I'm too lazy to write about the two most recent eps of Torchwood but I'll just say

They were both wonderful. 'Adrift' was, despite being a Gwen-centric episode, quite interesting. There were problems I had with how Jack went about things, but it was still a pretty powerful episode. Made me tear up quite a bit.

'Fragments' was also wonderful. I really liked getting some background on the team, although I just have to say, Ianto's left even more questions unanswered. For an episode that shows us more insight into the characters, we still know very little about who Ianto really is. And I like that. I'm curious as hell, but I like it. It's like watching The X-Files again. For every question answered, 3 more pop up.

And as much as I loved the Jack/Ianto scene in 'Adrift,' that scene in 'Fragments' was even hotter/more powerful.

Yesterday, I went to the mall where I bought myself some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle thingies at Hot Topic, some Skullcandy headphones, a
with bright yellow, blue, and pink dinosaurs (50% off sale price - $17 to about $4), and I used an Old Navy gift card I have had for years and because they were having a Spring cleaning sale, got a sweatshirt (half off) and like 5 shirts that used to be $15 but were now $2.99. I also got my friend a birthday present since that's coming up in April. Oh yeah, and I bought the Stargate magazine mainly for one line in an interview with Michael Shanks - "I'll never truly say goodbye to Daniel - I'll end up in an asylum, just rocking back and forth going, 'But Jack, this is the way I feel about it - what do you think?!'"

Today, I had lunch with my dad and sister at McDonald's. My sister and I both got Happy Meals (my dad must be so proud - she's 12 and I'm 22). She got Belle's necklace as the toy and I got Jasmine's crown thing. I'm still wearing it actually. I was going to get chicken nuggets, but then I thought they might hurt my gums, so I got a cheeseburger instead.

Tonight, my dad, stepmom and sister are going to a play and I'm gonna order pizza and watch TMNT for about the 6th time this week. Okay, more like the 4th time, but still.

PS I just found out that the TW books take 3-5 weeks to ship and I'm not expected to get them until the end of April. Grrrr! Oh well, at least my dad is paying for them. Although I'm tempted to tell them to cancel their order and just give me the money so I can buy them at Borders.

I ♥ that scene in Fragments *stares at animation*

[spacemonkeyluvn.livejournal.com]

It really is a beautiful/emotional scene. Major love for both actors <3

*stares at your icon*

I need to make room for one of those.

I have to agree with that. I loved that scene so much more than the greenhouse scene. :D

Oh yeah, and I bought the Stargate magazine mainly for one line in an interview with Michael Shanks - "I'll never truly say goodbye to Daniel - I'll end up in an asylum, just rocking back and forth going, 'But Jack, this is the way I feel about it - what do you think?!'"

FUCKING LOL. I love it. Michael &hearts

[spacemonkeyluvn.livejournal.com]

Not that the greenhouse scene didn't have its perks ;) Although, even my favorite part of that scene was the kiss at the beginning and then Ianto's hand on Jack's face while he's ... working. At least we know that when the others aren't around, they really are just doing it everywhere.

And Michael is love. Daniel is love. SG1 is love <3
i miss sg1 :(

[jamesie-boy.livejournal.com]

Oh it definitely had it's perks! HELLOOO SHIRTLESS JACK AND IANTO. :D Oh man, now I have to watch the scene again! That was NOT a complaint. :P

I wonder if the team realises that Jack and Ianto probably did it right on all their desks?

SG-1... &hearts&hearts&hearts I miss them too. Though, right now I'm re-watching Season One. :D It's so funny to watch the first few episodes and see how new they are to it all.

[spacemonkeyluvn.livejournal.com]

I wonder if Jack and Ianto, since they obviously really get into it, ever forget to turn off the CCTV cameras. Or do they just leave them on and not care? I bet Jack wouldn't mind if the whole team watched anyway. He'd make a whole movie night out of it.

I miss old school!SG-1. I've been having this urge to go back and watch from the beginning and I might just have to now. I can't wait until the second movie comes out though. But it'll never be quite like it was.

*sigh*

I actually just saw my first two eps of Torchwood & may I say that Jack & Ianto are OMGYUMMYLIKEWHOA? 'Cause they are. ;)

(& um, OMG WHAT ARE THEY DOING IN THAT SCENE?)

"I'll never truly say goodbye to Daniel - I'll end up in an asylum, just rocking back and forth going, 'But Jack, this is the way I feel about it - what do you think?!'"

LOLZ. XD O, Michael. ::pets him::

[spacemonkeyluvn.livejournal.com]

Yes you may say that, for that is the TRUTH, sir!

Were the two eps of TW from the first or second series?

(In the animation scene [from the second series episode 'Fragments'], they're trying to sedate a pterodactyl, Jack grabs onto its leg as it goes flying around, he falls, Ianto catches him, Jack rolls them out of the way of a falling, now-sedated pterodactyl, and Ianto ends up on top. They laugh, realize the position they're in, and you can cut the sexual tension with a knife. Also, this is all before Ianto even joins Torchwood 3.)

And Michael is adorable. If RDA ever goes crazy too, we can put them in a white padded room together and they can just keep saying

'Jack.'
'Daniel.'

back and forth forever ^_^

I have yet to see Fragments :(

Eeeeee Happy Meals! I used to love them so much; I made everyone give me their pickles from the hamburgers xD

[spacemonkeyluvn.livejournal.com]

Oh noes! How come? I hope I didn't spoil anything :(

Happy Meals are fantastic! Mmmmm... pickles. Sometimes I'm not that hungry and dammit, I feel like a toy surprise with my food. Is that so much to ask?

I still get the crown from Burger King too ^_^

[bydaylight.livejournal.com]

It's okay, all I did was admire the pretty, pretty .gif and read the rest of the entry :D

Oh, I ask for the crown if they don't give it to me.

[marksofbattle.livejournal.com]

I have to agree, loved the Jack/Ianto scene in Adrift but the one from Fragments hit me so much more. Much love for both Gareth and John for it.

And Micheal, that quote just makes me want to hug him. Then squee.

[spacemonkeyluvn.livejournal.com]

I think this post was just one big squee-fest. Between the awesomeness that is Gareth and John and the absolute hugableness that is Michael Shanks, I am one happy Spacemonkey(luvn) =D

[crystal-lily.livejournal.com]

That was one hot scene, I totally agree.

Heh, I didn't know there were Hot Topic stores! I actually wanted to order from Hot Topic yesterday and then found out that they charge 36 dollars on a $7.5 order for shipment here, which is RIDICULOUS. So I obviously gave up on that.

"I'll never truly say goodbye to Daniel - I'll end up in an asylum, just rocking back and forth going, 'But Jack, this is the way I feel about it - what do you think?!'"
Oh, Michael Shanks, how I love you.

Oh! And those shoes are brilliant. :)

[spacemonkeyluvn.livejournal.com]

Hot indeed.

Oh yeah! I love the Hot Topic stores. They always smell like incense. But that is a ridiculous price for shipping. Good grief.

Michael Shanks deserves a great big hug!

And thank you ^_^ I love my new dinosaur shoes.
