rionaleonhart: final fantasy x-2: the sun is rising, yuna looks to the future. (can't tear us apart)
Waterloo Road fanfiction I should want to read even less than all the other Waterloo Road fanfiction I also shouldn't want to read: Chris/Finn hatesex.

I mean, episode fifteen of the fifth series? The way they were furious with each other and felt the need to express it by putting their faces very very close together? Kind of hot. Not to mention the fact that tormenting Chris clearly turns Finn on (look at his behaviour after the car incident!).

Chris has a bit of a habit of getting very close to people when he's angry with them, doesn't he? He's fairly tactile as it is, but particularly when he's angry; he'll hold pupils by the arm or back them against the wall. Bit of a sexy dark side showing through there, I feel.


Here is the problem with my getting into something that has no LJ fandom: I feel the need to make an entire fandom's worth of Livejournal entries about it.

Here is the other problem: as I'm making so many entries about one thing, I try to think of things to include for the benefit of people who have no interest in that thing, and the resulting ideas are often absolutely terrible.

Here is an example of such a terrible idea: Riona ineptly sings the first Pokémon theme to the tune of 'Mad World' (a warning: I'm not a great singer at the best of times, and here I'm singing a tiny bit below my range and therefore sound incredibly nasal, but this is really more about putting a (terrible) idea out there than about a non-excruciating musical experience). WMA format, I'm afraid, but really those of you who can't play WMA files have had a lucky escape. It's quiet, so you may need to turn your volume up; don't forget to turn it down again afterwards, because otherwise the next thing you listen to may cause you to fall out of your chair in shock. I speak from experience.

I'm - I'm really sorry.

Apparently Livejournal still has not fixed the problem that causes non-US voiceposts to cut off mid-recording, but you get the idea.

In which, blatantly stealing an idea from [livejournal.com profile] firefly99 (and, less directly, I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue), I play Festive One Song to the Tune of Another with voice posting.

I am really really really really sorry.

(THE SINGING IS BAD BECAUSE I AM NERVOUS AND OBVIOUSLY NOT BECAUSE I AM A TERRIBLE SINGER OR ANYTHING.)

EDIT: Ahahaha, it doesn't like my accent at all, does it? I hope I am not this incoherent to you. (HOW DID IT KNOW 'SILENT HILL' NEEDED CAPITAL LETTERS? I AM SUSPICIOUS.)

Things I Have Learnt From Voice Posting:
1. My fear of telephones means that making a voice post leaves me absolutely flooded with adrenaline and shaking all over. This means that making a voice post just before attempting to go to sleep is a stupid thing to do.
2. If I have an easy, quick way of posting whatever insane idea comes to me at one in the morning, I will post it. This is probably not a good thing.

And now for something completely different: a poll! I was absolutely convinced that the desks really were like that for an embarrassingly long time.


[Poll #969328]

In other news, I saw Some Like It Hot again yesterday, for the first time since I was but a child. It will never stop being wonderful, but I never really realised before what an absolute bastard 'Josephine' was.

(Oh my God, I hate my voice. I CANNOT BELIEVE I REALLY SOUND LIKE THAT. WHY DID I NOT REPLAY IT BEFORE POSTING?)



EDIT: Expansion on the Life on Mars/Silent Hill crossover idea mentioned (made ten times better by the fact that you do not have to listen to my voice!):

- The end of the second episode of Series One, with the sewers and the board-with-a-nail and the radio interference, was pure Silent Hill. Seriously. And there are staticky televisions and they are the same, apart from the fact that one of them is a time-travel cop drama. Erm. Maybe not exactly the same.
- Obviously, Sam and the team venture into Silent Hill for, er... well, I cannot think of any good reason for them to be going after a reported crime in Silent Hill. It's not exactly their patrol area, after all. They just do. Then Sam starts going insane (even more insane than usual, I mean) and begins to forget about the future. THERE IS SOMEHOW SOME SORT OF A PLOT POSSIBLY. Chris probably dies at some point. I am sorry, Chris; I like you, but you seem like the sort of person who would die in Silent Hill. Sam angsts about not being able to tell what is real and about his relationship with Gene and also because Silent Hill is generally a place of angst. The end! Awesome crossover!
- It is, admittedly, not the most detailed plan ever made.
