30 Days Couple Challenge - #27

Day 27: Another couple you shipped a long time ago


Jim & Blair, The Sentinel

Yes, the original Sentinel and his Guide who spawned all the Sentinel/Guide AU stories in other fandoms. Jim and Blair rocked. Jim as the butch hero, Blair as the empathetic "damsel in distress" - seriously, if there was a way to get into trouble, Blair found it. They worked together, lived together, went on vacation together. Their relationship was so symbiotic it was almost co-dependent. Though Blair was definitely the woobie of the show, sacrificing himself for Jim time and time again. But it really worked with the whole Sentinel-Guide stuff and their roles perfectly. It was like a fanfic coming true... And darn the producers for releasing only S1 on DVD *pouts*

( Remaining days cut! )

Skyfall!

The Skyfall trailer looks amazing! No matter what anybody says, Daniel Craig is THE James Bond for me. He's the one who made me sit up and pay attention. His Bond is no cheesy, sleazy, smarmy Lothario - seriously, the "Bond, James Bond" spiel actually works on women? O_o - he's strong and fast and unassuming when needed and always DEADLY!

Podfic rec: Inception

"Breaking and Entering" by resonant, read by anatsuno | Arthur/Eames | Eames is very good at pretending. | 54min.

"Eames," he said. "Thank you. For pretending."

Eames snatched his hand away. He was only playing nurse, this time. Not -- anything else. Did Arthur think he was that much of an ass?

"No, it's all right." Arthur's voice was only a thread, and his eyes were already half-shut. "You're very good at pretending."

Lovely story! And it looks like I'm big on hurt!Arthur. Need to investigate more :)

Sanctuary canceled

I know there are peeps on my flist who watched this series, so... According to this article - link - SyFy canceled Sanctuary. It's not unexpected since they hesitated this long to pick it up, but it's not really a fair treatment, IMHO, to let everybody wait and wait and wait and then give them the bad news. But that's SyFy for you, classy as always :-/
