★002 » Fandom (Rome)
A huge thank you to absolutelybatty who introduced me to Rome! I had initially planned to watch just the Pilot last night, but totally ended up watching three straight episodes. *__* Rome is awesome and dangerously addictive. I think I find it even more addictive than, dare I say it, Game of Thrones. And that's saying a lot, 'cause I love my Game of Thrones.

Watched the fourth and fifth episode this morning. SAM, I HAVE SO MANY FEELINGS. I can't believe Titus knows about Niobe's affair! And worse, he knows about Niobe and Evander's baby! I'm worried about how Lucius will react to the news, 'cause I just know that Titus will tell him. Bloodthirsty Octavian scares the living daylights out of me. And Atia has done it now -- I was under the impression that Servilia had a gentle heart and wouldn't hurt even a fly, so you can imagine my disbelief when she cursed both Atia and Caesar. That scene was extremely chilling. Go Servilia ( ... )

I KNOOOOOOW. Ugh, the fact that Niobe was unfaithful (even if the circumstances are totally understandable; she thought he was dead!) just ripped my heart out. YOU HAD SO MUCH PROMISE, SHIP; WHY CAN'T YOU JUST BE HAPPY?! Servilla's cursing scene is probably the scariest thing I've ever seen in my life. She aced that scene like a boss; I cannot even. That's, imo, her most bad ass scene though. Atia is always the HBIC of the two of them, I think.
Game of Thrones always ends so quickly! I always feel like I've barely begun to watch anything. Although, honestly, I'd really just love to have an hour of whatever Arya is doing right now. That assassin guy she's hooked up with is freaking awesome. But you're right. GoT is a little slow compared to Rome. I think GoT puts too much emphasis on complex plot lines, and they take so long to sort out whereas Rome just barrels through. it probably has something to do with the source material.
I think, maybe, had we seen more of If Then Owen, we'd see the similarities ( ... )

My love for Lucius/Niobe just keeps growing with every episode -- damn it, they better get their happy ending or I will be one pissed customer.
I couldn't contain myself when Cleopatra ordered Lucius to have sex with her -- his reaction was hilarious! XD
Lucius and Titus stranded on an island was fun to watch and made for some awesome dialogue! Say, I wouldn't mind being stranded with just the two of them on a deserted island.
Can't say I was surprised by Octavian/Octavia, but I totally didn't expect Servilia/Octavia! :D I've never quite liked Octavia, but Servilia is just getting more badass (and creepy!) with each passing episode. Love really can change you. Servilia getting attacked in the streets was horrifying though ( ... )

Anyway, I just wanted to check in with you and see how things were going! And to say that from the little bit we've had to talk, I think you are flawless and that I approve of your icon commenting policy. PLEASE CONTINUE BEING A POSITIVE INFLUENCE ON EVERYTHING YOU TOUCH. I'm just assuming you know why I am saying this, okay? If you don't know, IGNORE ME AND CONTINUE BEING AMAZING.
In other news, I haven't seen grey's Anatomy yet. Have you? IS IT AMAZING? WILL MY HEART HURT?

I wish they explored the Brutus and Cassius friendship more. I kinda, kinda shipped them too. ;)
Ooh, I've obviously missed something! What happened? Another blow up at iconsecrets or something? I'm sorry, I'm sooo behind! Gotta start catching up with my friends' page. But shucks, thank you for your kind words! You made my day ( ... )

SHE RANDOMLY LAID ON TOP OF HIM. AND THEN HE WAS HER PERSON. AND THEN THEY WERE AWESOME. AND THEN SHE DECIDED TO RAIN ON HIS PARADE AND LEAVE. HOW DO WE EVEN HAVE ANOTHER SEASON? ARE THEY ALL GOING TO CHANGE THEIR MINDS BECAUSE OF THE PLANE? WHAT. HOW. FEELINGS. OWEN AND HIS FACE.
...and that sums up most of my feelings. Except go Alex because, damn, boy lucked out with finishing first there.
ALSO THIS EPISODE BASICALLY KILLED ALL MY SHIPS. WEIRD CRIS AND MER SCENES MAKE ME SAD. NO OWEN/CRIS MAKE UPS (NOT REALLY) MAKE ME EXTRA SAD. CRYING EVERYWHERE.
Okay now those are all my feelings ( ... )

In hindsight, I'm thinking I misinterpreted the scene where Cristina told Mer that Owen was her person. What if that scene was meant to show Cris coming to realize that Owen (despite being her person) subconsciously wanted to hurt her back and betrayed her by cheating on her? What if she realized that she couldn't stay with Owen because your person shouldn't want to hurt you at all, under any circumstances. Is this a possibility? Or am I just being pessimistic here? I JUST DON'T GET IT AND MY HEAD ( ... )
