dangermousieI've been counting hours till 9pm and the Veronica Mars ep. Can't wait to see Logan and Veronica interact and Aaron's trial is going to be terrific. Just to have Logan and Veronica's reactions to it? Gleeeeeee.
In other news, I have totally got behind Ban/Himeko in GetBackers. Evil writers, hitting every ship kink I have! When at the end of that three parter, they fight and he beats her soundly, and then when she is lying unconscious he picks her up and puts her down carefully, and her clothes are torn from the fighting so he takes off his shirt to cover her up and I die. And then he walks off, and he says "You can have my life, for however little it's worth but not yet" because he has to protect her blah blah. And he's killed her brother and she hates him but he did it to protect her and they lived together when they were kids for a bit and he takes her antidote bottle next day "as payment for the shirt" and OMG. Total OTP. Even if they never get together in the show.
Also, I am rather amused by the fact that in final volume of Hot Gimmick, I am so amused/surprised by three things:
1. Ryo collapsing in a fit because Hatsumi and Shinobu gotten together. Glee. Love angst.
2. When Hatsumi tells Ryo that they were broken up and she was sure he slept with what's her name so she slept with her (adopted) brother, the uber-jealous, bossy and immature Ryo's reaction? I don't care, I want you back. *shock* And then he tells her something to the effect of "you've come to find me, so you care for me and not him." Surprisingly mature. That boy, surface appearances aside, is SO emotionally whipped. (And of course Hatsumi didn't really blah blah)
3. Hatsumi is the one who comes into Ryo's bedroom near the end! Talk about shock. And when he is grouchy and is all "so, I bet you've come to tell me you can't marry me and your family is blah blah blah" and she responds "I thought I'd stay the night because we are going to be together anyway, so as your fiancee..." Heeeeee.
And completely unconnected, today's eye-candy/pic spam post is of Kareena Kapoor, one of my favorite Bollywood actresses. While most casual Bolly fans would most likely know her as the shallow, dim Poo from Kabhi Khushi Kabie Gham (a hilarious, delicious, vampy role), she became my favorite by portraying such deiverse and strong characters as a jaded young hooker spending a rainy night with a depressed businessman in Chameli, as a traditional Muslim girl going against her fear-bound community in Dev, a harrowing movie about sectarian violence, as Naaz (a Bangladeshi woman who is smuggled into Pakistan with her family, and falls in love with their smuggler) in Refugee, as an upper-class idealist brightening up the very political Yuva, and above all, as Princess Kaurwaki in Asoka, who is both a warrior and a star-crossed lover, and a supremely confident woman.
So, without much further ado
In Asoka:

Low-class and desperate, in Chameli:
