le_russe_satanSince tonight my mind was on the Aubreyad, I suddenly remembered how I got sucked it into it.
So, 2003, winter, Russia, St.- Petersburg. I and eight other people who participated in a Russian slashfiction forum decide to meet up. After some food someone suggests a movie. Since we did not want to wait around, we bought tickets for the first available one.
Yes, that movie was 'Master and Commander'. In Russian. I fell in love. The moment the holidays were over and I went back to UK I stocked up on the books and went on a binge (and let me tell you for a non-native English speaker getting accustomed to all the naval terms was kind of harsh). I also made numerous vids, but only 2 survive to date.
Of course being a slasher and in a group of slashers caused quite a few hilarious comments to be uttered during the course of that fateful movie watching. The one I do remember happened when Jack has Hollom in his cabin and is telling him off. As some will remember Jack is not wearing a jacket and moves closer and closer to Hollom during the conversation. So one of my friends rather suddenly and loudly hisses:
'Oh, would you kiss him already?!'
That was so unexpected that we all dissolved into giggles and were afraid they'd kick us out of the cinema. XD
