BEST FRANDS

And an excerpt from a logfile of chatting with kiffie yesterday:

kiffie: Also, Namor - Asshole = never meeting Betty or Jim.
eliyes: Betty would have carried on, her life a bit less rich and weird, but Jim
eliyes: Jim needs Namor
eliyes: as a rival and compatriot and friend
kiffie: Yes.
eliyes: as someone else who doesn't entirely understand the people around him in a way that merely being from another country doesn't cover
kiffie: Yep.
eliyes: and as someone to demonstrate things like the passion Namor has
kiffie: And, for his part, Namor functions pretty well without Jim, but he's happy when he's around that doofy firebot.
kiffie: Steve has lots of passion, but it's fairly one-direction and typically not to the visible extremes that Namor gets to. :V
kiffie: Namor will crush a steel door in his bare hands just because he's excited about bagels. :V

Then we got distracted by Namorita and cupcakes, but -- my point is, sometimes it's like life is an ongoing dialogue with the universe about the relationships between comic book characters.

After kiffie sent me this link: http://hatofunthinking.tumblr.com/image/105368336830

eliyes: is that a werecrow Hawkeye on the right?
eliyes: Kate: ...Hawkeye.
crow!Hawkeye: *caws* Hawkeye
Clint: *caws*
kiffie: Crow!Hawkeye is a good guy, if I'm remembering right.
eliyes: Crow!Hawkeye: *caw!*
Clint: *caw caw!*
Kate: *bitchface*
kiffie: XDDDD
kiffie: Kate: Okay, this is pissing me off -- why the futz aren't you a hawk?
eliyes: Crow!Hawkeye: Because then it wouldn't be significant that I have eyes like a hawk?
kiffie: Clint: *Rennergiggle*
eliyes: Crow!Hawkeye: "Hawk", they'd call me.
eliyes: Kate: ...fair point.

[livejournal.com profile] kiffie: Toro, Toro, Toro... Your whole "I can't get drunk, I burn through alcohol" excuse only works if you're on fire
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: Toro: but then the alcohol doesn't make it to my mouth
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: to be fair, he can sober up quickly by bursting into flames!
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: on the other hand, situations where it seems like a good idea to a drunk guy to burst into flames, are, uh....
[livejournal.com profile] kiffie: *horrible laughter*
[livejournal.com profile] kiffie: Jim: *totally not laughing (seriously laughing) beenface*
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: Jim: We're very sorry.
Toro: My insurance will be in touch about repairing the... everything
[livejournal.com profile] kiffie: 21st Century must hate you guys.
eliyes: (reading Jack)
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: *stares at the tag Light Tentacles*
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: does that mean tentacles made of light?
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: or
[livejournal.com profile] kiffie: TRON pron?
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: is it telling me the amount of tentacles, as in on a scale of light-moderate-heavy?
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: no, fairy fic
[livejournal.com profile] kiffie: On your heaviest days, use TentaPad
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: which is why it could go either way, really
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes:: XD omg
[livejournal.com profile] kiffie: idk man. You are on your own.
eliyes: (Kon & Krypto)
Thank you kiffies~~~~~~
eliyes: (Static wisdom)
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: okay, so, I basically downloaded the soundtrack for The Chipmunk Adventure because I wanted the song Gettin' Lucky
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: I don't know if it's a cover or what
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: but now
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: I am picturing various non-chipmunk fictional people singing it
[livejournal.com profile] kiffie: *cackling*
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: and possibly dancing with cartoon snakes the same way
[livejournal.com profile] kiffie: XD
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: I AM PICTURING SHARON AND STEVE STANDING IN A ROOM FULL OF DEFEATED HYDRA AGENTS SINGING IT BACK AND FORTH
[livejournal.com profile] kiffie: See, my childhood association with the Chipmunks was Bat-Munk, so... uh... that's having an interesting time in my mind, at the moment.
[livejournal.com profile] kiffie: Oh, come now... Serpent Society, surely. Timelines be damned.
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: OH HONEY HONEY GIVE ME *punch* A CLUE *kick, elbow* WONTCHA TELL ME WHAT I NEED TO DO *flying tackle*
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: sure, serpent society also works
[livejournal.com profile] kiffie: The little BONG as someone hits the shield
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: although Steve seems to have actua hahaha
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: actual emotional ties to some of them, or vice versa
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: bong hahaha
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: it's hard to be taken seriously as a supervillain when Captain America has done a pseudo Elvis impression while singing into your tail
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: if you don't have any clue what I mean I can find a video on youtube for you
[livejournal.com profile] kiffie: ...I am picturing this.
[livejournal.com profile] kiffie: This is making my head hurt.
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: can you imagine? in the costume, swivelling his hips and knees, flinging an arm into the air with his head down to the mic/tail -- and catches the shield XD
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: Sharon & Natasha: *clap*
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: Natasha: *pauses to tranq dart a thug, goes back to clapping, face polite*
[livejournal.com profile] kiffie: oh god. *laughing*
eliyes: (Baian :D)
eliyes: (Kirk is da boss)
So I'm reading an NCIS/H50 crossover set in the Deep Space Nine universe (sort of; writer could have done some more research, IMO*) and there's this wonderful line:

Captain L. Jethro Gibbs was two minutes away from spacing half his crew and turning pirate with the rest.

I just can't help but wonder how many frustrated captains have felt this way over the years. XD

*The Bolian homeworld is not Bolia, just for example.
eliyes: (Aurion)
Namore the Sub-Mariner, daughter of Atlantean princess Len and human ship-captain Ferdinand McKenzie
Bertrand "Bertie" Dean, NYPD cop
The Human Torch, aka Jane Hammond, NYPD cop
Zina the Flaming Girl, aka Thomasina Raymond
Bucky, aka Jemima "Jemmy" Barnes (people think Bucky's a boy)
Captain America, aka Stephanie Rogers (people know Cap's a woman)
Union Jack (II), aka Jonathan "Jack" Falsworth (his sister calls him Jackie-boy)
Destroyer, aka Brianna Falsworth
Dyna-Mite, aka Rachel Aubrey

Okay, so Namore was a typo of Namora, but you know, I kinda like it? Can we keep it?
eliyes: (headache)
Like:
Namor is walking out of a meeting with the ambassadors of a few countries and probably an Avenger or two when a firey figure streaks across the sky towards them.
"Who is that?" someone asks, and he calmly says, "Toro."
"How can you tell?"
"They look different."
"NAMOR!" Toro yells, and his voice is full of excitement. He drops down in front of the King of Atlantis and grabs his wrists almost before his flames are gone. "I'm gonna be a father!" And his voice is full of wild elation.
Namor grips his wrists in turn, grinning at him. "Congratulations!" Because of course he knows how much this means to Toro, of course he does, he was there through the years of Toro and Ann's marriage, and knows how they were afraid if she go pregnant with Toro's child she might get burned.
Toro laughs joyously. "Do you have a few minutes to spare? I'd like to introduce you to the mother of my future child--" His grin is huge and proud. "--we were just house-hunting, it's not far."
And they fly off and Namor meets Freya.

Like:
As much as Jim wants to be there with Toro and Freya and the baby, and as much as he likes the home they are makig together, he kind of didn't want to give up his old place. It held memories, and it seems like he's always having to leave that kind of thing behind.
He solves the problem by giving the old apartment to Tara.

Like:
As the USS Lehigh approaches the distressed outpost, they have a senior staff briefing, and it's Steve who knows what phenomenon they're studying, Steve who can name several ships that have gone missing after managing to get out a report of the readings of it, and two of those were Starfleet. Phillips and Peggy take this in stride, but don't say anything about why he is so familiar with this particular research. Others can just assume he's being an efficient and well-informed second officer. It's not until later in the story, when Steve and Peggy are stranded with Thor and Sif, that it comes out that his parents were on one of those ships. Foreshadowing!

Like:
Rictor's favourite Babylon 5 character is Ivanova.
Cue crossover thoughts where Terry is visiting the station as a diva singer, Shatterstar is her bodyguard, Rictor is her assistant, and Rahne is her pilot.
I DO NOT NEED ANOTHER MARVEL/SPACE TV SHOW CROSSOVER, BRAIN.

Ugh, maybe now I can sleep.

Title: Roger Aubrey and the Gingerbread Menace
Timing: Present
Summary: Expanding on the gingerbread men thing previously mentioned in Yule: Preparation Is Key.
A/N: Please note that "expanding on" is not the same thing as "explaining". ;3


Roger Aubrey's Christmas tree decorations had a clear theme: gingerbread men. )

This fic was written Christmas Eve, 2012. :D
eliyes: (Rodney/Sam)
Title: Yule: Preparation Is Key
Timing: Present.
Characters: Roger & Jackie. Because they are still family.
Author's Notes: Kenneth can turn into a bat once he's a vampire, and Jackie's a vampire now, right? So she should be able to, and Roger can still shrink, and so [livejournal.com profile] kiffie came up with Santa Roger and the Christmas Bat. And then I found this e-card (while looking for a good picture of a UK-local bat to photoshop into the Christmas Bat). And then I wrote this. XD


Happy Christmas, Luv! )

You heard me. XD

It's the 31st anniversary of Canadarm's first use in space as today's Google-art informs us, and so, this conversation happened when I pointed this out to kiffie:

[livejournal.com profile] kiffie: ARM! :D
[livejournal.com profile] eliyes: 31st anniversary, baby!
[livejournal.com profile] kiffie: Ever since Iron Man came out, I now can't shake that the Arm sounds like Dummy

Writing With Chopsticks

Mulan divided her time between the palace and the barracks, arranging escorts and supplies and guides with Shang for all the outlying villages in need. Yao whistled playfully at her the first time he saw her in her formal robes, to which Mulan rolled her eyes, shot back a reply about him just being jealous of her clothes, and continued signing the order presented to her.

Ling and Chien Po teased Yao good-naturedly for several days after that, and he turned red every time.


Swan feathers! Adorable awkwardness! Fighting like bros!

Actually a pretty good film! If the trailers I saw when it was in theatres had had more of "Bruce Banner runs from the Army and seeks a cure" and less "BLARRR ABOMINATION BLARRR" I might have watched it sooner.

Seriously, it made me like Bruce Banner and Betty Ross, something the comics have never entirely succeeded with. And like them together, as friends and partners and a couple. They were so caring of each other, gentle but strong in their convictions and love. I liked it. The special effects and pre-Abomination fight scenes were pretty good.

I'm glad "Mr. Blue" didn't turn out to be Reed Richards, gotta say.

Need to track down the short that expands on that scene at the end with Ross and Stark, and the other one, "A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To Thor's Hammer". Coulson! :D

I'll probably rewatch the Cap movie tonight or tomorrow. Planning to go see The Avengers Thursday (please no spoilers!), so I gotta prep! Probably skim a synopsis of the second Iron man movie while I'm at it.

Captain's Log:

Until today, I was an ensign aboard a ship, studying asteroids. Today, everyone on my ship was killed and I, being of the highest rank left, became captain.

Supplemental:

I did not realise how small I was really was until today.

Okay, so, his wife's name is Yashawini, and his daughters are Manthika and Bhairavi. Manthika is eldest, Bhairavi was the one whose wedding Shallan attended. There may or may not be a son as well, but I'm not sure. I need to name bridegroom, I suppose, and then I can finally write the fic!

Which will possibly also involve chat about Glenn's tat, since Shallan will be doing a comparison with henna. *interested antennae*

Comfort Food (SG-1, Teal'c being awesome and cooking)

Inundation (SGA, team + Zelenka & others stranded)

Voyage par Mer (This is big and plotty and revolves around the idea that Rodney McKay and Grant Jansky are cousins. Grant is another character David Hewlett played, in the Canadian series Traders. He's brilliant and sweet and broken. You can see some of his first appearence on youtube. Not seen in that: Grant's hugginess. This fic also has John and Carson. There's some Special Ops John happening, very ruthlessly violent, but man I do not blame him. There's also sequelae but they're not as strong, I feel... probably because they're a WIP for one big sequel.)

Next rec: I, Rodney. As you can probably guess from the title, Rodney is a robot in this one. It works really well, starting with the beginning of the SGA series (John and Rodney get off on the wrong foot), leap frogs regularly between "present" and "Rodney's past" but with multiple povs. We get a lot of interesting stuff with Rodney & Jeannie, as well. It was posted in five parts, and they all link at the bottom to the next, but here: One Two Three Four Five

Some fluffy fics from kisahawklin:
Blanket Fort
Musical Chairs (I like this one especially for John's incredulousness over people thinking he and Rodney are/should be a couple. I've been in that friendship.)
Sprawl (Team + Woolsey n'aww)

A Not So Small Life (Brief character study of John.)

Some moments from John & Rodney's friendship in Like Butch and Sundance, Only Without the Bolivian Army part 1 part 2

With that, I think I've reached the stuff I've already rec'd you, so I shall pause.

First of all, Abby Scuito bobblehead debuts at Comic Con.

Second, click here for SGA genfic recs (a votre attention, Kiffie!) )

Now I'm taking a nap so that I can (hopefully) get up and go watch the Pride Parade (if I don't sleep through my alarm).

There may be awesome buddy fic recs here in the future, for when you are done finals and want to spend the time it will take your dial-up to load a) LJ, and b) the fics (which are likely to also be on LJ).

Here is the first rec: Icarus, On A Cloudy Day. Team striving together in a non-shooting situation, Teyla's pov. You really get the sense of the world they're on.
