Red Cap pimping post.

Jan. 30th, 2010 03:48 pm1. A.j. has a picspam of the pilot over here. There are vague spoilers. The pilot can be found here: hxxp://www.megaupload.com/?d=UZ6T5DNS
2. A.j., if I do an Afterlife vidlet to Poe's 'Haunted', will you beta it for me? (not that I'm planning on it yet)
3. Had to drop money on car repairs (stuck valves and a leaking power steering unit done. free-hanging muffler, not done).
4. I now need hot cocoa and the Last Voyage of the Lusitania.also, Kara/Sam on the porn battle

how embarrassing
Jan. 3rd, 2010 01:35 amYoung Douglas Hodge in 'Rumpole and the Barrow Boy' is disturbingly attractive. I did not, however, recognize him until he frowned. At least I know how Kenny Burns must have looked during his years.
Also, there's a bit where he's in a bath, covered in nothing but bubbles.
*/shallow*
eta: Also, his girlfriend is Elizabeth Hurley. *giggles*
eta2: pictorial evidence.

Red Cap. So much glee.
Apr. 7th, 2006 10:41 pmI should've done a playbyplay of Payback, but I kept getting distracted.
Little things jumped out at me. Like, oh, Neve watching Roper and Jo being so very close together. And then Neve and Jo and dressing up--and Neve's comment about them having a great chat and such. Neve isn't jealous of Jo getting Roper. Neve's jealous of Roper getting Jo.
Swear on my grandmother's grave.
I also can't help it when I think Jo and Roper had wallporn after the club (not to mention: Burns has always had a worry that Jo and Roper would compromise each other, professionally. And he's right).
They're bad for each other, professionally.
But they do work so damned well together (Roper follows her around, smart man that he is, to keep her out of trouble).
ALSO. I now want to write Burns going home after the hospital stay and having torrid sex with his wife. Pity we've never met her. And his daughter makes them breakfast in bed, but the eggs burn and the toast is soggy, and they all end up giggly and in the food hall.
Where Neve is drinking coffee to wake up after her one-night stand with Lt. Col. Fox.

Red Cap: best cure for stupid ship fic.
Feb. 11th, 2006 04:07 pmEspecially when one realizes that the filter being used for Bosnia is the Caprica filter, and this is the episode with Kieran, and OMG.
Luckily, Kieran is not Anders. For one thing--*distracted* Bruce in uniform is hot. Disturbingly, so is Forney. FORNEY! I love you! You would take one look at Baltar and laugh hysterically!
I heart Jo so. *pets her blonde sergeant* I'm scared at the idea of Jo, Kara, Sam, Vala, Liz and Teyla ever being in the same room together. I think the universe might simply give up and wave a white flag.
Hrm. I think it will be time for picspam. Sadly, there are no screencaps of Kara's black outfit or Jo's tarty bit from episode one of season one.
Mmm. Breasts.
eta: Harry Frost, you're such a bitch.

I love you like pie. Please come bitch-slap Dee.
And kiss Brucie for me.

Dear Jo,
Thank you for wearing that top. I needed more breasts tonight. Ms. Blonde With Legs Having Fun.

PS. I love how you keep handing Roper your shit. You ARE THE BEST.
Dear BSG,
Please stop stealing characters from Red Cap. You're just not good enough to write them.
No love,

fangirl ramblings: Jo McDonagh
Aug. 12th, 2005 03:08 amIn trying to write something vaguely resembling an essay about why I love Kara Thrace, I'm continually reminded of Jo. Because Jo is Kara's predecessor, the no-nonsense chick who likes guns and kicking people and being physically active. Jo, of course, has a rather stronger sense of law and order (and justice), but she's just as much of a maverick as Kara is (witness Roper's quickly adopting his tactic of following her everywhere to keep her out of trouble), and quite possibly gets into more trouble.
http://www.army.mod.uk/news/year_2004/redcap.htm contains stuff about Red Cap, and a cute picture spread of Jo in fatigues.
Jo is blonde, with hair long enough to pull back into messy ponytails. Given Kara's hair seems to grow in leaps and bounds, she'll soon need to yank it back, or have it in her eyes (er, as someone whose hair gets in her eyes, this is DAMNED ANNOYING, and I wish more people would realize this).
She also has a Tragic Past, and accidentally got her boyfriend killed, for which Roper blames her.
Roper, btw, is a maverick, I'd say he's more Helo than Lee.
Kenny Burns, otoh, is Lee and Adama rolled into one whilst whatsisface is Tigh and Adama.
Forney = Baltar (and Forney totally needs his own mental blonde... because she would mock him a lot, and it would be really damned amusing)
I'm being distracted by archetypes, and I was talking about Jo and Kara, and how they both throw the first punch and don't take shit from anyone. And, just, they're NOT passive. Mmm.
So, yah. Jo is totally Kara's great-great something or other.

First off, A.j.! The dvds are GORGeous.
Let's see if this is at all coherent. Jo McDonagh is a member of SIB, part of the British military stationed in Germany. She's blonde, slim, intelligent, and frequently steps out of bounds to figure things out.
And she isn't always right.
The first we meet Jo, she takes a paratroopers punch to the face, gets back up, and proceeds to try to kick the crap out of him. Despite giving as good as she gets, she ends up on the ground from a wicked blow to the solar plexus, her lip bloodied (and bruises everywhere), while the para hops a fence. Although, I'm pretty sure he'll feel that for a while.
The first time we meet Starbuck, she's betting, mocking the XO, and winning. When he overturns the table, she punches him. And would have done more if not stopped.
In some ways, they're very different. Jo is less of a fighter, and tends to walk herself into trouble (and talk herself out of it). But Kara isn't as manipulative as Jo. She doesn't spin stories on the spur of the moment.
They are similar, though. Both have deaths in their pasts they feel responsible for. Both push themselves too hard because of those deaths.
In short. If I hadn't loved Jo McDonagh, I might've not liked Starbuck...
"You don't just cross the line, you jump up and down on it and kick it to pieces." Sgt. Major Kenny Burns on Jo McDonagh.

So, y'know...
May. 25th, 2004 05:35 pmFive hours of Red Cap last night meant I had a lot of porn on the brain today. And there was this bit where I was discussing why it is that Sam and Jack have more porn in my head than Nate and Dom (Jo and Roper are about in the middle, except when he's being cute.)
And I realized that, Sam and Jack have no canon-porn. So they hop to it in fanon at any time they can.
But, Dom and Nate? They had porn in canon. So they're a little more blase about it... Which led to the following scene. (and another one with Tabitha bitching because she wants breakfast, but the kitchen is... occupied...)
Well, the scene that's under the cut. I'm still talking about irritating fictives.
Do you know how hard it is to have porn in your head all damned day? And I can't actually *write* it. I don't think they'd be all that impressed if they read over my shoulder, "And then she grabbed his penis." Or something like that (that was abrupt. *eyes Jo* Didn't even give the man a chance to wake up fully, did you? Sigh....).
Luckily, on the plot side, I can do strange little notes. Even if they only make sense to me. Although, I'm saddened to say that I may have to actually *have* an Ascended Daniel around, because he really does do the great "Snark at Jack and Sam" lines. And I really can't see Jonas doing them, although, in two years, he might. But that's beside the point.
However, now I'm curious. Where are the queens producing larval goa'uld for the jaffa? Wouldn't that be, like, a HUGE place to bomb?
The Tok'ra? Think long-range, but not quick enough.
And I still hate the Tollan.
*snicker* Sam, on why SG-1's not worried about being held prisoner by rebels: "You haven't separated us, tortured us, tied us up--" "But you did take my cards." "Sir..." "Anyway, Doc Frasier's worse." "Sir!" "Well, she *is*, Carter! Big honkin' needles!" "Just wait until I tell Janet, sir." "...damn." "Indeed, O'Neill." "Oh, don't worry, Colonel, I'll just smile at her a lot." "Thank you SO much, Jonas." "Um, excuse me? I'm holding you prisoner, here? I'm supposed to be watching you, making you worried?" "Yeah, whatever. You got any cards?"
Erm. Anyway.
Oma Desala needs to be destroyed. ...I have a note here with someone telling Jack to stop being a dirty old man. Yeah. THAT'll happen.
Hrm. I need to go make some Teal'c icons...
( Not exactly porn )

Perhaps her life is not what it seems
Feb. 22nd, 2004 01:29 pmA.j. came to visit us over this weekend. It was fab. We watched lots of Grumpy Old Man (Stargate: SG1), and British drama. Red Cap, and some Touching Evil, and I almost had time to show them The Vice. (I also want to show them Mother Love. Because, Diana Rigg? So beautifully psycho).
This is my last week at Northwestern Mutual. Hopefully, I will be given another assignment soon. (good god, It would suck if I wasn't--rent will be paid next weekend, so I need money to live on after that).
Have been very damn good and not bought the next Preacher tpb. Did pick up a cheap Stormwatch tpb, though. Mmm. Ellis.
We sent Aj home with all sorts of goodies: Red Cap (everything we had), Touching Evil s3, both Something for Kate albums (heh. heh. heh.), Portishead (Dummy, and the Live cd), and a few random songs.
But we had fun.
I joined a Red Cap mailing list. It's rather amusing to be on it, because this is like a fandom in its infancy. And until recently, I felt like the only person who'd been in a fandom before. But! Luckily, there is someone who has been around (X-Files, Stargate, Farscape... *snicker* This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship), and we're starting a Round Robin -- We'll have Aj, too! And someone else said, "Hey, that could be fun." And Timey is going to be their waitress. Er... It begins: "Mulder, Roper and Crichton walk into a bar... and sit down at a table with Colonel Jack O'Neill." Heh.
But this list is... vaguely amusing. Someone on it has actually said that Red Cap is not a 'cult' show. I laughed. We have upwards of 50 posts a day! That, my friends, says 'cult' to me. ;)
Hole's "Celebrity Skin" album has been growing on me. I didn't like it at first, because it seemed like Hole meets the Go-Gos. It still is, sort of. But it's closer to Hole meets the Go-Gos, Garbage, and someone really really fucked up in the head. Enter: Courtney Love. *g*
Put everything on my winamp playlist. I have 2040 songs. Colour me disturbed. About 100 of them were downloaded, I think. The rest are from my cds... I am so sad.
Hrm. Should go back to cleaning my room, so it's not a mess. I need shelving, damnit!

Feb. 17th, 2004 06:09 pmMy cat has been happy, I think. She's got us to herself, her food to herself... She isn't puking every other day, either, which is, I hope, a good sign. I think my parents were feeding her too much wet cat food. Now she gets more dry.
Seems to work, I think.
The weekend went by quicker than it should have. I feel like I didn't accomplish anything. I didn't, really.
Had an argument with John Crichton on the way home. He's now sulking because I won't write him porn. Aeryn wandered off to blow things up with Sam a while ago. I think Dom and Cally tagged along.
Am reading the newest Jani Killian book. Marya is mentioned in it. Completely disturbed as this is exactly the sort of way I would have stuck her into that universe... She trains one of the lesser boytoys on guns, and is ex-military... *eyes her fictive* She claims to have no knowledge of this.
I highly recommend Jani Killian, btw. First book is Code of Conduct, author: Kristine Smith. She's fab. May pawn these off on Aj when she's up here.
Watched Red Cap last night. It had a beautiful moment between everyone's favourite SoCo lad and Jo. The dog was barking, "What's up with Pongo?" "Someone put viagra on his dog biscuits." "Me, too." And he leers. Damn, that boy is cute. I say we get a lab built in the basement and install him there. He can... inspect mold, or something.
He was eating chocolate hobnobs. Mmm.
Why is it that American cookies just aren't as good?
Oh well.
In other news, Aj has made me write Stargate fic. *shakes fist* I should make you watch Blake's 7!
Speaking of which, anyone have any ideas for pulling episodes off vhs and onto my computer? If I were doing non-linear editing, the nomenclature would be digitising. But it's been five years, for all I know, it's completely different now. *sigh* Oh, to still be irritating Mark at Media Services at FP... I crashed his computers so often.
Bad, me.
Oh! And I've crashed the data entry program at work! Twice!
It's not my fault! I swear it's not!
...really?
