re: my last post

Me: Ugh, I'm still so stuck on that wang.

J: ...

Me: ...wait, no—

J: ...that sounds uncomfortable.

Me: —damn it.

J: Is that what knotting is about?

[angryonabus]

M: I'm going to take you out to dinner for your birthday! Or something. Tell me what you want!

J: okay...

M: what you really really want.

J: Pretty sure I don't want to zig-a-zig-ahh, bb.

M: BUT HOW CAN YOU BE SURE???

true love is somebody who will read over your emails and tell you whether you're:

a) being a major asshole

b) not being enough of an asshole

c) being exactly the right amount of asshole

Doctor Who Thoughts (starts out silly; gets sillier)

So thebeatneverleaves and I were talking in bed, as we do, and somehow the topic came around to Doctor Who, as it does, and we had the following thoughts about the current season (SPOILERS AHOY):

We already know that Oswin whatserface is the new companion, right?  Which, bisexuality-slamming comments aside, I am totally pumped about - I may be in the minority, but I totally fucking loved Oswin and was basically endlessly charmed by her.

But Oswin, as things stand right now, is a Dalek!  Which...is a thing.  And also dead, maybe?  I can't remember.  BUT MOSTLY A DALEK, let's be real, this is Who, nobody is ever actually dead, except when they are, FUCK YOU, MOFFAT.

I digress.  The point is, Oswin is currently a Dalek, but what we've seen in the leaked shots from the rest of the season shows her as a human.  A conundrum!  With a few possible responses:

A)  the new companion is not actually Oswin, but Oswin's secret twin sister or some such.  In which case, FUCK YOU, MOFFAT, YOU ARE THE WORST.

B)  the new companion IS actually Oswin, but at a different point in her own timeline.  Which - enh.  I guess that makes sense, but I find it kind of uninteresting - I feel like we've seen that whole "X is a fixed point" narrative, where somebody knows something terrible is going to happen in the future, more than enough. *coughPONDScough*

C)  the new companion IS actually Oswin, but de-Dalekified.  Again, enh.  If that was possible, what was the point of the Doctor abandoning her when he found out she was a Dalek?  Like, way to totally Joss your own emotional arc, there, Moffat.  This is probably the most likely outcome, but I find it pretty lackluster, and honestly prefer option...

D)  the new companion IS actually Oswin, exactly as she was when we last saw her: a being who perceives herself as human, living in the body of a Dalek.  Which, depending on how they shot things, could be fascinating - Oswin would continue to see herself as Oswin-the-human, but other characters would see her as Oswin-the-Dalek, and what would that give us?  Potentially, it's a really interesting discussion of what makes a person, self-determination, identity, etc. - and it could tie in with the whole "the Daleks don't hate the Doctor anymore" nonsense.  

...so this conversation, obviously, led to Oswin-the-human-Dalek doing the things Oswin-the-human appears to already do - namely, banter and flirt.  Which, inevitably, led to us discussing Oswin-the-human-Dalek trying to hit on people...as a Dalek.  Whipping out terrible pick up lines...as a Dalek.

"HEY.  SEXY LADY."

"CAN I BUY YOU..." *waggles eyestalk* "...A DRINK?"

"IF I SAID YOU HAD A GREAT BODY, WOULD YOU HOLD IT AGAINST ME?"

and, of course:

"FOR-NI-CATE!  FOR-NI-CATE!"

...and then we rolled around on the bed, cracking ourselves up, while J pretended to Dalek suction-cup my boobs and I threatened to divorce her in every timeline. (Spoiler alert: I will never divorce her. Who else could possibly bring me this much joy?)

animated movie month at chez lord et reneben:

J: I'll just take "The Incredibles" out of the DVD

J: ...and put it on top of "The Emperor's New Groove"

J: ...and put on "The Sword in the Stone"

J: ...

J: ...I think we have a problem

Me: I prefer to think of it as a solution, myself

FOR THE RECORD, j's lines about knotting are as follows:

- definitely not if one of them is human and the other one is a wolf (TRUE)

- preferably not if both of them are humans, because HUMAN DICKS DON'T DO THAT (true, but I don't care, whatever, sign me up for all the bizarre dicks in the world)

- not for a ridiculous length of time, because, seriously, how are you supposed to stay in one position for that long?   (...actually a super-valid point.  Some of us fidget, okay?  OKAY.)
