rionaleonhart: final fantasy x-2: the sun is rising, yuna looks to the future. (all i wanted)
...oh, dear, I've reached Zanarkand and I think I've realised that my period of hating Tidus was probably emotional insulation. When you actually like the characters and care about what happens to them, Final Fantasy X is the most soul-crushingly upsetting thing in the entire world. IT'S SO MISLEADINGLY BRIGHT AND COLOURFUL AND SILLY AT THE BEGINNING AND TIDUS IS SUCH AN ADORABLE DORK AND THEN THE PLOT COMES ALONG AND STABS EVERYONE IN THE FACE AND MAKES ME CRY BUCKETLOADS.

Also, Tidus and Yuna are so cute I can barely stand it. SHE RUNS UP TO HOLD HIS HAND. IT IS ADORABLE. That Scene In Macalania is completely ridiculous (and Tidus' brain-eating grin terrifies me), but it is also sort of charming!


Anyway! Before season four of Supernatural begins (please note that I do not live in America and if you spoil me I'll cry), I would like to introduce you to someone! His name is Delaware Singer, and he is one of my absolute favourite Supernatural characters, and it makes me very very sad that, you know, he's not technically a Supernatural character in the 'actually appears or is even mentioned in the episodes' sense.

Delaware Singer is the brilliant invention of [livejournal.com profile] sazzlette and [livejournal.com profile] wanttobeatree. (He'll tell you his surname is Springer, but don't believe it.) He is Bobby Singer's hypothetical estranged hooker son, and he is hypothetically played by Chad Michael Murray, and he is a bit of a lunatic and ridiculously fun and I know that the fourth season is going to be a gigantic letdown because he is almost certainly not going to be in it.

I hope to make up for this by persuading you all to write fanfiction about him. (Hey, it worked with Zombie Piers Morgan.)

[livejournal.com profile] sazzlette and [livejournal.com profile] wanttobeatree have been roleplaying his adventures in the Impala over here (spoilers for the end of the third season). They are hilarious, and then when you're looking the other way they clobber you over the head and break your heart. Delaware is a little like Dean, except better-adjusted and unconstrained by broadcasting regulations and with more terrible hooker jokes. What's not to love? (Also, the hypothetical mutilated pairing name for Sam Winchester/Delaware Singer is 'Salmonella'. I think that alone is more than enough reason to write it.)

Yeah, so my 'wait until the third season of Prison Break goes down to a more reasonable price before buying it' plan wasn't entirely, er, carried out. By which I mean that I seized upon the first excuse my brother gave me to purchase it. WHAT'S THAT, JOSEPH? YOU'VE SORTED OUT YOUR UNIVERSITY APPLICATION? WELL OBVIOUSLY I MUST BUY THE PRISON BREAK BOXSET AS YOUR REWARD. YES. HEY, I'M JUST BEING A GOOD SISTER.


Spoilers for 'Orientación'. I KNOW THAT NOBODY CARES ABOUT MY PRISON BREAK ENTRIES BUT I LIKE MAKING THEM ANYWAY. )


A reminder: despite being a year behind everyone else, I have managed to avoid spoilers and have absolutely no idea what the future of Prison Break holds. Please do not tell me anything that happens after 'Orientación', no matter how minor. Thank you!

(I am also a gigantic freak about Supernatural spoilers, so if you could tread carefully there as well I'd be very grateful.)

(Why don't I gleefully cross Prison Break over with anything and everything in my rambling entries about it? I do it with all of my other fandoms.)
