[Picture is the three covers of the audio-books "Rivers of London", "Moon Over Soho" and "Whispers Underground" by Ben Aaronovitch. They all look like they have a bunch of black and white objects in a huge pile in the bottom of each picture, with red ribbons over them.]

I fucking love these (audio) books. Kobna Holdbrook-Smith brings Ben Aaronovitch's characters to life so brilliantly, I'm worried that any TV/film adaptation won't live up to my expectations. I saw some casting suggestions on Tumblr which made me angry because they felt so wrong*.

I don't think I've been this passionate about a book series before and I'm a little worried I'm going to turn into one of those obsessive super fans. [sad face emoticon]

*(Richard Armitage is waaaay to young to play Nightingale, Mark Gatiss or Peter Capaldi would be my choice and not because of the Doctor Who connections, in my head and the way Holdbrook Smith reads Nightingale makes me think of a cross between Mycroft Holmes and Malcolm Tucker. Plus, both look great in a three piece suit.

[Picture is the Japanese actor/musician/idol Gackt. He is a man with pale skin and pale pink lips, delicate facial features, short, wavy dark hair, and wearing blue-colored eye contacts, silver earrings, elaborate silver rings around his fingers, a necklace, a bracelet and a white shirt and a dark blue piece of clothing over the shirt. He looks elegant and beautiful, in a sort of unattainable way. The fandom is marked as "The Mortal Instruments".]

I wish Gackt had been cast as Magnus Bane. The fandom's reactions would have been HILARIOUS.

[Picture is the actress Clémence Poésy playing Fleur Delacour from the Harry Potter movies. She is a young woman with light skin, light eyes and long blonde hair pulled back. She is wearing a silver jacket and wielding a wooden wand, looking determined.]

I still can't believe that she was cast as Fleur.

"Due to her part-Veela heritage, Fleur was a breathtakingly beautiful witch..." "Her beauty "usually dimmed everyone else by comparison...""

"Veela's "looks and especially their dance are magically seductive to almost all male beings..." (I know she's only a quarter Veela...)

She's not nearly hideous but not nearly beautiful enough to play Fleur.

[Picture is the player-controlled character of the videogame "Journey". The character is an apparently humanoid figure wearing a huge maroon red robe with golden geometrical trims and a geometrical scarf with glowing sylphs. They are also wearing maroon red pants. Beneath the robe's cowl, there is only a pair of bright, maybe light yellow eyes shining on a dark shroud in complete darkness. The figure is standing on a dune in a desert, with the sun shining behind floating sand and a bright light in the distance, possibly on the top of a mountain or a huge structure.]

I sometimes have panic attacks or bouts of depression. I carry a plushie of this guy wherever I go. ...Yes, even at work. I'm walking around a grocery store with this guy in my pocket.

Secret because: I am way too old to be carrying around a plushie.

[Picture is the actress Claire Danes playing Carrie Mathison from the TV show "Homeland". She is a woman with light skin and long blonde hair. She has gray eyes and is staring at the viewer.]

I've never been able to watch this show because her crazy-eyed stare and twitchiness make me really nervous for some reason.

[Picture is Motaro from the "Mortal Kombat" videogame series, and from the movie "Mortal Kombat: Annihilation", as portrayed by Deron McBee. He is a sort of centaur like creature, the upper half of a male human and a brown quadruped body below that. He has a whip-like dark tail. The animal part is missing pretty much only the neck and the head. The male part has light tanned skin, short brown hair and the curved gray horns of a ram growing out the sides of his head.]

Not secret: I mercilessly shame furries and bronies.

Secret: After all these years I still find Motaro impossibly hot. (Especially the movie version.) I get off to thinking about him using a violent fuck fatality on me. I envision that he has a horse cock. Understanding why this is a secret now?

Not only am I a hypocrite, but that movie was awful.

[Picture is the silhouettes of the cast from the movie "Pacific Rim". It has some text below, saying "We? believed in each other."]

It pisses me off that so many 'crossover' fics for this fandom are 'Fusion Alternate Universes' starring characters from other fandoms as Jaeger pilots. I wanna read about these awesome motherfuckers and their sexy robots rocking the shit out of other universes.

[Picture is the Jaeger/giant robot/mecha called Gipsy Danger from the movie "Pacific Rim". It is made of many metallic, blue plates, with some black parts in the joints and spine and some red highlights.]

If you call Gipsy 'he' I won't read your fic. "She", "it" or Get The Fuck Out.

[Picture is a screen-capture of the upcoming TV show "Reign", about the early years of Mary, Queen of Scots, in 1557 France. It shows some noble-class persons standing somewhere outdoors and looking like they are waiting for something.]

I really look towards this show, mostly because I hope it will do justice to Catherine de Medicis.

It's a CW show and she already has a bad reputation.

French History is going to be ravished like never seen since Alexandre Dumas.

[Picture is George Oscar "Gob" Bluth II and Michael Bluth from the TV/internet show "Arrested Development". They are both men with light skin and short brown hair. One of them is wearing a blue polo shirt and the other a brown polo shirt. They are standing somewhere indoors, with pale pink wallpapers on the walls.]

I'm convinced G.O.B. is a little bit in love with Michael. And not in a brotherly way.

[Picture is a color photograph and a black and white photograph (with her eyes painted an intense blue) of the actress Scottie Thompson, and a picture of Castiel as portrayed by Misha Collins from the TV show "Supernatural" below. Scottie has light skin, light blue eyes and medium-length dark blonde hair. Misha has light skin, blue eyes? and short dark hair. He is frowning in the picture. Scottie looks pretty neutral, almost but not quite smiling, on both of her pictures.]

Different fancasts for femme!Cas make me mad.

Secret because: Nerdrage over headcanon is SOO not cute.

Oh my God stop looking at me like that, Cas, I cast a hottie as you. (She's Jeanne from NCIS by the way, guys.)

[Picture is the actor Henry Cavill as Napoleon Solo from the upcoming movie "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." He is a man with light olive skin, grayish blue eyes, a light mustache and beard and short, wavy black hair. He is wearing a black shirt, a blue tartan tie and a bluish gray vest. He is pulling at his tie with one hand and giving the viewer a serious look.]

"Adaptations are the devil," she says to all and sundry, privately convinced he will be a pretty much perfect Napoleon Solo.

Bonus secret: I don't know who Armie Hammer is but I am deeply suspicious. Google says he's 6'5. How can a really tall dude be Illya?

[Picture is the musician Patrick Stump from the musical group "Fall Out Boy". He is a man with light skin, short brown hair, brown or hazel eyes and wearing a dark blueish green tie, a white shirt and a dark jacket or blazer.]

While I love his work with Fall Out Boy (Save Rock n' Roll is a really good album and my favorite from them), I think his solo music is ten times better and I wish he produced more music in that period.

Also he is super pretty and an amazing singer.

I think this is a repeat but it takes less time to type this up than to go and check.
