i'm still running from the fire, the fire

So, I made a Nick Jonas/Caleb Followill fanvid.


Yeah, that's how I'm choosing to start this entry. DON'T EVEN ASK ME WHERE IT CAME FROM. I'm still not entirely sure. All I know is that I hardcore ship them, now? It started out all ANGST and SEX and RELIGION, and now all of a sudden [livejournal.com profile] thepodsquad and I CANNOT STOP TALKING ABOUT NICK AND CALEB GETTING GAY MARRIED AND LIVING ON A CORN FARM IN IOWA WITH THEIR BABY CALLED COSTELLO. Using Miley as their surrogate. I'M NOT KIDDING YOU GUYS. THIS IS MY LIFE NOW. It's not helped by this terrible quality video of an interview from last year where the following is said:

Caleb: I think we're the second best-looking brother band (something I can't hear). The Jonas Brothers are dressed up pretty nice.
Matt: No they're not!
Caleb: (Something, maybe 'We're good!') Saw 'em last night in the lobby. Jesus, those little guys. I know they're probably legal to drink here, but Disney would screw 'em if they ever saw them with a beer--it'd be in every magazine.

You guys, Caleb Followill thinks the Jonas Brothers are good looking and he feels sorry for them 'cause they can't have a drink. ♥_♥

But yeah, at some point during all of this, I was watching the Lines, Vines and Trying Times photoshoot video and it reminded me really strongly of Rolling Stone's At Home With Kings of Leon video. And then my brain started meshing the two and like, it has no real story and seriously, this is only the second fanvid I have ever made, but IT HAD TO BE DONE. Feel free to ignore my insanity.

IN OTHER NEWS, I have now finished my exams until January! SO YAY. Unfortunately, I am not free just yet, as I'm going to Rhode Island and New Hampshire for like...11 days. I leave on Sunday. I'm looking forward to it and everything and it's not like this should be freaking me out as much as it is seeing as it happens EVERY YEAR, but like...it's really freaking me out. I HAVE BECOME SO DEPENDENT ON CERTAIN INTERNET FRIENDS OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF MONTHS (has it even been that long?) AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'LL DO WITHOUT LIVEJOURNAL IN GENERAL. D:

Also, I realised the other day that in the Disney fandom, I pretty much never make reaction posts? I always just end up reacting on everyone else's reaction posts and leaving it at that. I DON'T KNOW WHY THAT IS? But a whole bunch of things have happened now and I don't want to make some giant rambly post about EVERYTHING. So here's a really brief overview: TACKLEHUG! My top three favourite songs on LVATT are Much Better, World War III and Black Keys! I still cannot quite believe they're getting away with that implied 'bitch' in Poison Ivy! I'm going to see them in Manchester with [livejournal.com profile] thisissirius in November!

...I HAVE ALREADY RUN OUT OF THINGS TO SAY BUT I'M SURE THERE ARE MORE, IDK, TALK TO ME.

Also, if you have ever in your life thought, you know what I'd like to read? The bass player from Kings of Leon drunkenly hitting on Demi Lovato and then taking her to get a tattoo the next day and then fucking her in his bathroom, I can hook you up. The characterisation is weirdly perfect and they're all bickery and adorable and hot all at the same time. Knock Down The Door, NC-17. It even comes with fake gossip site articles and texts and Twitter updates which all sound SO LEGIT IT'S SCARY. I fucking love [livejournal.com profile] thepodsquad, you guys. (Also, it is INGRAINED IN MY BRAIN that Demi is a lesbian, but I totally bought this pairing, so this fic must have magical powers. Just sayin'.)

DISNEY STARS/MEMBERS OF KINGS OF LEON. It's the future.

EEEEW, CALEB

No, I'm joking. Except I'm not. I love him sometimes (read: Notion video) but every other time EW, CALEB.

Anyway. I AM SO EXCITED FOR NOVEMBER. WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A GOOD TIME. (And nothing is definite yet, but we may be getting better seats. I know someone who may be giving away semi-front row seats so... maybe. Don't get too excited because it might not happen but it MIGHT.)

WHY ARE YOU LEAVING AGAIN? THAT IS SO DEVESTATING TO ME D:

[identity profile] likecharity.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
SISSIIIIII I THOUGHT WE WERE MAKING PROGRESS, BB. Did you watch the video? IT MIGHT NOT HELP. BUT, NICK IS IN IT? That's always good, right??

!!! OMG. *tries not to get excited* *takes deep breaths* Okay. KEEP ME POSTED. I am excited either way anyway because it will be awesome. We will meet and have drinks and see the Jonas Brothers whether it is up close or from miles away, and IT WILL BE FUN.

UGH I DON'T KNOW. Honestly I really wish I didn't have to go, which is probably kinda bad seeing as it's a family holiday and everything, but that side of the family is always so full of dramaaaa and I'd rather be here talking to you guys. :(

[identity profile] thisissirius.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I AM APPREHENSIVE, OKAY. I MUST TAKE THINGS SLOW.

I KNOW, I KNOW. I am so ridiculously excited to go with you. We have been friends for what feels like forEVER and I will actually get to meet you in RL and go for drinks and watch the Jonas Brothers rocking out on a round stage and we can hit screaminf girl!fans and tell them to GTF away from us whilst we talk about hot the boys are. And scream BITCH during Poison Ivy.

(Which Jared totally dared Joe to do)

I WISH YOU COULD STAY. BUt these things have to be done, bb. BE STRONG.

[identity profile] likecharity.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
IT'S OKAY. I UNDERSTAND. I AM JUST AN IMPATIENT PERSON. But basically I just want you to be able to fully enjoy the awesomeness of this. ♥

DOESN'T IT FEEL LIKE IT'S BEEN FOREVER? It's been like a year, right? When was the Prince Caspian premiere, 'cause that was when we started texting...idek. I KIND OF CAN'T WAIT TO SCREAM 'BITCH' DURING POISON IVY, NGL. I'll feel bad if we're near kids, but like. IT HAS TO BE DONE.

(And omg I want fic where Joe is talking about how fooling around with Jared makes him feel all ~rebellious and he wants to BRANCH OUT and like, swear in a song or something, but Disney would never let him, and so they try to have SERIOUS DISCUSSIONS about HOW THEY COULD GET AROUND THAT, but keep getting distracted by sex.)

[identity profile] thisissirius.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
MAYBE I WILL WATCH IT. Maybe I won't tell you afterwards.

IT DOES. God even when we were new to talking and were on MSN all the time I felt like I'd known you forever ♥ OMG WE SHOULD. Never mind the children. I was doing it on Monday, haha, and the lady with the child was just laughing at me. I felt so good to be doing it :D Joe would have been proud of me.

(DON'T THINK THAT BY TALKING ABOUT IT I WILL WRITE IT.....


Haha, keep talking about it.)

[identity profile] likecharity.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
D: YOU'D BETTER TELL ME. Unless you watch it and hate it. Then...probably you shouldn't tell me. I'M DELICATE LIKE THAT.

Lolol that makes me feel better. I feel kind of stupid for being all THINK OF THE CHILDREN about it, but like, I'm still so shocked by the whole thing!! Joe totally would have been proud of you, though. You just KNOW he gets a thrill from it whenever people yell it out.

(It would just be another step in helping Joe ~rebel, see? And I'm kind of cracking up over the idea of Joe being all "Ooh! Maybe we could do it like Britney Spears with the whole 'if you seek Amy' thing, so we don't actually say the word," and Jared being like "If you seek who?" and Joe pronouncing it more slowly and Jared being like "You want me to fuck you?"...and then they get distracted for a while. BUT EVENTUALLY JARED SUGGESTS IMPLYING THE WORD. And then they trade blowjobs to celebrate their genius ideas Y/Y?)

[identity profile] thisissirius.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
HAHA. MAYBE. No, seriously... I am going to click this D:

DONTBE. We should think of the children. AND HOW MUCH WE DON'T CARE THAT WE ARE CORRUPTING THEM. He does. He rocks the fuck out, Jen, no lie. And when he thrusts that Mic out there... Nick rolls his eyes a little bit, but thinks it's hilarious. Kevin doesn';t get it, bless him.

(OMG STOP. This will be done, I swear to god, if I have to die to write it.)

[identity profile] thisissirius.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, I watched it muted because I can't watch a Nick/Caleb vid set to Black Keys.

OH sweet jesus, Jen. You are my fucking LULU and everything else that is amazing because you are just WTF. THAT IS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN AND I STILL THINK EW CALEB BUT NO. AMAZING.

I love it. Shit, that is so fucking good, excuse my language.

YOU ARE JUST - GOD, If I could make a vid half as good as that I would be happy.

[identity profile] likecharity.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Lol irl I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT STRUGGLE WITH THE MUSIC CHOICE. SORRY.

But eeeeeeeeee you liked it OMG that means SO MUCH COMING FROM YOU, SERIOUSLY. I AM GRINNING LIKE A CRAZY PERSON AUUUGH. I LOVE YOU. I LOVE YOU SFM. ♥

[identity profile] thisissirius.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Seriously, ANYTHING ELSE and I could have done it. ANYTHING. BUt ugh, even muted it is beautiful. I can't even describe it. WTF, CALEB. DNW YOU TO BE SO AMAZING, OKAY. I blame you and Hannah :'(

I was quite happy in my irrational dislike of him but now you're making me go '.... OH CALEB, ILU' and i do not appreciate that, so you are aware.

No, I jest. One day there will just be CALEB/NICK FIC SOMEWHERE. Because you guys have inspired me.

You are all so fabulous. Kings of Jonas is the best thing I have ever been a part of ♥

[identity profile] likecharity.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL, EXCEPT ALBL. ALBL IS SACRED. Even I couldn't have put it to ALBL. But Black Keys seemed to FIT and Hannah tempted me, so it happened.

It honestly makes me so happy that you're starting to...not LIKE him but...no longer DISLIKE him? And you can take all the time that you need, we're totally not trying to pressure you hahaha. BUT EEE I LOVE YOU FOR EVEN GIVING THIS A GO, SERIOUSLY. ♥

KINGS OF JONAS IS THE BEST.

[identity profile] thisissirius.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
.... If someone did something NIck/Caleb to ALBL I would have to kill them.

Haha I appreciate that you didn't ;)

(OMG I am being so ridiculous over this D:)

LOL. It is only a matter of time before his STUPID FACE makes me... No, I can't say SMILE, but it makes me... well, it's okay. I don';t even know what I'm SAYING.

YOU ARE WELCOME. Only for you guys would I do this.

[identity profile] littledivinity.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)
JENNIFER.

JENNIFER.

I...I AM ALMOST CRYING OVER THAT VIDEO. I HAVE...NEVER KNOWN ANYTHING SO BEAUTIFUL IN MY ENTIRE LIFE.

Holy crap. No seriously. No. Seriously. I love you so much for doing that. IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL AND AMAZING. I cannot even...how am I supposed to PROCESS THAT??? How????

It's so amazing.

[identity profile] likecharity.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
♥♥♥

I LOVE YOUUUUU.

I am so glad you liked it, you have no idea. IT WAS STRESSING ME OUT BY THE END BECAUSE I DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH NICK CLIPS. And then I found the golfing clips and there was a brief period of INTENSE JOY but then I realised I still had a whole bunch of empty space and auuuugh vidding is HARD.

But seriously. I know I made it, but it gave me feelings too. I UNDERSTAND.

[identity profile] littledivinity.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE YOU MANAGED IT!!!

I can't. Because there's SO little to work with, but the clips work SO WELL together. AND THEM IN THE KITCHEN TOGETHER. AND TECHNICALLY I KNOW THEY AREN'T TOGETHER. BUT IN MY HEAD THEY ARE???

AND CALEB SWIRLING THE WINE AND NICK PLAYING THE GUITAR IN BED. AND I KNOW THEY AREN'T TECHNICALLY TOGETHER...AND NOW I WANT TO WRITE FIC. OH GOD. IT GAVE ME FEELINGS ABOUT THE THIRD STORY IN THE NICK/CALEB TRILOGY.

I seriously cannot even tell you. I want to crawl inside this video and never leave it. It's my favourite.

[identity profile] likecharity.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
I AM SO GLAD YOU MENTIONED THE KITCHEN BIT BECAUSE THE KITCHEN BIT IS MY FAVOURITE. And what's weird is that it was a TOTAL ACCIDENT that when the Caleb clip cuts away, it looks like he's walking behind Nick. TOTAL ACCIDENT. ...I mean, I'm a really talented vidder and did that on purpose.

THE BED BIT GAVE ME HELL. BUT IT JUST HAD TO BE THERE. Seriously, so much of this gave me feelings, and needs for fic. Just the basic image of Nick sitting on the bed plucking away at the guitar while Caleb lies half under the covers with a glass of wine, listening. *dies*

But seriously, oh my goddd that means so much to me thank you FOREVER, I LOVE YOU. ♥

[identity profile] littledivinity.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)
YES YES YES! IT LOOKING LIKE CALEB IS WALKING BEHIND HIM. God, my heart almost EXPLODED. It almost exploded. It's just ... This video is perfection, Jenny. IT's perfect. I can't even deal with it.

...CALEB LISTENING. AND THINKING ABOUT...AND...hahaha, those are not tears in my eyes. THEY ARE NOT. Why do these two gets to me so bad??? I don't even get it.

Also, HI, you know what I should do? IIII should post my first Nick/Caleb fic on my writing journal so it's unlocked.

[identity profile] likecharity.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
It was meant to be like, Caleb teasing him and maybe there was someone else in the room and Caleb was re-telling some story that NICK FOUND EMBARRASSING but then Caleb said something nice and walked past and Nick looked happier idek. IT WAS A HAPPY ACCIDENT.

I DON'T KNOOOW. Why can't we set them up? Why does there have to be such an age difference and why does Disney have to exist? THERE IS JUST SO MUCH POTENTIAL.

YES YOU SHOULD. I was thinking that earlier, that it should be on there.

Also omg I have just been replying to comments like a crazy person but I SHOULD PROBABLY SIGN INTO MSN OR SOMETHING.

[identity profile] littledivinity.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
THE BEST OF ALL HAPPY ACCIDENTS!!!!

Hahahahaha. The idea of...oh man. Best thing of my life. "YOU TWO CRAZY KIDS, JUST GET TOGETHER AND WORK IT OUT, OKAY?" It would...be the best thing ever.

I WILL DO IT RIGHT NOW, ACTUALLY. WHILE I'M THINKING ABOUT IT. Otherwise I'll forget for real.

GET ONLINE NOW, BITCH. ...Sorry. Get online now, please, sweetie pie?

[identity profile] picturegames.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
....................you put things in my brain that i CANNOT GET OUT.

I just wanted you to know that.

Okay, also this probably makes me a bad fan but the only songs I've listened to on the album are 'paranoid', 'keep it real', 'black keys' and 'before the storm'....I like all those (except kind of for 'BtS), but I'm sort of afraid to listen to the rest!! In case it's bad, I mean.

oh wow, do not get me started on any more ships. I DO NOT NEED ANY MORE SHIPS.

[identity profile] likecharity.livejournal.com 2009-06-17 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
I LOVE DOING THAT TO PEOPLE.

I don't like Before The Storm. That and Don't Charge Me For The Crime are the only ones I tend to skip. But ooomg it's not bad, you should definitely listen to the rest. ESPECIALLY MUCH BETTER. MUCH BETTER IS AMAZING.

...but but. EVERYONE ALWAYS NEEDS MORE SHIPS. Even if they're totally cracked out??

[identity profile] picturegames.livejournal.com 2009-06-18 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
also, I just read that jared/demi fic, and it was AWESOME. I should probably go and write that on her journal...

[identity profile] likecharity.livejournal.com 2009-06-18 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
Yes! Do! She would really appreciate it, seeing as...it's such a rare pairing, obviously. XD

HEY JEN, REMEMBER HOW EVERYTHING TECHNOLOGICAL IN THE WORLD HATES ME?

MY INTERNET WILL NOT LET ME WATCH THIS VIDEO. I HAVE TRIED IT IN TWO DIFFERENT BROWERS AND IT JUST FREEZES UP AND I CAN'T GET PAST A FEW SECONDS OF IT, AND IT'S POSSIBLY THE MOST UNFAIR THING TO HAPPEN TO ME EVER.

*goes and cries in a corner*

[identity profile] likecharity.livejournal.com 2009-06-19 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
NO, WHAT?!!

FAIL, BEKAH'S INTERNET.

EDIT: ALSO, FAIL JENNY'S HTML. But hey it's on Youtube now? Hope this works! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60yaoPtqqs8)

Firstly, love your video =]
I've kind of had this dream since I was about 14, wherein myself and my friends fuck off Liverpool and haul our asses over to the deep south. And then, once we're there, we find perfection. It's not a well thought out plan perhaps, but it's a goal. The behind the scenes Paranoid video, KoL in general, totally make me even more desperate for that.
Secondly, just wanted to let you know, because it was a pretty awesome find, that there's currently a Kings Of Leon Special Fan's Magazine out, which I think is an NME thing, packed with interviews spanning from 03-09, some awesome photography and just bits & pieces and song meanings and such. There's also a quote from Nick J-
'My favourite Kings Of Leon song is 'Be Somebody. It has a great lift on the hook and creates an incredible mood that's perfect for driving. I just like the all-round general vibe of the song. It's incredible and motivating. Kings are a big inspiration for us'.
Sorry I possibly leave the longest comments ever.

Thank you so much!!

Aw, I know what you mean about wanting that kind of escape, like going to a totally new place and everything.

And ha, I bought that magazine just this morning!! It's so cool that the Nick quote was in there, I love it when they mention each other. ♥

oh God, the fanvid ♥ ♥ Nick. Caleb. ♥

I CANNOT STOP TALKING ABOUT NICK AND CALEB GETTING GAY MARRIED AND LIVING ON A CORN FARM IN IOWA WITH THEIR BABY CALLED COSTELLO.

corn farm in Iowa. I just.. aljhsjkgjhgcsujh !

how am I suppose to study for my exams with mental images like these?

DISNEY STARS/MEMBERS OF KINGS OF LEON. It's the future.

Yaaaay I'm glad you liked it!!

Hahaha everyone needs to get into this crossover thing. EXCEPT SORRY FOR THE DISTRACTION.
