More skating than you can shake a stick at (Part 1)

[misskittye]

I swear I will try to make this as interesting as possible. It's just there were two skating shows and two skating competitions and my two chosen ships, Johnny Weir/Stephane Lambiel and Adam Rippon/Jeffrey Buttle were in fine form. Boys who should kiss! Doesn't that interest everyone

UGH I LOVE THEM. I know I've said it before, but I will say it again -- over and over again! -- I REALLY LOVE THEM. *____________*!

[misskittye]

Every time I think I know how much I love them they do something like vamp to Tik Tok and I find myself like WHIMPERING for how happy I am that they're so happy. Is that not ridiculous?

I just like seeing them so giggly and free. Stephane is on FIRE and Johnny's divalicious and GOD I hope they celebrated in the dirty way.

I WANT ALLLLL THE VIDEOS. God, I am so out of it with school & the hours teaching/observing in the classroom. GIMME ALL EVIDENCE AND YOUR THOUGHTS AND SPECULATION AND GOSSIP. I WANT IT ALL. *cough* I mean, you're busy, too, so as much as you can/want to ramble about.

[misskittye]

I will have to get back to you on the videos. I've failed in my mission to remember to favorite things. (Why do I always forget to bookmark what makes me happy? WHY?) But I WILL get back to you!

As for speculation and gossip, well. lol! I'm not sure I have much perspective anymore! It's all just hearts in my eyes and glitter and the vague notion that every time they cuddle the world gets a little more fabulous!

Okay have you seen this?: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3UQbgyDeoo

At 2:00 minutes in Johnny and Stephane skate holding hands and then Stephane jerks Johnny towards him and they spin a little. And then they skate of chatting and bumping into each other.

THEIR LOVE IS PURE!

PSSST! There is also QUITE a lot of touching and giggling in this video.

Everything from this weekend is SO AMAZING. EVERYTHING. I am filled with fannish glee.

GOD. It was like I could never stop being tipsy on all the awesome. If there wasn't gorgeous skating there was flirting and if there wasn't flirting there was Brian Joubert attempting flamenco. It was fantastic.

That gif of 2005 Johnny and Stephane is so adorable I could DIE.

And omg, everything that has come out of ATS LA has been amazing. The first time I watched that video of Stephane flirtily beckoning Johnny to follow him I made a noise that I'm pretty sure could only be heard by dogs. But really, EVERY video of tik tok and the bboy number has made me so gleeful. So much ridiculousness! So much prancing and saluting! So much touching! So much of their happy smiling faces! I actually downloaded a bunch of the videos from youtube - I never know when I might need some pure, undiluted joy in my life.

I love that Let the Good Times Roll has basically become Stephane doing everything he can to get a reaction and screams from the audience. He's totally working it and I love it.

Also? I need to know where I can get a sequin-lined hoodie of my very own. That thing is fantastic.

That .gif is the most adorable. Everything they do is the MOST adorable. When we get a flood of stuff like this I just bounce from one gleeful squee to the next, I swear.

Y'know I wish I had video editing software. I would dilute these 8 and 16 second clips of touching into one Greatest Hits of ATS LA video and then probably overdose on the cute of it.

Stephane is riding such a high right now. I love it. So much travel and skating and Johnny people to cuddle. It's like he's in heaven. I love it when his smile is almost too big to be contained. I love that he's going for quads and camping it up and he just looked so FREE during this show. It was wonderful.

And Johnny's BBoy outfit was scandalous and fantastic all at the same time. I just imagine him striding out in those pants and with all that sparkle and Stephane and Scott and Patrick Chan all shifting uncomfortably by where their thoughts have suddenly fled.

A greatest hits of ATS LA video would be fantastic, if only I knew how to do something like that! But I fear that such concentrated cuteness could disrupt the fabric of the universe or something. It's a risk I would be willing to take though.

Camping it up! Yes that is EXACTLY it. What I really love about Stephane at these shows is that he is so caught up in the excitement and the the crowd and the people that he skates all of the cheesy group choreography like he really believes it. There is no phoning it in. It's so gleeful and earnest and unself-conscious and I LOVE it.

The fact that the show said "bboy number" and that's what Johnny chose to wear pretty much sums up everything I love about him. Skintight pants and a sequined hoodie! And I notice that Sephane's jeans for that number are pretty baggy. I'm just saying.

Your post is a walk down memory lane! I thanked Jeremy for his twitter Q&A and said so many of my friends from my forum were thrilled to have their questions answered.

I'm psyched you put my video in your post! God, that was lolarious. I miss ATSLA like burning. I have 4 _skaters coming over on Sunday to watch it with me.

[misskittye]

Thank you for thanking Jeremy. Somehow my southern manners allowed me to forget to do that. He was so friendly and great.

It was just me and my BFF watching ATSLA on TV and the whole time I was smiling thinking about what I knew happened but that wasn't being shown to the cameras. Today's round of recap posts made me sniffle a little again with envy, but I'm ready to wait patiently for the next time he comes to America.

(BTW YOU TOUCHED HIS HAIR. I'M DYING!)
