"Oh, Bugger, Snakes Again?"

[rionaleonhart]

I met up with ms_treesap in Brighton today and, it appears, very nearly killed her with hugging. Er, whoops. We talked at great length about Doctor Who and RPF and, for reasons that I am sure made plenty of sense at the time, Master/K-9, and we concluded that Septimus of Stardust is quite clearly the reincarnation of Severus Snape, and then we went to see Ratatouille, which I enjoyed very much, largely on account of its being gloriously silly. It was, however, the first time in a long time I have come away from a film without a head full of crossover ideas. (It was also the first time in a long time I have watched a film without th_esaurus. I suspect that this may not be a coincidence.)

It was lovely to meet you, ms_treesap! I AM SORRY FOR RAMBLING SO MUCH.

(I found the following saved on the automatic post recovery and do not actually remember writing it: If any of you actually needed absolute proof that the Top Gear fandom has corrupted me beyond repair, here it is: I just absently thought 'I can't actually think of any cars that James May is likely to have had sex with. That's strange.' OKAY THEN, SELF.)

No, you have a point. James would obviously shag motorbikes, and shag them whilst wearing the proper biking leathers because, well, protection.

I literally just spat my drink. XD Thankfully just back into my glass. Euw. But YEAH. *cracking up*

And he so would.

Yes! That's what I was thinking! It's the primal rawness that bikes offer over cars, and all the engine oil. Cars are too civilised. What James May really wants is to get down and dirty and covered in oil, because secretly he's a filthy, filthy pervert. :)

And then afterwards he feels soiled and used and spends ages in the shower scrubbing himself clean, quite possibly with a specific 'purification' ritual to make himself feel like a civilised human being afterwards. Until the fantasies come creeping back...

See, I was just thinking that he was clearly a leather fetishist as well as a bike fetishist.

But in your case, I bet he has one special bike for that sort of thing.

You need to make this fic!

It was lovely to meet you too :)

True, I still don't have any. I don't seem to have the brain for such things.I was vaguely considering the possibility of Remy the rat/ the imaginary fictional ghost of Gusteau, though.

[rionaleonhart]

Heeee! Well, Remy certainly did fanboy Gusteau a lot. (I have to admit, I was having trouble getting Remy/Linguini out of my mind. Remy was jealous of Colette; there was that scene in which Linguini was going 'I'M SORRY I MISTREATED YOU, REMY; COME BACK TO ME'...)

[dancesontrains.livejournal.com]

True; and there was all that running around and biting earlier, as well as some very cute gazing at each other XD

Ooh, and I should probably put this into every post I make on your journal: *grins at you with distracting teeth*

...I don't like what you're insinuating.

[rionaleonhart]

There's nothing wrong with being a crossover catalyst, RD.

As if I didn't have to see this movie already!!!! Eeek! Thank you! :)

[rionaleonhart]

I hope you enjoy it! It seems that we were both independently reminded of Snape when watching it, so you are more or less guaranteed some Snapiness. And, even setting the Snape aspect aside, Septimus is awesome.

[ms-katonic.livejournal.com]

And yes, Septimus is a long-lost relative of Snape! Has to be! He sneaked over the Wall one day as a youth, met up with a lady of the Prince family and there you have it. Possibly the lady's surname was not even Prince, but her son got called that because his father was said to be one.

I may be insane...
