"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

'kay, so I'm very very belatedly catching up with Season 2 on Pirate DVD, and realising that I didn't see the finale of Season 1 (pesky cheap-ass pirate DVD salesmen!), and I have spoiled myself slightly already, but I have to say - OMG Molly and Her Two Dads is UNSPEAKABLY cute, and I really need someone to point me to the fic that must be out there 'cause I definitely didn't see THAT slashgasm coming. Blessity bless bless!

Also, I have been cracking the fuck up at how much nekkid and oiled-up Peter Petrelli there has been thus far. Dude. You are in Ireland. It is raining and it is night time. I'm here to tell you that you should be COLD and your nipples would be a damn sight pointier than they presently are in your strangely jumperless state. Put some clothes on. (Unless that is another of your many powers?)

Claire's boyfriend IS Wee!MalReynolds, no? Uncanny!

....so far, I'm not hating it. (I guess I've seen 4 episodes or so.) And still I find myself having to exclaim incredulously at the sheer prettiness of Mohinder every time he's onscreen. Oh, also loving wee Micah and his lovely cousin and the fabulous Nichelle Nichols (although now I'm starting to half-expect William Shatner to arrive at some point, which is a bit scary).

And David Anders! Well, I'm just happy to see him on screen with Hiro, because I heart them both lots. And I continue to be really quite impressed by his English accent, of which the worst that can be said is that it's a touch generic - but really very good, imho.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Fay, there is a Matt/Mohinder fic comm here: [link]

All is well that ends in pizza.

Don't forget the Heroes companion Graphic novels: [link] Chuffa Chuffa!

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Claire's boyfriend IS Wee!MalReynolds, no? Uncanny!

I think everyone was too busy hating him to notice the resemblence.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Really? Huh. I'm not loving on him, but I'm not hating on him either. I sort of want to slap Claire, but that 's because Noah Bennet is just being SO BadAss and Spydaddyish here, all to protect her, and really, come the fuck ON, Claire! Throw the guy a bone! (Except, really I'm not VERY cross with her, because she's a cracking wee actress, and she convinces me.)

Other thoughts, upon watching 2/3 of the season:

Oh, Hiro, how are you so awesome? (Note to self - GO TO JAPAN ALREADY, YOU DUMB BITCH! IT'S JUST ROUND THE CORNER, PRACTICALLY!....really I do like the sound of Japanese SO much more than the sound of Thai. I think that I stand a much better chance of learning Japanese, what with it not being a tonal language. Hmm. Maybe podcasts...)

Oh, Mohinder, you are so pretty. And so dumb. Which, okay, not unheard of for an academic, but, seriously - DUMB DUMB DUMB! You're pretty much a bimbo - in fact if you were played by a chick I'd be getting pissed off, because I think your superpower is managing not to get yourself killed despite being really really dumb. Since you are, instead, an unspeakably hot Indian boy with a lovely accent who is married to Matt! ....yeah, I'm good. You're just lucky that your husband is made of awesome.

Oh, Sylar, you are so creepy. Creepy creepy creepy. Also, the PlagueTwins make Simon/River look positively unfriendly. (Honest to God, for a moment there I thought that BoyTwin's bride WAS GirlTwin! And I was all....really, canon? Really? You're going there?)

Oh FanonDraco David Anders, you are also very pretty! Pretend to be English some more! It's cute! Could you maybe make out with a hot boy for me? Please? If I ask VERY nicely? It would make me very happy! Maybe Hiro? Or - oh, dear God, Mohinder? Gah! head explodes

.... (That said, 'Adam', I very much do not trust you.)

Bwahahaha! Is there a clause in PeterActorDude's contract that says he HAS to be nekkid at least once per episode? I mean, I'm all for it, on general principles, but it DOES make me giggle.

Veronica Mars! You...are not very nice, eh? (note to self: get around to watching Season 3 of VM, even if it is crap. 'Cuz - Veronica! Logan! Weevil! Wallace! Veronica's Dad!)

Oh, Nathan. Nathan Nathan Nathan. Come here and let me do filthy things to you make it all better.

DL! DL! Aw, you're a hero! On the telly! Saving people! That's....just so doomed. Sigh.

Oh, Claire. You are very pretty, and I like your wee family. Even though it contains Mr Muggles. I don't trust your boyfriend, though. He makes you be dumb.

Oh, Mr Bennet! YOU ARE SO BADASS!

Oh, Haitian, if only you had a name of your own! Henceforth you shall be known as HotGuyWithNoName(UnlessYouHadOneThatFayForgot).

Mama Petrelli - what exactly is your superpower? Other than looking really quite surprisingly like Nathan?

Mrs Nathan...when did you get out of your wheelchair? Oh, bugger, I really DID miss some of the episodes at the end of Season 1, didn't I? Bugger bugger bugger.

Lt. Uhura, surely you have a superpower? Other than being an impressively hot old lady? Like, I don't know, juggling geese or something?

Oh, Micah'sCousinWhoseNameIsNotJoan, you are impressively athletic and really quite charming. I hope you get more of a plotline soon.

Bob, I do not trust you even a little bit. Also, you remind me of the late Philip Larkin.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm not loving on him, but I'm not hating on him either.

I'm not sure there was any feeling quite so unanimous about Heroes season 2 than "God, we hate that little fucker."


amych - Apr 14, 2008 4:37:17 am PDT #3539 of 5028
Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm not sure there was any feeling quite so unanimous about Heroes season 2 than "God, we hate that little fucker."

Well, there was hating Maya. But even there, it's no better than a tie.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Wow!

See, this is an interesting experience, watching the show without knowing anything about fannish reaction. I wonder why that was? The hating, I mean? 'Cause he's not pinging me as especially annoying, just - you know, high school boy. eta and I don't mind Maya either. I'm not all 'yay, their plotline again!', but I don't want to throw things at the screen.

...really, I could quite happily watch Molly's Two Dads, with guest appearances from other people from time to time. There should be lots more Matt and Mohinder. And Mohinder should have to have that Peter guy's nekkidness clause written into his contract while he's distracted by something shiny. Yes.

...meanwhile, I am downloading podcasts to help me learn Japanese. Yes.
