serai: A kiss between Casey Connor and Zeke Tyler (Tremble)
.
So I just started watching Penny Dreadful and holy fucking Goddess, WHEN did Josh Hartnett get so unbe-fucking-lievably SEXY? Seriously, the man has me drooling. When did this even happen??

I have to confess that I haven't really thought about him in a long time, as he fell off my radar with that painful Wicker Park atrocity. I knew he was out there making movies, but after that debacle, I'd kinda written him off. Which worked out just fine, because now I get to be LAID OUT FLAT by what he's turned into. He's not pretty anymore - now he's interesting, a quality worth far more in an actor. As Valentine Michael might say, he's growing into his own face. It's a wonderful thing to see.

Plus, you know, there's all that fucking SKIN.

Blessed Aphrodite - I never thought I'd get to see this guy's body. Did you notice how for a long while he almost never even took his shirt off for the camera? Now this series keeps throwing these lush sex scenes into the mix, and I'm lying in a pool of sliced tomatoes. (Because you better believe I'm watching this thing in bed.) Wow, his body is beautiful. And he's photographed beautifully, as well. He's definitely the sex object in this series. Considering how much this show has to do with hunger and vampires and devouring, it's almost impossible not to see those scenes as a decadent feast laid out for us. Here you go, ladies - hot, sweet, and juicy. Eat your fill. Oh, I get trembly just thinking about it.

And I'll tell you, I never thought I'd see Josh Hartnett taking another man. OH HOLY BITCH GODDESS. I was hyperventilating, I swear. So fucking hot, but of course the scene didn't go anywhere near far enough - they chickened out and left the guys shirtless and playing tonsil hockey. HEADDESK HEADDESK HEADDESK. But I have hopes we'll see more; I'm only on the sixth episode and I really don't see any indication that sex will be put on the back burner.

Oh my. Just...oh my. What an amazing, lovely, kindling surprise this is turning out to be. The fact that it's just a damn good series all around is icing on the cake, frankly, since I'm so dazzled by what's happened to him. So just assume that I'm rattling off a list of every word for "fucking HOT" you've ever heard. Because I am, at full volume.

Our Zekey Boy's all grown up.






P.S. Here is my theory about the brontosaurus: Ethan Chandler is a werewolf. SHUT UP RIGHT NOW. I don't want to hear if I'm right or not. I just wanted to say it, because I am So. Looking. Forward. to his transformation. So if I'm wrong, let me be disappointed on my own.

But I don't think I'm wrong.

ETA: HA. I knew it!

The Undying Lover

serai: A kiss between Casey Connor and Zeke Tyler (AlexBabe)
.

There’s a dark crimson stain on my fingers
And a taste copper-clean on my tongue
It glitters like ruby-red beads on my nails
And I stare, wondering where it came from

And I don’t really want to look at you
At your throat where my kiss left its sting
No, I don’t want to know of the change in you now
And how pale my love made your skin

The breeze flows like wine through the window
Naked I rise from the bed
To gaze out as I drink from the river of scent
That caresses me, calling my name

It is rich with a thick crowd of odors
Joy and hunger, sweet pain and despair
I slide into my clothes as my heart starts to race
Nostrils flared as I step towards the door

And I don’t really want to look at you
At the sheets where your life has soaked in
How they’ve tangled like ropes at the curve of your waist
And how pale my love made your skin

Now my boot heels devour the pavement
I stride slow, for the night is still young
In and out of the shadows, with a smile at the thought
Of how small and remote is the dawn

The wind whispers to me of a woman
Breathing soft as she sleeps somewhere near
Oh, I burn at the scent of her innocent flesh
Hidden by the dark waves of her hair

And I don’t really want to remember
This one moment is all I live in
I’d prefer to forget the dead tears in your eyes
And how pale my love made your skin



for jim, and then for alex.
