reading now and reading then
May. 6th, 2003 09:55 amI think I'm starting to like Ginny/Male!Blaise. Or maybe it was just this fic by Davesmom. I'm also really into Caged by Isa, which reminds me of those darker post-colonization stories I used to love in XF. Other stories I'm reading currently: Dark Directed by Fearthainn and An Ideal Death Eater by Sing to Angels. And still reading AngieJ's Trouble in Paradise, which Jade and I are really into but didn't get a chance to finish during her final week here.
I miss Jade tirribly, but she has Disneyland to console her while I have rain, work, and a bitey puppy. SIGH.
Literary Crushes? Resist, I cannot. It has helped me while away the ... minutes. <g>
Many of these have been mentioned already, but that's not too surprising. It's probably also not surprising to note that our tastes are so similar ... which is why we've met up again in HP, right? ; )
Colin, "The Secret Garden" -- Yeah, yeah, Dickon could do all sorts of things and was infinitely useful, but give me bad-tempered, spoiled rich boy Colin any day.
Draco Malfoy, "Harry Potter" -- I love him. I can't help it. He's cruel, he's snotty, he's rich, and he's spoiled -- but he's really just begging to be loved!
Gilbert, "Anne of Green Gables" -- Gil! He makes me goo. From the first moment he pulls on my--er, Anne's--pigtails, I'm a goner. I think I like best how he spends the rest of the books trying to make it up to her. Until they get married and make 8 kids, I mean.
Heathcliff, "Wuthering Heights" -- Dark, dark, dark "hero," but I don't care, I love him because of his total psychoticness over Cathy. Hey, faithfulness and perseverance should be rewarded!
Jonathan Harker, "Dracula" -- I can't explain this one, but Jonathan is just hawt. He's smart, he's a good man, he writes in a journal, his wife becomes enthralled with a vampire ... you want to make it up to him.
Michael Moscovitz, "The Princess Diaries" -- Forget the movie. The movie was a travesty when compared to the books. Oh Michael, how I wish thee were mine. He's only the sexiest high school boy ever.
Mr. Knightley, "Emma" -- D00d. Jeremy Northam, the only man who can make me feel like toejam on a creature that slimed out from beneath a rock with three words ("Badly done, Emma") and yet make me still want to please him in every way. Mr. Knightley, I am unredeemably wicked but love me anyway!
Peter Hatcher, "Superfudge" -- Oh, how can you not love poor put-upon Peter. Anyone who has to put up with an annoying little brother like Fudge needs to be petted.
Tom Sawyer, "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" -- Oh come on. The original incorrigible bad boy!
