I Think You'll Find This One Even Softer.

So I suddenly and unexpectedly fell in crazy love with Derren Brown at around 3.00-4.30 in this clip. It really hit me at 4.16-4.24. Apparently my type is 'oxygen-deprived lunatics'. Good to know! (Seriously, the weak 'Do you feel anything?' The way he looks up at her? I - I don't know what's wrong with me. He's like a zombie after he takes the bag off his head. I'm not attracted to zombies. Am I attracted to zombies? I really, really hope that I am not attracted to zombies. And he has a plastic bag over his face and he's breathing slowly into it and it is incredibly unsettling to watch and yet it is also somehow - it's - stop bringing out these massively disturbing fetishes in me, Mr Brown.)

I've watched 'Something Wicked This Way Comes' and 'An Evening of Wonders' in the past couple of days, and there really is something disturbingly attractive and attractively disturbing about Derren Brown. He just hovers on the brink of being evil, whilst still being polite and charismatic. A bit like the Master without the genocide.

ANYWAY, NOW THAT I HAVE ALARMED YOU AND MYSELF, SOMETHING LESS DISTURBING.

I CANNOT THINK OF ANYTHING LESS DISTURBING. Which is odd, because quite a lot is less disturbing than 'I am weirdly attracted to a rather creepy man who could probably get me to give up my purse just by asking for it nicely' (that link leads to a video on a site called 'StupidVideos', as the YouTube video does not appear to be available in the UK; if you live elsewhere and would prefer YouTube, try this link. It's only a couple of minutes long, and it's very interesting), but, no, nothing is coming to mind at the moment.

It's not weird until I start writing real-person fiction about him, right?

...right?

What about if you write RPF in which he outsmarts the Winchesters? Would that be acceptable?

(Oh goddd Derren Brown. That glass walking act just FUCKS WITH MY MIND.)

NO RPF ABOUT DERREN BROWN WILL EVER BE ACCEPTABLE.

EVER.

...I just attempted an experimental Google, and it turns out that Derren Brown RPF actually exists. There is Derren Brown/David Tennant out there.

Also, the more I think about it, the more I want the Winchesters to investigate this guy. BUT I'M NOT GOING TO WRITE IT.

There is looooads of Derren Brown/David Tennant out there. I'm not quite sure why, but I find the idea strangely intriguing nevertheless.

OH YOU KNOW YOU WILL EVENTUALLY. PERHAPS THE STIG SAVES THE DAY. (Perhaps the Stig is Derren's mysterious boyfriend.)

Also, having watched a few of his clips, I've reached the conclusion that what I would really like is a J2 AU in which Jensen is the disturbingly attractive and verging on evil illusionist guy and Jared, for some reason, teaches him how to love. idk. Or maybe Jensen just steals his wallet and shoes.

I want you to write this.

BUT OH NO THEN I'D BE READING DERREN BROWN RPF.

ALMOST.

How is it that you're perfectly fine and okay with Zombie Piers Morgan, and yet the thought of Derren Brown and the Stig fighting/engaging in crime together is so awful? HOW DOES THAT MAKE SENSE?

(shut up shut up I really want to write it now.)

I'm not weirdly attracted to Zombie Piers Morgan! This Derren Brown thing is an illness I probably should not be feeding!

(PLEASE DO. IT COULD BE SO WONDERFUL.)

Oh you know you're weirdly attracted to Zombie Piers Morgan. Deep, deep down inside.

Really deep down.

(The problem is, I would have to research the shit out of NLP etc were I to feel at all comfortable writing it. AND THEN I WOULD BE ABLE TO MAKE YOU GIVE ME YOUR PURSE. (Which, I could probably already do, thinking about it. I did make you put a sock on your head, after all.))

I DENY EVERYTHING.

(How is being able to acquire my purse a problem? ...from your perspective, I mean. It's not a very nice purse, admittedly, but still. (I would probably have ended up with that sock on my head whether you were in the room or not.))

(...I would rather you didn't steal my purse, by the way.)

Because I now kind of associate Zombie Piers Morgan with Scofield From Prison Break: there is a character in Unforgiven also called Scofield, and I watched the film pretending that PB!Scofield had broken out of prison to become a cowboy with Clint Eastwood and Samuel L. Jackson (*black ears*). It made the two hours a lot more bearable.

(It is a problem because obviously I would become drunk on my power and possibly go on an illusionist rampage and eventually Torchwood would have to put me down. Ineptly.)

(IT'S TOO LATE NOW.)

There was an episode of Trick or Treat where he gave David Tennant a 'treat' (not that kind of treat sadly) and aside from being deliciously sexual-tension-y, Derren made a few comments about how much he enojyed seeing The Tennant in a wetsuit.

It's possibly one of my favourite television moments ever. Apparently the internet agrees with me. :DD

There is Derren Brown/David Tennant out there.

There is Derren Brown/Richard Hammond out there. I have seen it. And it was actually pretty good... I'm not helping, am I?

I love Derren Brown; I always have, even though he scares the hell out of me. Clearly I am easily suggestible, and may have to be avoided if he ever does attempt world domination.

There is Derren Brown/Richard Hammond out there
ROFL WHERE

Oh great, now I have to find the links! (Lukcily, only made it to skip 20 on the TGS 'Richard/Other' tag *g*)

Here (http://telynmurali.livejournal.com/288707.html) and a sequel here (http://telynmurali.livejournal.com/293445.html).

oh my god, the worst thing is I've just realised that I do remember reading that now, actually.

I thought that was Paul McKenna?

*points up* There's Richard/Derren too; clearly the Richard/Creepy blokes with hypnotic skills movement is growing momentum...

There were a few hypnotism requests in my anon porn meme too... thank heavens no one specifically requested Richard/Derren or Paul.

Mmm, I noticed those... TGS, providing every weird kink you never thought of!

But WHY is Derren (and that's a daft version of Darren) so popular with David Tennant?

Speaking of Derren/Darren sort of names: DARREN HAYES.

Well, I did Gordon Brown/Tony Blair once. I think that also involved Zombie Piers.

I heard of that fic! Never got a chance to read it. Sounds interesting.

I've sent you a message with the fic, and I blame the Telegraph entirely: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/connected/main.jhtml?xml=/connected/2007/01/27/dlblog27.xml

Thank you!

...ahahaha. oh, me from eight months ago, how little you know.
