5TH NIGHT IS OVER
The man strolled down the hallway. Someone grabbed his hand, then flew away at great speed. Somewhat perplexed, he continued on, blasting forward to carry away his target, though she had already been assailed somewhat by a nearby woman, newly freed from the annoyance once clinging to her skirt.
The man flies speedily through the ship but is hit by a strange energy and finds it hard to communicate.
-
The leather-clad woman looks through the window. Her target seemed…familiar. She gathered what she needed to though and darted away.
-
‘Back down, bitch!’ cried the blonde woman, angrily, sweat dripping from her brow. Her foe was similarly struggling with their duel, though it was mental in nature. In the astral plane in which their duel took place, wars were fought and won with strength of will. As soon as one of them thought up stairs to run up, the other had thought of a boulder to chase them back down. ‘Ugh. You should have been convinced…’ sighed the blonde woman, as she was ‘hit’ by the mental boulder, smashing her right out of the duel, and landing roughly on the cold floor. She scampered away. Her foe smiled. Both had attacked each other with the same strategy, but it was who struck the first blow who won.
-
The man once again influenced the armoured woman…she was getting…hazy…
-
The little boy nervously made his way through the hallways. He’d let go of the woman he clung to earlier on, but was already regretting it. It seemed to get darker and darker the further into the bowls of the ship he ventured.
“Hello? Anyone? Leech scared…â€
He wipes tears away from his huge eyes, snivelling. It was pitch black now.
He spots a faint pink glow in the distance. Figuring it to be better than the darkness, he skips toward it. “Help! Please…?†he moans, approaching the light.
Mesmerised as he approaches it, he slows down, admiring the angular pink energy signature in awe. It moves to the right slightly, illuminating the sinister figure of it’s owner, a demonic grin across her face.
She rams the energy into the boy’s head. His cries go unheard.
Cube is dead. He was the Morlock child, Leech, an ally and friend of the X-Men.

Day Phase Six Is Now

So, back in Edinburgh after 2 and a half weeks in London, where I had the time of my life.
Pretty much found my home in Shoreditch (once you batter hipsters out your way). Made loads of new friends, many of which seemed genuinely sad I was going away. Did loads of joke things: Went on a date with a drag queen. Randomly went to the Tate Modern with a girl I'd met earlier that day, and saw a great exhibition by Taryn Simon. Had a foursome. Watched my friend working as a helping hand for a feature-filmaking crew (they were making a film called Riot On Redchurch Street), and was an extra in one scene (just walking in the background). Got asked to leave a club for dancing too excitedly. Went to Brighton Pride. I just loved.
East London feels like it could be in a TV show. You'd walk to Hoxton Square, then to Shoreditch High Street, and chances are you'd bump into someone you know, and love the feeling of. ALSO, the "beigel" (I love) shop in Brick Lane is my heartland.
I want to move there.
Can I come with you next time? The Luigi to your Mario. There if need be.

It's the best damn thing.
-
Everything about Grant Morrison's X-Men run is iconic.
-
I recently fell so in love with Bad Kids and Highway Unicorn, after being "This is fine." before.
You and I is ok in a countrypopweallrememberShaniaTwain way, but I'm not swayed particularly.
-
I've been really busy, sorry. I'll try and do it later tonight.
-
Better than Edge of Glory, shame since I think this'll flop and just generally not be as embraced as she might think. (relative to her other songs)
I like some of the images. Seems a bit chaotic though.
-
Yes. They know greatness when they homage it.
-
Never get to see any really. I did watch Phineas and Ferb last summer at my cousin's, and loved that it had an undercurrent of..adultness. Or things I'd find genuinely funny.
Last modern cartoon I watched actively was Wolverine and the X-Men.
-
I watched Kaboom.
(I love 'The Greg Araki' movie. 'A' is so undefinitive.)
It was wtf. Like..I get it. I get the joke is that it's not trying to be good. I love the non-ending (stunning song choice and felt so 'added in'). I love how it all felt like it was on a set, like purposely no people wandering around in the background. I love how blunt 'Well? Deal with it.' it was And how random it was. Come on Lorelei the lesbian witch and her revenge suplot.
However, i just felt it was neither one side or the other...I would've liked it to be more extreme and take itself less seriously, or take itself more seriously.
The camerawork felt a bit cheap, but not always endearingly.
Stella's face is my favourite thing. Thomas Dekker was fine, but then it felt the script was purposely lacking in character so you never got bogged down or involved.
Which adds when you think about it.
Hey Juno Temple's tits in every scene. I can't tell if she was good or bad, since english accents sound so unconvincing and forced in american films, even if the actor is english. Plus everything's relative since it was all "..." so I'm over it.
It was a (dry, thoughtful) joke, but I think more could've been made of it. Thinking back, it's an entirely pointless film. But you may as well if you're inclined. There's lots of sex in it.

I'm gonna get
Justice League
Action Comics
Batgirl
Animal Man
Wonder Woman
And thinking about Catwoman, Batman, Batwoman (since it looks stunn) and Supergirl.
-
They both have vaguely grey avatars/sigs, both know you/you know them (IIRC), both are Irish (I dont even know if they are. In my head they are.).
-
Who hasn't seen Amelie?
-
Yes thankyou, I do know what the covers look like
You're so unnecessary sometimes.
-
Also, anyone ever read the Grimm Fairy Tales books? Theyre ones I always see pop up.
Judging a book by its cover, but every cover I've seen of those comics just makes it look absolutely dreadful. The sort of stuff that gives comic readers a bad name.
The absolute nadir.
-
I thought so too. Unless Paj! and HeroicJan have some secret 'thing'. Have you forgotten me already, Paj! ?
[i fell off my chair at the painting. It's wonderful.]
Oh I'm sorry - I always confuse the two of you. I feel shitty. I meant you.

I thought HeroicJanitor might be interested in this. Not by me, obviously.

Speak Now is one of my favourite albums of 2010. Bearing in mind that year also birthed Have One on Me by Joanna Newsom and I Speak Because I Can by Laura Marling, two of my favourite (and best) albums ever, probably.
I heart Taylor Swift with a love that was once reserved only for Miley Cyrus' solo material (lel), but now goes beyond that, as she is actually a talented songwriter and I've always enjoyed country-pop-rock crossover shizz.
The album before that has good singles, the rest is ok. Not bothered with her first one, I assume it's bad.
-
That film is shit. A rubbish attempt to have pretty teens having sex with people and throwing what little regard they had for plot completely out of the window for the ending which seemed to be made up about 2 months after the film was finished shooting.
Fuck you, tranny!
/ I have no idea. I was in the mood and Araki is an 'auteur' I've read about recently but never sampled. Plus it was bought for me, so it's win-win. Or maybe just win. A single win.
-
Animal Man by Grant Morrison.
It's brilliant. Clean, concise superhero storytelling that (eventually) gives way to the Morrison-ness that of course lies within. But at a 'tolerable' level (this is no Final Crisis).
READ IT NOW.

I liked the battle system of 35837465DaysNightKingdom Hearts but the ENDLESS SCENES OF THEM EATING ICE CREAM Oh JESUS
-
If anyone is interested Supergods is worth a read. Grant Morrison is pretty interesting/quirky/smart and ever so slightly full of himself and punchable (mostly in a good way). He sounds like he'd be a lot of fun down the pub.
Considering I love him and going to see him talk in promotion of it, I haven't read it yet.
I kinda already know what it's about having read/studied/based my life on his works.

So Schism 3 was awesome. The Generation Hope chapter isn't exactly essential reading (yet), it just tells the prelude to what happens in the museum/the aftermath briefly from Idie's point of view. But yeah, read it I guess. I loved the art of Schism 3.
I also loved Uncanny. Land's art was tolerable. Not oppurtunity for bad poses, except one stray shit one of Kitty acting horrified but looking like she's really happy.
I loved all the power combo things. It felt like a epic struggle thing trying to stop Juggernauts.
