Heeee! Thank you! I LOVE the song choice here, if only because I have secretly longed for a sultry Guy/Marian film noir AU where she's a sexy lounge singer and he's a dirty cop and basically it'd be like that episode of Moonlighting:

...And, yes, I totally have that song on my personal, massive, and possibly incriminating-to-my-taste Guy/Marian playlist.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!! It seems somehow unfair that for your birthday, we get this awesome post! The gifting is all backwards!! The glorious wonders of your Robin Hood picture folder! CRAIG AND BRIDGET BEING SO CUTE, JOSH AND MATTHEW AND EVY BEING SO CUTE (I did not even know those pictures existed!!), THERE IS A LOT OF CUTE FOR MY HEART TO DEAL WITH RIGHT NOW.

ANYWAY. I am, of course, busting out the youtube, because that's just what I do.

Richard/Kahlan + Florence & The Machine + Unstoppable Sexiness = GOOD.

Random Supernatural attack! I know. I'm sorry. But there's something in their awkward staring that distinctly exudes Morning After Drunken Hookup vibes, and I feel like every girl deserves two gorgeous men regarding each other in such a light on her birthday. Bonus points if one of them is a ~dreamy angel~!

In which Merlin grapples with that timeless question: why is Arthur being such a dickhead?

This is like a GLORIOUS SHRINE to Psych's most hilarious hilarity! With Mika!

Garfunkel & Oates rap the greatest of ( ... )

Richard and Kahlan! Fighting, dancing, it's all good! I think this video is so precious.

And, lastly, gloriously--

HAPPY BDAY, HOMES! :D

My favorite thing to come out of The Wicker Man phenomenon:

...and this is why I can never completely begrudge the fact that Nicholas Cage continues to make films.

The happiest Buffyverse vid OF ALL TIME. It makes me grin every time I watch it.

Your picspam is the most heinous of heinousnesses.

THANK YOU!!! I LOVE PURE FEEL-GOOD FANVIDS. One of my all-time faves in the genre -- well, gosh, forgive me, but I can't remember... did you ever check out Leverage or not? Well, regardless (it really doesn't need much fandom context), this vid never fails to cheer me up:

And, gurrrrl, I hope you mean heinous in a good way! I mean what could possibly be wrong with King-Kong!Robin and T-Rex!Guy-of-Gisborne doing battle? What, pray tell?? (And then I distracted you with boobs, because that's just how I roll.)

I haven't seen Leverage yet! But I should.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

I offer a couple of fun pressies for you:

ETA: apparently incapable of embedding vids, so:

Seeker Awesomeness

The next pressie is based on this commercial that hasn't stopped amusing me after repeated viewings (it's not the actual pressie... it's kind of half a pressie...)

commercial

So here's what's based on that:

Happy Merlin funtiemz

And a few things from my "macros" tag in Photobucket (some of which you may have seen, but hopefully they will still give you a giggle):

Oh, dearest, this made my day INFINITELY more fun! Point by point, because you have crammed so much into one magical Mary Poppins bag of a comment:

-I love that there are so many Seeker fans in RH fandom! (Really, it does make sense, considering that there are also a ton of Xena fans in Hood fandom as well -- but, still! It's so nice to see familiar faces when jumping into something new.) And, ha, the person who commented with this: "Okay, if you try you even hear "I love Darken Rahl" instead of "Rock n Roll" :D" So! True! I am a sucker for ridiculous puns. Also, I see that you are already a member of sword_of_lies so you've probably already seen this, buuuuut super great Seeker/Kanye macros (this meme may be dead, but this post still cracked me up).

-I had seen the original commercial before, BUT NOT THE MERLIN-IZED VERSION. I CAN DIE HAPPY NOW. Funny + shirtless Bradley = automatic win.

-Hahahaha, I actually had not seen the Guy/Vaysey toast macro before (or if I had, I've forgotten -- but how could I forget anything so... hmm... what's the ( ... )

LMFAO at the Kahlan cleavage Kanye macro!!!!! *dies lol'ing*

I JUST saw the Merlin commercial yesterday morning, and immediately watched it about five more times before going to share it. :D

...I...I...had forgotten than it wasn't common knowledge that I made that. *hides* Yerp, I'm the perp. ;D (As well as of this one, while I'm outing myself. :D) I heart out-of-context screencaps; there's some GOLD in those, lol.

I LOVE YOU. SERIOUSLY. I'M SURE YOU ALREADY KNOW THIS, BUT IT BEARS FREQUENT REPETITION.

DID YOU JUST CALL MY MOM A WHORE IN FRENCH. WHAT.

I.
DON'T.
EVEN.
KNOW.

BUT GODDAMN YES YES YES THE UNFAIRNESS OF GUY/MARIAN WILL HAUNT ME UNTIL MY DEATHBED. LIKE, LITERALLY, THEY WILL SEND FOR THE PRIEST TO GIVE ME MY LAST RITES OR WHATEVER NO THEY WON'T BECAUSE I'M NOT CATHOLIC BUT WHO CARES AND I'LL BE LIKE "WAAAAAAIT I CAN'T MAKE MY PEACE WITH GOD UNTIL I UNDERSTAND WHAT HAPPENED IN THE S2 FINALE WHAAAAAT," AND ALL OF MY GRANDCHILDREN WAITING AROUND THE EDGES OF THE BED WILL START CRYING BECAUSE GRANNY HAS FINALLY LOST IT AND MUST BE VERY CLOSE TO THE END.

...BIRTHDAYS MAKE ME MORBID. WHATEVER

SO INSTEAD I WILL WATCH THIS AND REJOICE:

YES YES YES YES ASHES TO ASHES!

YESSSSSS

I'M ALWAYS HESITANT WHEN I REC IT BECAUSE, WHILE I DO LOVE IT, I LOVE IT FOR MY OWN VERY STRANGE NEUROTIC PERSONAL REASONS THAT I DON'T KNOW WOULD TRANSLATE WELL FOR EVERYBODY ELSE, BUT I THINK YOU MIGHT LIKE IT -- AND IF NOT IN TERMS OF PLOT/CHARACTER, CERTAINLY IN TERMS OF STYLISTICS/STORYTELLING.

DAMN AWESOME FAN TRAILER. IT SAYS SPOILERS THROUGH S2 BUT... I DON'T THINK IT REALLY SPOILS ANYTHING?

DOING MY TAXES
I READ THAT AS "DOING MY TEXAS." UHHH ANYWAY.

AND THANK YOU FOR REMINDING ME THAT I INCLUDE *NO TREK* IN THE ORIGINAL POST! HOW THE HECK DID I MANAGE THAT ONE??!?!
