Drifting somewhere in the vast

The Eagle of the Ninth eats my brain, nothing new here. And I need some RPS fic about Channing Tatum and Jamie Bell BECAUSE THEY ARE BEGGING FOR IT:

Jamie and Channing playing celebrity chicken
Who was the last person to see you naked? - Jamie. - Be honest. - Ok, my wife.

Jamie and Channing on the red carpet
The romance on the screen, was that just for the cameras? - J: Oh, no, we're much further, right back to the hotel, to the suite ...
C: That's my leading lady right there, Jamie. Basically I gotta cuddle him and love him.

(Thanks to 3ngel for linking me to those vids!)

Also, I don't know if it's just me, but I can't help seeing ships in every Sutcliff book I've read so far. First Marcus and Esca, then Flavius and Justin. I'm currently reading the Lantern Bearers and all I could think was "Ah, so it's incest this time." *facepalms* (Although my slash-dar goes off at Aquila/Ambrosius, but I'll have to read more to be sure of that.) In case anyone is wondering: no, the books are really good and worth reading even without shipping, fandom has just ruined me forever.

On the off chance someone's interested: I wrote stuff. Ultraverse part 6 and drabbles (including The Eagle of the Ninth, The Silver Branch, Football RPS, Tatum/Bell RPS and Glee). It's not beta-ed and raw and short (I seem to have lost the will and/or ability to write more than 2 pages for a fic), but it's writing and I'm glad I still managed to put something together.

Besides that, is anyone reading the other books of the Eagle of the Ninth series? I'm currently in the middle of the Silver Branch and it's really good. I like Justin and Flavius, one the sensitive surgeon and the other the Centurion in shining armour. Very adorable. Although I can't help thinking "Kinky!" whenever Cullen is mentioned ...

ETA: Absolutely adorable and squee-worthy fanvid about Esca/Marcus (contains spoilers for the movie).

Because this fandom is still so small and needs more love, even though it is the slashiest thing I have come across since, I don't know, Brokeback Moutain?

Four reasons to love The Eagle of the Ninth (includes spoilers and quotes)

( 1. It's (b)romantic. (Book!verse) )


( 2. It's full of UST and powerplay. (Movie!verse) )


( 3. Even the actors are in love (RPS). )


( 4. Mr. Handsome and Mr. Pretty. (aka: eyecandy) )

Nuff said. :D

Let's just say: my icon is rather appropriate. :D

Football? There is no football. I don't know what you are talking about.

 

58 / 80 pages. 73% done!

... which is ... okay. I think. (I'm still speculating on at least 5 pages more once I have added loads of screencaps and pictures to the text.) But this is not a bachelor post, no worries. I just want to keep track of where I am with my page count.^^
