I'm Dreaming Of A White Easter...

WHATEVER, CRAZY BRITISH WEATHER.

Happy Easter! Everyone seems to be ill at the moment, and I'm no exception, but I hope that at least some of you are well.

I haven't updated for a few days, so here are some things that happened during that time:

- On Thursday, I went to see the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain again! They are still absolutely amazing. Also, I met maestro1123, and seriously, how can every single Livejournal person I have ever met in real life be so awesome? I've met thirty-two people on my friendslist now, and I have very much enjoyed the company of every one of them. (And I think that my tendency to give gigantic crushing hugs has actually got worse. THIS IS THE DANGER OF GIVING ME LABELS: I GROW INTO THEM FAR TOO EASILY. When I was labelled 'that zombie girl', having previously being fairly uninterested in the undead (no, really), I immediately set to talking too much about zombies and writing zombie apocalypse fic. When people started calling me 'the queen of crackfic', I started writing crackfic and almost nothing but. Now that my LJ friends view me as 'the person who gives alarmingly enthusiastic hugs', it's only a matter of time before I actually knock someone over. I politely request that you do not take advantage of this tendency by labelling me 'the girl who gives all her money to her LJ friends'.)

Rather to my distress, maestro1123 said that I was 'surprisingly normal' in real life. CLEARLY I AM DOING SOMETHING WRONG.

- High School Musical 2 was on BBC One a few days ago, and so, because I've always been rather curious about this High School Musical thing, I sat down and watched it. I desperately, desperately want Ryan Evans to have a boyfriend in the next instalment - you know, unless the fact that he had an enormously homosexual song with Chad and then the two of them were wearing each other's clothes in their next appearance counts - but th_esaurus has crushed my hopes and dreams by reminding me that this is fairly unlikely in a Disney film. ALAS.

I am trying to think of a good boyfriend for Ryan from my other fandoms, but it is difficult. Maybe -

WAIT, I'VE GOT IT. RYAN EVANS/ZELL DINCHT. YES. (Ryan Evans/Ron Weasley could also potentially work.)

I enjoyed the film, in case you are wondering! It was thoroughly ridiculous, of course, and the plot was appallingly rubbish, but it was fun and had catchy songs. This is all I ask from a musical!

I recently discovered that two new people (a boy and a girl) have been cast in HSM3, and my immediate thought was "I hope the boy is Ryan's future boyfriend, for Riona's sake."

I DON'T DANCE IS THE MOST HOMOSEXUAL SONG IN THE WORLD EVER. And considering that that Fabulous song with all the pink is in the same movie? Yeah.

I got comps to see HSM the stage version when it came up here to Edinburgh a month ago, and let me tell you, the Ryan in that show was camper than Soho Square on Pride day. It was hilarious. :-D

Ryan is just the best character of the entire thing. Him and his hats need a boyfriend so badly.

*watching musical bit*

asfgjksdglskjha;g;jhfg man you were not KIDDING. *explodes* I'll finish watching that...later. That needs full attention to fully ocmprehend the ridiculousness that is Disney. *chokes* the dance moves.

There's apparently an HS musical 3 now too, or coming out soon? I don't know anything about the HS's except that they are ridiculous cheesy and to actually pay attention to the lyrics results in brain cell death, but I have no idea if the characters are re-used or not. If they aren't, you could certainly get away with something like a "continuation" =D (and if not, AUs anyone? Or perhaps, what happens after high school?) *bricked*

OH GOD.


OH GOD.


HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL IS THE BANE OF MY EXISTENCE.


Just so you're aware, if you write any crackfics involving that fandom, I will be unable to read them, otherwise I'm fairly sure my head would explode.

Most anything else you have to write, however, I will certainly read. ;)

I don't believe this...

I just wanted to let you know that I've had both of those songs switching off repeat in my head ever since you introduced them to me, I've just put both on my mp3 player, and I've got the moves from each half memorized already. Thanks.

By the way, I don't know how uplifting this might be, if at all, but there are chances that Ryan, while not getting a boyfriend in the next film, probably won't have a girlfriend either. Because yes, while Disney must be safe, they have been absolutely notorious for subtext in the past and I could see them evening things out a little. After all, who would ever suspect?

(Except people like us. I mean "Chad: I'll show you how I swing" ... "Ryan: That's what I mean, that's how you swing." Honestly.)

*shot*

Ryan Evans/Neville Longbottom (but due to a misunderstanding Ryan thinks Neville and Jeff are romantic partners and not just crimefighting not-quite-superhero partners and woes a lot.)

ajlsk;haf! I have to add Ryan to that Adorkably Awesome crosover meeting guestlist!
