She's Written Carshagging; I Can See It In Her Eyes.

Today, I met up with [livejournal.com profile] th_esaurus and we had glorious rambling sense-of-directionless adventures around the Covent Garden area! She had brought her Top Gear fingerpuppets, which are the cutest things in the entire world. Seriously, I thought I'd discovered the pinnacle of cute when I saw the photographs of them on her LJ, but they are, impossibly, even more adorable in Real Life.

Because she hates me, [livejournal.com profile] th_esaurus sat me down in Leicester Square and made me listen to 'Misty's Song' from the Pokémon soundtrack. It was horrific. I'm not sure that I can find the words to truly express the awfulness, although I gather from her amused reaction that my expression did so quite adequately.

Then we went to watch The Lives of Others together, which I really rather enjoyed. Wiesler was utterly lovely, and I desperately wanted to give him a hug for more or less the entire second half of the film. I was terribly upset that he and 'Lazlo' never spoke. My personal Awesome Revised Ending takes place just after the operation is called off and basically consists of Lazlo working out what Wiesler did and then the two of them running away to West Germany together.

Also, I rather want to put Wiesler into Silent Hill. That almost goes without saying, doesn't it? But I think he'd probably be an excellent candidate; he's certainly got enough guilt for it, and the desire for redemption makes it even better.


The topic of Top Gear/Kingdom Hearts crossovers came up briefly while we were eating ice-cream afterwards (WHY, YES, MY DAY WAS AWESOME), and she suggested the idea of Sora developing a crush on Richard. Which would be adorable. Similarly adorable was her suggestion of Richard Hammond wingfic. Just imagine him flitting happily around while Jeremy sulks on the ground! (Jeremy Clarkson with wings is something I cannot imagine at all.)

It really was a wonderful day; I absolutely loved wandering around and rambling about Top Gear and Doctor Who and Fullmetal Alchemist and fanfiction and what would happen if one put the Doctor, the Master and River Tam in the TARDIS together. [livejournal.com profile] th_esaurus is fantastic, you guys! Also, she has the most prettily-shaped eyes I've ever seen.

(P.S. BODYSWAP FANFICTION.)

WTF EYES?!?!?!

Also, you beat me. Bah! I am just typing up a similarly enthused post ;DDDD

*HUGS YOUR FACE*

Every time I said YOUR/MY FACE today, I felt like a total retard btw.

I-I did not notice such staring!?

AND THAT IS BECAUSE I AM A RETARD WHO LIVES ON THE INTERNETS.

"Just imagine him flitting happily around while Jeremy sulks on the ground! (Jeremy Clarkson with wings is something I cannot imagine at all.)"

I foresee horrible things in that scenario for James and his beloved aeroplane.

YAY FOR HAPPY DAYS.

And then I thought, oh, let's look up Misty's Song on youtube, and you are right it is AWFUL. Especially when combined with horrible fanvid (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=9C5kBlctiMM).

Dare you to use it for an overly dramatic Top Gear badfic.

Yes, surely Misty's Song would also cover how much of an IDIOT Ash is, and how he still owes her a bicycle? Misty doesn't strike me the type to pine angstily under a moon.

But it would be hilarious and ridiculous with pining and angst and eventual heartfelt declarations of love!

It could be a belated entry for the badfic challenge! and I'm not going to answer that.

FTW! Is it wrong that I can see this so clearly?

Oh that's good; 'this' is the Richard with wings part... (Sentences I thought I'd never type #370)

(*beams* I am seriously considering it, damn you :P)

Oh, oh, I did not know you were going to see The Lives Of Others! Isn't it brilliant? The very very last moment with the "It's for me" (or something; paraphrasing) just made me go "OHHHH" internally, and indeed very nearly out loud, but I stopped myself, although there were only about eight people in the cinema so it probably wouldn't have mattered much.

Pokemon has a soundtrack?!

(Is it bad that I can imagine winged!Jeremy all too easily? "Get out of the way, May, I'm trying to outsrip that jet!")

Squee! I have the theme tune, but apart from that nothing else. :D

(He so would! And he'd probably end up falling in with some rowdy seagulls.)

No worries. :)
