Those of you who've been around a while might remember my Mustachioed Pistachio and friends posts from a while ago. Well, there's pretty much nobody more awesome than [livejournal.com profile] subtle__sarcasm right now, because look what she drew:





I should probably hire her to do the illustrations when I get around to writing that series, as long as she'll work for love and glitter, because that is an amazing representation, and she even has him saying what I said he'd say.

That has pretty much put me in a fantabulous mood even though it's six-thirty in the morning, I haven't slept, they are predicting another storm just as bad as the last one for tomorrow, and [livejournal.com profile] catalyst2 passed along some less than awesome news about the premiere date of season two of Dexter.



Based on a promo poster for season two being sold on Ebay, it's not premiering until December 21st. WTF. Seriously. I know it must take a while to make something filled with as much awesome as Dexter is, but a year? THAT IS SO LONG. I guess I will be re-watching season one and reading as much fanfic as I can get my hands on. And maybe writing it. Because I have this Brian/Dexter AU stuck in my head that will not go away. But it would be long. And I have zero attention span.

Ok, I know by now when I say 'Black Donnellys friending meme' you are all collectively rolling your eyes, but I keep getting comments on that thing and it amazes me, so I pimped it again and you guys should go check out all the new people on there and make more friends. Maybe you will get as lucky as I did and find someone who leaves you comment porn on the same night the show premieres. Yeah, that's my not-so-subtle way of poking you guys to go read [livejournal.com profile] ubi_es_calem's Tommy/Kevin-ish comment porns which are amazing.

And for those of you who are into such things: MOST AMAZING SPN FANVID EVER. - originally linked by [livejournal.com profile] lokiie who basically wins link of the year. It's Wincest for real. I mean. If I didn't know beforehand that it was manipped, I seriously would have thought this girl got her hands on raw footage of Jensen and Jared.

And [livejournal.com profile] stego is back, which tops off my whole week month year life.

DECEMBER 21ST?!

I can't wait that long.

[identity profile] quarterturn.livejournal.com 2007-02-27 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
I KNOW. [livejournal.com profile] anniemoon thinks it may be wrong, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. September is long enough, Showtime, don't make me get testy with you.

DECEMBER 21ST!!!! WTF!

guess i'll have, to, like, write a sequel to my dexter/spn crossover, after all, just to keep me going. :(

[livejournal.com profile] anniemoon thinks it may be wrong, so here's hoping. But uh, you know. Even if it airs earlier, you should probably still write that Dexter/SPN crossover. Because I say so.

[identity profile] mytimehaspassed.livejournal.com 2007-02-27 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
i already wrote one (http://theyscreamofyou.livejournal.com/11287.html), i'd just be writing a sequel. OR! a completely different one, but i'd definitely have to, like, watch all the episodes of dexter again, because i haven't seen it in a loooong time. <333

*saves to read soon* I really need to get caught up on the Dexter fic available, because I was avoiding it for months. I just got caught up like three days ago, I had been putting off watching the last few episodes because I didn't want it to be over. :(

[identity profile] mytimehaspassed.livejournal.com 2007-02-27 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
i loved and hated the ending at the same time. which is kinda why i wrote that fic, but there's definite last episode spoilers there.

[identity profile] quarterturn.livejournal.com 2007-02-28 10:44 am (UTC)(link)
I've seen all the episodes, but it wasn't until just in the past few days that I saw them. I kind of already knew what happened because I'm terrible at not staying away from spoilers, but I had half-convinced myself that I was just reading into things and Brian didn't actually die. I was v. v. disappointed about that. They could have done so much if they'd kept him alive, even if they wrote him off the show. I guess in a way I can understand it, since they probably wanted to drive home the fact that Dexter has no emotions and therefore wouldn't be attached to Brian enough to let him live for emotional reasons, but still. Have you read the book? I'll put this next bit in white just in case you haven't and don't want to be spoiled:

[identity profile] mytimehaspassed.livejournal.com 2007-02-28 04:13 pm (UTC)(link)
i haven't read the book, but i read, like, two sentences of it and realized i hated how he wrote. so, i'm not going to read any parts of the book at all. BUT, i would have LOVED for brian/rudy to stay on, just for the chance that he could come back any time and bait dexter into having incestous sex. but i thought that was the only time dexter WAS emotional, when he was killing brian/rudy. i mean, he sort of cried, right?

i don't mind being spoiled, though, what did the show NOT take from the book?

I'm cautiously thinking the eBay poster (which seems to have been removed or already sold, since I can't find it on a search) was photoshopped. It just doesn't make sense to me that Showtime would screw over one of its most popular and critically acclaimed shows by premiering the second season right before the holidays, when nobody's watching much TV, and moving it to Friday nights rather than keeping it on its Sunday night home. Plus, the second season hasn't even started filming, so I find it hard to believe that promo posters have already been printed. Something just doesn't ring quite right to me with this.

[identity profile] quarterturn.livejournal.com 2007-02-27 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
The link for it is here (http://cgi.ebay.com/OFFICIAL-SHOWTIME-DEXTER-SEASON-2-POSTER-27-x-40-NEW_W0QQitemZ230089103582QQihZ013QQcategoryZ18837QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item230089103582#ebayphotohosting), and you're right, it very well could be photoshopped. I seriously hope so. December does seem like a really odd time to be starting a new season; if anything, I would assume they'd start it in January if they weren't going for a fall premiere.

The Mustachioed Pistachio is the BEST THING EVER!!! :D You for the win! \o/

Also, I'm not going to do the friending meme, because I just got my damn list trimmed down to something manageable, but I did watch The Black Donnellys last night and was very intrigued! It was so good! So here's hoping it makes it! :D

[identity profile] quarterturn.livejournal.com 2007-02-27 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Yay, me for the win! :D

No worries, I know how overwhelming the flist can get sometimes, especially when you have real life to contend with. Plus, it just means I get more of you to myself. :D

[identity profile] such-jaunt.livejournal.com 2007-02-27 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
UM firstly Mr Mustachioed Pistachio!! OMFG awesome :D You SO need to write that, and his buddy Recon Pecan needs illustrating aswell! LMAO Seriously i would definitley buy a copy :D

And i thought i was crazy with my sleep patterns, "dear jess, i miss you, love your bed" ;)
No not more storms :(

*goes to recheck the meme*

Loving the wincest vid aswell :)

[identity profile] quarterturn.livejournal.com 2007-02-27 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL I so want to write it but it would probably have to be an adult book masquerading as a kid's book because I don't know if I could keep it completely clean. :D It would be like, "And then The Mustachioed Pistachio saw another pistachio that was looking damn fine and there was much boy-on-boy pistachio-on-pistachio lovin'."

"Dear bed, I miss you, too. Let's hook up. Soon."

And that is why you need to write it ;) lol

*goes to almost all the links*

Hee, you should try to get all your flisters to draw their own versions of the Mustachioed Pistachio! I would be verrreh amused. And then you could put them all into one post. Hee! \o/

[identity profile] quarterturn.livejournal.com 2007-02-27 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
DUDE that is such a good idea! Now if only there was some way to force prod people into participating... :D

[identity profile] subtle--sarcasm.livejournal.com 2007-02-28 12:00 am (UTC)(link)
That is an awesome idea!!! We'll have the Mustachioed Pistachio_lims! Or something XD XD

Your icon wins at life btw.

*giggles like a little girl*

DECEMBER 21ST?? SERIOUSLY? I mean I get that they need time to make a show this awesome but DECEMBER????

[identity profile] quarterturn.livejournal.com 2007-02-28 10:45 am (UTC)(link)
I really hope that [livejournal.com profile] anniemoon is correct; she mentioned above that it might be photoshopped, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. If that is the real premiere date, it would mean just a little over a year between seasons. That is insane.

[identity profile] subtle--sarcasm.livejournal.com 2007-02-28 12:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh god, that would be a glimpse of hope. More than a year between seasons would indeed be insane, why would they possibly take that long?
Icon love btw!

Ha ha ha, that comic is awesome. I'm picturing this mustachioed pistachio sitting in a leather armchair by a fire, swirlign a glass of brandy while muttering "stocks and bonds, stocks and bonds"

Really? Dexter 21st? That's so looooooooong. *whines*

Wow...I think that fanvid melted my brain!

[identity profile] quarterturn.livejournal.com 2007-02-28 10:46 am (UTC)(link)
LMAO "stocks and bonds, stocks and bonds." He's a detective in my imagination, but maybe he was a banker/stock broker in a former life. :D

[identity profile] cordeaux.livejournal.com 2007-02-28 08:46 am (UTC)(link)
I honestly reckon you're going to make your millions with The Mustachioed Pistachio and Recon Pecan and damnit, 'The Blind Date' because seriously, cutest and most cleaver thing ever. XD
Love it.

And damn.. DAMN. That fan vid is so so so amazing. Holy.. That very last scene, and the kissing and and, WHY ARE SOME PEOPLE SO TALENTED. Awesome.

[identity profile] quarterturn.livejournal.com 2007-02-28 10:48 am (UTC)(link)
I sure hope so! You better believe that if I do make millions with it, my first act as a millionaire will be to pay Jensen and Jared to make out for me and a small group of friends. ;)

I KNOW. I just. I can't even being to imagine how the hell she accomplished that. It boggles my mind in the best way possible.
