HI. HI ALL. (also con/tv/avengers blathering)

1) First: sorry for dropping off the radar and missing a bunch of comments/things but after the con weekend I fell into a pretty much comatose state. I still haven't sorted all my pictures (HOW DID I TAKE 2000 PICTURES SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN ME THAT) and I had to go to class and everything and I managed to check the FL just today. (After one week. It was fun.) Anyway I should be all more or less caught up, and I'll go answer comments and things after I'm done with this post. And this weekend you'll get the con recap posts, if I manage to sort through my pictures.

2) Second: Misha Collins is awesome.

3) Okay, I just had to state that. Third: small tv recap, I won't even use the spoiler tag since I'll be very quick and generic. No vampire porn as I'm three eps behind, but I'm gonna catch up asap.

SPN 7x19 and 7x20: 7x19 was very good and I'm intrigued by how they're dealing with the Bobby situation, even if at this point I'd have preferred if they had just kept him alive in the first place. 7x20 was absolutely delicious and I want Felicia Day back. Please? I loved it! Even if I still can't take the guy playing Dick seriously. Just - he looks like Christian Bale okay, I can't. And I'm still intrigued by the Bobby situation.

GOT 2x05: Brienne, every scene you have is flawless. Especially if it's with Catelyn. Also, is it necessary to have Littlefinger every-fucking-where? Also, Theon, break my heart some more, will you. *grabby hands* *hugs* those were the specifics. As a whole it was a ton better than the previous one. Now next week it's going to be HILARIOUS. Not really, I'll weep.

4) In the midst of my coma-like week, I also saw The Avengers, without any context whatsoever as I haven't seen any superhero movie released since... probably The Dark Knight. Maybe. Whatever, I enjoyed it and I could follow it without much of an issue in spite of just knowing who a few people were in theory (even if I still stand by my opinion that the best superhero movie that will ever be is Batman Returns. There, I had to say it). And that stated... anyone could give me Bruce centered fic recs? (if he's paired with either Tony or Steve or - even better - both it'd be awesome.) *cough* because obviously I went out of the cinema being like 'I want to read Bruce Banner/THE WORLD, DID ANYTHING ELSE HAPPEN'. But from my AO3 forays I realized that there's not much around of my listed ships. Whatever, if it's good I'll take him with anyone really. But that said I'm just glad that now I know what everyone is talking about. xD

5) Aaand now that I got the 'I'M STILL ALIVE' post out of the way I'll go sort out pictures and answer to comments and catch up. Buuut here, I'm gonna leave you with a treat:



You're welcome ;)

BRING 'EM ON!

Welcome back -- it's good to see that you survived! I thought maybe the con excitement had killed ya. ;) *waits impatiently for your con report*

I still can't take the guy playing Dick seriously. Just - he looks like Christian Bale okay, I can't. And I'm still intrigued by the Bobby situation.

LOL, you. Yes, he does resemble Christian Bale, but . . . have you seen Bale in American Psycho? Dick Roman is a pretty much spot-on version of Bale's "Patrick Bateman" from that movie. IMO, it's really kind of awesome.

The Bobby situation remains interesting . . . but is starting to frighten me a bit.

YOU SAY BRING 'EM ON, IT'S TAKING ME HOURS TO SORT THEM ;) lol seriously I'll try to put them up asap. Next time someone just stop my damn finger though.

And hahah lol it did kill me but because I slept nearly not enough and I'm more or less happily comatose. ;)

Oh, I did! And I'd like the impression if I could just SEPARATE them in my head, but the moment I see Dick's face I start cracking up. It's horrible. Also because the actor really isn't bad at all, but - IT'S DISTRACTING!

Ditto. I can't see any way of it ending well, but we'll see...?

2000 photos, though. That is MEGA-impressive -- I can't wait to see them. Glad you had a good, exhausting time! \o/

I just hope that Bobby manages to keep it together and avoids going all rogue on everyone, because that would break my heart.

the moment I see Dick's face I start cracking up.

Think of him brandishing a chainsaw. Or comparing business cards with another Levia!yuppie.

LOL, did I just make things worse? XD
