doyleSo, passed all four of my exams. Go me!
Last night was spent spazed out in our living room with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
connorbeast, marymac and her boyfriend watching Pretty Woman, which I think everyone else on the planet but me had already seen. Good movie, though I'd have enjoyed if more if CB hadn't tried telling me that it ends with Julia Roberts' horrific murder. That lead to me pitifully whimpering through the last fifteen minutes. I'm willing to put money on there being an AU Spuffy of Pretty Woman out there somewhere, but since I was mentally recasting with Spike as Julia Roberts and Angel as Richard Gere, I can't really complain. (It works very well with Wesley and Connor too, but I think the Connorbeast and I are the only two who want those two to get it on).
Come to think of it, I'd probably read the AU Spuffy of Pretty Woman. But I'd do it in secret. Shh. I'm one of those people who shamefully reads some of the high school AUs. And on that, a story that I'm surprised nobody has written yet: a LOTR AU. No hobbits, no rings of power. And they're all in high school!
Aragorn Arathornson is the gym teacher at Middle Earth High. Will he take the Fighting Uruk-Hai to the all-state championships? Will he keep his job despite interference from the evil Principal Saruman? How about his relationship with his fiancee Arwen - she's sure to be pissed about the attention he's giving to that guy the school brought in to teach the kids archery, Mr. Legolas...
Meanwhile, the school kids have troubles of their own. Nerdish Frodo Baggins (raised by his uncle Bilbo after his parents died in a freak yachting accident) is shocked to realise that he and best friend Sam are an ambiguously gay duo. Drama! Their friends Merry and Pippin try to hide the fact that they actually are a gay duo. The counsellor, Mr. Gandalf, provides sage advice while Mr. Gimli growls a lot in woodshop. Why is Mayor Sauron so bent on getting the class ring? And why do they all have English accents in California?...
On the agenda this week - renting Titanic for purposes of MSTing. After Gangs of New York, Leo must be mocked.
