The noblest teddy of them all

Sep 02, 2011 14:53

I got a lovely surprise in the post today - an early birthday present from my dear hoc_voluerunt, and I love him so much, I'm just going to picspam you all with him. I didn't think it was possible for any Brutus to be more adorable than James Mason or Tobias Menzies, but she proved me wrong...

( Adorableness behind the cut... )

my awesome friends, awesome things, geeky things, brutus, brutus bear

Wait wait - who are the hotties in your avatar? Do you have bigger pics of them? It's so frustrating to google for JC and find Eurotrash-y shit. I want them in sexy togas!

It's Tobias Menzies and Guy Henry in Rome. Here, I saved a few (incredibly slashy!) promo pics. :)

Awwww.

But I watched Philipppi from this and was like "WTF it didn't happen that way".

Yeah, the show has its fair share of inaccuracies, but what it does get right, it gets amazingly right, if that makes sense. And to be honest, when I got to Philippi, I was too busy whimpering into my pillow to care about the inaccuracies. XD

AAAAAH. AAAAAAAAAAHHH!! BB BRUTUS, YOU ARE ALL FUZZY. WHY ARE YOU FUZZY? (Is there a Latin word for "fuzzy"? I bet there is, and I'm going to find it.) AH! HIS WEENTSY DAGGER! I STILL DON'T KNOW WHY HE'S FUZZY!

Ooh! Tell me when your birthday is so I can make you something! (It probably won't be nearly as awesome as this, but I'll try.) Insert heartbreaking "cinnamon" comment here.

Closest Latin relative to "fuzzy" that I can find: "pilosus". CLOSE ENOUGH!

Also, I entirely approve of your DVD collection. I made one of my friends watch 53 with me last week, and I think she kind of shipped Brutus and Cassius, but mostly she was fixated on Brutus and Lucius. I DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS. I WAS QUOTING ROMEO AND JULIET AT THE END AND EVERYTHING. But no, it was all "heh... 'instrument'." Bah.

HE'S FUZZY BECAUSE... BECAUSE... BECAUSE IT'S AN OUTWARD FAVOUR REPRESENTATION OF HIS NOBLE WORTH. WHICH MANIFESTS ITSELF IN FUZZINESS. CLEARLY.

My birthday's on the 14th. You don't need to make me anything, considering you sent me the Rome series two OST just the other week. :) AUGH, cinnamon. Why would you even?? My mum bought cinnamon cakes and every time I look at them, I'm just all DD8

Looking at that photo, it's only now I realise how much random shit I have in my DVD collection. XD

(Oh man, I haven't watched '53 in ages! This must be rectified at once!) But your friend... why would you even want to fixate on Brutus and Lucius?! Why?! DD8

OBVIOUSLY! LIKE AN EAGLE! EAGLES ARE FUZZY... BABY EAGLES? NO?

Ah! Right! I also found a bunch of tracks from s1 that weren't on the actual soundtrack (including "Plot Caesar's Murder"), want me to send you those too? DO THEY MAKE YOU SNEEZE?? ;_; I'm sorry, I just have a lot of feelings... and I wanted to share them... now my instinct here is to apologize for spoiling your birthday and make it up to you with promises of a better one next year, but that's no good either.

I like Sherlock sandwiched between Julius Caesar and MST3K. :P And the RSC is a nice touch.

I don't know!! D: I think she was amused by him falling asleep at his harp, though. And at Brutus waking up, glaring at the taber, then going back to sleep. (I guess... something about sleepy people?) Oh, and Antony's muscles. Because.. ANTONY'S MUSCLES.

We should liveblog it! Are you free next weekend?

verecunda September 7 2011, 12:47:46 UTC

YES. BECAUSE EAGLE = ROME. Really feel like watching The Eagle now... SO BEING FUZZY LIKE AN EAGLE MEANS YOU'RE

Yeah, if you don't mind. :) (gimmegimme) Thank you! It's okay. My birthday should still be fine, provided my slave doesn't tell me that my best friend has gone and died when he hasn't really...

XD More or less sums up what goes on in my brain, really. The Rome boxset sitting next to Jurassic Park amuses me greatly for some reason.

I just... I don't get it... D:

Ooh, that's an awesome idea! :DD I'll be busy for a couple of hours on Saturday afternoon, but I'll be free any other time apart from that!
