culuyetilleHi *hugs*
I've just come from a fabulous extended weekend plus one class-less Monday. *super happy*![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dead_pen came from Bauru. ^_____^ I've stayed over at her home from Wednesday evening to Saturday morning *squishes*, during which we've talked, talked, talked, drawn (she conviced me to and I made the first ever Nightwing I found acceptable) and watched SW III together. Mostly we annoyed the people sitting next to us with a. squealing at Hayden and Ewan and b. she was explaining details and bits of the storyline to very ignorant me. We also started building her an on-line portfolio and among other things she drew this cuuuute, i-Pod-ish Jin Kazama. *luffs*
I have to say this post started when I watched Dangerous Liaisons on tv, a few weeks ago. Ever since, Keanu Reeves seems to be falling on my lap almost daily - askillthwight could see ;] *huggles* The man is everywhere!! At least all around me. He was in Much Ado About Nothing, on tv the other day.
*chuckles* My, my. I love Keanu, everybody knows I do. I think he's the purrfect man for the roles they have him in - fine examples being the Matrix trilogy, Devil's Advocate, My Own Private Idaho, etc etc. But that I love him doesn't mean I don't know he is.. let's say, not the most expressive young man. (as in, he seems to firmly believe that conveying emotion should be done by means of adding this little wrinkle between his eyebrows and narrowing his eyes).
It appears the opinion is quite popular, enough to warrant a counter-action by the fans who appreciate Keanu's talent. There is even![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
defending_keanu, a LJ comm dedicated to defending Keanu from bashing. They say in the info that they feel offended Keanu is commonly pointed as an example of bad acting *snorts*
Thinking about the matter while scanning the net for pictures, I realised that what I love about Keanu are his hands, his voice and his eyes. Since he poked my aesthetical sense, thought I should make icons!

(25/out/07)EDIT: because I no longer trust LJ with my material, I've moved the twenty-four Keanu Reeves icons to IJ.
Also, recentlyafra_schatz posted some lovely Orli bases. I'd already fallen in love with him all over again during my visit to killthwight (I'm still gushing over that pic, dear!), and that post gave me ideas... and ideas became icons... *grins* Because him and Keanu are my two favourite inexpressive handsome men. I hope you like these!

On a different note, so it is that I've gotten myself into yet another cute little slashy pairing (and a new fandom too).
I've spent part of my day atewan_hayden, sw_slash and similars... so you guess. Yup, Ani/Obi. I blame it partly on dead_pen, because she's the one who got me into SW in the first place. I fear for my sanity... I'm now irretrievably nerd.
I've yet to read anything I'm really in love with, but there is some nice fiction. Just need to find the right archives, I suppose. Ooooh wait, while putting this post together, a very interesting gem came up =]

But I've written this long preamble just so that I could pimp this very un-worksafe piece of artwork.

Date: 2005-06-04 12:22 am (UTC)*sighs* Thank you so much. But you can only say you like my Vig, because you haven’t read any other RPS’s of Caro and me. In these I don’t like my Vig myself - and, of course, that shows. :( But ‘Thanking the Cook’ was pretty okay, I guess. :)
And I’d loooooooooove to see a Vig picspam. – But first things first, ‘kay? EWAN!!!
I really like fandom!Orli. To be true, I haven't watched/read that many interviews so I don't know much about how he really is, but there are some people who can create an amazing character with him. You're one of them. And it really shows that you love him, because you seem to write him with (relative) ease and lots of tenderness.
*glomps you* THANK YOU!!! Hey, don’t flatter me so much! I’d only get vain. But...thank you nevertheless. *beams* Though I wouldn’t say I’m creating an amazing character with my fandom!Orli, yeah...He came pretty easily to me. – And nobody was more surprised than me, really. Because I, too, haven’t watched/read any Orlando interviews up until now. *lol* No kidding. I know so many Orlando fans out there, but somehow I’ve never been interested in Orlando himself. So I didn’t care. :) In LotR I had Vig (and sometimes Sean, too ;), in PotC it was definitely Jack Davenport, in Troy ERIC!!! Well...And then along came lovely little Caro (and later on KoH) and the rest is history, as they say. *g*
But I’ve always liked Orlando a lot. He seemed to be a very nice guy and looked not too bad either. *lol* And like I said, since I started writing with Caro my love and kinda ‘understanding’ for my various Orlando muses has grown. It still does. :) I think the easiest one to write for me is indeed Nightclub!Orlando. I love him to pieces, but Caro’s Eric makes writing very easy, too. He’s so wonderful. Ah...Let’s see...Student!Orlando is a little more difficult, but we get along well so far. :) And Blacksmith!Orlando...Well, let’s say I’m still trying to figure him out.
By 'sharing Ewan-love' I meant, if you like Ewan too ^_____^ LOL
Whee! OF COURSE I DO!! With body and soul! Yay! And since I managed to somehow get the very basic abilities on photobucket...*g* Here’s a little gift for you. Maybe you know the picture already, but in case you don’t:
I appreciate Ewan's acting skills, and my the man is gorgeous.
His eyes. With these eyes he got me from hello, really. And his voice. (And I might add that he has a wonderful ‘German’ voice, too, which is very good when you have to watch the dubbed versions of every movie. :) I don’t know why exactly, but the scene in SW II, when he goes to see Dexter Jettster (the restaurant alien), is always the death of me. I know there are better scenes, but I love him to pieces in that one.
>.< big fat mistake on my part here, I'm so sorry!!! I guess that since tPM has been released, shippers everywhere have had the time to write tons of fanfiction.
:) Don’t be sorry. I was just a little confused. Everything’s fine now. *laughs*
And as for Rushlight...erm...I’ve never spoken to her myself, because I really do suck on reviews, but maybe I should...
Lots of love!
