Sick and Twisted, Etc.
Sep. 23rd, 2002 07:52 pmOne. According to Carson Daly, Christina Aguilera's sister is garnering attention for her artwork, including a portrait of Christina in lingerie. Carson claims that some guy who has something to do with a museum (this is what you get when I don't write it down right away) says that it really expresses the relationship between Christina and her sister. Carson agreed in a tone with the proper amount of nasty insinuation.
Two. Every cop or cop-like fandom needs a good undercover BDSM story. I seem to have decided that Klaus and Dorian can live out theirs in my fantasy world.
"You could have this," Dorian says, leaning across the desk. "You could have me at your side every day and in your bed every night. I'd even let you tie me up sometimes." He looks up through his lashes and plays his last card. "If you let me do the same to you."
Three. Will you think less of me if I admit that I think a That 70's Show Red/Kitty sex scene would be really hot?
Four. Jerry and Kramer need to have sex. With each other.
Five. Yet another idea that will send me straight to hell. The Secret Garden. Mary lies on her back on the grass in the Secret Garden, Dickon over her, kissing her. She opens her eyes and looks up to see Colin looking lost and left out.
Six. Watch Pirates of Silicon Valley. Dara has always been right about Bill and Steve. Although, to be honest, I think jailbait Bill is sexier than either the current real or the PoSV fake version. My mother's comment upon seeing Bill's mugshot: "Oh my gosh. He's even cuter than in the movie."
Seven. Is there anything good in Modesto, California? This is one of the things I shall attempt to discover over the next four days.

Everyone is miserable, Dickon goes off to WWI and comes back shell-shocked, Mary marries Basil, Colin is gay, Mary gets pregnant by Dickon, then seduces and marries Colin so that they can pretend the child is his, Dickon and Colin open up a gardening business, and Dickon commits suicide when the kid is killed in WWII.

Date: 2002-09-24 01:44 am (UTC)The reviews are rather idiotic: "it's smutty! lustful! a desecration of a children's book!" I objected to it because it's so badly done, and not really keeping in the spirit of the first book -- it's claiming to be sequel as opposed to a fanfictional interpretatiuon, if that makes any sense, so there's some... obligations the author has, maybe, to. stay more true to the original. or something. I was more appalled by the "Dickon and Colin open a gardening business" than by anything else.

Date: 2002-09-27 10:13 pm (UTC)I agree that there is an obligation to stay in the same tone if it's meant to be a direct sequel.
The thing I see as strangest of the things you've mentioned is Dickon going to war. I don't see that at all. Of course, the gardening business is not only out of character, but also, I think, wrong for the time.
