Fangirlish!

Announcement:

Euripides/Me=OTP!!!!11 I just read through Alcestis, The Medea, The Heracleidae, and Hippolytus, and I think I'm in love. I'm now even more of a classics fangirl than before, if that's possible. He wrote the best female characters in the history of the world.

Also, Medea r0xx0rs. That's simply the only word for it. And she's sympathetic. I already wanted to rip Jason's intestines out and feed them to him, but now...She's just so cool. Plus, she gets to drive a dragon chariot. Wai~!

The Snape voice in my head refuses to say if he knows what poison she used on Jason's bride. I think he does. Note to self: Accept no gifts from Snape.

Also, Smallville:


This is why I read the Medea. Lillian=Medea. Therefore, Lillian=teh kewl. The Lex-angst was just beautiful. Also, only one Lana scene, and no Clunky at all!

Lex=Anti-hero, Clark=Anti-villain. What else do you call someone who goes to his alleged friend's worst enemy behind his back, all so that the friend won't remember a secret? Dunno about you, but that's not *my* hero. Lex is being the hero--he went into the Medical Facility O'Doom for someone he didn't even know. Clark refused to go in for his best friend.

I think Lex is a Christ figure even more than he was. Because, taking the blame for Julian's death on his mom's behalf? Tres Savior.

Lex is my god. Clark is scum. Lionel is still the Devil. They are the only characters worth mentioning in this ep. (Fangirl pandering!) Such is life.


That's all for now, except I've started work on a fantasy novel-type thing. And this week's Tsukiminechallenge rocks my socks.

Well, thing is, I have a character who's really quite well-rounded and I've spent some serious time on. She was my inspiring character. Then I have her sidekick, about whom I know nothing except that he's a very inside-the-box person, while she is very not. I also have at least one god who's secretly making my main character want to go somewhere. I do not know why, or what she will find. In another snippet, there's a rather stuck-up elf who looks down her nose at humans. Her utter opposite is her cousin, a half-elf whose family was killed by his mother's elvish people for some deep-seated cultural reason. I do not know why or how these people will end up with my heroine. And I'm only halfway through the prologue.
