I will be king...and you, you will be queen

[hackthis_archive]

So. There was this show on last night. I dunno if anybody caught it besides me. It was called The Petrelli Show. Yeah, it's a good show. Lots of hotassery and angst and like other stuff. Very Shakespearean if you like that sort of thing. I totally recommend it.

I told sameoldhope that my reaction to last night's Heroes could be summed up in this manner Nathan...Nathan looking hot... Nathan working for the feebies...Nathan and Peter.... Sex now? Nuts... Wow was that gay... Nathan is so hot... Nathan is so hot... THE NATHAN AND HIRO SHOW, YAY!!!!!!..... Nathan with his collar unbuttoned....Niki Szzzzzzzzz.... OH GOD THEY PICKED THE SCARIEST MAN ON EARTH AS LINDERMAN!...Nathan as President... Lex will be pissed...Nathan... Nathan...I love you, Mrs. P.... Claire is still boring to me... etcetera.... etcetera...

In English...


1) NATHAN IS THE HOTTEST MAN ON EARTH, AND I AM SORRY HE HAS TO WORK WITH THE FEEBLES.

2) Plz to see #1

3) So. Um. How about Nathan working for the feds? His collar was unbuttoned, and I just wanted to lick him, oh, Adrian Pasdar you are so hot. Okay... okay...

4) HAHAHAHAHAHA! S&M are totally living up to their pairing monker. Seriously. Okay, wait, first of all, let me back up the cart and say people who are feeling the Sylar/Mohinder should rilly rilly read aheartfulofyou's Stained, because I've been poking around the S&M (that will never stop being funny) and this is damn good. Talk about some multiple personality issues.

4a) Mohinder, for about five minutes you were The Man. I was hella impressed at the size of your cojones, I thought 'Wait, maybe he's not as fucking stupid as he seems' but then you fucked it all up by underestimating Sylar and that's just -- THAT WAS FUCKING DUMB. Only a very stupid man thinks his enemy is stupid. -- That's actually me paraphrasing Layer Cake, but the sentiment still applies. If you have not seen Layer Cake with 007, you are fired.

4b) Um, dude, they were pretty damn slashy in the opening scenes, before Mohinder went all rogue and drugged Sylar, which is NEVER going to stop being awesome. Really. Well done.

5) Peter and Nathan. I think that spoke for itself in Nathan's office no? *blinks* I can't be real coherant, because they were that close, and there were hands on shoulders and I really expected them to kiss at any minute. Really. Even when I was trying to be objective. At least one on the forehead -- c'mon. Dude, c'mon.

5a) Also, Nathan did not look that shocked that Peter kept appearing and disappearing. This HAS happened before. I told you it did! I win!

5b) \O/

5c) See 5b

6) Some other stuff happened. Mr. Bennett was hella awesome. That new mutant. Natasha or some shizz, whatever. I don't like her. She's bratty... much like Claire. I know there's a whole cadre of people out there who think Claire is the shit, and totally the best thing since manicures were invented, but everytime she opens her mouth she's fucking whinging, and it drives me bonkers. Goddamn teenagers. She has like NO appreciation for what her dad did -- just because she's unbreakable doesn't mean they are! This is the same issue I had with Smallville -- oh, one of the SV writers is writing for Heroes you say? Well, that explains a lot.

Dear Mother and Father,

I am sorry about my teenage years. If I was anything like this it's a wonder I wasn't taken out back and shot. I am sure you are thrilled that I grew out of it.

Love,
Me

It's a shame we can't take Claire out back and shoot her. Well, we could, but she's invincible, which means it would just be a waste of buckshot or whatever people use for such things. You have no idea how much the realization she can't be offed depresses me.

7) The Nathan and Hiro Show is love. Hiro thought Nathan was mean. Can we all just look at the first Heroes story I ever wrote? The Hiro & Nathan in Vegas one entitled what? You Can Be Mean and I'll Drink All the Time. \O/

8) Dear Tim,

I am drawing pink sparkly hearts around your name right now!

Love,
Me

9) *deep breath* About a month ago boniblithe came to me and said 'They cast Linderman, do you want to know who...' and I said 'NO! NONONONONO! Don't tell me. I want it to be a surprise! I don't like Heroes spoilers. And nobody else tell me either!' And thankfully, nobody did. Everybody gets cookies. Because let me tell you -- when Malcolm McDowell turned around, I about wet myself.

If you have not see A Clockwork Orange, or Gangster No.1, or I'll Sleep When I'm Dead (with Clive Owen) consider yourself a lucky unscarred person. Malcolm Mcdowell is a scary ass motherfucker, and I was truly truly afeared on Nathan's behalf in ways you can't even imagine if you've never seen those films. That's some serious casting, yo.

Also? He was Ari's old boss on Entourage. Yeah, dude. I SAID GODDAMN!!

10) Petrelli for President. Where are the icons, don't front.

11) Claire snzzzzzz -- OMG MAMA PETRELLI IS THE AWESOMEST. I'm so not surprised though, look at her children. And she was speaking French. *draws sparkly hearts around Mrs. P too*

12) Oh, Peter, baby. I was hoping you'd snuck down to Vegas with your brother. Why do you and your niece have no common sense? Huh. People dripping blood from the ceiling. I feel like I stepped into some WB show. Oh, wait, nobody caught on fire -- never mind. ;)



Randomly...

a) Anybody entertaining the thought that Linderman is some sort of psychic or empath too, or whatever.

b) Linderman is Nathan and Peter's daddy and Mama Petrelli is trying to protect them from their daddy -- it would work in that way that Mr. B was trying to protect Claire from Linderman. Lots and lots of daddy issues round these parts.

c) Mama Petrelli is AWESOMECAKES!

d) Mama Petrelli totally has some crazyass power and it involves stealing SOCKS!

e) I'd originally had a fic idea with Nathan and Peter speaking Italian (no antheia I didn't forget, but now maybe it should be French.

I was so much aflail while watching this show. And when I watched it again.

I am sitting and waiting around for the next 2 hours, so methinks I will pull out my ipod and watch it again.

(And no, I haven't been refreshing your lj every ten minutes since this morning awaiting your review/comments. I've been hitting refresh every 15 minutes. Sorry I'm being stalkery!)

I've discovered that after Nathan-centric episodes my brain seems to shut down. A lot of the time I can't really focus on the program for the 13 y.o. screaming in my head OMG!IT'S NATHAN!!1111I HEART NATHAN!NATHAN 4EVA!!!!

You know what's weird? I've seen some people who aren't familiar with Malcom McDowell positing that he's like Richard Attenborough in Jurassic Park or some other santa-type or yoda-type.

But he just screams badscaryEV01 to me. It's all subtext, I guess?
