Ahem; "Hewlett plays Rodney with the perfect balance of hysteria, arrogance and, yes, pettiness." Hell yeah.
The review also has much praise for the sheer depth we discover about McKay in this episode, including the whole trust thing that made me cry like at eight-year-old watching Bambi. I'm glad it got such a good review because it was a damn good episode and Hewlett's performance was incredible.
Amanda was also excellent and I have much love for that scene.
I have much love for the entire episode. Which will surprise nobody.

Damn muses
16 Feb 2006 08:44 amI have very active muses. And a highly critical internal editor. It's a combination that I know is going to cause me many, many problems.
Opened an old fic yesterday. It is old, like it's McWeir. Well not overly; I was writing Elizabeth really badly. I'm rewriting it now as L/R and... Yeah. Grief. It's going to be yet another friendship fic, meaning I have to rearrange the series yet again. I already need to rewrite Love and War and Snow because of Out of Time? (which is a really crappy title but I still can't think of anything better).
I've been trying to keep the series more or less aligned with the actual season but it's... Gah. Almost AU but not quite.
Rodney-in-my-head wants me to rewrite Under The Skin. My internal editor agrees that it's probably a good idea since it'll be from a single POV. Laura...
Is actually worse. But then again Laura's easy to write because she reacts to Rodney exactly the same way I would. Snark back. And be slightly surreal and confuse him. *sniggers*
So. Hopefully I'll finish Feedback, though I need to decide where it's going. Since it's before Out of Time? certain things need to be set up, but without going too far.
I'm going to shut up now cos no one cares or wants to know.

Maybe tomorrow
12 Feb 2006 06:00 pmHopefully tomorrow the web hosts will process my payment and give me access to my webspace. That'd be nice.
I'm going to go to
I also need to check on the release dates for SGA. Yes indeed. Talking of which, I dl'ed a shed-load of caps from the gloriously crap Boa vs Pytho in which DH is hot liek whoa.
( Seriously. Very. Hot. )
I am going to write to SGA's PTB and demand that his wearing of the black t-shirt is like contract. I have to watch SGA episodes more than once just so I know what they're actually saying cos I get distracted...
Ahem.
Shallow? Moi??
I'm going to go to
a) Game and return the Movie Player thing I got for my PSP since it doesn't work
b) HMV or PC World and get a new USB lead or a memory card reader/writer
c) buy um a DVD. Not telling you which one :P

What a crock!
11 Feb 2006 09:55 pmWell I watched the Sound of Musicals rather than Dancing on Ice, but I turned over for Millionnaire and decided to watch the results.
WTF?
Sean's skate was far, far better.
But Robin Cousins says it all "the Olympian". Kelly will get to the last two because she's got gold medals and she's a National Hero ZOMG!
What. Ever.
No. She's a selfish, self-centred bitch who is pandering to public opinion by constantly bringing up her past achievemtns even though they have nothing to do with ice skating. Which she's crap at.

I have discovered three more people writing Rodney/Laura. The only thing is, after the first ZOMGYAY! moment has passed, I start with the "Oh fuck but that's better than mine" crap.
Not better. *smacks self* Different but not better. That's not saying they aren't good fics cos they are. It's just a difference in style.
Yes I am talking to myself here.
It's not like any of us are canon because we've really not seen that much of Laura. Just a few [very hot] scenes in Critical Mass. And the whole... Duet thing *waves hand vaguely, aware there are people reading this who haven't seen it yet*
I'm going to ignore the want I have to rewrite because I could pull the fics apart for ever and still not be happy with them. It's AU, it doesn't have to meet anyone's expectations.
I'm going to shut up now.
