There's a bizarre ad campaign at the moment for match.com, featuring 'Cupid and Fate'. I admit, I saw pictures like this and my brain instantly in a more Good Omens direction.

(The first one I saw)

I was wandering around Bath Abbey today with foreverdirt and (among other things, including a memorial plaque with teenage emo poetry) we were reading through the wall plaques to find the ones that most obviously pinged as Carefully Talking Around The Gay. And there were some pretty good examples, but one in particular... man. It was kind of lovely, so I thought I'd copy it out for you.

Sacred to the memory of WCJ Esq., a captain in the British Navy who departed this life Dec. 6th 1837 aged 48. Abounding in the qualities that constitute a Christian and a gentleman he fulfilled the various obligations of a son and a brother less as a duty, than as a labour of love; kind, affectionate and generous, friendship with him was more than a name; it was a tie that he hallowed, a bond he never broke. Possessing the abilities of a seaman in conjunction with the characteristics of an officer, he was equally an honor to his country and an ornament to his profession.

This monument is erected as a tribute to his worth and excellence, and in testimony of the love and affection of his brother (Captain GG of the British Navy.)

*eyes computer*

Um. Okay, so earlier my computer made a strange barking noise. Which I kind of dismissed. And then it beeped some. I dismissed that too. And then it said, in a strange English accent, no word of a lie:

"I usually kill people for money. But you're my friend, so I'll kill you for nothing!"

and then it screamed.





I DO NOT HAVE ANY WINDOWS OPEN THAT EXPLAIN THIS.

*scared*

*cannot stop laughing*

So I just watched 5x05, and there's just this moment that I can't stop watching.

Around 23 minutes into the episode, John and Rodney are with Woolsey in his office, and John makes this movement - when Rodney's standing up and talking - that I cannot interpret in any other way than John checking out Rodney's ass.

*watches again*

I. Just. WTF, Joe?

*giggling helplessly*

Fic: Devil Made Us Do It
Pairing: John/Rodney
Rating: R

Summary:“That’s all from us, folks. We’ll see you here tomorrow night with all the latest sports updates, fresh off the field.” John clicks his fingers and points at the camera, a signature move that unimaginative photographers rarely deviate from. “Don’t you get left behind.”

Notes: This was for challenge 012 at artword, but unfortunately life has eaten the artist I was working with so for the moment this stands alone. Remixing Work of the Devils and Wishful Thinking. Huge thanks to unamaga and torakowalski for excellent beta duties, and to newkidfan for the beautiful inspiration.


( “Oh, come on. Are you insane?” Rodney has given up on the autocue altogether and is just staring at him, red-faced, across their strangely angled desk. )
