Whiskey. Tango. Foxtrot. Part Deux.

Mommy Duck went to the market today. 

Mommy Duck saw a cute little baby boy (probably not a minute over one year old) with blonde hair and blue eyes, sitting amiably in his pram, apparently determined to accompany his nanny to the market. 

Mommy Duck made the acquaintance of Blue-eyed Baby and Nanny and Baby proved to be a charming, affable young fellow, who will probably be making the ladies swoon when he is a lot older. 

When Mommy Duck came home, she happily told her still boyfriend-less (and happy to stay that way) Duckling all about her new little friend. 

And the kicker is when Mommy Duck tells her Duckling:  "Oh I wish you'd give me one of those.  One day.  Maybe when you marry Daniel Craig?"

Okay.  She wants me to marry James Bond.  So I can give her blue-eyed grandbabies. 

Uh.

Mommy Duck also thinks I could snag a Brendan Fraser-lookalike if I put my mind to it.

Oy vey.

My mom's making those grandchildren noises, too. And I wouldn't be surprised if she also wants me to marry a white guy so her grandkids can match up with the rest of my half-white nieces and nephews!

[darth-stitch.livejournal.com]

Run very very fast and very very far away if she starts to mention the names of specific white guys. Or says she wants the white guy to look like Brad Pitt or some such.

You gotta love the 'rents for dreaming. :P

My mother gave up long ago when I told her that I wanted to stay single, and that I couldn't stand kids.

And to this day I'm still single and still don't like kids. But, oh boy!! I love the single life and no way am I giving up my independence. BTW, I'm 48 years old and still finding it fun. ;D

I actually adore kids and kids like right back - probably because they've got me pegged for an overgrown kid, what can I say?

But the thought of parenthood is terrifying and I am far more comfortable seeing myself as godmother to hordes of godchildren (and I can hand 'em back to their 'rents when the day is done).

I figure if you're happy the way you are, you're happy the way you are. That's how I am and how I like things too. Cheers to the single life!

No offense but I think your mum has managed to take the "I want grandkids" thing to a whole new level of weird. Just tell her that you're holding out for a guy who looks like Abel (there's at least one of them out there)*grin* *wink*.

The Duck and I have now seen Twilight together. She's currently holding out for a non-vampire version of Edward Cullen. Oy vey. :P

[nightofcydonia.livejournal.com]

*winces* No offense, but your mum's taste isn't that great ( a) he's a creepy stalker, and b) vampire's don't sparkle dammit!).
~Weaver

[darth-stitch.livejournal.com]

Um. I have to admit it. I love Twilight. And I love Edward. Sparkles and all. I know vampires don't sparkle (whimpers) but waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh not care anyways. :P

Yus, I'll be putting up a Twilight review shortly. The movie, I mean. The books are my guilty pleasure but yeah, New Moon sucketh muchly. Breaking Dawn is my crack. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

More on this in an LJ post.

[nightofcydonia.livejournal.com]

Tsch, I'm disappointed in you. I thought you had better taste then that. *has an extensive list of reasons why I won't touch Twilight with a barge pole* Eh, give me badass vamps over the emo variety any day (there's a reason why I start grinning like a maniac during fight scenes).
~Weaver

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!

[darth-stitch.livejournal.com]

Would it comfort you to know that Abel Nightroad is still miles above Edward in my list of favorite fangy guys? (Yus, even The Teme is ahead of Edward...'cos, you know, the Teme can grow on you...)

I'll let you in on a wee sekrit for the Days of Bliss AU story, which will probably be a new ficverse.... I keep seeing the Behaved!Teme doing the goofy priest thing. Yep. The Teme in glasses and a white cassock....um, overcoat. Oh dear oh dear oh dear..... :P

Re: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!

[nightofcydonia.livejournal.com]

*blinks* What? *brain breaks*

The teme may grow on you, but my hatred is unwaivering, mainly bacause in addition to being a genocidel psycho, he's repeatedly broken what I think of as Rule One; never harm family. You can fight, you can disagree, you can hold grudges for decades, but the moment you actively try to harm them out of malice or otherwise in cold blood, you're lower then pond scum and, for want of a better word, excomunicated (hence why I don't have any problem with the teme being dropped through the atmosphere).

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Brain broke!

All right, don't worry - the Teme will remain the Teme in the Milk Tea series. I have an end scene for him floating around in my brain somewhere. The Cain in my Milk Tea series is psycho crazy batshit and at his ultimate core, I sincerely believe the fucker is crazy in love with Abel and THAT is the reason why he is doing what he is currently doing. For Cain Knightlord, a world where his Abel does not love him is a world not worth saving.

And my Milk Tea Abel is subconsciously (or perhaps not) aware of this love, which makes him reel back in both horror and grief and guilt. Because Milk Tea Abel still loves Cain, although Abel's love is obviously of the healthy, decent, non-incestuous sort. The Nightlord twins have always been the mirrors of the other, back in the Good Ol' Days. Abel has had 900 years to slowly realize that Cain is not simply the extension of his other self, but also his own person, just as Abel is not simply an extension of Cain. But it is a slow, ongoing process.

Cain, alas, has never grasped this. I'm a little inspired by David Eddings' view on twins (Polgara & Beldaran) in which Cain refers to himself as "we" - not a royal "we," not really, but more of the fact that he is actually the more submissive twin.

But somewhere in the twistedness of that love, Cain still recognizes that he should not have destroyed Abel's happiness in killing Lilith. It was a mistake and it cost him Abel. Cain Knightlord is prepared to destroy Esther and unborn Zachary in a fit of jealousy but he's going to end up not following through on this and I've already given hints why in the Zachary story I wrote. (Yes, this will be taken up in more detail in another fic.)

Now, in the Days of Bliss AU, Cain Knightlord did NOT kill Lilith Sahl. They are married, they rule the Methuselah Empire together with Abel and Seth and Cain never had the chance to go crazy batshit but the seeds for it are there. However, I'm planning a sequel fic for this where Someone Else goes crazy batshit psycho (again, because of Abel, ahahahahaha guess who?) and Days of Bliss AU Cain will face the choice of madness or redemption.

Days of Bliss AU Abel will have different choices - remember that in this ficverse, he found a second chance at love and acceptance in Esther and that he has finally laid to rest his old love of Lilith. In this universe, Abel is the Prince of an Empire and will begin to emerge from Emperor Cain's glorious shadow. Just like Milk Tea Abel, DoB Abel will need to shift himself off the frontlines as a mere soldier or weapon and into the leader he should be.

Does that make sense now? Heh. I shall now proceed to break MY brain in writing out TWO fan fiction universes for ONE freakin' anime.

And now, I'm also hooked on Code Geass. Damn you, Lelouch Lamperouge. (facepalms)
