HELLO, LIVEJOURNAL, HOW NICE TO SEE YOU UP AND RUNNING AGAIN. *Shakes fist* It had better keep it together for the rest of the afternoon, or we are going to have words.

Seriously, you guys, I am having a day, a day full of the stomach flu and also the stomach flu. WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME, STOMACH. We are in a cease-fire right this moment, and I am hoping it lasts long enough for me to make it to the deli and get some matzo ball soup.

It will not be as good as mine, of course, but beggars cannot be choosers.

ANYWAY, I AM HERE TO SAY A COUPLE OF QUICK THINGS ABOUT MONDAY'S HAWAII FIVE-0, complete with screencaps from midnight_road, whose brilliance I would not have discovered without thegrrrl2002's last post. THANK YOU GUYS; YOU SAVED THE INTERNET FROM MY TERRIBLE SCREENSHOTS WITH THE LITTLE CLICKY BAR STILL IN THEM BECAUSE I AM BAD AT EVERYTHING ♥



THING THE FIRST:



IF ALEX O'LOUGHLIN COULD JUST BE WET AND MAKING THE BAMF-FACE FROM THAT ANGLE FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE, THAT WOULD BE AWESOME. Seriously, you guys, look at the way that shirt clings to him. Look at it. And then there's the wet hair curling at the back of his neck and displaced a little and dripping down his neck and hnnnnnnng, I think you guys all probably know about my soaked kink by now but H to the N to the motherfucking NNNNNG, for real.

AND THEN, FOR YOUR VIEWING PLEASURE, WE HAVE SCOTTY CAAN'S MOTHERFUCKING SHOULDERS, SERIOUSLY, DO THEY JUST PAINT HIM INTO WARDROBE, IS HE LIKE OLIVIA NEWTON JOHN WITH THE PANTS IN GREASE WHERE THEY LITERALLY SEW HIM INTO THESE SHIRTS, OH MY GOD. Look at his arms, you guys. Look at his hands, dgdjghd and I love how Steve is dripping and looking a little smaller than usual for it, with everything clinging like that, and Danny's all puffed up and pissed off next to him, THIS CAP IS MY HAPPY PLACE THE END.

THING THE SECOND:



Okay, this is just one of the many wounded angry faces McGarrett sports in this episode, and I am not complaining. O'Lough is getting good at that, and the Epic Manpain plotline is not one I object to, and while I'm still kind of waiting for Mark Dacascos to say THE SECRET INGREDIENT IS ME KILLING YOUR FAMILY, I can throw down with this storyline.

Yes, that was a Bobby Flay joke. See what I did there? Do you see?

HOWEVER. While I do not object to the uptick of Steve's wounded angry faces (I honest to god just picked a random one out of the entire queue available in 1.19 alone), we do...need to talk...about the dialogue. Because while I understand that it is very painful and I respect that, I do, if you're going to spend that much time repeating the phrase "man who killed my father," there's only one acceptable way to do it. Repeat after me, Steven:

Hello. My name is Steve McGarrett. You killed my father. Prepare to die.

WHATEVER GUYS, DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT, IT'S STILL BETTER THAN 'SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND' AND WE ALL KNOW IT.

GNH............. NO. NO I WILL NOT SUCCUMB TO 50.

BUT GNH. THAT IS A WELL FITTED SHIRT.

D: YOUR STOMACH. MATZO BALL MAGIC ACTIVATE ETC.

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

GOING TO GET SOUP. WHEN I RETURN, I WILL BE DEMONSTRATING TO YOU HOW WELL SCOTTY CAAN WEARS A SHIRT. FOR SCIENCE, NUT. FOR SCIENCE.

[austen.livejournal.com]

I COULDN'T BELIEVE STEVE WENT THERE WITH THE "AMERICAN PROVERB". AND I STILL CAN'T.

ALSO: WHO in wardrobe is responsible for picking out the sizes in Caan's dress shirts? ARE HIS SHOULDERS JUST TOO BIG FOR ALL CLOTHES?

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

I KNOW. I KNOW. SO MANY FACES I MADE AT THE SCREEN. SO MANY.

THERE IS NO FABRIC THAT CAN CONTAIN HIM. IT IS THE ONLY EXPLANATION.

Either that or whoever is in charge of his wardrobe loves me and wants me to be happy.

[fic-kitty.livejournal.com]

AHAHAH Yessss.

I seriously have a little bit of trouble taking the Wo Fat storyline seriously (for all that it is totally srs bsns) because I am SUCH A HUGE IRON CHEF FAAAAN and Mark Dacascos is GOD SO CAMPY on it.

ALLEZ CUISINE INDEED, MARK.

Also that Steve screencap? EPIC. THE EYES. THE CRAZY CRAZY EYES.

I heart Steve's manpain.

[stele3.insanejournal.com (from livejournal.com)]

I had forgotten that he was on this show until he sat down across from Steve in the restaurant, and then all I could think of was that episode of Iron Chef when they revealed the secret ingredient and it was peanuts and he bellowed, "PEANUTS" in this super-dramatic voice.

It didn't help that I was drunk and half-asleep when I watched that episode. I laaaaaaughed forever, man, it was epic. PEANUTS.

[viennajones.livejournal.com]

lkadjsfklasdf. I hate Livejournal. It's ruined my evening.

Would you share that happy place with me for a bit? *_____*

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

You are welcome in that happy place whenever you like :D

[thegrrrl2002.livejournal.com]

Giant, logo-free screencaps are a thing of beauty, aren't they? I can get lost browsing through them. I almost used that first cap you posted because nnnngh, yes, wet Steve, with the little curls at the back of his neck, that will never not be hot.

SERIOUSLY, DO THEY JUST PAINT HIM INTO WARDROBE,

I'm thinking YES. Or maybe buttoning his shirts is like lacing a woman into a corset from back in the day where women did those things.

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

SUCH BEAUTY, OH MY GOD.

...oh my god now I am thinking about Scotty Caan in a corset why do you do these things to me

[puckling.livejournal.com]

Hello. My name is Steve McGarrett. You killed my father. Prepare to die.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORD.

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

:DDDDDDDD

[onthecount.livejournal.com]

I JUST NOTICED THIS BUT NOW I CAN'T NOT NOTICE IT. I don't know if you've ever seen the movie Tekkon Kinkreet (and if you haven't I RECOMMEND WATCHING IT) but these are the police officers in that film, maybe you will notice a resemblance:

[seeingrightly.livejournal.com]

I haven't seen this movie but oh my god dying of lulz right now

[flynn-boyant.livejournal.com]

waiting for Mark Dacascos to say THE SECRET INGREDIENT IS ME KILLING YOUR FAMILY

Oh, good it's not just me!
I also half-expect him to just backflip his way into all his scenes, like the opening of IRON CHEF!America.


The UNF
The MANPAIN
The Chairman being EBIL


I'm not sure what else you really need in life. Besides Danno bringing you some soup, because he totally WOULD. He can mother hen people like a BAMF (I'm not sure that made sense yet it feels like a valid observation, thus I am sticking with it!)


*pats*
Take care! I hope you feel better soon!

*goes back to staring at the pretty*

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

I actually feel much better now, chicken soup heals all ills because it is the lifeblood of my people etc etc, but OH MY GOD I AM SO WITH YOU ON DANNY THE MOTHER HEN. I want all of those stories. All of them. Foreverrrrrrr

[winslow-arizona.livejournal.com]

I...I need to start watching this show, don't I.

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

YOU DO. It's, look, the plotlines are laughably absurd, no one writing it understands how the law works, much of the dialogue is ridiculous, it is on all accounts a terrible show. BUT it also somehow manages to have complex characters and really interesting relationships between said complex characters and an amazing cast and more hoyay that you can shake a stick at. WORTH IT.

[hermette.livejournal.com]

I APPROVE OF THIS POST.








IN MY PANTS.

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

I APPROVE OF YOU, HERE, THERE, AND EVERYWHERRRRRRRRE ♥

[kleat.livejournal.com]

Oh MY GOD. Ok. So here's the truth. I haven't watched Hawai 5-0 yet because, well because I have a huge (but useless because I'm not doing an MBA but I paid for it so I will do well) exam Friday so I'm not supposed to be watching series. So I stuck to ones I wouldn't really like too much right? For recreation? Such as, The Good Wife and Harry's Law. But. But it TURNS OUT I LOVE THEM. But that's beside the point.

My point: I was saving Five-0 for later (i.e. Sunday). But see, you have a habit of getting me to read fic for fandoms I'm not in (i.e. Inception and Five-0). So. I read your fics. And I always always thought Danny? Was the blond guy... and Steve McGarret, was the brun (because brunette for a guy sounds wrong? FRENCH HAS GENDERS IN PLACES ENGLISH DOESN'T AND IT CONFUSES MY BRAIN). Anyways. I... don't know how I feel. I am ashamed. DEEPLY, DEEPLY ASHAMED.

[kleat.livejournal.com]

Oh yes and the worst part? I don't mistake the actors; I know exactly who Scotty Caan and Alex O'Loughlin are. I just confused their roles. OH MY GOD. (I will get over my stupidity one day). (hopefully).

[iam-space.livejournal.com]

I have long thought that this fandom needs the Princess Bride AU - And I wiffle-waffle between the line you quoted WHICH FITS SO BEAUTIFULLY and Danno saying "My Steven will save me."
What a conundrum, eh?

Hope your tummy feels better. <3

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

...you have...inadvertently done...a terrible thing. Oh, god, an extremely terrible thing, I am blaming you for it, oh my god why would you say that oh my god you didn't leave me with any choice oh my god I think I love you or hate you I CANNOT DECIDE.

THE CHAOS, YOU HAVE WROUGHT IT

[mecurtin.livejournal.com]

Is there a good cap in there of their precious FACES when Psychic Kitty or whatev talks about meeting her True Love?

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

CHECK OUT midnight_road's post :D

[mecurtin.livejournal.com]

ps also if you haven't seen it already I posted a documentation of Alex's tattoos (http://community.livejournal.com/hawaiifive_0_tv/230218.html). FOR SCIENCE.

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

KDSFHDSJFHJKD AMAZING :D :D :D

[regicidaldwarf.livejournal.com]

So I was reading this post, nodding along, UNF yes, Steve McGarret soaked and unhappy, UNF Scotty Cann's shoulders, yes, yes, epic manpain, then I got to:

THE SECRET INGREDIENT IS ME KILLING YOUR FAMILY

AND BEGAN CACKLING FOR A GOOD STRAIGHT MINUTE. I THINK I SCARED MY PETS.

Thanks for that.

Also, FEEL BETTER. :<<

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

IT IS HARD FOR ME NOT TO THINK OF HIM SAYING THAT. IT IS REALLY HARD.

And ty, bb! I actually feel much better now, the soup helped loads :D

[jtsbbsps-dk.livejournal.com]

Hello. My name is Steve McGarrett. You killed my father. Prepare to die. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! xDD THIS! THIS SO MUCH! Seriously, the Princess Bride has the answer to EVERYTHING *GRINS*

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

ALL ROADS LEAD TO ANKH-MORPORK THE PRINCESS BRIDE :D

[sirona-gs.livejournal.com]

YES. THIS. Steve's hair is really getting longer now that he doesn't have to buzz it short all the time, and the curl at the back of his neck is completely hypnotising and it draws my eye like a shiny shiny thing.

Consequently, my happy place is rapidly becoming this: Early evening, the humidity just starting to subside, the mild breeze through the open doors cool on bare skin pressed together. Danny sprawls on Steve's sofa, eyes heavy-lidded in content, absentmindedly twisting the silky locks at Steve's nape around his fingers, knuckles brushing the soft skin underneath. Steve's weight is heavy over him, pressing him into the worn cushions as he pillows his head on Danny's shoulder, arms curled loosely around Danny's body, palms tucked under his waist.

Steve dozes, drifting in and out of sleep, losing himself in the moment, Danny's warm, smooth, delicious-smelling skin under his cheek, the imprint of Steve's lips branded on every inch. Steve humms lightly under his breath with every exhale, indescribably comfortable, warm and safe and happy as he listens to Danny's heartbeat, thudthud, thudthud, just them and the breeze and the ocean. /sappy sigh

dskfdskfskjf oh my god bb my happiest of places, you have found it ♥ ♥ ♥

[illian.livejournal.com]

Or not have words, as the case may be!

I hope you feel better soon.

Hnnngh @ picture. You'd almost think they were nearly the same height!

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

I feel much better now, thank you muchly :D

AND HNNNNG INDEED. How those shoulders, Scotty, how.

[gunslingaaahhh.livejournal.com]

HGJKHGKJHDSKLHSDL LJ BEING DOWN EARLIER WAS PISSING ME OFF SOMETHIGN RIGHTEOUS. IT APPEARS TO HAVE GOTTEN THE MEMO.

WHAT DELISH CAPS YOU HAVE THERE, MADAME.

DUDE, THE CHAIRMAN NEEDS TO SAY THAT IRL. AND BY IRL I MEAN IN THE SHOW. HOW HILARIOUS?! ID PROBS DIE. AND HE'D DO IT BAD-KUNG-FU-MOVIE STYLE HDJGHKLADSHGDALKHG YES.

PS I HATE BOBBY FLAY >:| IDK WHAT IT IS, W/ THE GRILLING AND THE TEQUILA AND LETS MAKE THINGS OUTSIDE.

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

I ALSO HATE BOBBY FLAY. BECAUSE HE IS A GIGANTIC ASSHOLE. I HATE ALL OF HIS SHOWS AND ALSO HIS FACE. But I see no reason not to make jokes about/at his expense :D

[queenklu.livejournal.com]

90% of me commenting is so I can whip out my Princess Bride icon. TADA!

BUT THE OTHER 102% (I'M BAD AT MATH) IS JUST TO SAY HNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGHHHHH AND ALSO ALSO LOL DANNY. DANNY. I JUST WANT TO KNOW HOW YOU PICTURED THINGS IN YOUR MIND. YOU ARE RIDING THE FOUR-WHEELER. YOU WANT STEVE TO HOP ON. BUT THE ONLY ROOM FOR HIM TO HOP ON IS BEHIND YOU. AND THE ONLY THING HE CAN GRAB ONTO TO KEEP FROM FALLING OFF IS YOUR WAIST. EITHER YOU DIDN'T THINK THIS THROUGH, OR YOU HAVE A DEEP SEATED PUN NEED FOR STEVE'S HIPS AGAINST YOURS.

Math = shit. Logics, though? Perfectly sound. *dusts knuckles*

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

djfdfdsjfhsdjkf CLEARLY HE HAS BEEN TRYING TO ENGINEER SOME HIM AND STEVE BUMP-AND-GRIND FOR SOME TIME NOW. ALAS, STEVE ALWAYS WANTS TO RUN OFF LIKE AN ASSHOLE, IT'S SUCH A PROBLEM.

ALSO, WE TOTALLY DO MATH THE SAME WAY :D

[seeingrightly.livejournal.com]

I'm still kind of waiting for Mark Dacascos to say THE SECRET INGREDIENT IS ME KILLING YOUR FAMILY

OKAY, SERIOUSLY, I AM STILL WAITING FOR HIM TO DO A BACKFLIP AND SHOUT FRESH CUT BLOWFISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OR SOMETHING EVERY TIME HE'S ONSCREEN



SERIOUSLY THOUGH

[fic-kitty.livejournal.com]

YOU WIN FOREVER FOR EMBEDDING.

[lamardeuse.livejournal.com]

I WOULD LOVE TO CONTRIBUTE SOMETHING BRILLIANT TO THIS POST BUT ALL I CAN SAY IS GUHHHHHHHHH.

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

I THINK WE'RE ALL PRETTY MUCH THERE WITH YOU BB :D

[robanybody.livejournal.com]

THE SECRET INGREDIENT IS ME KILLING YOUR FAMILY

HOW HAVE THEY NOT MADE THAT JOKE YET? That would be the best joke of ALL MOTHERFUCKING TIME and they have not made it yet.

[gyzym.livejournal.com]

I KNOW. I KNOW. I KEEP WAITING FOR IT, EVERY WEEK, THEY USED SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND THIS WEEK, IT'S NOT LIKE THEY'RE ~ABOVE~ IT, WHERE. IS. MY. JOKE.

[taurenova.livejournal.com]

I think possibly it's a good thing that I only recently found out about Iron Chef via Charlie Brooker's excellent You Have Been Watching - which means I haven't really watched it - otherwise I would probably have the same problem that you Americans seem to be having re: Wo Fat.

(I mean, I had heard of Iron Chef, natch, I have many friends in t'US but I had never sought it out.)

Also Steve McGarrett as Inigo just amuses me on so many levels. So. Many. Levels.

[chaoticallyclev.livejournal.com]

what does it say about my life that I have this picture ready and available for exactly this purpose?
