Aww man, Rollo Weeks was in the Little Vampire. Now I really am going to kill myself. Or maybe go back in time and stop him from starring in shitty movies that I watched because I had a crush on various leading actors (Richard E. Grant, you freaks, not that stupid little brat from Jerry Maguire). But then it would be like that episode of the Simpsons where Homer keeps going back in time and changing the course of history in unexpected and disturbing ways, and when I got back to 2006, Scipio would be played by Daniel Radcliffe and Jake Lloyd would be playing Bo, and I'd be like, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" and Hayden Christensen would cry because everyone gets to say that line except him. You want some ointment for that burn, Hayden Christensen?

In other news, whenever I hear that Darren Hayes song, "Creeping Up On You", it totally reminds me of Pietro and Sp-ke from X-Men: Evolution. I'm not sure when Sp-ke made the transition from "annoying X Tard with lame powers, stupid hair and stupider name" to "stalker", but there you go. Man, I love that show. I wish the WB had released all of it on DVD - I want to see Lance randomly bitchslapping Pietro with an armchair and Pyro watching that video of Magneto bite it over and over while giggling psychotically and that old guy glomping Toad in the subway again. Sigh. I bet it'll be like Gargoyles or EI and it'll get released when I'm like, forty, and I'll be all, "I remember when this first aired" and my many cats will be like, "Whatever. Feed us tuna now plzkthx."

Yeah, me too. I think the "Back To The Future" one has scarred me for life.

I think the real question is, who is going to get the immortal "I wish I knew how to quit you!" line?
Uuuuuuuh... What could be a good scene for that? Prop in Scip's home?

Ah yes, the rats, the dank straw, the vague threat of being eaten by giant dogs... oh, the romance of it all.
*doubtful look* You're not being sarcastic, right? ;P

I think I was too busy wondering how come they didn't fall off the barrels when they fell asleep.
Goooood question.

Honestly, I read the book after the movie and was stunned, because to me it's even slashier. It's, like, so obviously THERE.

I think this proves Daniel Radcliffe is a Cylon.
Rock-hard logic *nods*

I bet they even have special Sith Academy aprons.
Uuuuh *wants one* For real! That fire planet was just the oven getting out of control.

Or both of them in Ida's home. Just for the comedy value of Ida's "WTF?!" face. Right when they start yelling at each other about the gun.

Well, I have to admit, I have a weakness for quick, dirty first times in unsalubrious surroundings... I had this whole thing for an Eerie Indiana fic that involved sex on a warehouse floor, but then I remembered that I can't do sex scenes or, in fact, plot, so I abandoned it.

I read the book first, and that scene after they go to Scip's house and Prosper is furious but he's also so, so hurt, and Bo is all, "It's not that bad, Prop. It's not that bad", all I could think was "Dude, he's so in love with him." And then the scene in Ida's house where Scip asks if Prop is angry, and he doesn't reply right away and Scip runs upstairs, I was all, "Aww, silly Prosper, he loves you too." And at the end, when Scip changes his last name to Fortuna, I was like, "Jeez, now even their names are slashy." And I wanted fic, but you couldn't get one for love nor money.

That fire planet was just the oven getting out of control.
Poor Anakin. He's too dumb even to regulate the temperature on an oven. I can;t help thinking that Palpatine would have been wise to choose an apprentice that was just a little brighter, even if he might not have been quite as pretty.

*lol* Oh yes. What a passionate marital argument.

*hugs Ida*

!!! ... Not that I've watched too many episodes, but HA.

Prosper is furious but he's also so, so hurt, and Bo is all, "It's not that bad, Prop. It's not that bad", all I could think was "Dude, he's so in love with him."
God, yes *tears up* I love how Prop feels so betrayed by it all, but still is the first to forgive Scip, because he sees his side, too. And I love that the book is so elaborate on this. And how often are there tears in Prop's eyes because of Scip exactly? ;) I'd bet all my money Cornelia Funke is a slasher *nods*

And then the scene in Ida's house where Scip asks if Prop is angry, and he doesn't reply right away and Scip runs upstairs, I was all, "Aww, silly Prosper, he loves you too."
*hearts* That is so lovely. And I think it was very well played out in the movie. Poor, poor Scip. Like a kicked puppy.

There should be a fic where Prop actually goes after Scip... Or answers faster... Something.

And at the end, when Scip changes his last name to Fortuna, I was like, "Jeez, now even their names are slashy." And I wanted fic, but you couldn't get one for love nor money.
Well, you're getting some now ;) Yup, Fortunato *lol* And isn't it interesting that in the last chapter she always talks of Scip and Prop together, but not of the rest? Like "both of them often wondered", "both of them went back"...

He's too dumb even to regulate the temperature on an oven.
*sigh* There goes his career as a famous baker. Well, I guess Palpatine saw that in the end, too. After all, not much lasted of the prettiness, anyway.

Oh yes. What a passionate marital argument.
As long as neither of them wears Jake Gyllenhaal's stupid fake moustache of attempted hetrosexuality, of course.

!!! ... Not that I've watched too many episodes, but HA.
Oh please, it was totally there! Poor Dash was so in love with Mars.

God, yes *tears up* I love how Prop feels so betrayed by it all, but still is the first to forgive Scip, because he sees his side, too.
And because he fancies him, of course.

And how often are there tears in Prop's eyes because of Scip exactly? ;)
Hah! Man, I want to go through and count them now. Or like, write the Scipio/Prosper 'ship manifesto or something.

I'd bet all my money Cornelia Funke is a slasher *nods*
Damn straight. Except I don't actually have any money, and I don't think Cornelia Funke would be too pleased at "winning" my massive overdraft, but still. Totally on purpose. Have you read "Inkspell"? Oh, I'm so sure Dustfinger and Farid's relationship is father-and-son-ish.

*hearts* That is so lovely. And I think it was very well played out in the movie. Poor, poor Scip. Like a kicked puppy.
I loved him taking the mask off; I don't remember that detail being in the book, but it brought the pain of that moment home, that he takes off his mask and Prop shoots him down, not just as the Thief Lord, but as Scipio.

There should be a fic where Prop actually goes after Scip... Or answers faster... Something.
Or snogs him. Hard and with youthful abandon. Fuck the wing and the roundabout and the Conte; just give me pretty boys kissing and all will be well.

Well, you're getting some now ;)
I swear, the movie is the best thing to happen to this fandom, for all my little gripes and nitpicks.

Yup, Fortunato *lol*
Oops. I was reading the Last Unicorn beforehand and got all mixed up. I suck.

And isn't it interesting that in the last chapter she always talks of Scip and Prop together, but not of the rest? Like "both of them often wondered", "both of them went back"...
"And both of them totally got it on in that old castle and it was totally hot and everyone was pleased."

*sigh* There goes his career as a famous baker. Well, I guess Palpatine saw that in the end, too. After all, not much lasted of the prettiness, anyway.
Poor Palpatine. He shoudl have seen this as a learning curve, but no, he went and got thrown down a giant hole instead.
