the discreet charm of the bourgeoisie, in sexy tiny specs

[sab]

Does anyone know where I can download NCIS? I suddenly and stupidly need to feed my Michael Weatherly jones.

Which is to say that I have more to say about Dark Angel and will need to exorcise my demons with some sort of indulgent and cathartic Max/Logan RST because they spent an entire season not able to touch each other and the show never once made it sexy and that is just stupid and insulting.*

Which is to say that S2 of Dark Angel really, really sucked. (Sorry, people who like Jensen Ackles.)

Which is to say that S ONE of Dark Angel dug its little claws into my soul, and is smart, scary, sexy, dark, twisted, gay, and ridiculously hot. And Jessica Alba and Michael Weatherly in the same room -- with barely one TV actor's worth of talent between them -- have so much chemistry my hard drive nearly melted. My head nearly melted. I am become heterosexual! Michael Weatherly, you are TOO SEXY. You put the two of those suckers on the same screen and one requires parental controls and a cigarette after.

Which is to say, the aforementioned post re: Dark Angel will come. Expect big words on Original Cindy and Alimi Ballard, uncomfortable Michael/Jessica squeeing, horny feline DNA eroticism, lesbians, Mr. Multiples, going fast on a motorcycle, makin' toothpaste and influencing people. (Big words on S2 go as follows: any time you cast Jo Jo the Dog-Faced Boy as an ensemble regular you have Jumped the Shark. Any interest I had in watching Supernatural fled after twenty-two episodes of Jensen adding his vapid, pretty-boy presence to the eviscerated and soulless shell of Seattle 2021 that is Dark Angel S2.)

_any good Logan/Max fic recs?*
_or vids?
_or gossip about the Alba-Weatherly relationship and breakup?
_or -- god save me -- RPF?
_or any Michael Weatherly tales
_like for example, how hot is he as a shifty Italian on NCIS?

Seriously, my feelings for this man are new and strange and make me uncomfortable! Dumb sort of hot bourgeoise white guy! Who licks his lip with his tongue and guhhhh not to mention those little crinkles around his eyes and the scruff, the scruff...

I am breathing in short pants, and that, my friends, is trouble.

Now I gotta post my femslash06 straggler!

* I'm gonna write the goddamned Max/Logan. I also wanna read the goddamned Max/Logan. Help a sista out, as her Originalness might say?

hey. quasiradiant sent me your way. :)

you should be able to find most all of NCIS up on the torrent networks, though there's no guarantee of a good speed on older eps. the P2P networks are also good. season one (and maybe season two? I'm a bit behind on my DVD news) is being put out in the next few months (check tvshowsondvd.com for more info, etc. etc.).

if you don't want to wait for the official DVDs, I've got all of both the first and second season .avis burned to DVD and all of season three up to the last new ep before tonight's.

and, um, yes. have fun perving on Tony! ;D

You are so fired. And you get my Dean icon out of pure spite.

[iamsab.livejournal.com]

He's everywhere! I look for DA fic communities, they're overrun with Mac/ALEC! I look for icon communities; they're overrun with Jensen! He's a POX on my OTP! :P

(Also I still have disc 6 of S2, lemme know when you're ready for it...)

[pene.livejournal.com]

I loved early Dark Angel. So hot and in the future.

[esorlehcar.livejournal.com]

Heee. Since I pretty much pay no attention except when Jensen's onscreen and rewatch the Jensen scene two and three times, I cannot share your outrage.

*loves on Jensen to a deeply embarrassing degree* Though, lord, no desire to read any fic about the character.

Will call about the extra disc...

[iamsab.livejournal.com]

With lesbians! Mmmm.

[ratcreature]

I liked season one of DA better too, not least because I thought having the government/military as a villain worked much better in a sf-like show than this tacked on, bizarre mystical crap they introduced in season two for no reason I could discern.

That said, I actually liked Alec, but I'm really weary of DA fanfic because while I have no clear shipping preferences, the number of times I've read fanfic (seemingly decently written ones they seemed at first too!) that had Logan turning randomly into an evil and/or insane psychopath, just so the author could ship Max and Alec is appalling, especially considering that I haven't read a lot of DA fanfic in total. I get that it's expedient to get Logan out of the picture, at least romance-wise, for a Max/Alec fic, but why go for character bashing on top of that? I may not be that much of a Max/Alec shipper, yet I am not so unconvinced of the possibility for this pairing that I could only see it if Logan turned out to be evil.

[pene.livejournal.com]

funny thing, I watched in 2000, in Oakland. I wonder what my thinking was at that point about lesbians. I mean, I figure it still hadn't occurred to me that I was allowed and likely to be one.

Mmmmm... lesbians ;)

[iamsab.livejournal.com]

That is such a good question! You gotta watch again for the hot OC business! OC is my favorite canonical lesbian since Ivanova, yo!

[iamsab.livejournal.com]

Me TOO. All the good futuristic post-Pulse Seattle stuff was so GOOD in S1. All the Jam Pony, squatting, border patrol, police corruption, toothpaste-shortage business! To erase all that -- along with OC's hotness -- and Logan's! -- in exchange for JENSEN and JOSHUA is a CRIME.

You don't know of any actual GOOD M/L fic, do you? Set either in S1 or in S2 without Alec? Or, at least, making good use of the virus?

Evil Logan! Cruel!

[iamsab.livejournal.com]

Yeah, S1 comes out on DVD in June. I'm more interested in, like, downloading a couple .avis quick, to get a feel for how hot he is. *g*

The torrents are mostly old and unseeded? Do you have good Tony episode recs? So I know where to start?

[walkingshadow.livejournal.com]

join ncisepisodes for all the episodes to date! and the word on the internet is that the season one DVDs are going to be out sometime soon.

i don't know if tony is a *sleazy* italian so much as . . . a womanizing class clown who sometimes whips out his "i'm a disarmingly competent investigator! ask me how!" button. i love him so, so much. he doesn't have scruff *or* glasses here, but in the last two seasons he does get some really sharp suits.

(in point of fact—i love everybody on the show! i love the show itself! soon the whole world will know its greatness!)

oh, but to answer your actual question (i.e. how hot is he as a shifty Italian on NCIS?): very extremely hot af;alkfjs

does this mean i really do have to check out season one dark angel? i feared this day would come.

[iamsab.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Just what I wanted!


does this mean i really do have to check out season one dark angel? i feared this day would come.

Um. The answer to your question is: only if you're interested in MW being ridiculously, brilliantly, scruffily sexy. Also DA S1 is really very good.

[ratcreature]

Sorry, I can't really help with recs. I remember having read some decent M/L, but that was a few years and computers ago, so I can't really remember. And even so, I actually can't recall any really awesome, outstanding DA fanfic. The main thing that sticks with me about DA fandom is that every time I try to look for DA fanfic (usually about once a year or so) I end up totally frustrated.

[pene.livejournal.com]

Original Cindy always worked for me. Maybe she gets the toaster?

xxxxxx

P.S. http://www.darkangelfan.com/fanfic/alt_fic/CommonThief_1_bulletproof.shtml

it starts... "Logan ran an exasperated hand through his hair"

Hee. Who loves you?

[iamsab.livejournal.com]

YOU DO!

[aurora]

because they spent an entire season not able to touch each other and the show never once made it sexy and that is just stupid and insulting. GOD YES. That killed me. And not in the good way S1 did. Oh no, this was slow and excruciating torture. *still bitter*

time you cast Jo Jo the Dog-Faced Boy as an ensemble regular you have Jumped the Shark.
Word! God, the grunting. The painting! The cringing (mostly mine)!

I still want to jump MW's bones, though.

[samdonne.livejournal.com]

Max/Logan?!

I do not know you anymore. Away!

Could have cared less about DA S1 (it might have been decent without Logan the Moralizing Sleaze, ugh), but liked S2 plenty. Freak Nation. It kinda reminded me of fandom.

[elliejane.livejournal.com]

Ah! I shall look forward to any further developments with interest! Dark Angel S1 was the only bit of TV that peaked my interest after Farscape. Although, I didn't see it til AFTER the cancellation (DA's, that is). When I found out it led me to think "I'm seein' a pattern here..."

Couldn't bear going into S2...virus! Alec??! Insane 'keep the leads apart', when FS had had them together (in the angsty painful on off way) and I KNEW it could work! I was all "Nooooooo!" Clever writers and good plotlines could actually get your leads together and it would STILL WORK, I was positive. Between S1 ending on TV here, and S2 starting I surfed avidly only to find out my hot OTP were torn assunder (and the Alec guy was dominating fic). I felt like the ptb were manipulating me for a pointless, pointless reason, and it felt so annoyingly obvious. I swore off right there.

Anyways.

MW = hot!

Max/Logan = Hotter!

OC = fantabulous character!

I shall follow any fic recs with interest :)

Freak Nation. It kinda reminded me of fandom.

HA! so true.

[quasiradiant.livejournal.com]

see how i provide you with experts?!

[iamsab.livejournal.com]

You always bring it. You're so good to me!

[marinwood.livejournal.com]

any Michael Weatherly tales

He's a big They Might be Giants fan - he'd come to all their shows when he lived in NYC.

[projectjulie.livejournal.com]

I have the The HomOC, which is just the Alex/Marissa arc with everything else edited out, if you want it. all I know about NCIS is that it brings the girlslash.

[iamsab.livejournal.com]

For some reason, this is TERRIFIC news. Yay, John and John!
