Funny Funny

Okay, I promise I'll actually /write/ something in here again instead of posting stuff. It'll have to be after my finals wind up... and my brain thaws out a bit. Until then, here's a fun little video featuring a show I used to watch as a kid: The Young Ones.

It's a little like like in the Brotherhood, isn't it? ;) Well, except for the Thatcher stuff, perhaps.


How to be an "Alternative" Comedian

"Violins" by Yellowcard

**originally by Lagwagon

I am just another fool, and I have to, keep telling myself that
I am just a hypocrit, and I have to, keep calling you one
And I forgot to bite my tongue, as my assumption, was the mother of all mistakes
So I assume the role, open my mouth, and clumsy words escape

So why you, wanna to be there, when you could be here, you are slipping away

I awake with your replacement, a bottle in my grasp, in an unfamiliar place
Because you put me out, the butt of a sick joke, into this ashtray life
As you come and go, and I forgot to service you, and we broke down
And you can't live with my mistakes, but I assume false grace
Open my arms and grasp at something true

How are you, how have you been, girl I miss you, wanna see you again
So why you, wanna to be there, when you could be here, you are slipping away

I bring out the worst in you, and you try to let me know
You bring out the worst in me, anxiety, anxiety
I'm trying to let you go, you say I'm giving you the creeps
So I assume the role, open my claws and grasp for your heart

How are you, how have you been, girl I miss you, wanna see you again
Into you like a mortal stake so vindictive
Your love's slipping away

Violins, into this ashtray life
Violins, the butt of your sick joke
Violins, I'm trying hard to let you go

Comic Silliness

Dammit, I'm way too addicted to this thing. I have a small folder of my favourite Pietro-excerpts from the comics and although there're some that better fit the situation he's found himself in with Rogue, this one just amuses me to no end.

Hee. God help the Brotherhood if XMR_Pietro ever takes up guitar or drums - which I was actually considering, given his interest in music. ;P

SONG: "The Way I Feel" by Rancid

Just seems a little appropriate at the moment, given the situation that Pietro and Rogue are currently in...

The Way I Feel
The Way I Feel
Rancid
"The Way I Feel"

Pick me back up just to throw me back down
apoogies too like when you're up against the wall
compassion heals while duplicity kills
you say I'm different the only thing different is

The way I feel about you
Na na na na na na na na na na

You moved up the ladder at a very rapid speed
we moved methodically
and calmly when you got to the top you see enemies

if I knew back then what I know that
it would all turn out like this
I'd sit back and I'd watch you squirm
cause you say I'm different

the only thing different is
the way I feel about you.....

Song: Teenage Lobotomy" by The Ramones

Teenage Lobotomy
Teenage Lobotomy
The Ramones

Lobotomy, lobotomy, lobotomy, lobotomy!
DDT did a job on me
Now I am a real sickie
Guess I'll have to break the news
That I got no mind to lose
All the girls are in love with me
I'm a teenage lobotomy

Slugs and snails are after me
DDT keeps me happy
Now I guess I'll have to tell 'em
That I got no cerebellum
Gonna get my Ph.D.
I'm a teenage lobotomy

Thoughts on the Speedster...

Yay. More posting.


I've been thinking a lot about this interesting little situation that's cropped up between Pietro and Rogue - probably too much, since I started daydreaming while drawing at work the other day (but it was such a /slow/ day!) - and I'm still not sure how he'll react when he inevitably finds out about The Kiss. For all his predictable qualities I find it funny how /unpredictable/ Pietro can be. I think he's finally starting to break down that wall he's put up - that facade of being a complete ass. Not to say that he isn't an ass, of course. Just not a /complete/ one. But it's easier to write oneself off that way and easier to deal with the consequences that come from it versus those that come from serious, sincere relationships.

After all the fighting - physical, verbal and emotional - I think he's starting to get tired of the posturing - or at the very least, he's finding himself in need of a haven of sorts. To this point, Wanda has been the only one around whom he's felt even marginally comfortable enough to voluntarily show 'softer' sides of himself - signs that he actually thinks (some) things through under that narcissistic, quasi-apathetic exterior. I've also come to the conclusion that the more out of place, unfamiliar or otherwise off his game he feels around someone the more he swears - it's a sort of balance mechanism, a subconscious defense.

So now that he's starting to let himself open up to Rogue - even a tiny bit - that means he's going to feel all the more betrayed when he finds out about that one little kiss. For reasons I'm still discovering (yes, my Pietro-muse feeds me hints from time to time), he's resisted the undeniable urge to screw around since he's hooked up with Rogue. And for a guy who's basically been in relationships /for/ the nookie, that's saying something. So to find out that she kissed this random guy - because to /him/ Nikolai /is/ random (no offense to the char or player :) ) - it'll be like a slap in the face. And I speculate that it will hurt Pietro's pride on some level to think that she 'beat him to it' on the screwing around issue - yes, that's a twisted concept of masculinity he has going on. I still don't know if he'll try to 'level the playing field'. So much of his reaction depends on /how/ he finds out. But in any case, I think he's going to be positively sick for a while after everything is out in the open (well, /however/ much comes out).

[Edit: Now without that weird snippet about the 'Soundtrack of my Life'. Thought I'd taken that out already. *laughs*]

Setting the Mood...

Figure I'll kick this thing off with a bang...


Here's a video that I love and that reminds me a helluva lot of Pietro - and not just because it's Sid Vicious. ;)
[Edit: Okay... Well, I can't figure out how to embed it in this post, but the video is in my Vox library now, sooo... *points that a-way* :) ]
[ETA: I figured it out. Obviously. ;P ]
