Horror 101, Monday

It had been an incredibly long two weeks.

Not that Mitchell had suffered from the gremlins this weekend: he hadn't come back until late last night, and for some reason, the creatures - like most Fandom weirdness - had given him a wide berth upon sight.

He wasn't going to complain.

"I know you've all had a rough weekend," he started, "So I'm going to make a deal. If you feel the need to talk about what you've done or what's happened to you in the past couple of days, you can. If you don't, I've got a copy of the worst film ever made and a generous supply of tea and coffee."

A beat.

"Either way, I think we're covering horror well enough."

Another beat.

"And yes, Kate, everyone's encouraged to talk through the film. Come on."

This whole 'focusing on other people's problems' thing was getting a bit desperate on his part.

[[ ~~wait for the~~ ocd up! ]]

Like you survived the weekend. And want tea.

Mitchell's talking a bit, but it's certainly not a lecture. Also, tea. (Or coffee. He'd prefer the coffee.)

If you feel the need to share your experience from the weekend with the class, and how you managed to make it through.

Snag a cup of tea or coffee and watch Cemetary Snatchers From Beyond Space, that old classic.

And please, talk. Comment to one another. Make things nice and messy. Mitchell would like some merriment around right now ~~to distract himself~~.

Once they ping in!

Who's... retreating a bit after handing off instructions.

dsfkld;sfklk, new Being Human.

"The king is dead. Long live the king."

Hell of a place to take him, even if I saw it coming. (Also, this post brought to you by Len's new S2 Being Human icons)

Alex Karev

After the initial influx of gremlins, Alex had mostly stuck to his room, content to live off candy and whatever else he'd had in there. It wasn't like he'd been alone or anything, cranky as Effy might have been. Didn't bother him that much. It hadn't been that bad a weekend, all things considered.

Shut up.

Alex wasn't going to share his weekend (mostly because there was another person involved and sharing seemed like misstep) but he'd watch the movie, bad or not and allow himself some relaxation.

Chloe Saunders

Chloe was indeed here.

I really need to watch this show.

You so do.

Because any show that can manage a premise like 'a werewolf, a vampire and a ghost move into the same flat' and pull it off as awesomely as this deserves it. :D

... However it's making me have to sit on my spoilery squee every week now.

I will definitely check and see if I can find it online to download and watch then. :D

Chloe was still really sore from her adventures on Saturday, but she was currently staring at the movie in a kind of fascinated horror.

She couldn't believe someone had actually made this into a movie.

*drops off trailer links as an enticement*

Although you can always hit me up if you can't find it yourself!

/pimp

*grins* I might just do that when I get home from work. Especially now that I have a big portable external hard drive. :D

Jack Priest

Rose-the-bobcat had decided to follow Jack to class this morning, and he hadn't objected. Even as a fierce oversized housecat, she was good company.

Somehow, she managed to take up almost as much room on the couch as he did. He idly stroked her ears while he listened to Mitchell talk, grateful the man was keeping things simple today.

This was a horrible movie. It made the "special effects" in 1899 films look like masterworks, and Jack should know.

Rose stopped watching and went to quietly hunt invisible balls of dust about 10 minutes in.

... it's cruel to tell me just that line when I can't watch for almost 12 hours.

WOE.

About when it became clear the lead actor in the film was never going to lower his cape, Jack got bored enough to nudge Alex and whisper, "The kitty is Rose."

That was the funny part of the weekend. That was all right to talk about.

I could have been crueler.

I could, for example, also have used words like '17th century witch hunts', 'vampire-style execution', 'bricks' and 'fangs'.
