I have a half an hour to myself right now.

60-second-rant, GO!

ARRRGGHH work has been crazy. For no reason at all. I had five classes yesterday, and four each day two days before that, and today I have three. And it came at the worst time because my back is hurting (don't know how I hurt it) and being on my feet all day isn't helping. And I haven't been able to RP at ALL because I come ( Read more... )

Julian, please.

*First of all let me say that Julian is YUMMY. That is the best word I can think of to describe him. He's calm and mysterious and, in my opinion, sort of quietly sexy. And he surprised me with his dark sense of humor when I first read the novel. I absolutely love what my sister's done with the character. ♥ The other soft spot I have for Julian is that he's under my Sign. My sister recently told me that she wouldn't have known a lot about how to write for him if she wasn't so close to me. (And, oddly, I feel like she's been learning a lot about me by writing this book.) Our personalities are very similar-- quiet and reserved, with a tendency to even come off as stand-off-ish or stuck-up, but empathetic and possessing a secret and sometimes repressed desire for the very deepest form of intimacy ( ... )

I kind of have to ask you about Data.

*Data will never fail to hit my soft spot. Between Brent Spiner's acting and the way the writers shaped his journey, he surprised me time and time again with how much his story affected me emotionally. I knew right away that I would like him, though, as soon as the concept of his character was described to me over a documentary. I'm always fascinated with characters that have different sets of challenges from their peers.

*Oh, gosh. Well, I am especially fond of shipping Data with Tasha Yar. I also thought Jenna D'Sora was absolutely adorable, and the whole Borg Queen thing was oddly... well, as Data might put it, "intriguing." But I also have a tendency to slash things all over the place, so I've enjoyed shipping him with Geordi, Picard, Riker, and even Worf.

*I should absolutely have to answer this question with Geordi, for reasons that are OBVIOUS, but just to be different I'm not going to. I am in love with the vibe that Data and Captain Picard have in the canon. It's almost like a father/son relationship, except it's more ( ... )

*I love Lore. You can tell that Mr. Spiner had SO much more fun playing him, and I can see why. I relate to him in some strange way-- he's chidish, really, emotional and selfish. Also, I'm really glad he exists in canon, because in a lot of ways he makes more sense than Data. You know, the whole rebellious A.I. trope-- there's a reason it works so well; it's logical ( ... )
