Oh, all right TSCC, but your fandom has a tragic lack Agent Ellison icons.
Oh, all right. I still don't love it like burning, but when you start getting vid bunnies (even if they're the ones you're trying to ignore), it's time to call it quits and get an icon.
Plus there's the fact that I appear to be developing a rather large crush on Agent Ellison. It's somewhat embarassing. But not quite as embarassing as the time I realised I fancied Sam Anders. (Yes, I always get embarassed about having crushes on people; I go through denial, then bargaining, then acceptance. No, I'm not sure why either).
But seriously, where are all the Agent Ellison icons? Am I going to be forced to accept that NOT everyone thinks the show should be all about him, and perhaps Sarah? And that every episode ought to feature them having angsty conversations and nuanced portrayals of faith and robots?
I looked for like a whole THIRTY MINUTES and I only found two, and the other one was kinda crappy. It could have been worse, I could have been looking forShirely Manson Catherine Weaver icons. There weren't any of those. But that's okay cus I don't really like her. Whereas:
AGENT ELLISON, DAMMIT! HE DOES AWESOME THINGS LIKE TEACH ROBOTS ABOUT GOD BECAUSE THAT ALWAYS LEADS TO PEACE AND HARMONY, AMIRITE?
And...there wasn't really any point to this post. Like, at all.
Also: I have inexplicably finished that fic I started about six months ago (where Natalie was alive and stuff), and I'm not really sure how that happened or how it got to be so long. I've become comfortable with being a fanvidder but I still feel odd about writing fiction like this that's not, like, as a result of a prompt or something. Which I'd try to explain but I already established I get embarassed and awkward about the stupidest stuff. So, my goal is to get it beta'd and such by the time the new series starts so it can invalidate it all. GO ME!
Also: Happy New Year to all you suckers who have to wait an extra 9 - 17ish hours for 2009!
Also: I am reading the script for the Caprica pilot. I am, so far, supremely unimpressed but I'm not that far through with it yet. It could redeem itself. More news as it breaks.

Sort of just YES to all of this! The show should totally be about him, and maybe Sarah (and, um, I could totally ship them--IJS), and he is so unfairly neglected!!!!! I did find this icon (by
Don't be embarrassed! He needs more love! :D

me too.
BUT YAY! SOMEONE ELSE WHO LOVES HIM! I am pretty pleased though, with his storyline in S2. Like, obviously, there should be more of it, but since I don't think they're going to write him as just hanging out with the Connors all the time (and though I loved loved loved his brief interactions with them, and while as I mentioned, I could 'ship it, I'm not even completely convinced that the character would fit well in the Connorworld on the show) then I think it's gratifying that he at least has a pretty significant independent storyline rather than just being a recurring character who occasionally gets calls from his ex-FBI buddies or something and helps out. So I'm pleased with it inasmuch as I didn't think they were going to actually do something as dynamic as split him off from the FBI, etc.
Yet I have no interest in learning to make them myself...
I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN!
I'm totally in love with beautiful icons, but the urge to make them is just...completely absent. So I get terribly irked when the rest of the world just doesn't go and make exactly the icons I want, dammit!
I actually really like this one in terms of colouring and composition. I just wish it were a little more close-up so that you could see who it is. But I'm happy with it for now.
