What, you didn't want to see Liv Tyler in a metal brassiere doing backflips and flinging a chakram at the nazgul?
Mal: Then I call it a win. What's the problem? Inara: Should I start with the part where you're stranded in the middle of nowhere, or the part where you have no clothes?
'Trash'
LotR - The Return of the King: "We named the *dog* 'Strider'".
Frodo: Please, what does it always mean, this... this "Aragorn"? Elrond: That's his name. Aragorn, son of Arathorn. Aragorn: I like "Strider." Elrond: We named the *dog* "Strider".
A discussion of Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King. If you're a pervy hobbit fancier, this is the place for you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Eomer also has charm on Xena.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
And wings.

They're really taking liberties with the historical accuracy of Julius Caesar, aren't they?

Yes. Julius Caesar, son of Aphrodite.
I have a very hard time turning off my brain for Xena, especially when one episode features the Trojan War and the next features Caesar.

Well, I was just watching for Ares anyway (weep, weep, Kevin Smith is gone).

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Julius Caesar, son of Aphrodite.
Say again? Have these people seen busts of ole Julius? A funnier-looking guy I can't think of in antiquity, except maybe Nero. I mean, Narcissus son of Aphrodite, I could buy with appropriate hand-waving, or Julius Caesar bizarro love-child of Jupiter and Mars.
Also, wings? Since when do Roman emperors get wings??

It's a joke, Nutty. Karl Urban played both ol' Jules and Cupid.

But see, as Cupid he was blond, and as Caesar, a brunet. So you could tell them apart, I guess. Wings notwithstanding.

I think Karl Urban is doomed to a career of very bad and/or strange hair.
