So yeah... giant geek.
Allo. Someone asked me to update my lj so I'll give you what's up with me. Since it's me talking, you're just going to get some incredibly shallow stuff.


FACT OF THE FIRST: John has rediscovered his love for Jeeves and Wooster. Have been mainlining fic, art, and episodes. Also been reading the books again, even though they send me into traumatic babysitting flashbacks.

Jeeves and Wooster slash when done right has the novel experience of being exactly like the books/show with the sole detail that now you know for certain they're doing it.

Here's links to my favourite fanart I've found (it's done in this 1920s style!):

Safe For Work
Safe For Work
NOT Safe For Work

FACT OF THE SECOND: I bought a bunch of toys, leading now to the x-posting of the entries from my other journal in lieu of further content from me.

There are photos.


--------


We all know the tale of 'If You Give A Mouse A Cookie', don't we? I know that feeling. Because this is what happens when I have too much money:


me: well
see
it all started when Ariel showed me that comic con was going to have an exclusive Aayla Secura
so of course I had to buy myself Kit Fisto
Hina: oh... oh dear
me: and then you know, I realized they needed food
so I got them a tea set
and then I realized they needed somewhere to eat that food
so I got them a dollhouse
Hina: ehehehehe
you are so adorable
me: And then I thought they needed more food, so I got them a whole set of sushi
and then I realized they needed friends
so I bought Mace Windu
and then I realized there were FOUR seats at their table
so I bought Asajj Ventress



--------

Man, I cannot wait until comic con.



Kit is free! FREE AS THE WIND.





Asajj takes her chance to get at an unsuspecting jedi. Her plans are foiled when I grab her waist. Also that her lightsabers hadn't been unpacked yet. Maybe she was going to pull a tentacle? Who knows. She's sulking now.



Mace wants to know what the hell I think I'm doing.



And those are my new toys.

--------

On the same topic of my last post, Alya decided to make a smart comment about the position Mace's hand was in and that I'd never be able to unsee it.

This is what I saw:



Kit: ...
Mace: What?
Kit: Please stop that.


Noise most heard from Kit: *THUNK* as he falls over from his heavy heavy head yet again.

--------













--------

Make me stop buying clone troopers. I just bought four 'super articulated' ones which is what I meant to buy in the first place and uh, didn't realize these guys COULDN'T UNBEND THEIR ARMS no don't cry i love you. I'm torn on these new ones, on whether or not to just make them stunt doubles or what.

Especially since I just finished actually naming my little clones:







Malachi wasn't seen in the previous photos because he's stopped answering when Kit calls them. He spends most of his time on one of our library shelves, nestled among the Terry Pratchett. He is, I do believe, an ARC trooper. At least, I think that's what the skirt means. Either way, he's in charge.



Ravo is slightly taller than the other clones and is thus second-in-command.



The rifle twins. I'm torn on whether I should mark them up or what. Like their donuts chocolate.



Deek is a rebel. He sits at the table and constantly drops his gun. Makes frantic squeaking noises when a passing Jedi scoops him up with a 'so cute!'




disclaimer: text inside to the contrary, I don't really think they're alive.

Really.

Excuse me, I have to set out tiny sushi.


--------


t-that's all, folks.

Oh, except an exchange between me and my brother:

Movie Preview: MUMMIES. TERRACOTA WARRIORS. SWORDS. BRIGHT SHINY LIGHTS.
The Boy: Brendan Fraser and Jet Li in a movie? How can this not be perfect?
Me: Think they'll make out?
The Boy: I hope so.

I have two Jeeves/Wooster recs: Armistice, with a lovely appearance by Peter Whimsey, but that's not the important part. It's sad but right, and I'm glad I got back to it.

Also: [info]waqaychay's exeedingly silly and smutty Jeeves and Wooster in Love.

When the worlds of doll house miniatures and action figures collide, it's always a good time! Love the storm troopers with their donuts!

I'm still not moved in here enough to let loose my action dollies and my dollhouse miniatures collection. My new special Sideshow Bingo Frodo is awaiting to see what accessories I have for him--though he's going to be disappointed that most of them are for the 6" action dollies. One day I'm going to get the Bag End I collected a ton of supplies for made.

I saw a review for those. Apparently they are *nice*.

I'm loving all the re-ment food I bought. My toys will never go hungry again. I also found some awesome tiny molson's

Deek is glad to hear that, I'm sure. When he's done dropping his gun and nearly dying again.

You make me feel so much better about the fact that I'm vacationing with an action figure for the sole purpose of photographing him and also make me want to do an album with my other little toys too!

So much fun. Now I want Star Wars action figures with which I can manipulate and create crafty sayings.

You definitely need to post more often :^D

Star Wars toys are an amazing amount of fun. I look forward to trying out barbie clothes on them.

I love clicking NSFW links while at work. Makes life so much more interesting.

At least they're not surprises. Although that might be even more exciting.

This is true. It probably would be more exciting, but I can really only take so much excitement at once.
