this time when i talk, it's not real

[hardparade]

Look at me, updating about the Narnia cast on New Year's Eve. TYPICAL.

Half an hour before midnight, even. I should probably get a life sometime in 2011.

But for now, look! There's new stuff.

Can we talk about how hard I'm shipping Ben/Will P. now? I DIDN'T MEAN FOR THIS TO HAPPEN but Ben is so adorable whenever he talks about him, he just GUSHES. He saw School of Comedy before it was even commissioned for a series—"I always knew he was brilliant." And lmao the voice he puts on imitating him. And also "he just deserves it, because he's such a lovely boy." HE'S SUCH A LOVELY BOY. Bennn.

Firstly, his twitchy nose at the beginning of this is adorable. Secondly, loling at the way he says Will P. is 'getting very big', like he's a toddler or something. And finally, SERIOUSLY loling at his "I could practice my old voice...I sound like Alan Bennett." Benitooo.

I'M SO GLAD THERE'S A QUIZ THIS TIME TOO. The ridiculous T4 quiz was like, the best part of the Prince Caspian promotion. This one is a quiz about various things to do with the Dawn Treader, and Skandar is much more cheerful than in other recent interviews. I like how he gets right in there with "What do we get if we win?" and "Where did you find this?!", and demanding "Define a sheet! How big's a sheet?" Willmo would be proud. ♥ The way he and Georgie look at each other during the beeswax question is adorbs, too. And I like that Georgie guesses 42 for one of her answers. Hitchhiker's Guide references, intentional or not, make me happy. Also, her "Dude, I was WELL nice to you, what," CRACKED ME UP. (I also haven't heard people say 'well' to mean 'very' since I was at school. It's so northern! ~Memories.)

ALSO GEORGIE AND WILL P. WERE ON BLUE PETER. I can't find a video yet, but they did a webchat, in which they were cute:

ApatiteTubaSinger asks: Who is the funniest person on set?
Georgie says: Will!
Will: No, no it's Ben Barnes! Not me.
Georgie: Will is the funniest person I've ever met!
Will: It's all too much! LOL

Aside from the obvious Georgie/Will P. cuteness of this, I also really love Will saying Ben is the funniest. ♥

Georgie: By the way I have been loving the nicknames on the boards. If I had one I would want to be OwlfaceMattressNumberhead.

AHAHA WHAT. Georgie, you delightful weirdo.

And there are some screencaps:




I love how Georgie's just like "cat :)" I would be too.


There should be some more Georgie/Will P. on the kink meme. I think the problem is that it seems like they're too ridiculously sweet to be kinky...but there should really be some sort of adorably-kinky stuff going on.


She's just so CUTE, you guys. I can't.



Aaaand I leave you with another random LWW era gif:



Happy New Year, you guys. :)

Happy New Year to you, too :)

Those pictures of Georgie and Will are so adorable. Bless ♥

I'm hopeful about seeing Ben in The Silver Chair, because there's a little bit where Caspian's young again, so cameo! *crosses fingers*

I'm seriously excited about seeing a whole film of nice!Eustace! If they don't make The Silver Chair next I'll be inconsolable :(

(LOL I'm in on my own on New Year's Eve too. There's no shame in it. New Year's Eve is overrated :D)

[likecharity.livejournal.com]

They are, aren't they? They're adorable even when they're not really doing anything.

Yeah, he has mentioned flashbacks! I reeeally hope they make it, too.

(I'm glad I'm not the only one! Who was in on my own, and also who thinks it's overrated. XD)

[sheisagentleman.livejournal.com]

Happy new year :D

Also, YOU GEORGIE ILU SFM. And, yes, The Silver Chair needs to be a film, I would die if it doesn't.

[likecharity.livejournal.com]

:)

AGREED.

[alexi-lupin.livejournal.com]

EEEE BEN DESCRIBING WILL P :D

omg I'm with Skandar, I'd have been all "HOW BIG IS A SHEET?"

GEORGIE ♥

[likecharity.livejournal.com]

SO CUTE. "HE'S SUCH A LOVELY BOY."

Lol ikr, like they're somehow supposed to know what gold leaf is measured in.

[likecharity.livejournal.com]

Will was even worse, haha. It's so funny though. And seriously, if they put a cat next to you when you're supposed to be doing an interview, how are you NOT going to play with it? So cute.

Haha I know!! I didn't notice, somehow, while I was making the gif (I was busy trying to work out wtf Skandar and Georgie are doing, I guess) but then when I posted it I was like LOL WILL'S LEGS ARE JUST RANDOMLY JIGGLING.

Happy New Year! ^__^

[likecharity.livejournal.com]

You too! :)

Happy New Year, y'all.

[iamshunpike.livejournal.com]

Check the gate! WASSUP? Check the gate! SHOW ME WHATCHA GOT.

I was literally making "awwwww" noises out loud at those photos of Georgie and Will P. And I am sure that there's some kind of backstory for the Owl Face Mattress Number Head bit. Perhaps it is a James Thing. I feel like it must be.

Will: It's all too much! LOL

I like that Will gives "LOL" its proper capitalization, as opposed to just typing "lol". HE WOULD.
His voice really shows through in that one line.

PLUS this gives us a little bit of reference for if we want them to be instant-messaging in fanfic. How would they write? LIKE THIS.
Do you have the rest of the webchat? Gah, I would love to read it.

Flashback! I remember my Old School Harry Potter fan days. I used to get soooo geared up when I heard that the HP cast or else J. K. Rowling was going to do a chat with BBC Newsround (or whatever it is). and then I'd end up not logging on and completely forgetting about it.

That was back when people still got excited at the novelty of it all, whenever they heard the words "The Internet". And now they don't. The kids of our generation's marriages/bus-stop screws will be born into a world where ~teh intarwebz~ is just a granted, given part of everyday life. I FEEL A LITTLE OLD NOW OK.

And that GIF! That GIF! The older two are just playing it cool: Will standing nonchalantly, looking like Tommy Lee Jones,



and Anna's flipping her hair aside very casually.

...Now I want Men in Black crossover fanfiction. I don't care how it works! IT HAS TO HAPPEN.

Re: Happy New Year, y'all.

[likecharity.livejournal.com]

Knowing Georgie, it's quite possible there IS no explanation, and it was just the first thing to come to mind. But I do like the idea of it being a James thing. I think I'm starting to reeeally belatedly ship them, you know.

Agh, I totally meant to include the link to the rest of the webchat! It's here (http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/mbcbbc/NF11874762?thread=7901169). :) ALSO RE: INTERNET NOSTALGIA, THINGS LIKE THAT ALWAYS MAKE ME FEEL OLD. STOP.

Lmao Men in Black THAT IS TOTALLY HOW I'M SEEING IT NOW. Will's ridiculous jiggling legs sort of ruin it a bit though.

Re: Happy New Year, y'all.

[iamshunpike.livejournal.com]

You are??? THEY ARE ADORABLE. Here is what you must do:

1. Go to tumnuslucy_fans, skip back to the older entries. More than half of that comm is composed of J/G excellence.
2. I made a very, very incomplete list of the J/G fic in existence: CHECK IT OUT.
3. Read anyyyyyything by tattooedsiren or springfall_kg, who are the BNFs of this ship's corner of fandom...which is dormant/dead at this point. *sniffs into a handkerchief* Dear God, it's sad. D:

IF ONLY YOU HAD BEEN THERE AT THE BEGINNING. YOU WOULD HAVE MADE IT A POPULAR SHIP AND IT WOULD HAVE DIED LESS QUICKLY.

Men in Black: is it something that you like? Both as a person and as someone English. I DON'T KNOW IF ENGLISH PEOPLE LOVE THE CLASSICS, OKAY. BECAUSE, THEY ARE CLASSICS TO US, BUT DOES THE REST OF THE WORLD KNOW OF THEM???? NO. YES? I DON'T KNOWWW.

Re: Happy New Year, y'all.

[likecharity.livejournal.com]

THANK YOU FOR THIS, now I know what I'm doing next time I get stuck while writing fic.

I am aware of Men In Black, but I'm not like, a particular fan, lol.

Re: Happy New Year, y'all.

[iamshunpike.livejournal.com]

I SHALL CONVERT YOU >:B

[sagee-x3.livejournal.com]

Happy New Year :)

AWWW BEN TALKING ABOUT WILL P. And, I almost forgot how competitive Skandar gets at quiz like things. It's adorable.

[likecharity.livejournal.com]

You too! :D

It's so sweet! Both of those things. XD

[harmonyalr.livejournal.com]

Happy New Year!!

I will not ship Ben & Will P-but here I am doing it :) Not that they are going to userp my Ben/Skandar anytime soon, but Ben is soooo sweet about Will P. Why couldn't they do PR with all 4 of them dangit! I so want to see how they are together, the only thing I've seen was that horrible vid of the whole group, which was too far away & from an odd angle. It's so odd to me that Ben's interviews are him alone.

Ok so I was wandering around looking for vids that I hadn't seen & stumbled upon one, I'd seen it before, but a comment left had me scrambling to look at all the others too. The vids of Georgie/Skandar/WIll, there are I think 2 different ones with all 3 of them. (Then there were several of Georgie/Skandar and at least one of Georgie/WIll.) But anyway, my quadruple check is from the trio interview, like this one:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04Z5HodtgrU&feature=related

The comments are saying that Georgie is wearing Skandar's jacket-is she? I don't remember any interviews of the trio or the two of them, in those outfits with Skandar in the suit jacket & Georgie without, the other interviews they seem to be in different outfits-or at least Georgie is. Wishful thinking? Making me ship them even more? Yes! Just the thought of her being cold & Skandar going, 'here, you can wear my jacket' alkfjjfjaljjaf & her rolling up the sleeves cause they are too long & trying to discreetly sniff the collar. Dang-I'm so shipping Skandar with everyone!

Back to the KinkMeme! That is so awesome btw!

[likecharity.livejournal.com]

You too!

I definitely ship Ben/Skandar more, but it's hard to ignore how sweet Ben always is about Will P. And how they wanted to keep each other.

I'm still so annoyed about the lack of all-four-of-them press, or even interviews where they split the four into pairs. SIGH.

I didn't catch the thing about the jacket! It would be ADORABLE if that were true. I don't know though - it could just be her own blazer, you know? It doesn't look that big on her, but she and Skandar aren't really that different in size so it's hard to say. We'd only know for sure if we saw him wearing the jacket in something else from the same day, I suppose.

I'm totally shipping Skandar with everyone lately, too.

:D

[alice-pike.livejournal.com]

Ooh, this is the first time I've seen press with all three of them (yes, I'm super behind on EVERYTHING) and there are so many things I love about that interview. However, I also hadn't yet actually seen any live interviews with Georgie, so the one thing that really struck me here was her voice. Well, that, and HER CRAZY SEX HAIR. WHY DOES SHE ALWAYS HAVE SEX HAIR?! SHE'S LIKE, WHAT, 15? Good God, arrest me now.

[likecharity.livejournal.com]

SERIOUSLY, HER VOICE AND HER SEX HAIR. SO INAPPROPRIATE.

[likecharity.livejournal.com]

I'M TOO LATE AREN'T I but I hope you did go see Dawn Treader. That would absolutely have been the right life decision.

[likecharity.livejournal.com]

Is that the one where he imitates an otter? THAT WAS SUCH AN ADORABLE INTERVIEW and they did seem to really click.

[likecharity.livejournal.com]

This (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmW6xmRXwns) is the one I'm talking about, the otter bit is at 10:00ish?

[alice-pike.livejournal.com]

I'm just getting to these videos now (I'm so behind on watching the promotion stuff--these are seriously the only videos/interviews/pictures I've seen) and I LOVE THIS CAST JUST AS MUCH AS EVER. Although Ben is still not attractive to me (lolz) I can't help but SHIP HIM WITH EVERYONE. Skandar, Will P, Georgie--whoever! Narnia is quickly becoming my next Percy Jackson, wherein I ship EVERYONE/EVERYONE. Skandar/Will P? Never thought of it until I saw that interview link in the comments, but yeah, I'm shipping it. And now that Georgie's older and we get Will P, there are so many possibilities.

Also, I love that quiz. Willmo would be proud about the "define a sheet" thing. And Will P's "LOL" and those pictures of him and Georgie, holy shit. Are you the one who requested kinky Georgie/Will P? 'Cause that NEEDS TO HAPPEN. They're too cute not to be kinky.

AHH OMG I AM SO LATE TO THIS PARTY. :(

[likecharity.livejournal.com]

OMG WHAT you need to catch up. :P

I'm glad you're shipping Ben with everyone (ME TOO, SERIOUSLY) despite not being attracted to him (I want to say 'yet'). And yeah, it's like now that Georgie's just a little bit older, there's this whole new world of shipping opportunities.

YES THAT WAS ME. I mean, there needs to be aaaall the adorably fluff about them, but also some kink too. Because.

Don't worry, there's still time to join in. ♥
