i got invited to the governor's ball, which is the emmy after party, but why would i go when a) i really don't wanna and b) all my formal clothes are back east and c (which probably should've be 'a')) none of the shows i watch on telly got nominated for jack shit? no nods for SV or QAF or... He-Man. *g* -- and then dealing with that bollocks all night long? err. no

HP:Dirty Little Secrets
The only person who never seemed to underestimate Marcus was Oliver, and to say Marcus found it vexing was a small understatement.
Wood was a Gryffindor which was only one level up from the scum that generally accumulated in the bristles of Marcus' Firebolt after one too many hard landings, and it just wasn't on. Marcus was a Slytherin, and he had, well, not morals, but a certain standing to uphold.
That Wood got it when no one else did, it was worrisome. It was a cause for some concern. Mordred only knew what that said about Marcus. Merlin only knew what that said about Wood.
Wood the golden boy. Wood the upstanding, brave-hearted, boot-licker who probably took it up the bum. Hmmm.
Still, it wasn't as though Marcus was a noble and upstanding student, but if Wood could see through him this way. If Wood knew about Marcus and his secrets: Muggle comic books, spinach-flavoured Bertie Botts and... wait for it, a brain. Marcus would be buggered six ways from Saturday.
It would be only a matter of time before the rest came out, and that really wasn't on.
So, that's why Marcus did it. That's why he snogged Wood, because if Marcus was going to be exposed, he was going to be the one doing the exposing.

SV: 3 A.M.
The mutant chickens had been vanquished, their crazed postal worker-breeder had been subdued, and life was back to what-passed-for-normal in Smallville. There was no reason for Lex to still be relaxing (hiding out) in the loft, not at three o'clock in the morning.
Correction: there was no Jonathan Kent-justified reason. However, there was a Clark Kent-justified reason, and that was good enough for Lex. Not that Lex tended to need any sort of rationalization where Clark was concerned, but the horrific flannel and vinyl sofa still deserved some serious explanation.
Lex hated the way the vinyl stuck to the back of his head like the cheap imitation leather it was. Still, it provided Lex was the means to stretch out next to Clark and observe him in his peripheral vision, so Lex couldn't really complain.
"It's three a.m., don't you think you should be heading to bed soon?" Not that Lex wouldn't mind staying up with Clark all night, but one of them had to pretend to be responsible. "I don't remember you getting special dispensations just for saving the town from Chicken Little and his cronies."
"It's three a.m. and I don't see you leaving to go home yet either." Damn observant teenagers.
"I'm getting old, it takes me longer to get moving."
"I'd forgotten, did you want me to pull your wheelchair up to the bottom of the stairs?" Damn sarcastic teenagers.
"Sarcasm becomes you, Clark, but remember my age the next time you can't do something legally." Well, besides that at any rate.
"I think it's a bit late to be worrying about legalities, Lex." Damn smart teenagers.
"I like to pretend to be moral."
"You do have morals, Lex. Well, a moral at any rate."
"Sarcasm will get you everywhere, Clark."
"And that's just where I want to be." A pause. "It's only three, can't you stay a bit longer."
"Only three? Only three." A beat. "Sure, why not?"

It's a Brian Kinney kinda moment, babe.
no subject
Brian knows! Brian knows that all those people would be too busy preening for the cameras to have sex in the restroom. So, you know, really no reason for me to go.

Thanks for the Marcus/Oliver. I want to write you a drabble now. Or possibly make another animated song icon. Ugghh, stop me.
no subject
Now, as for the M/O, I watched the movie against this weekend, you are right. You are SO right. The part in the Quidditch where Marcus tries to score and Oliver blocks him. That was a 'I know you'll fuck me senseless to make me pay anyway' moment if ever I saw one.
no subject
Sometimes I watch it...
no subject
How can you *not* watch it. All I need is Voltron, or, hmm, G.I. Joe and we're in business. I'm thoroughly disappointed in the new Transformers though. Damnit.

And the SV! The first line totally killed me. Laughing out loud over here. And the snark! I heart the snark, for it is wonderful. And the ending was terribly yes-worthy. Aw, Lex. Can't resist the farmboy.
Good stuff, darling, as per usual.

So, insert 'Kassie' where it says Oliver, and, yeah, I knew you could read my mind.
Shit. I don't want to like this guy! I have enough guys. Stupid Wood. I don't like him either. He's an idiot.
Mordred...I fucking love you! I am your bitch. Command me. I won't wear gold and red, though. Forget that.
Oh, hm. I will have to consider this. Yes, this Marcus is worth some time. Worth a go. Worth a snog behind the common room couch.

hush, he is not. don't make me go on the oliver offensive like rabbit is with marcus.
