Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

So many Skarsgards! I was thinking of Gustaf--Vikings' Floki, or Bill--It. But Alexander did Generation Kill, True Blood, and now Murderbot. And Daddy Stellan did Thor and other MCU movies, Pirates of the Caribbean, Mamma Mia, and my favorite, Wind. SO many Skarsgards.

ETA: AFAIK, Wyle is doing something as a doctor again. So no Librarian.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Someone else remembers Wind ? Wow.

Yes! My Whomper! You tie it on, it goes whomp, and we're back in the g*ddam race!

I still laugh myself silly at Skarsgard's character sitting in the hangar where they're trying to build the boat and playing "Skye Boat Song" with understandable melancholy on the cello. I and my DH were almost certainly the only people in the theatre who recognized the song and it's relation to the situation.

The hook for me was the sailplane. I was instructing in them in Colorado at the time.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

It does not get *less* intense. Good job looking out for your own well-being.

Agreed. My anxiety responds to watching high-anxiety things sometimes. But not action movies. Captain America: Winter Soldier killed me when they were destroying all of the parked cars because all I could think of was having my car destroyed by a superhero and having to go through the insurance claim. But I find L & O SVU soothing.

Best guesses, dcp? Or have you experience sailplaning?

Yes. I've even posted a few stories about it, long ago in The Great Write Way.
