenza]

Heee! I'm a hands girl, myself. Give me a well placed hand or flash of wrist and I'm melted into a happy puddle. And rings, OH GOD, RINGS. I love guys wearing rings.

I own it.
*cheers you on* Owning the weirdness is the best thing we can do with it, if you ask me. ^^

[simplelyric]

Ooh, yes, I dig the hands, too, especially with rings. Among my favorites are images of Callum Keith Rennie's hands; if you're unfamiliar, get a glimpse in this video with clips from his Forever Knight episode. (Of course, CKR licking knives and kissing boys and doing all manner of other things are nice as well. Ahem.)

::grins:: That makes sense to me.

[trascendenza]

What is it about rings that is just so... nnnnnnngh. I was totally staring at that ring on his index wanting to lick it off. *g* And, geeze, hypnotic animation much? O_O

I also have no idea who that boy was that he kissed, but, um, would there be more? That was really yummy.

I'm right there with you.

Sadly, that's the only kiss [captured on film] between CKR and Don McKellar, despite CKR spending most of that movie, Last Night, committing sexual acts and despite the actors' having done at least two other projects together. But in CKR's film history there are pecks with Hugh Dillon, plus the extended knife-licking, from Hard Core Logo; almost-kisses with James Allodi (followed by a really sweet scene in which they essentially kiss with their hands, but I can't find a linkable clip of that, although I'd be willing to try to take some screencaps) from Wilby Wonderful; and "buddy breathing" and a certain section two minutes into this blooper reel with Paul Gross from due SOUTH. Or you can watch CKR make out with some girls. Way back when, there was also a short film starring CKR called Frank's Cock, but I'm not even sure I can figure out what I did with my videotape copy of that

[trascendenza]

O_O

Okay, I watched alllll those clips at once, and I think I may have OD'd a little on the yummy. Because, um, yummy. Quite a bit of it. That blooper reel was effing hilarious, good god. I've RPFed pairings for so much less than that. And the almost-kiss in Wilby Wonderful was so very sweet. *sniffs*

And seeing the whole knife-licking scene! Jesus! Repeated more than once no less! *makes incoherent arm gestures*

What I find funny about watching these vids is that the other times I've seen CKR he didn't really catch my eye. Fandom always has clips that change my mind, I swear. *g*

[meadowlion]

I'm glad you enjoyed yourself. *g*

There was an absolutely amazing PG/CKR fic circulating a few years ago, but I lost my copy when my old laptop died and haven't been able to get another copy since. ::sighs:: I've mostly only written bits and pieces, myself.

Had you seen much of CKR in action before, or primarily photos? He tends to be one of those people who is more attractive in motion, I think. It looks like you can find all these films (except Frank's Cock) at that place we know, if you're interested. I'd recommend Wilby the most.

[trascendenza]

Man, I hate losing fic. It sucks to be able to say, "Well, there *was* this amazing fic, but alas it only now exists in my memory." ;_;

Have you posted it? I have your fic journal bookmarked for a thorough perusal on a rainy day, so if you have, I'll have to keep an eye out for it ;)

Hmm, I think I've mostly seen him in guest starring roles, and usually playing someone scary, so I think that may have skewed my perception of him. I know what you mean about people who are more attractive in motion, though--most of the actors I love are that way. Pictures don't tend to do justice to the full combination of facial expressions, pitch of voice, etc.

I netflixed it. It looks worth watching on the big screen TV :D

[meadowlion]

I may finally be getting lucky on replacing my copy of that particular fic. Woo! I've been almost as disappointed over its loss as that of my own fiction, essays, poetry, etc. on the former laptop.

I've posted some of my due SOUTH-related RPS on my LJ, one unfinished Callum Keith Rennie/Paul Gross piece and one completed CKR/Don McKellar. (For various reasons, I don't do tags, but everything is at least categorized by fandom in my fic journal's Memories.) Between the laptop crash and the disappearance of the homepage for an old listserve, the rest of what I'd written of that is gone. And to be honest, I've barely looked at the two posted for a few years, so the quality may be questionable. ::shrugs

[trascendenza]

Hehe, I think I saw a post in your journal about that. Even though I had no idea what you were talking about, I read all the comments anyway, because I'm that cat curiosity is always killing. *g*

God, I miss the days when I only did memories. Tags are kind of evil, in a really addictive way. Memories are so blessedly straightforward, and so much easier to browse at a glance, not to mention the whole "5,000 tags for one tiny post of poems" thing.

Haha, sorry, I'm tangenting.

I cringe a lot when I think about losing writing. :-/ I mourn the loss of yours. Especially poetry, oh, poetry is irreplaceable :(

Dominic Purcell/Wentworth Miller
I... feel like I should know these names? *is sleepy*

Jake/Van! Oh, geeze. I am addicted to that pairing in such a huge and frightening way. Not that you need someone to enable you into them, but I am *so* up to the job if you do :D

I have Wilby sitting on my desk right now! My mom watched and it enjoyed it. I'll probably check it out tomorrow after work.

[simplelyric]

Hehe, I think I saw a post in your journal about that.

Yep! I'm thrilled someone still had it and could send it to me. I was only so secretive about it because a few years ago, after the story had already been circulating quietly between individuals -- never just posted to a list or Web site, as far as I know -- the authors told some people who told some other people who told the rest of us that the authors no longer wanted the story to circulate at all for some reason. So, I was kind of disrespecting their wishes by asking for it, I guess, but when I did already have the story before . . . ::shrugs::

Tags are kind of evil, in a really addictive way.

I can recognize a lot of advantages to them over the Memories, including subcategorizations that don't work as well with the latter, but among the aforementioned various reasons for my not using tags is the fact that I know I would get addicted.

Haha, sorry, I'm tangenting.

I am one with the tangential tendencies. Tangent away.

I cringe a lot when I think about losing writing

[trascendenza]

Yeah, I mean, if you had it before, it's not like anyone was sharing the story with a *new* audience, or anything.

Good Lord. Seven years is a *lot* of writing. I reel thinking about losing that much writing. That's good that it didn't hit you too hard, though; sounds like they served their function. In a way, for me, it would be a relief to lose all my stuff, almost like a clean slate (and no more obsessing over how to best organize it all in logical order), but I also know from a few unexpected hard drive crashes that it can send me into a deep funk that takes awhile to emerge from.

(Also, Purcell recently separated amicably from his wife.)
Haha, that gives *me* plot bunnies. It's like they're just giving you the perfect excuse to start :)

Uh, how about you enable away, but after Yuletide? }:-)My pleasure :D (OMG Yuletide, not thinking about it, not thinking about it...) I am a patient enabler. And my unofficial manifesto for 'shipping them probably won't be ready for another month or two, anyway, so. Assuming I ever

[meadowlion]

I still sometimes feel like I'm holding my mental breath waiting for the loss of the writing from my old laptop to slam me to the ground. Obviously I'm not hoping for that to happen, but the periodic sense of almost-dread is not pleasant either.

I haven't been quite as into Prison Break this year, which makes the RPS ideas in that fandom easier to resist; I think they're just biding their time.

How's that manifesto coming? Not that I don't still have other things to write, and to do in general, but I give you leave to enable your heart out now. =D
