迷上了觅觅♥
Three things:
A. HOLY FUCK ZHOU MI. This kid-- this man-- Mimi, what the actual fuck, you are kind of blowing my mind in all ways right now. (Like all good celebs, of course, following in T-Hard's amazing example.) This is Mimi being hot as fuck in black with legs that go on for miles and rockin' it like a pro for his Nanjing SS3 solo. I always respected his voice and loved his personality, but who knew the boy could dance like this? 爱你爱你，周觅!♥ Keep on blowing us away.
SO EXCITED TO SEE WHAT HE AND HENRY WILL DO FOR SS3 SINGAPORE.
And translation of the song he did courtesy of![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
evaporate here.
B. I have >4000 words of Arthur/Eames AU fic and I have no idea where it's going or for how much longer or how they will even end up together but, um. I'm writing! It is terribly pointless so far... Here is a snippet:
NB: Yes I will totally fix all the caps when I post for real (god knows when that'll be!). I am just being lazy and stream-of-conscious right now because apparently that's the only way I can write without getting stuck in my own head, it seems.
C. Anyone who's not yet seen Tom's amazing Arena Homme interview should go do so now, because he is not just about horrible MySpace photos (with palms) and being hot in a suit (or plaid) and telling stories about adopting "kats", but seriously has some fucking depth as a person and actor. And it's gorgeous. MY BIAS IS SUBTLE, YOU GUYS.

evaporate here.B. I have >4000 words of Arthur/Eames AU fic and I have no idea where it's going or for how much longer or how they will even end up together but, um. I'm writing! It is terribly pointless so far... Here is a snippet:
ariadne walks in while arthur's in the middle of his-- whatever. state of complete and utter chaos as created by eames. this is fairly normal, he thinks, but she takes one look at arthur and says, "god, arthur, you're not going to get fired for breathing, you know." he must look worse than usual.
"thanks," he says and ariadne sits down beside him.
"well, i've sent the proofs on to christine and gerald. the charity dinner's set for april 3rd. and, oh, mal called. she wants to have dinner with eames."
arthur looks up from putting the charity dinner into the calendar. "why didn't she call me?"
ariadne grins and elbows him. "why do you think, arthur? she knows you're against them spending time together."
"she's married."
"yes, to dom. they're hardly being inappropriate--" ariadne sighs and cuts herself off, knowing arthur will never change his mind about it. there's just something about mallorie cobb that sets him on edge whenever she spends time with eames. he likes her as a person - she's lovely, truly - but he discourages eames from spending any time with her in a non-professional capacity. publicity reasons, he always argues, knowing christine will back him up. tabloids are vultures for celebrity gossip. they will make mountains out of molehills whenever they get the chance, so it makes sense to arthur to just not give them the chance.
arthur's mouth flattens into a thin line. "she wants to have dinner with him," he repeats. ariadne nods. "tonight?"
"yeah. she says she left a voicemail on eames's phone but she wanted to clear it with-- well, me, since she knows you would never."
eames adores mal. he adored her before he knew she was married to his agent, when she was just another actress with a résumé of classy French films. they bonded over being european darlings of hollywood or some such nonsense like that, arthur supposes. he doesn't really know or care how they met; he just knows he doesn't approve of the way mal touches eames or looks at him under her long lush lashes. it might be completely innocent, maybe it's just because she's french, but it's entirely inappropriate if eames doesn't want to be caught up in the scandal of an affair. mal is huge, well-known, reknowned, respected; her marriage to cobb is equally publicized, repeated as a hollywood love story. they met in paris, they fell in love, the whole works. even a hint of extramarital impropriety with eames would backlash entirely on eames. arthur might have a stroke if that ever happened, or at least land himself in the hospital with the ulcer he's slowly been cultivating over the years. fuck.
eames knows, for a given defintion of "know", that arthur doesn't entirely approve of his friendship with mal. well, not even that, they can be friends all they want - appropriately and without weighty looks and intimate body language and definitely not in public where paparazzi can catch them-- eames knows this, more or less, though perhaps not the breadth to which arthur and christine stress and fret and bitch about it, but he does his best not to aggravate them without due. but eames is still eames, very much his own man, and he refuses to let other people dictate his life. he makes his own decisions about who deserves the honor of his friendship, or respect, or trust. he would never let arthur forbid him to see mal, and so arthur has never tried. (he has grumbled and he has glared, but he feels like that is well within his right and duty.)
eames is going to fucking say yes to dinner. arthur can feel it in his bones, a pattern of behavior that has become standard operating procedure. eames has been busy filming for the past two months, devoid of his closer friends. to say no to fischer's party is one thing; to turn down mal is another thing entirely.
NB: Yes I will totally fix all the caps when I post for real (god knows when that'll be!). I am just being lazy and stream-of-conscious right now because apparently that's the only way I can write without getting stuck in my own head, it seems.

P-TO-THE-S, MEI PLEASE WRITE MOAR ALL THE TIME, YOUR ARTHUR-VOICE IS MY FAVORITE :D
no subject
Everything I write is from Arthur's POV, I don't get it. Right now they are sort of angry at each other and not even friends, HOW DO I MAKE THEM GET TOGETHER ARGH.
no subject
THEY DON'T HAVE TO BE FRIENDS OR ANYTHING, THEY CAN JUST HAVE ANGRY HOT SEX? \o/ Or uhm idk. You could have Mal set them straight?
no subject
AHAHA NO SORRY I AM SO SO TIRED OF THE MEDDLING ALL-KNOWING FEMALE TROPE. :( I will try to have them struggle through on their own, perhaps with friends giving well-meaning but ultimately useless advice? Or their friends are too busy living their own lives! Idk. IDK MAYBE I SHOULD COME UP WITH A PLOT OR SOMETHING.........
no subject
PLOT WOULD BE EXCELLENT, I AM ALSO UP FOR PLOT. And you make a good point re: the meddling all-knowing female trope given how it rarely happens irl. YOU COULD HAVE ARTHUR BECOMING INCREASINGLY BITCHY RE: MAL UNTIL EAMES CONFRONTS HIM ABOUT IT. AND THEN... IDK. GAME OF CAT-AND-MOUSE WHERE EAMES IS SUSPICIOUS!!! AND ARTHUR IS IN DENIAL?
no subject
also my snippet is misleading haha it's really not that much about Mal? Or their fight isn't anyway. May bring in the Mal conflict a bit later, but first they need to start getting along again. The big conflict right now is that Arthur sees their relationship as a purely professional one and Eames is like "dude, it's been two years, why can't we be friends?" and once they clear that hurdle to the point where they might actually have mutual trust, then I will figure out...how to get them together... Omg see, I told you I had no idea what I was writing. ):

IT'S OKAY, I AM SURE THAT YOU WILL MAKE SENSE OF IT SOMEHOW *\o/*

I will try to continue and finish this fic though! Otherwise it'd be a waste of 5k and I'd hate myself forever.

god, Grace fucking Park. And YES, I have this whole thing about how CBS prime time cop shows always try and foist this subtly regressive first-wave feminist framework upon their narratives and the viewers, and it has always really grated on me, to the point where I just couldn't watch NCIS anymore after S4, for example. And they've always been the whitest network of all the big 3, overall.
But this? this show? is just. it's really, really doing a good job with its overall inclusiveness, and its definitive lack of not forcing a rigid gender role system on any of its characters. i'm honestly impressed. To the point where I'm even considering watching it legally! :D
(but. omg. Arthur and Eames snarking at each other and falling in love against their wills and better judgments and being drawn to each other like magnets, and Arthur just wanting so much that it finally doesn't even *matter* that his name might wind up as a TMZ headline, because he just--he just wants Eames' mouth on his right now, and that's it, isn't it? Sighhhhh. I AM NOT YET READY TO GIVE UP THE JOY OF THIS FREEFALL FOR ANYTHING. :(((((((( )

Looooooooove Danny as a dad sfm, love him in general sfm, love his marriage to Steve, love the way Steve looks at him askdghfjds.
Love how badass they all are; love Chin omg *___* and lol he was QB in high school THAT MAKES ME SO HAPPY.
/clutches you back I HAVE TOO MANY FEELINGS ABOUT THIS SHOW. I totally watch it legally on Monday nights and, um, watch it again on hulu. And/or find downloads to rewatch certain amazing scenes over and over again. ♥
(HAHA OH ARTHUR, HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE YOU TO GET TO THAT POINT. I like making him the needier one in the end though, especially since he is being so recalcitrant right now. Rawr.)

/DRAMATICALLY BURSTS FREE OUT OF THE OCEAN... OF BEING OFFLINE
Oh my god no pressure at all of course because one must write when one feels like writing, and write about things they want to write about at that moment, otherwise it's no fun at all and of course it should be fun, but-- ldj;afn;lejkr I had your link in my inbox for a long while so I had this entry even while I couldn't check my friendslists or write comments et cetera et cetera but the point is that I think I have read this like ten times now and it never stops being so delightful and the image of
T-HardEames suavely giving interviews and charming the pants off of reporters, while Arthur frets and gnaws at his tie and makes furious phone calls just around the corner flkeja;fnlekjr;arThank you for linking me to it Mei it really made my week... two weeks... I don't even know how long it has been... it really made life a lot better for me ♥ ♥ ♥ Hello!! How are you, when are you leaving for Singapore?!!!?! ARE YOU EXCITED!!!!! :D :D
no subject
I can no longer make promises about this fic though I do want to try, because ugh wasting 5000 words would make me so sad, considering how much time I've spent not writing this year. It's unnatural. :(
I'm glad this bring you happiness during those two weeks...in the ocean... But now that you are back, you have lots of fic to read! ♥ Go forth and indulge! I know gyzym wrote Hollywood AU! (I'll be over here dreaming about Hawaii.)
Home for Thanksgiving now, leaving for Singapore Jan 4, have to survive finals and packing before that ahaha.
