cdrama: The Little Fairy(mostly pics)

I'm somewhere in ep 5 of The Little Fairy now.  It's very cute and fun, but a little slow so far(plus, Ariel Lin's character is kinda annoying me right now, but then, she's pretending to be a boy and convince everyone-many who briefly met her as a girl-that she's a boy, so I'm forgiving, esp. as I really liked her when she was being herself)  Mostly though, it's reminding me of Chinese Paladin and making me think of that.  Which makes sense, really..Hu Ge is the hero in both, and the same actors are playing his mentor and the villain as did in CP, though all 3 characters couldn't be more different from how there were in CP, and only Hu Ge looks remotely the same.  Incidentally, dangermousie, the guy who plays Little Fish's sidekick in Handsome Siblings is the villain in both TLF and CP(of the 3, I think HS is the weakest role for him, though)  Also, the two series are shot and colored almost exactly the same and have many similar effects, and both focus a lot on friendship alongside the romance, and the friendships have a similar vibe.

I must say, though, that I adore the secondary OTP...she's a very shy but very pretty waitress who has a crush on one of Hu Ge's friends, who's impossibly serious and focused but has some pretty good martial arts skills.  Which, naturally, have only been used to save her from kidnappers so far.

And, on a completely shallow note, Tae is very pretty(even if he is mostly just ARiel Lin's ounching bag so far in the series)

Anyway, mostly, I come bringing pics of much cute and pretty. Click on them and they get bigger.

cdrama: Young Warriors of the Yang Clan, picspam

So, being relatively shallow when it comes to certain things, I freely confess that 99.99% of why I want to see Young Warriors of the Yang Clan is because it has Hu Ge and Eddie Peng(in roles that sound similar to their Chinese Paladin roles) with swords.  There are also random other people I don't care about yet, but I'm sure I will once I actually watch it.  

Anyway, I bring you pics.  Not just of Hu Ge and Eddie Peng(ok, it mostly was...).  Click and they get bigger.

EEEEEE!!!!!!

dangermousie!  dangermousie! (and any other Elizabeth Peters fans)

I just read in an e-mail that it's rumored that Elizabeth Peters's next book is a Vicky Bliss book! John!

It's been...what...10 years?  (actually, given the events of the last book, it'd need to be several years later, but...)

*flails some more in hopes*
