Life, pimping and musicals

Haven't posted recently because I have been having internet issues (problem resolved yesterday and turned out to be a problem with the network cable so the fact that networking fell over just after I did an upgrade was just bad luck). This resulted in my not checking LJ much over the last week. Given I am now about 500 posts behind I think I will ( Read more... )

Oh I love that everyone seems to be falling for The State Within as much as I'd hoped! It's just such a gem of a series with all sorts of places you can take it and itneresting characters and plotlines I wasn't entirely sure what was going to happen.

(the whole Luke thing for starters which I watched with dawning horror and didn't get over for days)

I fear there is very little Nicholas/Mark actual fic out there. I've never seen fic anywhere but in state_within (if you go back to November/December last year when it was first aired there's a fair amount of fic but it's mainly Nicholas/Christopher with occasional others). Really there should be more. I sort of want *kids name* ahs Two Daddies fic...

Oh and whilst I didn't think Christopher/Lunne's son (because I think that was about replacement child) there was very definitely soemthing between her son and the silent guy (Vincent?) who was all assasinish and that was quite wonderful.

More crossover potential would be good, msotly it's been Bond and bits and pieces of Spooks stuff.

It is a wonderful series.

You and me both on the Luke thing, especially when you start realise what is going to happen and why. I was crying at the end. That is just damn good writing.

I found and joined the community yesterday and was really hoping there was more I hadn't found. I like Nick/Chris but they pretty much covered that in the show so I don't really feel the need for more unless it was about how their relationship started. I wonder how... innocent that was and who started it.

I can see the two daddy's thing. Especially if Mark reveals the evidence. Mark would pretty much have to resign at that point 'for family reasons' and I suspect that Nick wouldn't be allowed to keep his job if he let Mark get the information out... officially anyway. He is after all a duplicitous bastard *eg* That is a kid who is going to need so much therapy.

Oh, man, you know it. Especially when he puts together the fact that his phone call is what led Follically Challenged Man to James--who, I'm convinced, wasn't his biological father.

I like to think that he won't put together that his call was how they found James because unless they tell him (which seems unlikely) there was no way he would know that the phone was bugged. Now if Mark or Nicholas look at the phone records (which Nicholas might do) they might figure it out, which will be hard enough, but I think they will keep the information to themselves ( ... )

YAY! State Within!

The real reason I'm commenting (and after reading your bit about TSW I had to go back and remind myself why I was commenting lol) was to say 'omg The Transporter is HILARIOUS and wicked awesome fun! Transporter 2 is just as high ocatane and preposterous *G* Yay Jason Statham (he was an Olympic diver you know?)

There was some discussion of Statham having been a diver and how Transporter 1 was much better than Transporter 2, and not just because he didn't keep taking his top of in the sequal :-)

And indeed - yay, State Within as well.

It was fabulous seeing you again m'dear and than you for the birthday wishes!

And I'm so utterly pleased that The State Within so completely and successfully seized your attention. Between Slings and Arrows and The State Within I'm quite pleased at the level of pimping success. Although you inflicted Donald and Timmy on me in return ...:D

Enough that I am beginning to worry about them getting free and climbing out over the corpses.
