fannish life

[selenak]

Watched more Firefly, cursed Fox again. Then I watched two Crusade episodes; another show that never made it to a full season. You know, I liked that one, too. Not as much as Firefly, but I liked it. Especially Max, JMS' nod to Avon, and the Gideon-Lochley relationship (count me among the minority who didn't bear any grudges against Elizabeth Lochley for not being Ivanova and found her interesting instead in B5's final season). Why is it that these shows got the axe, and something like Andromeda goes on and on?

Back to one of the best things of being a fan: namely, the corruption of others. andrastewhite, bless her, has written the world's first example of Centauri/Centauri slash, after yours truly broke the barrier for Centauri/Narn affairs. It's sweet, and angsty, and sexy (yes, tentacles can be): A story about Londo and Urza in their youth. What is it about friends destined to kill another that makes them so compelling for pairings?

Meanwhile, theatrical_muse continues to be fun. The Fireflymuses are as fabulous as the other players from the Jossverse, and while the Endless have been quiet for a while, first_born_son (Cain) arrived is written in a perfect Gaimanesque voice. Considering the presence of mr_morden among the muses, londo_mollari is trying to hire Xena and Gabrielle as bodyguards for timov_of_algul, and wonders if crais could manage the transport. The joys of the multiverse.*g*

Musik:Beethoven's 5th

Hail the, fellow lover of the Beethoven symphonies: :-)).
Beethoven's 6th was the first piece of classical music I have fallen in love with. (at the age of 17 or so)

And the Allegretto of the 7th symphony is among the most beautiful and intense pieces of music I know. (how much sadness, how much beauty. The Inevitability and the joy of live)

And I have a wonderful recording by Furthwängler, who is imho the greatest interpreter of Beethoven.

Anyway, I am listening to it right now. And guess what: In the same cd case there was also my long lost U2 Cd "All that you can't leave behind". I wonder how it got there. So your entry made me rediscover it ;-): Thanks ;-)

Mmmmmmmm Gideon/Lochley! Since I got into Crusade before I discovered B5, I had this entire "I-want-to-be-Elizabeth-Lochley!" phase because a) she's cute and sassy b) she runs a space station and c) she has a hot boyfriend!

Then I started watching B5 and was completely blown away by the presence of Ivanova and Delenn. Mrrrr!

I knew it.

Great Maker, Rygel? You have my sympathies. I mean, he's adorable, but he also farts helium. ::shakes head::

I looked at Londo's LJ

And was very amused to see my twisted Lyta/Morden suggestion bearing fruit ;-)
