[Poll #1379925]
So what's everyone doing for Easter?
Also, LET US TALK ABOUT SKINS.
-- Anwaaaaaaaaar! Maxxiiiiiiieee! SIIIIIIIIID omg Sid. CASSSIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEE!!!!! Are my favorites, and I cannot choose one among them. Okay, fine fine fine: SID. AND CASSIE. AND SID/CASSIE.
-- It's difficult not to ship canon ships, since everyone sleeps with everyone else, though Sid and Cassie are the socially inept OTP of my heart. Anwar and Maxxie's epic BFFness makes my heart swell and swell and swell. And Cassie&Chris as roommate BFFs are amaaaaaazing, i love it. The whole exchange about Sid and his milk omg!
-- One of my favorite FAVORITE scenes is when Maxxie tells Anwar's dad he's gay, and Anwar's dad is just amazing about it. "I believe my god will one day make me understand. That is faith to me." argh, i TEARED UP. That is one of the best things you can hear from a parent when you expected them to be weighed down by the prejudices of their (AND YOUR OWN) background instead. (OH TV PARENTS.)
-- I am always on the verge of disliking Cassie, but there is something endearing about her. I am always on the verge of madly fangirling Effy, but there is something off-putting about her.
-- OMG WILL DIED AGAIN. WTF. He must be getting really good at it, this dying lark. 'Cept, instead of brigands out to pillage his village, it was a brain tumor. Dude, I was totally ready to write a futurefic about Chris and how life is kind of like an extended hangover. Maybe I will make it about Sid now. SIGH. (STOP DYING, JOE DEMPSIE.)
-- Sid totally improbably found Cassie in New York and are shacking up and being discombobulated together. TOTALLY. omg it must not be otherwiissee
-- Maxxie is the prettiest thing to have strolled across my computer screen since 'Merlin'. I try to say more about his character and keep on getting distracted by his shiny, shiny hair.
-- OSAMA THE MUSICAL. ahahahahaha. Every time I saw the band dressed up as skyscrapers, I lose my shit. (I am FASCINATED by British portrayals of the USA. FASCINATED.)
-- ALSO, when Anwar and Sketch fuck for the first time, and he has to list Hugh Grant's filmography to slow things down??! "I NEVER LAST UNTIL 'ABOUT A BOY'." I LOL'ED FOREVER.
-- ...because I can't unsee the kid from 'About a Boy' when I look at Tony ever.
Augh, ENTERTAINMENT. Awesome mix of poignancy, absurdity, and a shitload of cuddles. Everyone just makes out and cuddles all over the place and <33333.
A smattering of moments where I went, "I guess that's cute, but also REALLY BIZARRE":
---- Sid's mom underreaction to finding Anwar and Sketch fucking on Sid's bed
---- Maxxie's heartfelt confession in front of THE WHOLE CLASS about getting a blowjob from Tony in Russia
---- Anwar's split-second to decision to join Maxxie and his boyfriend in London, with only the clothes on his back
In short, please rec me pre-series3 Skins fic of all shapes and sizes! Or give me Skins prompts and I might maybe drabble for you!

mostlyentirely on the heavy breathing on Jack's part when he lunges at him in the club and the conversation and subsequent freak-out with the girlfriend on the balcony as they watch David walk away, because "the poor dope is in love and doesn't know how to let go," and the thing is that David can make this choice and Jack cannot and oh, I'm gobbling this all up with a spoon, as you can see.Digression: I adore fandom sometimes, okay. Adore, adore, adore. I think the first Jack/David fics started popping up on del.icio.us after the second episode or so and there is absolutely *nothing* in canon that supports this, nothing at all, and people do not CARE. It's in the Bible, it shall be written. Oh fandom, never change.
Thomasina is absolutely intriguing (I loved the scene where she told Silas the codeword for his second family) and also soooo pretty, ahem ahem; and the guards always make me think of Shakespeare or something, like some kind of greek chorus thing I don't get that elevates the whole show from merely overwrought to adorably pretentious. Idk. I'm just hoping it won't get dropped anytime soon. I want to see where this is going.
