He's Probably The Cause Of All The Singing.

Dear Derren Brown: you cannot post images like that to your blog and expect me not to do this. You cannot. I am simply not strong enough.




(If you feel like posting manips involving Derren Brown, High School Musical or both in the comments, please do!)

Strangely, the prospect of Derren Brown/Ryan Evans does not immediately thrill me. That is not to say that I wouldn't be delighted were someone to write it, but I would have expected to be more excited by the concept. Hmm.

OH, WAIT: young Christian Derren, with Ryan trying to encourage him to accept his sexuality? Yes. Clearly I was just looking at the pairing from the wrong angle.

Also, I want Derren to mess with Troy's mind in some way and Troy to look hugely bewildered.

I don't think Chad would like Derren at all. Sharpay, on the other hand, would be enormously and terrifyingly attracted to him. Derren would be slightly alarmed by this.

I am dead. Dead of laughter.

IT WAS JUST IMPOSSIBLE TO RESIST.

YOU ARE MAD GENIUS! ! ! :D

Is it bad that it took me a second of looking at the image to see what was Photoshopped? *facepalm*

[rionaleonhart]

I don't know about 'bad', but I find it very, very amusing. See, Derren, you fit into High School Musical perfectly.

Young Christian Derren Does Not Dance?

[thrennion.livejournal.com]

Holy THIS, Batman!

[th-esaurus.livejournal.com]

This was, I must say, one of the best first-posts-on-my-flist I have ever woken up to.

[make-a-move.livejournal.com]

He fits in so well, I totally didn't notice what you'd done for a good five minutes.

I do love that it takes you one line of an LJ entry to change your mind.

Also, my personal theory is that everyone at the school in High School Musical has a brain aneurism, a la the lady in the musical episode of Scrubs, and upon graduation they all SUDDENLY DIE. (I may be slightly sadistic.)

Also, for a moment I thought you meant he had posted that exact image to his blog, and I was all, "...he's a High School Musical fan? Quite honestly, that was unexpected."

[dracothelizard.livejournal.com]

Sharpay would drag Derren into a scheme to stop Troy and Gabriella from being the leads in the musical, and, er, hijinks ensue.

[amy-wolf.livejournal.com]

Aw, he fits!

I love how your mind works. And I think this fic should exist. Everyone should get a Ryan to help them through adolescent sexual identity confusion, except possibly some of the people who really just go for womem. And even then, many of them would enjoy a Generally Supportive Ryan.

I don't think Chad would like Derren at all. Sharpay, on the other hand, would be enormously and terrifyingly attracted to him. Derren would be slightly alarmed by this.

Derren could try to date Sharpay, despite the terror, as an "I'm not gay, really! Look at me with this attractive woman! Obviously not gay and more into here brother! Not a bit of it!" thing?

[rionaleonhart]

Exactly. (But Ryan knows he can!)

RIONA, I have a HSM3 mug which came with a discount Easter Egg. Would you like it?

[rionaleonhart]

Hee! It's very kind of you to offer, but I'm not sure I can trust the postal services to deliver it to me unbroken. Thank you, though. (Obviously you need to get into High School Musical so you can fully appreciate your mug-ownership.)

(THAT'S AN OPTION I'M CURIOUS ABOUT BUT DON'T KNOW HOW TO TELL PEOPLE. I MEAN, OH GOD, I HATED GREASE, HOW DO I TELL THEM I'M CURIOUS ABOUT A NOTORIOUSLY GUILTY PLEASURE DISNEY MUSICAL)

[rionaleonhart]

(Say you are watching it just to mock it! Then, if you hated it, you can say that you hated it and maintain your dignity. Otherwise, you can say that you hated it, but you can tell me the truth.

It is all worth it just for Zac Efron's angsty golf course dance.

Actually, that's a lie. It is all worth it just for the YouTube video of Zac Efron's angsty golf course dance set to the Pokémon theme.)

(Er, edited because it is Zac Efron's angsty golf course dance. Not Zac Efron's angsty golf course. Zac Efron does not, to my knowledge, own an angsty golf course.)

Clearly what is needed is some form of High School Musical support group, for those who like or think they might like terrible Disney musicals.

"Hello, my name is firefly99, I...I've never done anything like this before. Lately, I've been wondering if I shouldn't be breaking free. How do I tell my parents?"

[calamitysxchild.livejournal.com]

It took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out what was wrong with that picture.

[rionaleonhart]

Had Derren Brown actually posted that in his blog, I would probably have fainted in confusion and delight. (You know what I would really like to see on the Derren Brown blog? This. I think you should e-mail it to Phillis.)

(Check your e-mail.)

(Edited because I forgot to close a bracket, argh. I CAN'T JUST LEAVE A BRACKET UNCLOSED.)

[rionaleonhart]

Heh, all right. I shall resist the temptation to send Phillis an 'a friend of mine, who wishes to remain anonymous...' e-mail, because I am not an entirely terrible person. (The temptation to get Derren to sign the original in June is also rather strong, I have to admit. But I won't.)

[rionaleonhart]

'Wrong'? What an appalling typo. There shouldn't be a 'w' at the beginning, the 'on' should be an 'i', and you forgot the 'ht' after the 'g'.

[rionaleonhart]

He does fit in alarmingly well. Next time I watch a High School Musical film, I'm going to keep expecting Derren Brown to appear and being disappointed when he fails to show up.
