idk_ofc, "because Mary Sue is a four-letter word". Reclaim your right to write an original female character, and challenge your fear of the Mary Sue stigma! Also, it's the last day to sign up for narniaexchange so HOP TO.
Gratuitous GIF is gratuitous:
From multifandom GIF post here. Only the Skins and Anna&Will are relevant to my interests, but it's also got Gossip Girl and some Emma Watson graphics, if those are relevant to yours.
Speaking of GIFs, my paid account will expire in exactly one month, which means I will lose my beloved Merlin mood theme. AUGH. I better start using them more gratuitously. Oh many moods of Merlin, it seems like only yesterday when we first met, but now our separation looms on the horizon.
Uther: Don't worry, Morgana. I've promised your father that your LJ will always be paid for.
Arthur: ...Father never pays for my LJ.
Actually. You don't really need a paid account to use the mood GIFs anyway. And you can use two completely different mood themes and make them interact.
Arthur: SHIT.
Caspian: Arthur's fucked.
Peter: Totally.
Laaaaadies: Chill, we got this.
So, whatever.
Uh. Dreamwidth gave me 2 more invite codes, so if any of ya'll want one, just comment up.
ETA, for meme-ish reasons: If there is one person or more on your friends list who makes your world a better place just because they exist and who you would not have met (in real life or not) without the internet, then post this same sentence in your journal.

Wherein Uther wants to watch CNN (Camelot News Network?) all the time, Gaius wants Discovery Channel & Science Channel...and, everyone else wants...?
no subject
- Arthur pretends to be really into CNN, but his true heart lies with CSPN and the swordfighting tournaments.
- Morgana insists they subscribe to the Sundance Channel and fills up all the OnDemand recording time with sad movies no one else likes.
no subject
("Arthur," Merlin said, poking his head in the door.
"Shh!" Arthur hissed, "I'm watching CNN."
"Oh." Merlin stepped inside and closed the door behind him. Arthur sat in his chair, eyes fixed on a rather gruesome story of bandit raids in Northumbria. "That's awful."
"Of course it is," Arthur replied, his eyes not leaving the screen. "That's why I need to watch it. Father is concerned that the bandits will set their sights on Camelot. I need to be prepared. What did you want again?"
"Oh, well, I just came by to tell you that I managed to get the telly from Gaius and they're airing a tournament.")
Haha, Morgana. What's with her and sad movies?
no subject
"My favorite actor is not Will Ferrel," Arthur says.
"That's beside the point."
For Morgana's 18th birthday, she bullied Uther into paying her and Gwen passage and board for the Cannes Film Festival. For Arthur's 18th birthday, he got OnDemand. Uther indulges his children these things, though he prefers a good mummer's troupe himself.
no subject
Oooh, Uther indulging his children. For some reason that makes me think, "because Arthur has Igraine's smile." Or something like that.
Also, Arthur likes James Bond movies. A lot.
no subject
Fun fact: Uther relates to Vito Corleone.
no subject
....Okay, this sounds very, very dumb, but who's Vito Corleone?
Also, Gaius loves How It's Made.
no subject
VITO CORLEONE, played by Marlon Brando, IS THE MOTHERFUCKING DON. He's from the Godfather movies, and he is THE BOSS. This icon is from that movie. omg watch it and like you'll see where 50% of pop culture gets their references from. Sleeping with the fishes! I hope your child is a masculine child! The Italian courting procession! And the theme musiiiiiic. 75% of mafia boss impersonations are Vito Corleone impersonations or something.
("I'm obviously the Michael Corleone," says Arthur.
"What are you talking about?!" says Morgana. "I'm Michael Corleone!")
...Ahem. Sorry. I get overexcited! XD
no subject
Hahahaha, it's alright. :)
Oh, Arthur and Morgana. Typical bickering. Except I want Uther to interject and say, "I'm Michael Corleone!" XD

but how would they meet? HOW? I DO NOT KNOWWWWW. *tears hair out*
(also, if you ever get back to that OT4 road trip - VIRGINIA, BABY. VIRGINIA AND TENNESSEEEEEE. i love those states so much.
also, the Keys, specifically Key West, which is infamous for it's partying (no really. when we went, we watched the sunset from Key West, which was gorgeous, and then mom bundled us out of there as fast as she could because it was already starting. i didn't want to leave.) and then there's the southernmost part of the States, where Bradley yells AWOOOGA into the ocean.
they drive across the bridges and over the water and Colin gets sunburnt (AGAIN!) even though Angel did her best to lather him up with sunscreen. Bradley finds it amusing that Colin always gets sunburnt, and Colin splashes him and then tackles him under the waves. the saltwater feels good on his burnt back and he floats in the swells until Katie yells at him to get out, they need to get to Key West before the sun sets.
a video:
1. the ten minute process that is Angel trying to make sure Colin has plenty of sunscreen on him and Colin trying to run away and just get in the water. Eventually he succeeds, and Angel waves her bottle of aloe vera at the camera. she picked it up at one of the stalls in Key West when they came through. "He'll need it later!" she says threateningly, and Katie keeps filming as Angel strips off her t-shirt and runs into the water, her feet spraying up sand.
a collection of photos
1. Colin showing off his pruned fingers.
2. all of them on one of the bridges
3. Katie's photo of the 'southernmost tip' sign.
4. Angel's photo of the 'southernmost tip' sign.
5. Bradley's photo of the 'southernmost tip' sign (he took it upside down)
6. Colin's photo of the 'southernmost tip' sign.
7. Bradley trying to sneak up on Colin, who's floating in the swells with his eyes closed.)
*coughs* um, yeah. sorry. but you brought them into my home territory, so... :P I couldn't resist!
no subject
Hahaha, now I have a mental image of Bradley hanging off the sign and screaming, "AWOOOOOGA!" XD
no subject
for you are the wind beneath my wiiIIIIiiiings
katie keeping on filming while angel takes off her shirt and runs into the water <3<3<3
BRADLEY'S PHOTO IS UPSIDE DOWN
Mostly to derail Bradley and Colin's competition to make the dirtiest 'southernmost tip' joke, Angel says, "Isn't it Hawai'i the southernmost state?"
"That is a true fact, Ms. Coulby, and it is also," Katie begins, looking up the internet on her cellphone again (God, Angel is beginning to hate that cellphone), "the only American state that does not have a straight line its state boundary. It borders only water and yet it has interstate highways."
"It is a land of many mysteries," says Bradley.
"Maybe we should go investigate these mysteries," says Colin.
"I don't know, guys," says Angel. "Hawai'i is expensive, and our budget is running low."
"Besides, we can't get there by road," Katie adds. "Defeats the whole purpose of a road trip."
+
While Katie and Colin argue about where they should go next, Angel checks Facebook on Katie's phone despite herself.
There is a message from Santiago.
"What? What is it?" Bradley asks her. "What are you smiling about?"
"Oh, nothing," says Angel.
no subject
"I know where we're going next," Bradley announces, and refuses to tell them as they drive up Florida. The other three scoff when he pulls up to the entrance at DeLeon Springs.
"The sign out front looks like it's from the 50's," Colin points out.
"They have a pancake house (http://www.planetdeland.com/sugarmill/), okay?" Bradley says. "You make your own pancakes on the table, and they supply the batter. Also, for those of who you look at history as something to be interested in, this is supposed to be the original Fountain of Youth."
"How do you even know that?" Katie says in surprise. Bradley preens.
"Oh, I'm not quite as braindead as you may think," he says.
He yells "AWOOOGAAA!" as he jumps into the water with Katie and Angel, and they come up gasping for air.
a video:
1. Katie and Bradley and Angel jumping into the springs. Colin films, having actually read the sign that says the water is perpetually 72 degrees. You can hear him laughing in the background as they come up shrieking.
photos:
1. Bradley trying to make a bunny-shaped pancake on the grill.
2. Angel pouring maple, blueberry and raspberry syrups onto her pancakes and Katie watching in alarm.
3. Colin hanging over the railing and watching the mini waterfall in fascination.
4. Colin and Katie in a canoe, Colin looking supremely dorky in his life jacket.
