SAVE THE CHEERLEADER SAVE THE WORLD

( More about my imaginary fandom. I know, I know! I'm sorry! )

ANYWAY. In the world of REAL FANDOMS! I just watched Heroes 1x05, and oh my god, dudes. I feel like I should have lots and lots to say about this show, so it's really weird that I don't, not at all. All I have to say is BWEEEEEEEEEE THIS SHOW I LOVE YOU SO MUCH SQUEE SQUEE SQUEE. I am ridiculously in love.

On the list of things that fandom is making me do that I will probably regret in the near future:

a) I'm downloading Hard Candy for Ellen Page.

b) I signed up for rps_advent. Eeeep!

regenesis, heroes

Theory That Struck Me Today:

Caroline Morrison on "ReGenesis" is what Weir on SGA would be like if Weir was totally awesome.

Another Thing About Heroes::

Man, I know all the troublesome stuff about, you know, being totally evil and stuff, but nonetheless, I am in love with the relationship between Claire and her daddy. Because, seriously, I have a button a million miles wide. fox1013 and I were talking earlier about daddy issues; while much of fandom seems to have the "I've been a bad, bad little kid. Spank me!", we both have more of the "DADDY'S LITTLE GIRL WAAAAAAAAAH" thing going on.

There are lots of relationships that hit this button for me, but the classic is Jack and Sydney Bristow from Alias, which is my one true gen relationship FOREVER. Lilith and David on ReGenesis actually made me cry last night, in episode 1x08. Buffy and Giles, on the times when I'm not sexualizing them at all, can fulfill the same thing for me, despite the non-related-ness. Oh, and BSG: Kara and Adama are my favorite relationship on the show, even when I'm conflicted about everything else.

(Actually, a lot of the things that make me cry fit here. S2 Buffy and Giles, yep. Jack and Sydney, yep. My first year away at college, I came home and watched the freaking Land Before Time with my family and cried when Sarah the three-horn was reunited with her daddy. I don't even know!)

(And in comics! Babs and Jim Gordon! Roy and Lian! *sniffle*)

100x100 pretty

Also, I'm bored and stealing an icon meme from cathybites:

Look at my icons and then choose:

1. One icon that makes you automatically think of me.
2. One icon that you think I should TOTALLY use more often.
3. One icon that you don't get/needs more explanation/you have no idea why the hell I have it.
4. Comment using an icon of yours that you LOVE, and tell me why you picked THAT one too.

Uh, my extra icon space just ran out, but you should be still able to see them all, and obviously all of them are appropriate answers.

i am a dork!

So this evening I was working on this tutorial that I found from Lifehacker.

I started with this picture of Rachel McAdams:

And at the end of the tutorial I had this:

I am left with no possible conclusion except that OMG RACHEL MCADAMS IS SEKRITLY SANDMAN'S DEATH WTF. Cool.
