THY MOTHER DOTH BE A HAMSTER AND THY FATHER DOTH SMELL OF ELDERBERRIES. 'TIS THY TURN.

[vetinarimithos.livejournal.com]

Faaaa. Faaaaaaa. FAAAAAAAAA. You're doing just what Ayn Rand wants you to do! You're playing into her hands! AND THAT IS SAYING SOMETHING. IT'S ALSO ABSURDLY SAD.
OH SWEET MOTHER OF SCHNEIZEL, YOU'RE RIGHT. WHAT CAN WE DO TO STOP IT?
VERILY. PRAY TELL, WHAT WAS THY RELATIONSHIP TO THE PHARAOH?
SO THOU DOTH BE TEMPTED TO ABANDON THE GLORY AND THE DREAM OF SEXY ICONS FOR THE SHORT-TERM THRILL OF POWER. VERILY, THOU ART BECOMING MORE OF AYN RAND'S HERO WITH EVERY PASSING DAY.

FOR ONE AS DULL AS PETER KEATING, THOU ART RATHER AMUSING I DARESAY.

[norikosama.livejournal.com]

But I don't think of you. IF IT'S ENOUGH FOR THE IDIOTS AT MY SCHOOL TO RECOGNIZE, THEN IT'S PRETTY DAMN OBVIOUS.
WE EITHER STOP BEING BOT3FF'S OR BE NICE TO EACH OTHER. IT'S HORRIFYING EITHER WAY, REALLY.
ADVISOR. I ADVISED HE BUILDETH A PYRAMID FOR IT WOULD BRINGETH HIM FAME. IT WAS A JOKE, UNTIL MY PREDICTIONS BECAMETH TRUE.
THE TERROR OF THUNDERTHIGHS IS NO SHORT-TERM THRILL, ELSIE. CONTRARIWISE, TO THOUST IT ART LONG-TERM.

THOU THINKEST I DOTH BE LESS DULL THAN TOOHEY, THEN?

[vetinarimithos.livejournal.com]

Oh, ouch. Words hurt, Fa. NO KIDDING. I ALWAYS KNEW RAND FAILED AT SUBTLETY, BUT THIS IS A NEW LOW.
IF WE WERE NICE TO EACH OTHER, WE'D STOP BEING BASTARDS; IF WE CEASED TO BE BOT3FFS, WE'D NEVER HAVE FUN AGAIN. I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M SAYING THIS, BUT I THINK OUR ONLY CHOICE IS TO BE DRAGGED, KICKING AND SCREAMING, INTO AYN RAND'S VISION OF THE FUTURE.
HOW SNEAKY OF THOU. VERILY, THOU WERT A BASTARD EVEN IN THE AGE OF THE PHARAOHS.
AND YET, IT CANNOT HOLD A CANDLE TO THE MIGHT OF SEXY ICONS. TO PARAPHRASE THE GREAT BASTARD AND RENAISSANCE MAN NICCOLO MACHIAVELLI, 'TIS SAFEST TO BE FEARED AND LOVED IN EQUAL MEASURE.

NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[norikosama.livejournal.com]

You should know that better than anyone else. HAHAHA. TRUE, TOO TRUE.
DAMN HER. WHY DID SHE HAVE TO MAKE HER VISION OF THE FUTURE SO ENTERTAINING.
MY ROOTS GROWETH DEEP. I PLACED AN ASP INTO CLEOPATRA'S HANDS.
BUT YOU'LL ALWAYS LOVE ME IN YOUR OWN, MASOCHISTIC WAY. AND YOU'LL ALWAYS FEAR ME FOR THUNDERTHIGHS. GOD DAMN IT, MACHIAVELLI WAS A RANDIST TOO. WE'VE BEEN HAD!

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[norikosama.livejournal.com]

Oh, and when you're done, you can run over to my icon comm and snag yourself some Fountainhead icons I made just for you.

...Yeah, I couldn't find any good pictures of Ellsworth. If you find any, though, I'll pretty much do the best I can with black and white photos.
Which would be not good at all lol. /shot

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[vetinarimithos.livejournal.com]

FA.

I THINK I LOVE YOU.

IN A PURELY PLATONIC, NON-RANDIAN WAY.

BUT OH MY GOD A;SDLGH;ALSDKHGLASD;HG

AND THAT ROARK/DOMINIQUE ICON IS SO FUCKING GORGEOUS. ASLDKGH;

Eeeee, thanks for the offer! I've got the movie on my laptop, so I could totally take some screencaps if you need them~

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[norikosama.livejournal.com]

OH, IT'S NOT POSSIBLE TO LOVE ME IN A PLATONIC, NON-RANDIAN WAY. NOT WITH YOU, AT LEAST.

I wanted to do Atlas Shrugged, but I got lazy... and there weren't enough pictures. /shot

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[vetinarimithos.livejournal.com]

...IS THAT A COMPLIMENT? I'LL TAKE THAT AS A COMPLIMENT.

Uh, Fa? I took SIX pictures of Toohey. OBSESSED, ME?

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[norikosama.livejournal.com]

YEAH, WHY NOT.

THESE ARE MADE OF SERIOUS SUCK. WHY WOULD YOU EVEN WANT THEM.

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. I LOVE THEM! AND YOU EVEN MADE ONE FOR EACH OF THE SCREENCAPS! AALSDHGL; YOU GLORIOUS BASTARD, YOU~

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[norikosama.livejournal.com]

HOLY SHAT

THAT IS A LOT OF KEYBOARD SMASHING

IT JUST NEVER ENDS WITH YOU DOES IT

OH, AND IF THIS GUY IS TOOHEY, THEN I MIGHT JUST HAVE TO WATCH THIS SHITASTIC MOVIE. STILL BUMMED ABOUT MIKE AND STEVE THOUGH.

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[vetinarimithos.livejournal.com]

YOU DESERVED IT! ASLDKGH;ASHG;LK THEY'RE ALL SO AMAZING. /DIES

HE'S AN INCREDIBLE TOOHEY. THE MOVIE'S ROARK IS PRETTY FAIL-TASTIC AND ITS WYNAND IS A DWEEB, BUT AT LEAST IT GOT TOOHEY EXACTLY RIGHT.

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[norikosama.livejournal.com]

AND THERE YOU GO AGAIN WITH THE KEYBOARD SMASHING.

TO YOUTUBE I SHALL GO. I WATCHED THE PART WHERE DOMINIQUE SLAPS ROARK WITH HER WHIP OF INDIGNATION.
THE GUY LOOKS LIKE A TOOHEY, ANYWAY. I DON'T THINK ANYONE ELSE COULD HAVE BEEN HIM, AT LEAST AS FAR AS APPEARANCES GO.

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[vetinarimithos.livejournal.com]

I CAN'T HELP IT. I'M NORMALLY MORE CONTROLLED, BUT YOUR ICONS HAVE UNLEASHED THE KEYBOARD-SMASHING BEAST WITHIN ME.

THAT'S THE BEST PART OF THE ENTIRE MOVIE, FOR SERIOUS. THEIR EXPRESSIONS ARE PRICELESS.
SO TRUE. SO, SO TRUE.

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[norikosama.livejournal.com]

NORMALLY, THOU ART. BUT HE'S SUCH A MAGNIFICENT-LOOKING TOOHEY, SO...

/SLAP!
I WAS LAUGHING THE WHOLE TIME SHE RODE BACK TO HER MANSION.
AND I'M TRYING TO WATCH THE MOVIE ON YOUTUBE. WTF HAPPENED TO HENRY CAMERON? I IMAGINED SOME OLD, FAT GUY. OH WELL, AT LEAST NEAL IS PRETTY MUCH WHAT I IMAGINED DOMINIQUE TO BE. AND THE PETER IS PRETTY OK.

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[vetinarimithos.livejournal.com]

QUITE SO. HE IS A STUNNING TOOHEY, TO BE SURE: HE OOZES BASTARDRY OUT OF EVERY PORE.

/SLAPPED!
I KNOW, RIGHT? IT'S A DOWNRIGHT EPIC SCENE; YOU KNOW IT IS.
THEY TURNED CAMERON INTO A SOBBING, WEAK, DODDERING OLD MAN. I'D BE MAD ABOUT IT IF I'D CARED ABOUT HIM TO BEGIN WITH. BUT YES, THEY AT LEAST GOT DOMINIQUE AND PETER RIGHT. I ACTUALLY LOVE NEAL'S PERFORMANCE: HER DOMINIQUE IS BOTH TORMENTED AND CRAZY~

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[norikosama.livejournal.com]

ASKLSETJ; HE'S GOT TO BE THE LEAST DULL TOOHEY I'VE EVER SEEN
OUT OF EVERY PORE? MORE LIKE OUT OF EVERY SECOND, LINE, AND ACTION

/RIDES AWAY ON HORSE
ASIDE FROM TOOHEY'S FACE AFTER THE "BUT I DON'T THINK OF YOU", IT'S PRETTY MUCH THE GREATEST THING EVER.
BUT NOT FAT OR DRUNK OR DISORDERLY. DAMN. OH WELL, AT LEAST DOMINIQUE, PETER, AND TOOHEY ARE PERFECT.
KNOWING RAND, TORMENTED AND CRAZY IS PROBABLY JUST WHAT SHE WAS AIMING FOR.

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[vetinarimithos.livejournal.com]

HE'S SIMPLY INCREDIBLE. I LOVE HIM SO MUCH.
CLOSE ENOUGH! I TOLD YOU HE WAS AN INSPIRATION TO BASTARDS EVERYWHERE~

/GLARES AFTER YOU
I DUNNO, I THOUGHT HE SEEMED A BIT TOO MOPEY THERE. OF COURSE, HE MORE THAN MADE UP FOR IT WITH EVERY ONE OF HIS LINES.
TRUE ENOUGH! DOMINIQUE, PETER, AND TOOHEY WERE PRETTY MUCH THE ONLY CHARACTERS I CARED ABOUT, ANYWAY.
I'VE ALWAYS THOUGHT THERE WAS SOMETHING VERY MARY SUE-ISH ABOUT DOMINIQUE (AND DAGNY, FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH). YOU'RE PROBABLY RIGHT. WOE.

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[norikosama.livejournal.com]

PRETTY MUCH JUST THE FILM TOOHEY. THE BOOK TOOHEY IS STILL BORING ME AND I'M PAGE 584.

/MUAHAHA
REALLY? I LOVED THE MOPEY-NESS. IT WAS PROBABLY THE MOST EMOTION SHOWN IN THE ENTIRE MOVIE.
B-BUT WHAT ABOUT MIKE AND STEVE? I WOULD PERSONALLY LIKE TO SEE MIKE RUNNING AROUND CALLING GARY COOPER "RED" AND STEVE JUMPING OUT FROM NOWHERE WITH A GUN WHILE NEEDLESSLY MELODRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS IN THE BACKGROUND.
DOMINIQUE IS MORE OF A MARY SUE TO ME THAN DAGNY. I NEVER REALLY THOUGHT OF DAGNY AS BEING BEAUTIFUL, JUST STICK-THIN TO A POINT OF UNATTRACTIVENESS; CONTRARIWISE, RAND SEEMS TO BE CONTINUALLY FEEDING US HOW COLDLY PERFECT AND BEAUTIFUL DOMINIQUE IS.

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[vetinarimithos.livejournal.com]

LIES. MAYBE YOU'LL LIKE HIM MORE WHEN YOU GET CLOSER TO THE END? /SHOT

/SEETHES
AHAHA! SAD BUT TRUE. COOPER'S ROARK IS DISTURBINGLY WOODEN, ESPECIALLY SINCE BOOK!ROARK'S WHOLE SCHTICK IS THAT HE SHAMELESSLY LOVES LIFE IN ALL ITS ASPECTS.
THAT WOULD BE PRETTY HILARIOUS. THE SOUNDTRACK IS MELODRAMATIC ENOUGH AS IT IS~
I'M INCLINED TO AGREE. THE WHOLE MASOCHISM THING ASIDE, DOMINIQUE IS DESCRIBED AS ROARK'S PERFECT PRIESTESS, AND IT'S PRETTY CLEAR THAT RAND SAW HERSELF AS SOMETHING OF THAT SORT.

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[norikosama.livejournal.com]

I DON'T TELL LIES.

/BREAKS FIREPLACE AGAIN
I PERSONALLY THINK HE TALKS WAY TOO MUCH FOR ROARK. THIS IS ROARK WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE.
I KNOW, RIGHT? I MEAN, WYNAND'S JUST WALKING TO THE DOOR AND THE SOUNDTRACK IS SPILLING ITS MELODRAMATIC GUTS ALL OVER THE BACKGROUND.
PRIESTESS. I'LL NEVER GET THAT, REALLY. ALL I KNOW IS THAT DAGNY IS PERHAPS MORE OF A MASOCHIST THAN DOMINIQUE, IF BONDAGE IS ABOVE SELF-PROCLAIMED RAPE.

Re: NAY. THOU ART DULLER THAN MY SCIENCE TEACHER.

[vetinarimithos.livejournal.com]

OF COURSE NOT. YOU'RE AS HONEST AS GEORGE WASHINGTON.

/SENDS FAT ITALIAN TO FIX IT
VERY TRUE! ROARK BARELY SAYS TWO FULL SENTENCES UNTIL THE END OF THE BOOK, WHERE HE LAUNCHES INTO A 30-PAGE RANT.
IT'S ALMOST EMBARRASSING TO WATCH. IT'S EXACTLY THE KIND OF MUSIC THAT RICHARD HALLEY WOULD DESPISE.
RAND WAS A BIT UNHINGED: LAST I CHECKED, THE SUPREME EGOIST WAS NOT A GOD.
WAIT WAIT WAIT. BONDAGE?! OH SWEET GOD, WHY AM I NOT SURPRISED?

BUT IS NOT THY SCIENCE TEACHER PROFESSOR LLOYD?

[vetinarimithos.livejournal.com]

Oh, I do! The truth is a bitch~
I KIND OF WISH I KNEW. SHE MAY HAVE BEEN WRONG ABOUT A LOT, BUT THE STUFF SHE GOT RIGHT WAS SO VERY ENTERTAINING.
VERILY, THOU ACCELERATED THE FALL OF EGYPT. TH'ART A BASTARD INDEED.
...AUGH AUGH AUGH WHAT HAST THOU DONE?! HE WASN'T ACTUALLY A RANDIST, BUT AUGH. CANNOT UNSEE!

AYE. TIS BORING AND DULL. TIS AN ACCOMPLISHMENT TO NOT FALL ASLEEP.

[norikosama.livejournal.com]

The truth is always a bitch... a bitch to you.
I WONDER IF THAT INCLUDES THE MASOCHISM.
I TIRED OF BEING CLEOPATRA'S SERVANT. VERILY, I KILLETH HER AND ANTONY.
I ART NOT SURETH. DAMN YOU, THEN DON'T GO AROUND TALKING ABOUT LOVE-HATE. IT MAKES ME THINK OF RAND AND THEN IT'S THE VORTEX ALLLLLLL OVER AGAIN.

VERILY, I CANNOT BELIEVE IT.

[vetinarimithos.livejournal.com]

And yet, I face it with my head held high~
AHAHA OH GOD. I PRAY THAT IT DOESN'T.
I ART IMPRESSED BEYOND ALL REASON. VERILY, THY BASTARDRY IS A FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH.
AUUUUUGH. I SHALT PRETEND THIS PART OF THE CONVERSATION NEVER TOOK PLACE. VERILY, THE GOOD NICCOLO IS ROLLING IN HIS GRAVE.
