maybe my gay expectations are too high? (what has korea done?!)

[meitachi]

So, Youtube hates me, otherwise there would be a video in this post of me and sapphira_angel being totally lame and ridiculous. This may come later, if one day my internet connection stops hating me.

In the meantime, we've been watching Merlin. Yes, that Merlin.

We've just finished episode six, and so far we've concluded that Merlin has been having Significant Eye Contact™ with everybody (...except Gwen, because they're just awkward). BUT THIS SHOW NEEDS MORE ARTHUR. HE'S BLOND. HE'S YOUR DESTINY, MERLIN. Go stare at him more, not creepy Edward guy or even Lancelot (who didn't annoy me as much as in usual Pendragon stuff).

SHOW NEEDS MOAR GAY, PLS. :( Seriously. Can they start making out any time now?

Or the Arthur/Merlin eye contact. That would be nice too.

korea has definitely ruined you! D:

... apparently my dad watches merlin. idk what that says about him... :| but he's asian so i don't think that counts? D:

[meiface.livejournal.com]

slkdjfldk Korea. :(

Wow, my parents just don't...watch tv. Except for the news. And maybe occasionally weird Chinese dramas?

I do like Merlin though! It's just not...quite as gay as I expected...I think my standards are skewed...

[birdscore.livejournal.com]

*blinks* O RLY? I didn't think the show could BE any gayer! Without, y'know, diverging from blatant subtext to just blatant homoeroticism. Of course, I say that having finished the first season, so perhaps you are in for LE SURPRISE.

Please be sure to nab the DVD extras from someone. They are priceless. ♥

In other news: YAY! MERLIN! :D I wish I could flail at you some more but I'm on campus and feeling un-flaily. :(

[forochel.livejournal.com]

IT COULD, OF COURSE, TURN INTO TORCHWOOD.

[meiface.livejournal.com]

Oh, maybe I'm just waiting for the blatant homoeroticism then... :( Clearly my standards are skewed. I blame Korea! Japan! I don't even know anymore.

BUT YES. Maybe the last 6 episodes are FULL OF GAY. That would be spectacular. Though I really just want fic, so either way it works out.

I hope you feel flaily letter~ ♥

[kasugai-gummie.livejournal.com]

LOLOL. Any gayer and they DEFINITELY won't bring it to the US. EVER. XD;; Gah, still need to catch up though |D

But the fandom is teaming with good fic, mmm. ♥

[meiface.livejournal.com]

SHE LAUGHS AT YOU.

I AM MOSTLY IN THIS FANDOM FOR THE FIC. WHICH BETTER BE GAYER THAN THE FIRST 6 EPISODES.

[2naonh3-cl2.livejournal.com]

OMG, this show is so awesome. >..< I really can't get over how much I love this show.

Side note: I was laid off, and as a result, I've been spending an inordinate amount of time watching Wondergirls on youtube, memorizing the dance moves to Tell Me and Nobody. How is it that you have made more more of a FOB than I ever thought I could be? ^o~

[meiface.livejournal.com]

akslkjf oh let's fangirl this show! Or the fics! I miss talking to you~

:( the economy is terrible and I'm sorry. Hope you find something soon! But in the meantime - Wonder Girls! I fangirl them hard. Their songs are so catchy! Clearly it is their fault and not mine.

[uminohikari.livejournal.com]

Why does everyone like Arthur :( I THINK HE IS A MEANIEFACE.

Merlin is an adorable woobie.

[chinapaper.livejournal.com]

B/C HE'S HOT

[meiface.livejournal.com]

BUT HE'S BLOND. And also clearly has a good heart despite his meanness! And his meanness is character depth! Sort of. Because then he can have Special non-mean and noble moments! Like when he's being gay with Merlin. Which needs to happen more often.

Merlin is a woobie, but so far I am :( :( :( at how STUPID he is sometimes. Seriously. WHERE IS YOUR FLOW OF LOGIC?

[chinapaper.livejournal.com]

cries another sign pushing me to check out Merlin. D:

also I am going to watch Prince Caspian, one day...

[meiface.livejournal.com]

YOU SHOULD.

YOU SHOULD DO THIS TOO.

ALL SHOULD BE DONE. Don't let 2PM distract you from the joy of blonds.

[emeraldcrystal.livejournal.com]

I WOULD NOT OBJECT TO MORE GAY. but seriously, isn't the show already very gay? XD

[meiface.livejournal.com]

It is! But not as much as I would've thought or been led to believe. Then again, we have 6 more episodes...

[forochel.livejournal.com]

I'd say you're insatiable, Mei, except YOU'RE ONLY AT EPISODE SIX SO JUST 乖乖坐在那里 AND WATCH THE SHOW. Because it is so gay. It outgays Korea, I swear to god, even if there isn't any skinship or whatever.

[meiface.livejournal.com]

WELL THEN EPISODES 7-12 BETTER BE CHOCKFULL OF GAY, BECAUSE SO FAR THEY HAVE ONLY BEEN SORT OF GAY.

Unless you mean gay as in an overall sort of gayness, b/c Merlin's been pretty gay with everyone else, and only somewhat with Arthur. HE'S HAD MORE SIGNIFICANT EYE CONTACT AND MOMENTS OF TRUTH WITH GAIUS. :| :| :|

[arccie.livejournal.com]

This makes me laugh.

Haven't actually caught up with the show yet (it doesn't start airing in Aus for another month or so, though a nice friend d/led and gave it to me recently), but from most of the comments I've seen about for it...it oculdn't actually be more gay without it being porn.

The brother of a friend of mine (who watched both seasons of torchwood) refused to watch more than the 1st episode of Merlin because the series was (actual quote) "too gay".

I shall watch the series soon to know what everyone is babbling about.

[forochel.livejournal.com]

I still find it ridiculously hard to believe that Merlin is gayer than Torchwood. D: But maybe this is because I haven't actually watched a full episode of Torchwood.

[meiface.livejournal.com]

Oh god, no, if someone's set you up for it being THAT gay (minus porn), then you're probably in for a disappointment. Go in with lower expectations, and then you will be blown away by gay. Go in with the expectations I did for, idk, longing stares into each others' eyes and talk about being bound to each other forever and ever--not so much. Well, yet.

Worth to watch just for good fic. :Db

[meritjubet.livejournal.com]

Not enough gay? *surprised* Episode ten is pretty gay!

And yes. The fandom is practically only Merlin/Arthur. So very very gay.

*siiighs* Normally I'm not one for blonds but Arthur. Arthur~! So hot. I succumbed.

[meiface.livejournal.com]

Ah, well, we haven't made it that far yet! I'm expecting tremendous amounts of gay in the later episodes, then. There has certainly been some more in ep 7, which is nice. :D

[black-goose.livejournal.com]

...How can this show be more gay? There is an episode where Merlin is asleep, dreaming of Arthur going "Faster, faster!"

IT IS SO GAY I EVEN HAVE A MERLIN ICON. AND YOU KNOW ME, IT HAS TO BE PRETTY GAY FOR THAT.

[meiface.livejournal.com]

IDK. I loled at their psychic mind-bond, yes, and clearly they are Destined To Be, but there were just...not that many gay vibes in the first couple episodes! Hopefully the second half of the season is more gay.

[sonahgi.livejournal.com]

THE HALF CANNOT HATE THAT WHICH MAKES IT WHOLE. I guess it's more like they're Destined To Be?

[meiface.livejournal.com]

Oh Destined to Be, I can see, for sure. Just the Epic Gay was not quite so Epic. But it's still entertaining (except for everyone's dumb lapses of logic), and Arthur is blond! \o/
