Gilderoy was a last minute addition. Originally, it was just some guy, but then I thought, "What if the character was some idiot fop? What if it was LOCKHART?" And, lo, my day was made.

I really dig the new costumes. And anyone looking even vaguely like Jareth has got to be a good thing.

Other than the Death Eaters, the costumes look pretty much the same. At least they changed something; thankful for small favors and all that.

Oooh, shiny. What a pretty, pretty entry in your tale. I loved all the colors. Did it take you forever to think of them all, or did you just copy the liner notes from Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat?

I especially loved: "Loden? That's not a color. They made that up."

This from Lucius.

It was a marvelous, marvelously funny vignette, and I'm so very glad that you wasted your valuable time writing it so I could waste my valuable time reading it.

Actually, to find the names, I went on-line and looked up color charts and picked out some of best non-normal color names. I didn't even think of Jospeh until I'd written about half the colors, but I did use a few of the colors in that song I hadn't used and really liked. Sadly, I couldn't use the actual song because it had normal colors in it.

Lucius may not know much, but he knows his colors.

Thank you!

I wonder if the Death Eaters' were inspired by The Man in the Iron Mask for their new look. Also, Lucius and Lockhart? Clearly should open their own paraphanelia store with that name.

Yeah, the masks totally made me think of the promotional posters for Man in the Iron Mask, except more fashionable.

L&L Accessories would be awesome. They would dominate the market with their good sense and quality products.

Okay, maybe not. But they'd look fabulous trying.

I can't imagine WB letting them make an 'R' rated HP if just because it would cut down their box office. It would be a totally awesome extended edition when they come out with box sets, though.

I love Lucius too. He's so...not evil here.

Masques... musicalqueen101 November 29 2006, 21:03:19 UTC
YAY!YAY!YAY!YAY!YAY! I was hoping you'd do one of these just about now.As always, prisinely amusing, thank you. I almost had a convulsion imagining Snape mimicking to Dolohov how they would talk without mouth holes.

I'm not so sure I like the masks. I think the change is good, but they're so...detailed. You really wouldn't think they'd care. Anywho, I guess they can't all look like the Phantom of the Opera. I'm so squealishly psyched for the 5th movie!!!

Thank you! I almost didn't have Snape do the mimicking, because it didn't seem like him, but decided it was not worth it to bring some other DE in for just one line.

I like the masks, though you're right about the detail. Sort of detracts from the "faceless evil" vibe, though they do look excellent. I am so ready for the next movie. All the still I've seen look amazing.
