Intaglio 2.0

So, uh.

This movie. Does anyone know if it contains the Terrible Thing?

It. It should really be self-evident why I need to know this and why I NEED TO WATCH THIS FILM NOW LIKE RIGHT NOW.

Homework, what is that? What GPA? Who needs to eat when I could be watching this movie?

ETA: Oh, god; Keith David's in it, too. My fate? Sealed.

UHURA FINALLY GETS TO DO SOMETHING. YOU GUYS.

Well. Merry Christmas to you, too.

ajsdkfhjlkhs; AWESOME.

A good deal of backstory mangling must be had in order to shoehorn CANON REMAN WOES and Actual Hearthworlds Storytelling into the same space; so.

I don't feel really myself, wasn't sure of anything until I put Splashdown on loud enough to hurt.

Then I felt better, and now I'm going to go do my report some more. It's due Wednesday and not even half done. Maybe a third done.

I really don't want to spend all of Tuesday on it. But I will if I have to.

God/gods/Elements/imaginary friends here.

I need a vacation.

Soon, soon, soon.

I'm going to look so gross. I don't care.

Black swimsuit? It bows outward at two ends, unable to hold either of them.

I'm rather prouder of the top, but that's neither here nor there.

Hahahaha big fat alto in a big fat black bathing suit!

YOU GUYS.

I'm Ursula. *Grin.*

IN MY DAY WE HAD FANTASTICAL FEASTS, WHEN I LIVED IN THE PALACE.

Soon, bbs.

ALSO SEDGUH:HGEDJASLGHSAH:GFJKLFDla WE'LL NEVER SAY GOODBYE GOT AN UPDATE.

I am seriously stupid happy.

Ayel knows things should be different. He doesn't regret a single day.

igrab is my Victar. I am so not kidding. ♥

Apparently I'm someone else's, too, which is scary considering it was for brainbasement whump.

Or sadism, in the plain English.

(Anything for a reaction, children. And apparently I have a lot of leftover anger about this very thing, why can't you be dead like him her; die, die my darling.)

Oh, Obvious!fandom, you entrance and terrify me. ♥

It's not a queer theory post; stop drooling.

( I actually had a dream I can even remember. )

YOU GUYS.

In The Pale Moonlight.

YOU GUYS.

Nero is right. I mean, he doesn't know it, and wouldn't care if he did know it, because He So Craaazee, but. Still. In canon, even in shitty!Bermaga canon.

He doesn't know, because he can't know, but Spock knows, he must know, in order to know what else he knows, so unless he's dead by then (I have not checked my strictest canon) then he is actually lying about stuff--maybe not "Oh hey, us Vulcans are gonna slay you now kthxbye" but he is keeping quite a few other Fed cards tucked up in that bland grey vest.

...It will be war, Praetor. War is always glorious.

I. I don't. What is this I can't even.

It's possible I squeaked.

Thank you, Deep Space Nine. <3

I can't believe I just typed that whut. Lulz.

Yes, it's stupid how happy I am, and no, I don't care. XD

I am now the proud owner of 24 23 cans of Mountain Dew Throwback. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

GLORY GLORY HALLELUJAH. ♥

( PICSPAM. )

I love you, shitty neighborhood in the boondocks. Even if you are a godforsaken hellpit of boundless, lightless suck in its natural pure suck form. <3

And there is also this. I may have actually laughed with delight IRL for the first time in about a year.

I can't find the screencaps post, but I have them all, so, HAY WHO WANTS KARL URBAN MAKING FACES AT CHRIS PINE? ^_~

And attractively stage-bloody Chris Pine. And Bruce Greenwood being all srs face.

Mygod this movie. Most worthy hot sausage buffet film with male leads I have seen in years.

Oh my god Ayel's outfit I did not think I could love him moar and fgghhgff, that stupid collar of that stupid jacket that is apparently not all there. UNF.

OKAY JHETI BREATHE.

And *college crap* I can't quite remember, on account of being so caffeinated my eyelids were twitching just so I could fake paying attention in lecture, and jesus the fucking dogs woke me up at fucking midnight, but who cares because STEPDAD ARRIVED bearing BOXES OF THROWBACK and I hurt all over and four hours is exactly the same amount of sleep I got yesterday.

This is entirely sufficient excuse to use this icon.

Yes, it is.

Hahaha, the ad in the sidebar just happens to say, "We do more than shipping."

Oh, yes we do.

I wish the community were less fragmented. And that some of the here-first fen were less wary of the demented biker Romulans. Because they're so much fun! And once you know how they got that way, they're just lovely.

Nero has made them a hard and horrible world to do their growing up in, and I can't wait to see how they'll handle it, even though I know the next movie will be the Klingons, because everyone likes them best.

It's my pet theory that the Romulans need chainsaws.

Oh, hush.

There weren't any fiddles in first century Rome. And if there's any such instrument on ch'Rihan it's probably some version of a lyre and not played with a bow.

I mean. Really.

I was trying to type something intelligent but it all comes out

HOLYSHIT *FWEEEEEEE*.

( Nero!fic planning blither. )

I also kind of want a Nero icon that says "DIAF your whole PLANET" but I suspect this is not the way to win friends and influence people within the fandom. XD

I realized that if I'm going to actually WRITE and FINISH my master plan, instead of letting it become Shadows 2.0, I have to have a reasonable idea of the Romulan history relative to the rest of the Star Trek universe.

Being a TOS Trekker, and primarily a books!only Trekker within the TOS, a lot of this makes me go "huh?", but whatever; TNG/DS9 Romulus is Nero's home environment, so, off to the Youtubes.

Trek XI relevant dates, where available, are underlined and red.

( Thus far. Plenty of this goes right over my head, too, but doesn't it make a pretty wooshing noise as it flies by? Mostly thanks to Memory Alpha. )
