It's been a while since I've polled my audience. Consider yourself polled. It's heavily Anita Blake balanced, which is okay as I fangirl the AB.

[Poll #720233]

I don't get Harry/Ginny pairing. I know it's the next "logical" step. But the girl has to be seriously disturbed on some level and not lightly. The whole Chamber incident during her first had to have left some kind of scar that would be beyond any nightmares.

I like to believe that she unknowingly part of some insidious plot to get rid of Harry.

Harry's no ball of fluff and light himself. Maybe they should hook up to save everyone else in the wizarding world the angst. i dunno.

Heck, JKR doesn't need any help at ALL in that regard.

"Heck, JKR doesn't need any help at ALL in that regard."

True.

"Harry's no ball of fluff and light himself."

Yeah, he's no fluff ball. If I let myself think about it long enough, I don't really like Harry either. But hey, the're just characters. I even find times where I don't like Anita. I guess that's what makes them all seem so real. In a way, it's what draws so many people to them (and to other books).

Eh. I'm sounding so unlike myself. Moving on.

Morena Baccarin as Anita = awesomeness. Nathan Fillion as Richard, not so much.

Vodka is the one liquor I can't drink without a guaranteed hangover - I can down half a bottle of tequila and regret it less than a single mixed drink with a shot of vodka in it. *shrug*

I think she'd be great. Yes, we all know Anita's as pale as death, but there's makeup.

Nathan: Yeah, I don't know what I was thinking.

And man, tequila makes my head spin. Doesn't matter how much.

Well... there weren't enough options for me, so I answer like this :)

Morena Baccarin could do if the rest of the crew are taller enough... she has too dark skin, but I don't expect that there's too many actors who actually look like LKH describes Anita... Although I haven't seen her anywhere else than Firefly (where she is pretty much covered most of the time) so I don't know if she is athletic enough. Kate Beckinsale is likewise too tall, she just looks so nice in my icon :)
Nathan Fillion on the other hand doesn't fit my image of Richard at all, he's not... umm... beautiful enough. AB books are full of pretty boys and I just don't count Nathan Fillion as one of them. I like him well enough, but he's just not breathtaking.

I haven't seen that episode.

I don't think JKR is going to go there, but I've read a couple of fanfics where that's entirely plausible ;)

My OTP is Harry/Snape, but I chose the ones I like best from your list. I'm mostly slasher, Anita is one of the few women I can stand reading about enough to enjoy her in pairings :)

Alcohol and Ansku just doesn't mix well, I have abysmal tolerance for it and am drunk almost before I even start drinking... and I've done enough stupid and humiliating things while drunk that I haven't much touched anything stronger than water for years...

I've never been able to understand Harry/Snape. I've tried, but I've never liked Snape as a character, I guess.

From: [personal profile] ansku
Well, I started with Harry/Draco, but I've found that with Snape there's much less continuing issues I don't have patience with - mainly Draco being a spoiled brat ;) And I have to say that Snape in most of the Snarry fics is quite different person (snarky bastard, yes, but with different nuances) than the one seen in canon or most of the non-slasher fics - especially since most of them are still written pre-HBP when there just weren't so many hard facts to begin with. I mean, the whole series is from Harry's POV and he's proven wrong about Snape all the time... Well, that works after HPB too, I for one believe Snape was just doing what Dumbledore had ordered :)
And one just have to appreciate well done sarcasm ;)

Hmm
Vodka and Mhalachai?
Confusing, I'd have to read the chapter over again the next day...
But still. Pretty words go swirly!

Hem hem.

Three things that prove I'm a total geek.
1: My girlfriends comp broke, so I went with her to get a new one, and held an entire conversation with the tech guy about the processor and such in teh comp. >_<
2. I wrote the answer to a short-answer question in leet, and left it that way >_<
3. My girlfriends mother, and I am qouted as saying this, looks like Umbridge.

On another note...
I like Pie!

Keep up the fun clicky thingies (polls) and teh good-fic.

I can't see Nathan as Richard...possibly someone else in the AB world but not Richard. Not big enough...sexy enough but physically built he doesn't fit the profile.

Vodka goes with everything but keeps dribbling off the pizza....

Only one person is good for Mal and that is River ~ and I have to add this pairing ~ Harry/Draco or Harry/Snape. Cuz Ginny gets on my nerves and 'mione goes with Ron.

Good and funny poll!

Nathan's not tiny, but you're right, I don't think he'd make a good Richard.

I wonder if anyone's ever written Snape/Ron. *shudder*

Pepsi and vodka taste like NyQuil. Whether or not that's a good thing is entirely dependent on you. Personally, I prefer my mixed drinks not to taste like cough medicine, but that's just me.

Pepsi in itself is gross. Anyway, meh. Vodka's better than a kick to the head, I suppose.

Adrian Paul totally needs to be Richard. I've been watching HL season 2, and there is no one more perfect for the part:

tall and broody: yes
long, luscious dark hair with the hint of a wave: yes
built like a minor deity: yes

Fillion may be delicious, but all he's got on AP is youth.

Oooh, I forgot about Adrian Paul. He'd be great. And yeah, Fillion's young and all that but not right for an AB movie. All right, toss him overboard.

Yeah, just go click on the poll #, then "fill out poll" and you can change stuff.

Nooooooooo, no Nathan as Richard, because I don't like Richard, and I do like Nathan. He needs to be someone else in the movie. Morena can be Anita, though, because I'm ambivalent towards her (both the actor and the character).

From: [identity profile] mhalachaiswords.livejournal.com
The problem is I can't think of a single soul who would be any good as Richard, other than maybe Scott Speedman (in Underworld) but I keep having Ideas.

Oh well. It's probably a good idea I'm not in charge of casting.

ext_60814: (HP // Harry/Draco)
From: [identity profile] thekams.livejournal.com
Serisouly, vodka will go with *anything*, but I just don't like coke! LoL

As for pairings:
In HP I usually ship Harry/Draco, Harry/Ron/Hermione, sometimes Harry/Ginny and lately, even some Harry/Snape (I have no idea why, I'm just going through a phase, I hope)..and Harry/Ginny/Luna!!
In AB, the canon pairings...er, the canon septuplet? Orgy? *shrugs*
In Stargate, Jack/Sam
In Firefly, Mal/Inara, Kaylee/Simon, River/Jayne and then Zoe/Wash (or course)
In Buffy, Buffy/Spike, Angel/Cordelia, Xander/Anya, Willow/Tara (and now that Tara is dead, no one..I really don't like Kennedy) and my Angel pairing, Fred/Gunn

...and all of those go out the window because I love to read crossovers, in which all these pairings (orgys) get screwed up as I matxh them with people from other shows! =D muahaha

Also, what is this Neelan Liquor significance? It is not ringing any bells (prolly will as soon as I find out, though, and then I'll feel dumb). ♥

just because you mentioned Vodka and food .. the Vodka cookbook (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1904920276/sr=8-1/qid=1146510611/ref=pd_bbs_1/002-3111205-1832839?%5Fencoding=UTF8) - which has amazing recipes and I bet you'd find one in their for a mhalachai or pizza. ;)

Alright, let's see here.

Morena Baccarin would work; Nathan Fillion's too small for Richard. That is, from what I've read from you of the man.

Dumbledore is (was) definitely on the crack, but the prophecy is still about Harry. Was since Voldemort attacked him. BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN our boy Dumbles isn't snorting lines with Fawkes in that swanky office of his.

Am I the only one disturbed that Sam/Jack is getting more votes than Daniel/Jack? Or is that just me. Also, big giant WTFs to Mal/River (WTF?!), Harry/Tonks (WTF?!), and Jayne/Kaylee (WTF?!). Seriously.

Date: 2006-05-01 10:22 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] mhalachaiswords.livejournal.com
Nathan Fillion is 6'1", so he's not tiny. But I don't think he'd be right for the role. No one would be right for the role, damn it.

As for the Mal/River and Jayne/Kaylee, any relationship on that boat is fraught with peril and underage weirdness. As for Harry/Tonks, I think I'm the only one who ships that... in about 8 years for Harry. Why do I like that? Because I enjoy causing TROUBLE.

I had to comment.
I think MB has the look, but since I haven't seen her in anything else, I'm not convinced she could pull off the 'tude.

NF as Richard didn't occur to me until now, but interesting.

Wouldn't it be the BIGGEST bite in the a$$ if it turned out that Neville WAS prophecy boy and Dumbledore had been using HP as a decoy the entire time???!!!

My actual all time MG pairing is Merry/Frost. They just do it for me.

On the vanilla coke front... can I just say EEEWWWWW

Have a great day cause this gave me a well deserved giggled after a wickedly harsh weekend!
