legend of the seeker picspam- part 2
PART TWO of Baneling
Slimy Irritating Dude: I need a horse.
Cara: *prays * Save me from dealing with idiot mundanes.
SID: I have to bury my brother.
C: We need the horses to get provisions. You can bury him outside with the others.
SID: I’m not burying my brother alongside the Daharans who killed him. He should be laid to rest beside our mother and father.
C: Do it quickly.
COMPASSION BY OSMOSIS! Kahlan’s healing love and empathy transmitted through a single gaze!
C: I’m so sorry for your loss.
*brain melts* OMG, she's EXTRA STUNNINGLY GORGEOUS from that angle!
Also. ROFL. :D I love that Cara was taking notes earlier and then trots it out in this attempt at emulating her style…priceless!
SID: Oookay, then? No ability to empathize, difficulty expressing emotions…are you a sociopath, by any chance?
---
MOM AND DAD ARE NOT AMUSED. 'What were you thinking?! You better have a good reason for this!'
C: A man came to the stables asking for a horse so he could take his brother to be buried.
K: We didn't raise you to go around giving horses to strangers!
C: The Confessor told me I had to show more compassion.
Clearly Cara is a daddy’s girl. She knows which parent will go easy on her! Wow, for a girl who grew up without a family, she sure knows how to deflect really well! I love the way she stares at Kahlan, realizes which the way the wind is blowing and decides to appeal to Richard instead, lol.
K: Are you saying this is my fault?
C: Yes.
AHAHA! *dies laughing*
Richard senses a catfight in the making. Dude, you do not want to get caught between the tussle of the alpha females...
K: I won't forget this. You're never borrowing my stuff again. Hope you enjoy the rat's nest on your head when I don't let you use my brush tomorrow morning.
C: It is a little known fact that the Mord'Sith are creative with revenge. See how you like it when you wake up and I've cut all your hair off.
R: *hastily interjects* Hold it, I like the way you both look! I can't travel with a pathetic-lookingharem, it'd destroy my rep!
*well-timed scream*
Heh, Cara intrudes between Richard and Kahlen. *smirks* Much subtler than an elbow to the gut, eh?
---
R: I need you to find the man who stole the Abbot’s locket.
C: *iz thrilled at a real mission at last* He can’t have gotten far.
R: Please don't hurt me for this, but- don't rough him up, 'mmkay? Bring him back alive.
C: Hmm. Alive doesn't preclude the possibility of a few accidents befalling him along the way. *smirks*
R: That went better than I expected. Why was I so terrified at telling Cara not to beat people up?
---
Cockblocker!Cara: Sorry to interrupt. I know you’re mourning the loss of your brother.
SID: We all grieve in our own way.
C: *not buying it* You make me look stupid in front of Kahlan. Be grateful I haven't stuffed your corpse in the same coffin as your 'brother'.
The ladies slink away. By the by, does the sight of a Mord’Sith not inspire ANY dread or terror? In ep 3, children run screaming at the sight of her and men aim weapons at her but nobody here bats an eyelash?
C: Where’s the treasure?
SID: I’m not afraid of you. Do you know what horrible things they did to me at [fantasy location]?
C: *waves agiel suggestively* Intimately.
His teeth get bared more with each detail of torture. [Looks like a horse, actually]
But lookit him, the guy hardly looks like he’s been through hell. Why didn’t anyone mess up his face? I’d like to see him attract chicks with gruesome scars or missing an ear or two. And I bet if they threatened his pretty boy appeal, he’d’ve broken in a second.
SID: Torture me all you want. You’ll be wasting your time.
C: I’ll do things to you those women can’t even imagine. Many know of a Mord’Sith’s ability to bring pain, but few know that we are equally skilled at bringing pleasure.
Cara: But first, you need to tell me-
SID: In a cave, three leagues outside town, by the fork in the river.
C: Take me to it. Now.
How sexy is it that she can fling a fully grown male around like that? Without even breaking a sweat! And I thought her lifting Kahlan was impressive. :D
---
R: *lost in gloomy thoughts*
C: Richard!
Is it just me or does she sound way Aussie there?
Ah, the traditional Mord’Sith Power Walk with Captive in Tow. Mmm, just when you think she can’t get any hotter.
*pictures Cara leading Kahlan*
*brain combusts at the hotness*
R: *entranced by the shiny*
C: This is what you’re looking for.
I snickered at how Cara swung it away from him til she made her grand pronouncement and then she finally let him play with it. Lol. Like, ‘First, you will acknowledge my role in bringing this to you, damn it!’
SID: I’m not going anywhere with you.
R: *shrugs* Take him to Kahlan. Have her confess him.
C: *looks pleased*
Z: *iz a party pooper* No. We don’t know how the Confessor’s touch will affect the rune’s magic.
Cara and Richard: Shit!
Is she POUTING? Damn the crappy cap quality, but looks like it! Aww, poor woobies, they like Christmas has been canceled!
SID: I guess I’m not going anywhere. And this hand? Goes where I go.
C: Not if I cut it off.
SID: When do we leave?
See! I told you, threaten to chop bits off and he’ll co-operate! So much for not breaking on the funtime wheel of drowning. *snorts*
C: *yanks on rope*
HEE! She gets such a kick out of doing that. ^_^ I love a woman in control.
SID: *lives up to his nickname* You know, this would be a good place to live up to your bargain.
*refuses to justify his stupidity with a response*
SID: Hey! HEY! HEEEEYYYY!
Bwahahah...
---
*Cara materializes out of nowhere*
R: But that hallway was just empty! How-?
C: Our thief won’t be going anywhere without us.
R: You brought him back without a scratch, how’d you manage that?
C: *flirtatiously* I have other methods.
R: *looks intrigued* What kind of methods?
RICHARD! You’re a MARRIED MAN! Or…as good as, anyway! See, this is how you get the STD!Rash of DOOM.
Richard's brain: SYSTEM ERROR...REBOOTING...
Yes, best we halt that speculation right there. Lol. Kahlan would be so disappointed in you. Tsk, tsk.
R: Well, however you did it, it’s good work.
C: Did you expect anything less?
R: I’m just glad to have you on our side.
C: Maybe you can tell Zedd and Kahlan they can stop sleeping with weapons under their pillows.
I’m so torn, you guys! I hate both these characters so much, I’m not sure whether to side with Psycho!chick or the Slimy Irritating Dude. But since she dies later on, I guess I’ll just enjoy him getting his comeuppance, heh.
It’s hilarious that upon hearing cries of agony, Richard immediately races off to the rescue- while Cara is unmoved. Lol.
CSI: D'Hara! [Or wherever the hell they are, I suck at geography]
He just needs some sunnies to slip on and off dramatically. Then again, he can just whip out his sword for emphasis, I guess, complete with its own ringing steel sound effect. Take that, Horatio’s sunglasses!
C: He’s dead.
R: He was the key to the Stone of Tears.
*clicks tongue reprovingly* Oh, Richard, what a scolding Kahlan would have for you at not displaying the appropriate sorrow and compassion for this man’s death! How dare you speak of him as though his only worth lay in the rune on his hand? [Even though it’s true] No man is an island, yo, every man’s diminishes you! Act like it!
Still, I admire this new Richard. No wibbling over how ordering the guy to be taken hostage and locked up make you responsible for his death. None of the guilty self-flagellation at not preventing his death. Just a grim observation on what his death will cost the mission. I approve!
SID: Why am I naked? And surrounded by moaning, oiled bodies? More importantly, why are there no fawning women offering me sexual favors around? OH GOD, I *AM* IN HELL!
Hey, so Cara can bring anyone back from the dead? Well, that lowers the sense of jeopardy for the main cast, yay! I honestly don’t care at all, I know how some shows go on about how killing off a regular means that nobody is safe and it makes the audience tense and go ‘oh, anyone could be next’- why the frak is that a good thing? I like settling in to watch and knowing none of them are at risk.
SID: I thought I was dead.
C: I brought you back. Now your soul is MINE.
SID: *iz confuzzled* But- you don’t like me. You didn’t even perform those obscene sex acts on me. Oh, wait, is that why you brought me back? Is it?!
C: I can make you dead again.
K: *iz speechless in the face of Cara’s awesome*
SID: I saw Darken Rahl.
[Guys, I don’t know how the frak to spell his name. For all I know, it’s Dark N’Rahl or something weird like that]
C: *iz perturbed*
R: *in CSI mode* Who stabbed you?
*gigglesnort* Yes, that would be more important than drilling him for tactical info on the villain threatening world domination?
---
C: The walls are strong. The banelings can’t get to us, they can’t kill and they’ll die again.
R: He’ll just send his men to find more victims and they’ll grow stronger out there while we grow weaker in here.
Oh, Richard! *pets* How mature and wise you have grown in a season! I approve!
C: They won’t stop until they get in.
R: Well, if they want in, we’ll let them come.
Z: What about Kahlan and all the others?
Oh, Zedd. Acting like she needs to be protected like a fragile porcelain doll, really?
R: We’ll get them out the back way.
Z: This is a prison, there is no back way.
Me: Zedd! Are you a witch or aren’t you?! Dude, are you senile or what? There wasn’t a front way til you blasted the gate in!
R: [I can] make one.
It sounds like he says ‘I can’ but obviously it’s ‘then’, right?
---
SID: It’s a long road to Pomorrah [?]. Could get a little lonely.
C: You’re right. It is…a long road…to Pomorrah.
I love that feral look in her eye as she gets off on hurting people! Hee!
*snorts* Phallic image, anyone?
C: And if you want to make it there in one piece, you won’t try my patience.
SID: The Seeker said you needed me alive.
C: Yes. But he didn’t say you had to be comfortable.

Yes having a job and sometimes the same job for years and years and years is a good thing but for actors, sometimes it's not about the JOB so much as the challenge to play some one else. When an actor is locked into a 22 eps season show, it makes it harder to play other characters from time to time. Most movies probably take at least 3 to 6 months (sometimes longer) to shoot and if you're locked into a 22 eps season show you have if your a lead, probably about 3 months to film a movie, if your contract allows for it. You see where I'm going? ;)
I don't know...I kinda like that he's doing a lot of family/kids movies. He was really good in The Game Plan and Race to Witch Mountain.
no subject
Huh. I hadn't ever thought of that possibility- WHY didn't anyone think of that possibility?! What an epic idea that'd've been, Vala and Cam in their own series. *pouts* It'd be so much more fun than the rubbish that is SGU. *gags*
Don't get me wrong, I love Vala. Cam (to me) was pretty much John Crichton in a different show. So don't hate me.
Lol, I wouldn't hate you for that! Even if I disagreed, which I don't, because yes, Cam was John Crichton Mark II, but I didn't care because I thought he was funny and such a wonderful character to have around, that it was great having him resurrected on SG-1.
Yes, I see your point. I guess since I'm not an actor, I don't really understand the drive and ambition and...I guess hunger to get the juicy roles and extend their skills and get out of their comfort zone to try new and exciting things. I'm practical- like, where is the money coming from? HOLD ONTO IT FOR DEAR LIFE.
I was so upset with Rob Lowe for leaving WW to look for 'challenges' and then his career ended up going down the drain for a few years til Brothers and Sisters came along. So good for him for wanting an adventure, but at the same time, damn him for screwing over my show!
He was really good in The Game Plan and Race to Witch Mountain.
I love those two movies, although I was so irritated at the way they portrayed Kyra Sedgwick's character on TGP. *frowns* Why is it necessary for them to make a mockery of her? I don't know. But I think he really missed the mark with the Tooth Fairy. Thank goodness he's going back to action now...
no subject
Because that would be way too logical.
As for Cam - Ben is a good actor but he simply, imho, doesn't have the range that a lot of other actors have.
I'm sure there are actors who are all about "where's the next pay check coming from", but those, imho, are the ones who aren't really in it for the "craft/art" of it. They just want the fame/glory. They bore me to tears. It's actors like Claudia and Amanda and Joanne Kelly (Myka on WH13) who are in it to expand their talent and range. That I like in actors.
Eh, I gave up Brothers & Sisters ages ago.
Aw, come on The Tooth Fairy looks really cute and dude, it's got Ashley Judd. I like her. ;)
