rosencrantz and guildenstern are dead caps (first installment)

i took these at crantz's request, but since i love this movie almost as much as, like, singin' in the rain, and am totally in love with both gary and tim... there was no way i could take a moderate number.  i had a hard time narrowing it down to these, and i've split them up.  the beginning of the movie through the quarry and the campsite in the woods for today; more tomorrow.

musings

dude, it's noon. and sunny and beautiful, albeit cold. but there's nobody on aim and even the dog doesn't want to keep me company. oh no, he'd rather sleep in the dark bedroom with the curtains drawn with wax.

have i ever mentioned that he always acts way more excited when she comes home than when i do? it's baffling. i'd have every right to be jealous if i felt like it. but wax's perplexed, flattered face, her awkward tolerance when she crouches down and lets him nuzzle and sniff her, are so cute.

highlander story wishlist

i want:

+a story in which duncan and methos have only gradually been able to become comfortable together again, where they've gradually grown more physically affectionate than we see in the series, but set before they actually start having sex. set in the fluffy sunny happy time of pleasant anticipation. only mild angst would be remotely acceptable. ...maybe i've just had enough angst (something that's way easy to do in this fandom.)

+a story in which methos tells mac scathingly, and at length, how stupid he is. canon engendered this wish. the guy is just begging for a smackdown.

+a story without the phrase "his lover" in it one single time. (i know, dream on, right?)*

+a story in which methos is a sucky sword-fighter (fits canon evidence, even though it makes no sense whatsoever).

+a story in which methos doesn't pine or in any other fashion act like a wet noodle (or a teacup poodle, for that matter). i have no objection to his being unrequitedly in love or whatever. i mean, it's easiest to interpret canon that way, so have a party. but a hard methos! a sarcastic, witty, intelligent, opaque, often angry, cautious and untrusting methos--remember him? from on the screen?

+a story that's angsty, with dialogue that's in-character, WITHOUT melodrama. hahahahaha.

on another note: a passion that burned with the intensity of an entire city aflame. HAHAHAHAH.

*okay, i've probably even read one, but when you've read ten in a row that sprinkle it about like powdered sugar on lemon bars, they gradually erase the memory of the appositive-free fic until all that remains is blind, hating, style-policing editor's RAGE.

(no subject)

no due south on saturday after all because no emma=no region-free dvd. maybe twice in a weekend is a bit much...
