And almost sixty-five percent of that was actual compliment. Is that a personal best?

What, does Angel know NOTHING about betting and odds and ARGH!

If Doyle were here, he'd have gotten it right.

Surprised that in the few comparisons of the masked & robed freemasons, no one compared it to Eyes Wide Shut. I can't think of anything more similar. (Also, I happen to like that movie, so save it.)

I liked it too. As much as you can like something that totally freaking creeps you out in a way that almost no movie could ever hope to do.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I think there was a comparison made to Eyes Wide shut -- something about how it was like that, but without the boobs. Feel too lazy to nilly it though.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

If Doyle were here, he'd have gotten it right.

I've always wanted pre-series Doyle at Del Mar fic.

I must confess.

Lady O' Spain did.

ETA: Inevitable x-post of course.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I thought of that too, actually, but forgot to mention it. (No, seriously! I did! The whole "secret society" vibe and the masks...) (And I don't not like it, I just don't really get it, I guess. But I won't prosecute you for it, cause people whose opinions I respect like it a lot too.)

No, that's why Gunn always wanted him to go to Vegas, to learn.

Crazy post number!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I skipped the watch and post. Sorry.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

When they were all raising their hands and planning their blaze of glory exit I kept hearing Buffy's "the hardest thing in this world is to live in it" in my haid.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Drogyn looked pretty miserable. Maybe Angel figured he was doing him a favor, regardless.

But yeah, I'm gonna be pissed if they don't pick that up at all. Which they probably won't have time to.

Guy #1: Man, there are so many hipsters around. I hate hipsters! Guy #2: You're at the wrong place. That's like going to Vegas only to say "I hate titties!" --The Warsaw, Williamsburg (OINY)

I'm also rather disturbed about the killing of Drogyn. First, do we know that was actually him? I rewound and still couldn't recognize him.

Consuela is me. That was so not Frogyn (he will forever more be this to me because it's too funny, also hearing that in my head as a combination of Frodo* and Drogyn) - the guy Angel killed was half-bald and very weird-looking. It didn't even occur to me that it might have been supposed to be Frogyn until I read the W&P here.

I like this episode a lot more in retrospect than when I finished watching. I kind of had the (Plei? someone's) reaction of "Oh, so my sense of something being horribly wrong and asspully was SUPPOSED to be like that" and finding it hard to enjoy the last 10 minutes of goodness in light of the prior 30 minutes of irritation.

Oh, and I like Nina fine, but she's nothing to write home about. Or waste scenes on sending her out of the country.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Drogyn looked pretty miserable. Maybe Angel figured he was doing him a favor, regardless.

As opposed to the look that says "I have a hessian sack on my head and I'm being beaten with sticks, AIFG!"

That's really more Wesley's shtick.
