I am perfectly calm and rational.

I knew it was coming.. I knew it. The minute they went to the podium, my brain flashed Every Political Assassination Ever. And yet, wow, was that upsetting. I'm startled and disoriented and pissed the fuck off. And yet, strangely optimistic. The transfusion at least makes sense now.
There. See. That's all I have to say about that (lies).
I've never had a character that I love die on me canonically. I've killed them off plenty (I had a moratorium put on me in HP, because I kept knocking off vast quantities of people), but this is new. I don't really like it very much. It's one thing for me to leave, but quite something else to be left.
I am, thankfully, busy with RL, but I also find myself reading my old Heroes stuff because, frankly, Tim Kring can suck my left tit. Nathan's not dead. That's just unacceptable. This show should be dead to me, but since I have to write an ending that I can live with, let's just say that the lid on the casket is still open.
*Is this episode airing again, because I need to see it but I can't buy it from iTunes, what with the WGA strike and that?
Does anybody have any music they want to share with the class? I think we could all use some, so, bring your music here. Tell your friends. Make them bring some too. Here, I'll start with this mixed tape entitled FUTK, which shockingly enough does not stand for Fuck You Toby Keith*
1. The Blow Monkeys 'It Doesn’t Have to Be This Way'
2. Jason Mraz '10,000 Motherfuckers'
3. Beastie Boys 'Sabotage'
4. Mark Ronson f/ Lily Allen 'Oh My God' (Kaiser Chiefs cover)
5. Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds 'People Ain't No Good'
6. Aretha Franklin 'Respect'
7. Betty Davis 'Anti-Love Song'
8. Garbage 'The World is Not Enough'
9. Zero 7 'This World'
10. T-Rex 'Bang a Gong (Get on it)'
11. Damien Rice 'The Professor'
12. Dixie Chicks 'Not Ready to Make Nice'
*Shut up and Sing represent!

Date: 2007-12-04 08:01 pm (UTC)To cheer you up, I did actually write that 'West-is-Kon' fic. I left you a comment when I first posted it, but I'm not sure you got it, so I'm trying again.
Here it is. (http://becs1024.livejournal.com/108477.html) I'd love to know what you think.

Date: 2007-12-04 09:21 pm (UTC)It's hard for me to stay faithful to a series. If something doesn't sit right with me, I'll walk away. Like Lost, when Sun found her pregnancy test on a deserted island. I stopped watching immediately. But with Heroes, I gave them multiple chances to redeem themselves and it was worse: they found the pregnancy test, aborted the fetus, the fetus came back to life as a zombie and messed shit up---that's Heroes.
They're recycling plots and this is the second time they've ended a season with Nathan's life hanging in the balance. It's just old. I love Nathan and Peter, devoutly so, but Kring needs to stop being an asshole before I'll watch the show again.
Nathan's not dead, please write it and make it so. :(
no subject
Date: 2007-12-05 01:37 am (UTC)HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I'd stopped watching way before then, but whooo, really?
I promise to write Nathan better. The show needs all the assistance it can get.

Date: 2007-12-04 09:32 pm (UTC)But I agree with the others who say that this is one of those shows where no one is ever really dead.
You can always write how it *really* went and make yourself feel better. That's what I did after the Angel series finale.

Do you get the G4 network? They replay the most recent episode on Saturday night and Sunday afternoon.

Date: 2007-12-07 07:08 am (UTC)Lykke Li - Little Bit (http://www.divshare.com/download/3028946-6d4): It might start off a little odd, but most of the appeal is that it is catchy and fun and so very pop, the way that pop was meant to be.
Jose Gonzalez - Teardrop(Massive Attack Cover) (http://www.divshare.com/download/3029020-570): The original of the song first come to my attention as the theme song for House. I rather like how Jose Gonzalez brings another layer that makes it softer than the original.
The Blow - Pile of Gold (http://www.divshare.com/download/3029037-339): I like the hook, and the message amuses me.
Black Moth Super Rainbow - Sun Lips (http://www.divshare.com/download/3029050-d96): I never noticed how creepy this song was until I listened to it to describe it. I think since I saw the music video first, in which a downright bafflingly disturbing sequence of events plays out, the song sort of because endearing. The song reminds me of moving on from my pseudo-ex. It is beautiful in a way.
Laura Marling - New Romantic (http://www.divshare.com/download/3029214-1a7): I came by this song on a music blog. Marling weaves lyrics together in a way that makes her stand out to me.
Ryan Adams - Wonderwall (http://www.divshare.com/download/3029217-3dd): I am afraid that no matter how many Ryan Adams songs I listen to, none will surpass this cover that is the way I came to learn his name.
Tokyo Police Club - Your English is Good (http://www.divshare.com/download/3029216-6f1): I originally intended to make up little one-liners about all the songs. I shall start now: This is a song for drinking a beer while relaxing with friends.
The Wombats - Moving to New York (http://www.divshare.com/download/3029231-07d): A song to wake you up on the way to work.
Spoon - I Turn My Camera On (http://www.divshare.com/download/3029233-47f): A song to dance around in your underwear too.
Wolev - Drapeau Blanc (http://www.divshare.com/download/3029279-17b): A song to contemplate why you can't sleep while sipping a cup of coffee.
Simian Mobile Disco - Sleep (http://www.divshare.com/download/3029286-b34): A song to come down to after a night out.
Ladytron - Destroy Everything You Touch(Hot Chip Remix) (http://www.divshare.com/download/3029296-336): A song to feel connected to everything/everyone/everywhere
1990s - You're Supposed to be my Friend (http://www.divshare.com/download/3029306-556): A song to plan a bit of schadenfreude to
Cake - I will Survive (http://www.divshare.com/download/3029317-918): A song to roll the windows down and just let to wind blow through your hair to.
I hope you enjoy these tracks.
