I AM THE MOST LATE TO THE PARTY, BUT I HAVE FINALLY WATCHED THE EAGLE.

HOW DOES THIS MOVIE EXIST IN REAL LIFE?


BRB READING EVERY MARCUS/ESCA FIC ON AO3.

HAVE YOU READ THE BOOK?

Re: fic, anything and everything by Sineala.

I HAVE NOT, but apparently I need to!

You do. You really, really do. It's a completely different dynamic from in the movie (in the book they pretty much love each other right off the bat), but oh gosh, so much squishy FEELINGS and love and loyalty and did I mention the squishy FEELINGS. The words "I am the centurion's hound, to lie at the centurion's feet" were uttered, and that was near the BEGINNING of their relationship, so y'know, it only got steadily more fabulously gay as they went along XD

I posted a few snippets on a post of robanybody's way way back, you can go see if you want. SO MUCH SQUISHY FEELINGS.: http://robanybody.livejournal.com/517792.html?thread=13891744#t13891744 (http://robanybody.livejournal.com/517792.html?thread=13891744#t13891744)

If you wrote some Marcus/Esca, it'd be just sdfasdfadfdfdf. Also I'm one of the many people who is patiently waiting for 'Bylines' to be updated. Also, helenish wrote some fantastic Marcus/Esca which I recommend wholeheartedly to anyone interested.

Bylines is on my to-do list, I swear!

I haven't updated for a long time but click on the link to swingset's AU lists; they have a lot of recs.

Whoo, thanks!

right, how is this actually a canon? Jamie Bell + Channing Tatum's Sexual Shame? shipping it x 1000000.

When Marcus says, "I thought I'd lost you," I about died.

BRB LAUGHING AT YOU FOREVER. (PS, MissP's fic is pretty much fantastic.)

STFU I COULD NEVER FIND A COPY TO WATCH WHEN I WANTED TO WATCH IT. :(((((

[identity profile] thepouncer.livejournal.com 2013-07-01 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
That was my reaction. I mean, it's real canon slavefic! How?

[identity profile] foxxcub.livejournal.com 2013-07-01 01:36 pm (UTC)(link)
It is literally a blueprint for every slave AU.

[identity profile] godofwine.livejournal.com 2013-07-01 06:47 am (UTC)(link)
I have read them all. There are woefully few of them. :'(

[identity profile] foxxcub.livejournal.com 2013-07-01 01:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Any particular favorites??

[identity profile] misspamela.livejournal.com 2013-07-01 11:03 am (UTC)(link)
LOLOLOLOL. WELCOME.

You have seen my summary, yes?

[identity profile] foxxcub.livejournal.com 2013-07-01 01:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I BELIEVE SO, YES, LOL, but you should link me again because I think it will be even better now.

I mean, the fact that Marcus literally tells off a senator at the end for shit-talking his boyfriend, and then Esca gives this "yeah my boyfriend will kick your ass" smirk is just a;dfsdkg;d.

I am reading the Dead Poets Society AU and dying.

[identity profile] bathsweaver.livejournal.com 2013-07-04 04:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Where and what AU is this?

(Hi, will be rewatching The Eagle this 4th of July, all your fault)

Oh my GOD. I just.

In the name of incoherent feels solidarity, my Eagle tag is here (https://pinboard.in/u:bathsweaver/t:eotn). I don't presume to have bookmarked any fic you haven't come across on your own, but.

Oh my GOD. ::flails::

Now I feel the need to rewatch - I haven't watched it since it came out in the cinema. Basically, there is no subtext in this film. It's alllll text.

[identity profile] foxxcub.livejournal.com 2013-07-01 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I can't believe there's an actual, non-ironic where Marcus looks earnestly at Esca and says, "I thought I'd lost you."
