Officially, my favourite scene (as in rewatched it over five times, and still want to rewind and watch those few minutes again) is Horatio finding out that Archie was shot.

The whole "Is that your blood?" bit, where Horatio goes from relieved and glad that the battle is over, to worried about Archie, to horrified that he's so seriously injured, gets to me every time. Add to that, the way that Archie tries so hard to pretend that everything is fine, and it's no wonder that I love those few minutes. (Plus, they embrace. Sure, one of them has to be mortally wounded for them to do it, but it still happens.)

*sigh* I'm just wallowing in the doomed romance of it all...

Hornblower wallpaper...

Really, I wasn't looking for Hornblower stuff. I just followed iibnf's link to the Two Monks.

However, the Boys of 1800 wallpaper cracks me up. Also makes me wish I could use it, but I don't want to have to explain it at work (where everyone else's wallpaper is either the standard blank or the company logo) and mum has reclaimed her computer at home. Still, just the idea of using it makes me smirk.

I'm trying not to giggle at work

Read The Master Plan by lexluvsclark. I'm sure that Celli already rec'd this great taxfic entry, but it deserves a second rec.

The quality of available minions -- never that good to begin with -- seemed to be declining every year. Not once did they get to anywhere near the Machiavellian level of skill required by Lex's complex ideas, thus causing the failure of said plans on a disturbingly regular basis.

Something like a one-hundred-percent basis, to be precise.

And that just wasn't right.

That is my favourite line (that doesn't spoil the great fic). Seriously funny fic, so check it out.

Just try not to do it at work when people are watching you. If your sense of humour is anything like mine, it'll be hard to cover the smirk on your face. *g*
