'At least you have a pure soul...'

[marguerite_krux]

It's settled. I'm going to be a super villain who has the power to steal teen metabolisms andspence_reid  is my sidekick. I flirted with the idea of being a hero and a force for good, but this is more true to my character, lol. Just need to think about costumes now! Since we're going to be super fit and have the perfect bodies, my options are endless!

I do like this number by cinegirl2000 .



I always saw Emily as more of a Wonder Woman type, since fotobridget2's fic Super Hero Family brainwashed me, but Elektra works too.

-------------------

Mother and I had another of our now-weekly tennis matches. Til mother goes back to school, anyway. Stupid school. Although, that's kinda like saying 'stupid paycheck', so I shall forgive mother the inconvenience of her working for a living and not being around to entertain me when I wish.

At any rate, I lost again, 6-4. *sighs* There was one crucial shot when we were on 5-4 that could've changed the direction of the game in my favor but I was too tired and a little overconfident and TOTALLY HIT THE NET. Ugh. Why is it in basketball or netball, they're all like, 'Nothing but net, baby' and it's a good thing, but here the net is baaaad. I shall brood over that one shot for the rest of the day now. >:{

But it wasn't all bad news. Even though I lost the match, at least I was engaging in physical exercise and burning calories. Since I can no longer rely on my teen metabolism, that is somewhat important if I don't want to become the human blimp. So it's a win-win situation, really. Or that's what I tell myself to make losing sting less, lol.

Also, mother took pity on me and bought me some water ices, so yay! It's cool when my pitifulness leads her to spoil me. :D Okay, so water ices aren't really healthy and shouldn't be a 'reward' for running around, sweating it out on a court- Katherine, my favorite bubble burster, informed me it's basically frozen sugar- but I have this bizarre affliction where I cannot read or watch something good without eating at the same time. Water ices are yummy, take a while to eat, they don't fill up your stomach and don't feel as naughty as say, chocolate. They're also way less expensive than chocolate, bonus!

But yeah, I have this compulsion to munch or gnaw on SOMETHING when reading or watching, otherwise I can't enjoy whatever it is I'm engaged in. One of the reasons I hate going to restaurants, because for some reason, it's considered rude to ignore the people you're with and read with your food. Stupid social conventions.

Memety meme meme.

01.) Who is your favorite character from #2? [Criminal Minds]
Emily Prentiss. I am extremely obsessive about gorgeous, intelligent, funny, butt-kicking females. I live vicariously, so my standards are high.

02.) Who is your least favorite character from #4? [Kyle XY]
Jessi. If she could just die already, I’d be happy.

She's selfish and psychotic and everyone keeps giving her chances when she doesn’t deserve them. She uses people without any sense of remorse and doesn’t care who she hurts to get what she wants. And she’s manipulative and delusional.

FOR INSTANCE, Amanda puts up with so much from her that the occasional snarky remark is expected but Jessi cries foul at the slightest hint of criticism, all, ‘You enjoy being mean to me’- whine whine whine- then two seconds later, she calls Amanda lame and pathetic and says she doesn’t like her and she ain’t good enough for Kyle. Well.

 And Kyle nearly kills himself saving her a dozen different times but she always goes and acts recklessly and jeopardizes his life, his family and his secrets and when he’s down or sick or hurting, she just cares about how she can be better than him, and how she can beat him at something. GOD. I DON’T CALL THIS A SHIP, PEOPLE. A COMPLETE AND UTTER TRAVESTY, THAT’S WHAT IT IS.

03.) What would a crossover between #1 and #3 include?

TLW + SGA? Would be pure awesomeness. Has anyone ficced this yet?

Uh, let’s see, the logistics of it would be a little awkward- since Atlantis is in another galaxy, it wouldn’t make sense for them to end up on the Plateau, would it? We could say they were gating to Earth by puddlejumper and some sort of solar flare combined with the weird energy thingy that happens now and then in TLW and they end up there. Ta-da! Okay, no, not really very convincing but hell, I don’t do technobabble, ‘k?

Another idea would be to rip off the idea of that tech that sent Daniel and Vala to the Ori galaxy, when they were bound by those bracelets. Maybe there’s a device on Atlantis and something that resonates with a similar quantum frequency on the Plateau, and when Shep’s super duper Ancient gene activates it, they end up transporting to the Lost World. Somehow. I DON’T KNOW.

I’d love to read a crossover though. It’d be so fun to have Sparky and M/R interacting. Shep and Roxton are both suicidally intent on saving people they care about- it’d be cool if my two ships were out exploring and Elizabeth and Marguerite were kidnapped and the boys were going out of their minds with worry and running off to the rescue.

Meanwhile, Teyla and Veronica could bond over their warrior female-ness, McKay and Challenger could bicker over science and who’s smarter and…Ronon and Ned- could, um…hmm. Gossip about relationships. Beats me. Oh, wait, Ned would interview Ronon and ask all about his adventures. There we go!

04.) Who is your favorite ship from #6? [BSG]

Adama/Roslin.

They have the only mature relationship out of the entire cast. All the younger folk are making themselves miserable, pining away for someone, sleeping with someone and regretting it or wrecking it somehow and ruining other people’s lives in the process.

I love this ship because it developed so organically, because you can trace their path and see how they went from enemies to friends to more. It was never cliché or derivative, it just took on a life of its own out of the chemistry and affection between the actors.

05.) If you were to set one person from #3 and one person from #6 on a blind date, who would they be? [SGA and BSG]

Ha, McKay and Six. Because he loves blondes, and because she seems to gravitate to arrogant genius types.

06.) If you could meet one person from #2 and spend the day with them, who would it be and what would you do?

Uh, hello, PAGET BREWSTER. My new idol. *luffs* She is so funny and adorable and utterly enchanting. Not to mention damn hot. :D

I'd just want to sit and have a coffee and chat with her the entire day. And take heaps of photos so I could post it here and be like, HA, SUCK. BET YOUR LIFE'S NEVER BEEN THIS AWESOME.

07.) If you could change one thing about #3's plotline, what would you change? [SGA]

Ha. I used to shout this all the time, but now all the angst and hurt and trauma has kinda deadened that knee-jerk reaction. I still feel it, but I can't bring myself to be all energetic and GRR about it anymore.

Bring Elizabeth back.

08.) Explain a relationship between two people (not necessarily romantic) from #5 and why you like the relationship between them. [The Mentalist]

I watch the show for Lisbon and Jane. I hate that his last name is a girl's, and that the ship is officially known as Jisbon, but I love them anyway.

I like the tension between the characters, the way they distance themselves from each other- Jane through his charm and his eerie perceptiveness, to keep her off balance and distracted from noticing things about him; Lisbon because she wants to be a professional and because she knows he's damaged and there's a good chance she can't save him. Their most powerful scene, I think, is where he tells her he's going to kill Red John and she tells him she'll try to stop him. His flat affect, utter lack of emotion, and her painful sincerity and refusal to indulge him in this search for vengeance. She's not going to sugarcoat it or pretend to understand, it's flat out wrong and crazy and she's not going to stand by and let him do it.

I do love that no matter how many times he irritates her with his unpredictability and crazy schemes, she'll back him up and trust his word and when he needs her help, she risks her job for him. Although she's still as practical as ever, [paraphrased]'That stand was more of a hypothetical thing', hee!

The two of them get the cutest scenes together and just play off each other so well. LOVE.

09.) If the lead title characters (first names in the credits) from #1 and #5 were both drowning, and you could only save one, who would it be? [TLW and The Mentalist]

I’m not sure about the opening title credits for TLW…if Rachel Blakely’s first, then sorry, Simon Baker, but I’m saving Marguerite over Patrick Jane. There is an abundance of quirky neurotic enigmatic male leads with some sort of gimmick, not that this lessens my affection for you, but you do see how I can sacrifice you.

If Challenger’s first, then I’d rather save Patrick. *shrugs* Ships come first, so Jisbon dictates Challenger gets the boot.

10.) If you could change the title characters' order in the credits for #4, what order would you choose? [Kyle XY]

Well, I’d choose one that eliminates Jaimie Alexander. Did I mention how much I HATE JESSI?

11.) If you were able to add a new character, any kind of character you wanted, to the storyline of #1, what would the character be like, and what would their role be? [TLW]

I liked Finn, and she didn’t get a long enough run on the show. Bring her back!

If we’re thinking all new original character, though, my vote is for another chick, because the women are outnumbered [except in season 3, with the mysterious disappearances of main characters, which I just read was due to stupid tax laws in relation to the number of non-Australians allowed on a set]

I want a woman that'd be on Marguerite's side because they all gang up on her and it's really nasty, because she's risked her life for theirs and they still go on about how she has no heart and doesn't care, blah blah blah. So, a nice pleasant new female character that can be her friend. Open and lovable and sweetness and light, no ulterior motives or scheming, because Marguerite's monopolizing the market on dark and mysterious and brooding and hidden secrets and pasts. I don't want the new chick competing there.

I'm thinking a Kaylee/Inara kind of dynamic. I've only seen a few eps of Firefly, but I love how the women interacted, with Kaylee all innocent and fascinated by Inara's scandalousness and listening to all her stories, and Inara being almost maternal and doing Kaylee's hair and everything. So cute!

12.) What happens in your favorite episode of show #2? [Criminal Minds]

Minimal Loss, which I picspammed and led to the epiphany that I am hopelessly in love with Emily, and with Em/Hotch. This ep hit me over the head with a dozen anvils to get me to realize how incredibly obsessed I should be with this show and these characters. Only took three seasons to realize that, lol.

Anyway, the basic plot is that Emily and Reid are held hostage in a compound controlled by religious extremists. Emily gets beat up A LOT. Hotch angsts. She is strong and doesn’t break down and is frakking awesome. *squishes*

13.) If you could kill off one of the characters in #6, who would it be and how would you do it? [BSG]

Ask me who I’d want to kill off in #4. ASK ME.

*pouts* Fine, don’t.

Um, in BSG, it’s more a question of who WOULDN’T I kill. Baltar pisses me off unbelievably. I’d like Roslin to airlock him, pretty please. Of course, what with her hallucinations/subconscious interference in Revelations, I wouldn’t bet on getting that wish fulfilled. Grr.

But I’d also airlock Lee!mo and Starbuck if I had the chance. And OMFG, TORY. NEEDS. TO. DIE. I hate her so much for betraying Roslin. Hmm, I almost want to change my vote…her betrayal was worse, I think.

14.) If you got the chance to visit the set for either show #4 or show #5, which would you choose?

The Mentalist. I worship adults rather than kids my own age. Since I'm young myself, I don't see that much to get obsessed over, you know? So while I enjoy Kyle XY, I want to be at the adult table, 'k?

15.) If you could date anyone from any of these shows, which show and which person would it be?

See, this is hard. I live vicariously through my characters, because they're everything I'm not; capable, independent, beautiful, intelligent, powerful. I wouldn't be able to see myself with any of the characters because I wouldn't be good enough for them.  And also, it'd feel like a betrayal of my ship! If I still have to pick, I'd go with...either Shep from SGA or Roxton from TLW.

BUT I FEEL GUILTY BECAUSE OF ELIZABETH AND MARGUERITE, ZOMG. I'd be one of those chicks I HATE for getting with the guys in their respective shows. *frowns* I think I'll pick Shep, overall. I mean, I feel equally bad about betraying Elizabeth, but since M/R have the whole destiny thing going for them, I don't want to mess with fate and all that.
