So married

[spatz]

SO, inmyriadbits was watching X-Men when I got home. I sat down to watch Hugh Jackman in a cage fight, and ended up watching the whole movie. Y'know, as you do. (Damn, that boy is pretty.)

Then she made me a drink and we watched X2. (what? I'm easy!)

And then this conversation happened:

brainwashed!CYCLOPS: *shoots laser beams at Jean*
JEAN: *makes shield and breaks the dam. And her leg.*
SCOTT: *wakes up and dashes over* Jean, are you okay?
JEAN: I thought I'd lost you!
TWINS: *keel over laughing*

This may seem odd! But let me illustrate with a conversation from The Eagle:

ESCA: *appears to betray the dude who owns him as a slave*
MARCUS: *feels betrayed* I will kill you!
ESCA: *waits until bad guys are asleep*
ESCA: So, you wanted this golden eagle thing, right? This is our only chance, while they're asleep.
MARCUS: I thought I'd lost you....

I REST MY CASE.

Honey, there is no case to be made for Marcus/Esca. They left Marcus' child-bride out of the movie so as not to confuse the viewers about their love.

I WAS SO TORN OVER WHETHER TO RESPOND HERE OR ON LJ IT TOOK ME THIS LONG TO REPLY. ;)

Your point is valid! Lindsey and I didn't even discuss why we were laughing, it was so obvious. But there are a lot of sad slashers out there who have not seen The Eagle, and this goes out to them.

...none of my icons are quite gay enough for this post.
