PROBABLY NOT, SADLY. Hnnnnnng, a gun as well, I WOULD EXPLODE. There is that video, though, is it the Love Is A Deserter one? *checks* Yeah, here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgjXp3fIFLI) around 2:40, where she's standing on a bed in a t-shirt and tiny shorts and starts to lift her t-shirt up? I was really shocked when I saw that, but then again, it is AWFUL quality and they've used that weird morphing effect, so she was clearly still a bit shy about it.
I'm slightly struggling to make words now because a) hnnnnnnnng, and b) listening to that song just made me realise something I've never noticed before - there's that line "got me where you want me again" which is INTERESTING because in Jamie's song as Fuji, 'Saints Preserve Us', there's the repeated lines 'got you where I want you' and 'got me where you want me'. And I always figured that song was about Alison in some way because it was probably written shortly after meeting her and there's the line 'soft like moss, my dripping heart', which...yeah. I can't believe I never noticed that before.
ANYWAY. That's a good point about the contradictive nature of the stage persona/true self thing. I don't really get that. It is really interesting though - Jamie's said that he thinks she's most like herself onstage, too, hasn't he? And that when he first saw her perform it seemed like she was totally herself, while talking to her offstage it seemed like she was playing a part. So interesting, actually, that he could pick that up in basically their first interactions, when surely he had no idea of who she truly was or anything like that.
I played around with writing the whole Jack-watching idea and it just IS NOT WORKING, because it either has to be kind of tongue-in-cheek (to acknowledge the weirdness of it all) which doesn't really fit with the three of them, or deadly serious (which makes it hard to explain how they found themselves in that position in the first place). It sucks, because it is SUCH A HOT THING TO IMAGINE.
