a miscellany
Sep. 16th, 2008 01:43 pm* Okay, my happy Peta/Caspian porn was not supposed to reveal that Peta has PTSD. Maybe they'll just end up cuddling instead. *shakes head* Peta, honey, using Caspian to see if magic, uh, magically removed your trauma is not really the best idea, not if you don't let him know you're doing it.
* I need a Peta icon, even though I have no space left for it, and also, I have no idea who I'd cast as Peta. The only person I can think of is Keira Knightley, but Keira's features aren't nearly as strong as Peta's are, in my head (least. visual. writer. ever), and Peta has more cleavage. Also, Keira is my mental casting for girl!Anakin Skywalker, so that messes with my head even more.
* I have a saxophone! It's a Yamaha tenor sax checked out from Tulane (oh my God, they don't make you pay to rent instruments here, so much love), and it's, like, in gorgeous condition. There's no tenor player for the concert band, and even though I auditioned on flute, I also mentioned that I play saxophone and that I played tenor for a year in high school, so I'm playing tenor. Awesome. Of course, now we have to see if I, uh, remember how to play.
* Saw the series premiere of Life last night on Hulu, and man, that looks interesting. And there's a whole season to catch up on, and it's free, and then the second season starts. All y'all that are here from Narnia fandom really do not have any idea just how much TV I watch, and how much of it is crime dramas. It'll go down since I'm not at home and I don't actually have a TV, so I have to watch everything on my laptop and knit during it (which is frustrating, because usually I write and watch TV, and I can't do that if I'm watching TV on the computer unless I split-screen, and I may do that, depending on the level of background noise I want for it), but seriously -- I watch a lot of TV.
* No, Peta, seriously, you are damn lucky Caspian's such a nice guy he's actually going to notice that you've gone straight past "making a conscious effort" and "lying back and thinking of Narnia" to "I'm not here at all."
* Y'all have no idea how many weapons I had to look up on Wikipedia to put in Peter's secret stash. *bemused* Including garroting wire, the devil.
