this story's too predictable [except for how this is really a post about foxes]

Thing I am deeply considering putting on my journal somewhere even though it totally doesn't relate to the content:

"They say all foxes are slightly allergic to linoleum, but it's cool to the paw - try it. They say my tail needs to be dry cleaned twice a month, but now it's fully detachable - see? They say our tree may never grow back, but one day, something will. Yes, these crackles are made of synthetic goose and these giblets come from artificial squab and even these apples look fake - but at least they've got stars on them. I guess my point is, we'll eat tonight, and we'll eat together. And even in this not particularly flattering light, you are without a doubt the five and a half most wonderful wild animals I've ever met in my life. So let's raise our boxes - to our survival. "
-The Fantastic Mr. Fox

WHICH, OKAY, DOES NOT TRANSLATE ALL THAT WELL IN TEXT BUT I JUST. See the movie you guys IT IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL MOMENT, I DON'T EVEN CARE IF YOU JUDGE ME. *WEEPS*

Also, things that are happening tonight:

-Sushi
-JDSKFJSKFHSDF OH MY FUCKING GOD FINISHING MY FUCKING YULETIDE I HAVE LESS THEN SIX HOURS AND LESS THEN 800 WORDS
-Probably another voice post on my way to coffeeshop for writing Yuletide (purpose: testing out new headphones)
-Working on that one thinger and starting that other thinger
-Sleep?

BUT REALLY THIS POST EXISTS SOLELY FOR ME TO QUOTE FANTASTIC MR. FOX AND FOR THIS PICTURE:



BABY FOXES. BABY. FUCKING. FOXES. JSDJFSDKFSDKF

HOW MANY TIMES DID I CRY DURING THAT MOVIE, I THINK MAYBE THREE.

Also how easy is it to see Eames as Mr. Fox and Arthur as the :| faced wife. ...what the fuck cuss, stop corrupting (more) children's novels.

BABY FOXES. ♥

I KNOW, I KNOW, I KEEP WANTING TO WRITE A FANTASTIC MR. FOX AU EXCEPT THAT LIKE. I COULD NEVER DO IT JUSTICE dkfjsdfdsf.

And I seriously, I just want to write odes and odes to Wes fucking Anderson for managing to stay true to the Dahl like that, because god love Tim Burton--and I do love Tim Burton, I do, I really do, but what he did with Charlie and the Chocolate Factory....I mean. I loved it, don't get me wrong, but it was very *him*, it was very Burton-fied, and it lacked that like...slightly-unsettling-but-also-deeply-warm voice Dahl had, and Fantastic Mr. Fox had it in spades. And maybe I'm biased, because I love Tim Burton but the way I feel about Wes Anderson is hard to explain without me actually FROTHING AT THE MOUTH IN MAD PASSIONATE ADORATION, so.

...IN CONCLUSION BABY FOXES FJSDLKFJSDF

LOL IT WOULD BE SO EPIC, THOUGH. YUSUF AS THE BADGER AND COBB AS THEIR KID AND POSSIBLY ARIADNE AS THE PERFECT COUSIN WHO COMES TO VISIT? Oh my god, why.

You're so right, though. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory... it was what it was, but it wasn't Dahl. It was Burton, and I love Burton, but when I watch a Dahl story I want it to be COMPLETELY DAHL, and somehow Wes Anderson made it completely Dahl AND him at the same time. With, I don't know, all those Wes touches. The fonts and the internal monologuing and oh my god, I loved it so much. I actually just bought it yesterday for my roommate for Christmas.

I have loved baby foxes since the Fox and the Hound. My childhood, it is full of Disney. <3 Those babies are so cute! I'm just waiting for my sis to come home so I can watch that movie with her. :D

It occurs to me that the Fox and the Hound would be a great Arthur/Eames story. Except they are both a bit of the Fox and Cobb is the hound. But it's workable.

I haven't seen that movie yet. I really should because I fucking love The Fantastic Mr Fox (and Roald Dahl in general, let's be honest here)and I remember thinking the trailers looked pretty good.

ALSO BABY FOXES. <3

My brain is odd. For a moment, I was thinking "Wait, has she spawned yet another story idea where Eames and/or Arthur is a kitsune? She has too many to do already!"

Your job involves baby foxes?!

brb re-evaluating my life choices.

Haha, I work at a wildlife rehabilitation center. In the summer we take care of all kinds of baby animals. Baby foxes and baby raccoons are ridiculously adorable. It's a lot of fun, but it doesn't pay much if at all.

OMG! LITTLE BABY FOXES--THEY ARE SO TINY. Look at the yawn. Look at the closed eyes..

Okay, off to finish this paper and stop squeeing at tiny animals.
And I'll def watch the fantastic Mr. Fox now--that's a great quote.
