i think it's time to blow this joint
AAHGRHHGHRG. Alias!

-Wheeee Simon and Sark!! Oh, prettybadboy LOVE. And alcohol. And hotness. Yeeeeeeaaahhh. Sigh.

-Oh MAN, we got timelapse!waiting!Lauren at Vaughn's bedside. Can i get a "GAG! COUGH! DONTCARE!" Or is that just me? Yes, she loves him soverymuch. Blah.

-Hearing Syd repeatedly call Vaughn "Michael" is one of the oddest things ever. It's quite distracting.

-I know Lauren was upset about her husband being stabbed by his ex-girlfriend and all that, but... the bitching, it does not make me like her.

-Hee! Jack's disguise is glasses and an accent. Awww come ON Jack! Not even a mustache? Really, now.

-Dude. DUDEDUDEDUDE!! The chase scene. was. AWESOME. I love car chases like nobody's business, and just... yeah. KICK. ASS. Lauren's little smile was great, like "Hee! I'm in a car chase! Fastfastfast! Whee!" even though, yeah, reckless driving much? But i actually liked her in that scene. Seriously, it all has to do with how much Vaughn is involved. If she's doing something totally unrelated to him, i do like Lauren... unfortunately, the fact that she's his WIFE usually brings Vaughn into it. Egh. But anyway, action!Syd with action!Lauren is what i've been looking forward to all along. Want! More! Also, the way that scene ended reminded me of Firebomb, with Syd hitting the steering wheel as Sloane got away with Sark... hmmmm.

-I liked the new bad guy, Bomani. He seemed pretty badass (a machete!), i wanna see more of him. Yes.

-Heh, when Lauren apologized to Syd and took back wanting her to leave, all i could think was "I had lotsa fun driving that car, i wanna do that again! Let's have more adventures Sydney!" Come on, you know that's what she was thinking. She wants to go in the field, and with Syd around, there's a better chance that she'll "accidentally" get thrown into more exciting situations like that. Poor girl just wants some action. (heh. I could say something about Vaughn not being so enthusiastic in that area anymore... but i won't.)

-AGGGHHHHHHHH. The... the... hospital scene. *sob* NO! NO, IT REALLY HAPPENED!! GODDAMMIT. I figured about halfway through that it would be a dream, cause they were being waaay too adorable, and saying everything we want to hear. Dammit, Alias, you don't DO dream sequences! What the HELL! I am glad it was Vaughn's dream, though. Yeah, you don't love her anymore at ALL. *scoff* I love how he sees Syd- he lurves her, and wants her with him, and yet she's invariably going to hurt him. Again. Some more. That's just COOL. Orrrr... sad. Yeah, i meant sad. *cough*

-Sloane as a double agent? Oh SO many kinds of irony. Mwahaha. That's some nice fucked up shit.

-Marshaaaaaaall!!! I know everyone will say this, a billion times, but the high school picture was utterly, pricelessly hilarious. HEE. HEE HEE HEE. And the blackjack was way cool. Dealer!Weiss! Heee.

-Oh NOOOOO. As soon as Simon found out who Jack was, i was like "oh SHIT, Jack's gonna kill him." Then, when Simon was taunting him ("degenerate displays of sexual theatre"!!!), it was "oh SHIT, Jack's gonna kill him SO MUCH." Dammit, i got teared up when he was dying. NONONONONO!!! I totally called it too, i've been worried that he would die all along. Gah. It was so cool, and Jack is so badass, but... SIIIIIIIIIMON!!! *sob* You were too sexy for this world. I will miss you and your hotness more than you'll ever know.

-Oh GOD, Marshall smacking Syd on the ass was the funniest thing EVER. For Syd's look of "I am going to kill you" and Marshall's look of "oh crap i'm going to die". Hee!

-Aw, the end hospital scene had so much funny! Hee hee. April First. Hee hee. Critical injury teasing. Hee. And beer in a hospital. Oooooh Alias, you and your suspension of disbelief. I thought that maybe, just maybe, after Syd and Weiss left, Lauren would leave and then Syd would go back to the room so she and Vaughn could have a Moment. And it was all going as i planned, until Lauren was still in the room when Syd went back. Dammit. WHYWHYWHY??!??!?? Ooh, Lauren and Vaughn are in love, and Syd is in pain. Do you see? DO YOU SEE??? The point, she has been taken. *stabs self* But man, that left me so pissed off. We didn't get a single REAL S/V scene. What. the. hell. NO payoff. None. Nothing. Nada. She STABBED him, and they don't have a single moment alone together to maybe, oh i dunno, ACKNOWLEDGE that. Instead, they go straight to having wacky fun times in a group of friends. It left me repeatedly yelling "I HATE YOU" at my tv screen. But, maybe that's just me. It's just disappointing, compared to what we had last week.

Oh, and Syd watching Vaughn and Lauren reminded me of Vaughn watching Syd and Will in Cipher (through the glass, after the hypnosis). Funny how i would welcome the Syd/Vaughn/Will triangle now.

Hm. Anyway. Despite the stupid triangle, I think i liked the ep okay, cause it had some moments. Not as great as last week, but not quite as off as the first three. Although, i still couldn't tell you what the plot was (but, well, when can i ever, really?). Next week looks awesome (EEE!! ALLISON!!!!! EEE!! HOCKEY!!!), but, the S/V tension looks rather anvil-icious. Uh oh! Touching! JUST DO IT ALREADY. Then agaaain, when it comes to anvils, i tend to not care so much with S/V. Cause it's... them. Sigh. Touching.

Ya know... i miss Syd/Vaughn. It doesn't really help that i spent last night reading old S/V fic, and looking at pictures, and watching the A Free Agent deleted scene, and generally wallowing in S/V-induced depression. Uhm... yeah. That wasn't the best idea, was it?

Icon: Julia! For all you Cowboy Bebop fans. Are the similarities not slightly eerie?

Heh, i highly doubt the Julia thing is intentional. Just me being silly with crazy fandom connections i alwaysALWAYS make.

And dude, gotta have SW tie-ins. I even typed "The Triangle Strikes Back" and THEN realized that this actually was episode 5 of this season, and Empire is episode 5. Hee.

Dude, I almost cried about Simon!Death, because COME ON, so much slash fic gone....gone...gone...All my hopes for Simon/Vaughn, Simon/Weiss, Simon/Marshell, Simon/Jack, just *bang* they shot my baby down...

*sigh*

And I loved, loved, LOVED the SydStab'o'Sex in the dream sequence, because it was all so awesome and subtexty but not, because Alias can't do subtext to save its life.

Anyway, love your comments, and damn you for putting The Julia/Julia thing in my head...

Heyy, Alias does subtext... it just always ends up text. ;)

Hee! JULIA/JULIA! Yes, damn me. Damn me to hell.

I had lotsa fun driving that car, i wanna do that again! Let's have more adventures Sydney!" Come on, you know that's what she was thinking. She wants to go in the field, and with Syd around, there's a better chance that she'll "accidentally" get thrown into more exciting situations like that. Poor girl just wants some action.

EEE, you *totally* know that's what she was thinking!
After they teased us last week about her father squashing her dreams of being field-rated, I'm just dying to hear more about all of that...

Dammit, i got teared up when he was dying. NONONONONO!!! I totally called it too, i've been worried that he would die all along. Gah. It was so cool, and Jack is so badass, but... SIIIIIIIIIMON!!! *sob* You were too sexy for this world. I will miss you and your hotness more than you'll ever know.

I know, I admit I was a little sad, too. Especially because he was so surprised that he got shot! And Simon, you idiot, you didn't even let Jack help you and give him what he wanted! Jerk! Save your own skin, dammit!

Ya know... i miss Syd/Vaughn. It doesn't really help that i spent last night reading old S/V fic, and looking at pictures, and watching the A Free Agent deleted scene, and generally wallowing in S/V-induced depression. Uhm... yeah. That wasn't the best idea, was it?

Oh no, that's a great idea. I had a similar evening myself.
When you start writing the s/v fic and not just reading it, though, that's when you've reached a whole new level of wallowing :D :D (also highly recommendable) ;)

Dude, TOTALLY. If they give her some more character and backstory, i might like her more!

And Simon, you idiot, you didn't even let Jack help you and give him what he wanted! Jerk! Save your own skin, dammit!

Aw man, but the way he went down was utterly perfect. He wasn't gonna give Jack the satisfaction of getting what he wanted, so he taunted him to the end. THAT'S a bad guy.

Heh, well, i DO write it, that's the thing. Granted, it's all reallyreally short and unfinished and none of it has any direction at all, but i write it. ;)

Mmmmhhhm. I thought that very thing quite a few times. Very distracting. Harumph.

But I generally agree, it wasn't as much fun as last week but better than the first three. Now, I'm not as cool as you, so what is this Cowboy Bebop??

Cowboy Bebop is an anime series about a group of bounty hunters in space. It's cooooool. ;D But dude, you're "not as cool as me"? Trust me, i'm not that cool. ;)

Hey now! ;) Yeah, big nerd here. In all fairness, i only like the COOL anime. Heh.

I usually type like i talk too, and the sucky thing is sometimes you just can't get across the right inflection. It sucks. So you have to do crap like *rolleyes* or "j/k" or some crap to get across sarcasm. Just not cool.

Seriously, the whole time i was like "No, he's VAUGHN. Call him VAUGHN." Dude, when you get accustomed to calling a character by their last name, there is no turning back. (e.g. Mulder and Scully... you can't change it. Those are their names, forever and ever.)

Can i get a "GAG! COUGH! DONTCARE!" Or is that just me?
Right here man!

The chase scene was hot!! Especially when the car started to spin...and JJ slowed the frames, and you see Syd being a tough-chick using that pistol. Wow. Hotness.

all i could think was "I had lotsa fun driving that car, i wanna do that again! Let's have more adventures Sydney!"
Pfft. For real -_- Wth Lauren. And I'm trying to find a reason to like her as well, but when she told Syd to change field, that was just bitchy. The hell. Can we not all handle this like adults? The ironic part is, L is jealous of S when she's the one who's married to V. Of course, we all know too well why L should be jealous. Mwahahahaha. It's ooo-va!! And what?

And yeah, when Lauren said "damn!"...Syd was like "Ok, um, you're not me."

Sloane as a double agent? Oh SO many kinds of irony. Mwahaha. That's some nice fucked up shit.
Such a classic, eh?

I thought that maybe, just maybe, after Syd and Weiss left, Lauren would leave and then Syd would go back to the room so she and Vaughn could have a Moment.
WTH!! That's what I wanted as well. Man, as much as I love Weiss, I wanted everyone out of the room! Shit. And look what happened. This is sooo different from V seeing S/W cause we knew there was nothing going on b/w Syd and Will. At least not from Syd. So V had no reason to be hurt...he was just being a jealous Handler haha (oooh, how I miss that word :() This is ten times worst. Vaughn!! What have you done??? Damn it, times like these, let's get Will back!!

Icon: Clever thinking!! Niiiiice. heeheeee

SERIOUSLY. That was just all kinds of kickass. :D

Heeeee. So true. Lauren gets to go home to Vaughn every night, and yet she's jealous of Syd because- oh, what's that? HE LOVES HER THE MOSTEST. Hee.

Man, as much as I love Weiss, I wanted everyone out of the room!

Word. As adorable as the scene was (and it was, indeed, freakin adorable), i was just waiting for an S/V quiet moment. But NOOOOOOOOOO. NOTHING. Argh.

Okay I think I might be the only person ever not insanely sad that Simon died.. And OF COURSE I'm sad that he died cause he was SO the hotness.. but dude, if Jack hadnt of killed him I'd of been pissed. Cause I loooooove POed Jack. He kicks assass. So yea, YAY JACK. I really need to make a collage for that silly kid.

Well, that confirms it- you ARE pure evil. ;) Yeah, i was glad Jack shot him (dude, you don't FUCK with Jack, and, well, Jack smackdowns are the best thing EVER), but it still made me sad to see Simon bite it. The way he said "You SHOT me!" made me both laugh hysterically and be very, very sad. Heh. Ohh, Simon.

And ya know what's fucked up? I've never made a Jack collage. I've made J/I, but no just Jack. I think i've found lyrics, too, i've just never gotten around to it. (like, there's a Sloane collage that i've been meaning to make for, literally, a YEAR. I have the lyrics, i have the idea, i just haven't made it. Gah.)
