BBC WHAT ARE YOU DOING I NEED A PREVIEW FOR NEXT WEEK.
I...just...oh, Gene.
He called Sam. Of course he called Sam, the man he's hardly known, over the department he's worked with for God knows how long, and then when he does escape, again, he goes to see Sam.
This is clear evidence of love.
And the whole scene in Sam's apartment hurt me, lots. Gene with his head in his hands, which you just know is about as much as he's ever going to weaken in front of people, IN FRONT OF SAM, made me wibble and flail like a flailing thing.
Not to mention, the slamming-against-the-wall that took place immediately before that. In Sam's dark apartment. While they were both angry and shouting. Oh, God, my lovely seventies gay boys, what will I do without you?
The whole episode was brilliant, I thought. And very slashy. Was it just me, or was everyone else that spoke to Sam acting like Sam and Gene were a couple? Seriously, the episode basically went like this:
PLOT: *is established*
ACTING DCI: Sam, Gene must be guilty. Do Hyde things.
SAM: INNOCENT.
EVIDENCE: *makes Gene look bad*
SAM: STILL INNOCENT.
RANDOM PERSON INVOLVED IN CASE: I gave Gene money!
SAM: WAH HE MUST HAVE BETRAYED ME!
ANNIE: .... tell me you're not just pissed off because you thought you talked him out of the bribes?
SAM: ....
ANNIE: So the part where it looks like he's guilty isn't bothering you?
SAM: ....
ANNIE: Just the part where it looks like you can't trust him?
SAM: NOT GUILTY BUT NOW I MUST ANGST!
GENE: Here I am, in your apartment! Let us fight, talk manfully while I SIT ON YOUR BED and then do the sex.
CASE: *is eventually solved, through Gene being brilliant and Sam being trusting*
ANNIE: Now be my boyfriend?
SAM: No, I'm off to do weird, kinky sex with Gene in his squirrel costume!
ANNIE: ??
SAM: ...I mean...um...gotta go be crazy now kthxbye.
And oh my God, the squirrel costume! The rat-squirrel banter! The opening section, with Sam totally staying with Gene through his drunk and angry drinking sessions!
AND OH MY GOD THE COUPLENESS OVER BREAKFAST. THE NIGHTMARE SCENE. GENE IN SAM'S BED. MY BRAIN CANNOT TAKE THIS AMOUNT OF GLEEEEEEE.
And the end, with Gene being all Ranty McCrossPants, didn't Sam look completely 'Yeah, he's not yelling at me. We made up hours ago, and now he's just cross with youuuuuuuu'? To me, he did.
I want to write fic now.

I want to write fic now.
Oh, God, how will I cope when this show has ended? WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?
I know I've not updated for ages. I could have just put random entries in here, and a few times I was going to, but I wanted to spare you all my whinings about my legs and dull little observations on my daily life.
It is Easter now, though. Don't think you'll escape while I have
Today, we visited Rheged (random little place built under a big rock/grass thing in the Lake District), and I bought some chocolate (which I ate today, even though I'm supposed to be trying to lose weight - hey, I needed the emotional support for this episode) and also some PAPER. Seriously, you have no idea how happy buying stationary makes me. It's a little pathetic. There's this shop called The Paper Mill Shop, and you could fill this box with paper/card for £4. I have lots of paper. I'm happy now.
All I want now are some halfway decent felt tips - yes, I know, but I want them for revision: I'm trying to just plaster my room with the things I need to remember and then see if looking at them without having to concentrate on it will help me absorb anything any better.
Do any of you have any revision-type tips?
Anyway, there should be fic coming over these holidays. Lovely, lovely fic.

Date: 2007-04-03 10:16 pm (UTC)You have to stay up all night and talk to me about how Sam and Gene will take over the world with their sexy squirrel costumes- AND OH MY GOD MY CAT JUST BROUGHT IN A DEAD MOUSE AND IS AT THIS MOMENT PLAYING WITH IT ON THE LIVING ROOM CARPET.
Great. Thank you, Milton (yes, my cat is called Milton).

Date: 2007-04-03 10:27 pm (UTC)THEIR GAY IS SO TRUE.
My father asked why I was so against Sam going back to non-70s, and I kind of went "But...but...he'd leave Gene", and he looked at me like I was crazy.
BUT THEIR GAY IS SO TRUE.

Date: 2007-04-03 10:32 pm (UTC)GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE. That was the plan, but I had to wait until he'd stopped playing with it, and now I can't find it and...THAT'S BAD.
BUT SAM AND GENE WILL SAVE ME WITH THEIR AWESOME

Date: 2007-04-04 08:15 pm (UTC)Sam pinned up against the wall - shiver! -replay. -shiver! repeat to the power of infinity - Oh, God, I know. Just...there are no words for the hotness. The incredible closeness of Gene's face to Sam's and the whole LOOK LOOK WE CAN HUMP EACH OTHER WHILE DISGUISING IT AS FIGHTING! of them both.
...okay, so you probably didn't need me to explode a comment on you. Still. Hotness. *brain melts*

Date: 2007-04-04 10:02 pm (UTC)I will talk to you about revision and exams then. There will be handy hints, sympathy and cuddles. Also? I fucking LOVE buying stationary. *sigh* We really are too similar. :D
no subject
Date: 2007-04-04 10:18 pm (UTC)Stationary shopping is very much for the win, is it not?
I may make you watch Life On Mars. Would that distress you too terribly? Bear in mind I would be shouting GAY GAY PRETTY PRETTY GAY BOYS HAHA! at the screen every few minutes.
FRIDAY! *hugs you*

Date: 2007-04-04 10:21 pm (UTC)I was trying to write LOM fic that had a smidgen of plot but I don't really like it.
It does include the lines 'Then he walks over and gets in the bed, staying as far away from Gene as the limited space will allow, and wrenches the thin cover over himself' and "And you were going to do what? Bugger me awake?".
Now I give up with the thin plot and go and write porn. It's just easier
and hotter.no subject
Date: 2007-04-04 10:23 pm (UTC)Oh fine then, you can make me watch Life On Mars. I am confident that it will not be anywhere near as painful as Torchwood. Plus you shouting at the screen will amuse me greatly (mainly cuz I'm the one usually doing it).
FRIDAY!!!! *glomps*

Date: 2007-04-13 10:06 pm (UTC)I wish to mainly say YES and GAY and LOL and SQUIRREL - That is pretty much this entry in four words. I wonder if that would have perhaps been a better response?
It was how my head was feeling. LOLGAYSQUIRRELGLEE.
Hee, I'm glad the summary made you laugh.
I LOVE EPISODE SEVEN TOO MUCH. I loved episode seven of series one too (even though it distressed me terribly and I had to pause the dvd at one point because I was close to hyperventilating - GENE NO DON'T DISMISS SAM WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN THE LOCKERS SAM OMG GENE IS BEING SINCERE I CAN'T BREATHE). It seems to be something of a theme. Er, my liking of the episode, that is. Also the rambling.
Oh God, why can't I stop typingggg?
