My hair is red. Really, really red. I like it.

Stayed up far too late yesterday watching B5. And of course, I alternated between giggling like a lunatic (G'Kar in Garibaldi's hat! Lennier headbutting the camera!), whimpering (Poor Londo! Poor drunken Vir!), and mnaking general squeaky noises (G'Kar saying Londo's probably the loneliest of everyone, and then the scenes in the cell, and omg *squeak*).

And okay, what is with all the Jesus metaphors in this season? First G'Kar, with the whipping and stuff, then Sheridan and Garibaldi as Jesus and Judas (or was I the only one to be reminded of JCS during a lot of these scenes?).

God, I really do not want to do work today. Booo.

I'll try! I'll have to beat my webcan around a bit, I think, but I should manage!

We have a proper digital camera, and once I go and pick them up two cellphones with cameras (eee!), once of which is pretty decent.

So if you want to take pictures, you can borrow the camera...

I'll take you up on that at some point, so I can take some decent pictures, but for my current purposes, the webcam'll do. ^_^

G'Kar is totally a Jesus metaphor. Did you see in "And The Rock Cried Out, No Hiding Place" that when the woman sang "Jesus", the visual cut to G'Kar? And the whipping and yeah...It doesn't get more anvilly than that.

So how much of B5 /did/ you get through last night?

I finished S3 at your place and then watched the first eight eps of S4 at home. (I um. fast-forward through the battle scenes, so it didn't take quite that long.)

But the Jesus/Judas metaphor between Sheridan and Garibaldi is pretty strong too, with the whole "You've started to believe the things they say of you" bit.

Also, relatedly, I wish to cuddle Zach Allen and totally agree with him that something is highly wrong with Garibaldi.

Er, hang on,. Last ep I saw was Conflicts of Interest, so that makes it twelve episodes, about halfway through.

Hopefully I'll be able to finish S4 tonight and then not start watching S5 because them I'll be up even later than last night. Yawn.

Quite.*g* Those cell scenes make me glued on the screen each time. [livejournal.com profile] andrastewhite wrote a fabulous missing cell scene which you can find at [livejournal.com profile] hobsonphiles Enemies & Allies archive.

Jesus metaphors: no one loves those as much as a self-confessed atheist. And JMS isn't done with them yet. (Meaning other character get to play the part as well, cough, cough.)

Oooh, must check out that story!

And yeah, I get the feeling (From Deconstruction of Falling Stars et al) that Sheridan = Jesus is going to be crammed down my throat like there's no tomorrow.

Heh, maybe that's why they tend to irritate me, as I'm Christian. :D (It's mostly just that a lot of the time, they're incredibly clumsily done, or it's the main reason we know we're supposed to like the guy, and argh). B5 has one of the few I can stomach.

Actually, Sheridan=Jesus is over with Deconstruction. He only plays a very subdued role in the fifth season, with not much screentime.

Oh, I forgot!
