Only had half an eye on eps 7-> while nicking footage so no discussion as yet (other than le Duc=puddle, and Mme Vichot does my brain in in a good way). But ep 11... oohhhhh ep11. I can't sit here and not shout SQUEE with a mallet the size of fuckin' Woolworths.

And if you didn't see this coming, I have a lovely bridge you might be interested in... :)

The Ricordeau Remix :) happier than the fic, but I can't help that. As Sarlat says: for the count's son, anything is permitted...

Okay. So you knew I was going to do this :) FOR RIE AND AUGUSTUS.

Queer reading of the Wherton sequence in Tripods. Well, it's queer to me - it works equally well as a textual showcase, if you want to take that path. I'm going to label it slash but 'gen' is also true. (Up to a point, Lord Copper ( Read more... )

I should have known - I physically cannot walk away from the Ricordeau sequence. "Obsessive tendencies" my ass. How can something which is so... clumsily written, at times... be so compelling? Because it's not in the fucking *words*, is it. Except when it is. Um.

Or should that be "another US Tripods is slated for", etc. WTF? is this the same lot who grabbed the rights *last* time and stuffed up the S2 DVD release, may they rot in hell? or another lot? Or just an extended grab to keep the prod looking fresh?

In other news: after two years of Finking Abaht It am putting my Tripods stories up on WWOMB. Oh, all right, I'd forgotten all about being in the process of it... but there *was* some residual reluctance where they were concerned, 'cos they're my special babies. Bit the bullet, anyway. This way someone might actually read them ;-D Which would ( Read more... )
