Yes, still Battle Royale. I'll be done with it today.

After staying up until 4:30am because I couldn't put the book down, my brain is lightly scrambled. I was dreaming about the book all night, but as I said, not nightmares, just unpleasant dreams. Hmmmm. I have also discovered, to my discomfort, that there is BR fanfic, which freaks me out as much as if there was 1984 fanfic. Just for certain things, fandoms? Not really.

The stories range between horrifying subject matter ("hi, there is a new class." Way to miss the point. And make me want to get a restraining order against you) or sort of puzzling as to why: Normally, I'd think a story involving a favorite character (and yes, yes, I adore Shinji myself. He is one of the very few in the novel who proves both his humanity and his mettle under pressure) getting a crush and hooking up can range from Mary Suish to cute, but here it seems startlingly irrelevant since he ended up on a death trap of an island, and will die horrifyingly still in his teens. And that actually goes for any interpersonal fic involving BR, unless you write a post-BR fic involving the two survivors. Because 95% of the characters in this book die. Horribly, and uselessly, and tragically. And much much too young. So, even though the novel is brilliant about us getting to know all these dozens of characters in such a brief space, a fic about what they did a month before the novel seems a huge malaprop.

Also, apparently, there is Snape/Jesus fic. Yes. The sheer thought of it makes me happy.

I've been doing too much smushing of pairing names, because immediately I was like "Snape/Jesus? Would be... Sneezus!"

I think maybe I need to go off to the corner and be by myself for a while.

Sneezus! Best pairing name EVAH!

I would claim it as my OTP, but I'm pretty sure I'd go to Hell for it.

Aw, snickerdoodles. I'm probably going to Hell at this point anyway.

WOO SNEEZUS = MY OTP!

I am actually confused on the mechanics of sneezus. Because Jesus is you know...non-corporeal. And Snape is in love with Lucius anyway, in a ship that should be abbreviated as Snucius.

Girl, you saw Paheli. You can totally be in love with a ghost or however that works, what with Jesus being all not-exactly-here-on-earth right now (though I do believe He came down for a bit; he heard we were deep-frying Snickers bars and Twinkies and he just had to get in on that).

Um. Um. Um.

I'm sorry, I think I had something to say and just totally forgot it.

I think my brain somehow shirt-circuited when it imagined Shahrukh Khan sporting a halo and eating Twinkies.

I bet this fanfic was written by Ann Rice.

ROTFLOL. But wouldn't Jesus have to be a vampire?

No, Snape is the vampire. She just likes to write about Jesus. Because she's crazy.

Snape/Jesus?

*pictures radically evangelical Potter-hating stepmom's head exploding upon seeing that topic* ;)

Would it be better if it was Snape/Satan? :)

hi,
just saw Aeon Flux and liked it a lot. then i started looking around for people who liked it. it was kinda hard as most people didnt. anyways i stumbled upon ur livejournal and i have to say, that i really like it. hope u wont mind me reading it.
on a side note, i just read that one of ur favorite movies of 2005 is Parineeta. loved it too.not ot mention Star Wars and Batman Begins
man we have so similar tastes in movies that its eerie.
again. its good to meet someone who actually liked Aeon Flux. that just floored cause almost everybody i know hated it.
hope u wont mind me dutting in. bye.
ps. since u liked Karma, have u seen Zinda.

Hi!

Of course I wouldn't mind you reading my lj!

Haven't seen Zinda. Is it any good?

i liked Zinda even though my best friend was a little squimish bout the graphic violence.(and his favorite movie is Matrix!) and it was quite violent but it was the two male protagonists who got me. just fabulous. without giving away the story, it not your daily bollywood fun and games.(lol). very dark and grungy looking.
all in all, worth a look.
